when using foot peddles, does the machine move

I have had no problems with the machine moving around. I use it on a carpeted floor for about 30-60 minutes at a time.

Probably not. There are rubber feet on the machine. If it does move, a sheet of the non slip drawer liner works

no, it moves when you press on the pedal. This is battery operated. Great for about a 2-4 year old. Any older child would get bored pretty quickly.

The speed is controlled with a little dial (with speeds 1-10), which is on the side of the motor. I'm not sure about compatibility with a foot pedal. I just know nothing about that.

I have not really tried it, but I think it dose move your legs without the need to push the pedals

Don't remember about the peddling - after a few dozen sessions, the metal on metal tensioner made so much noise I threw it out. Also, the counter quit after about two sessions and the whole unit crawled away from the chair when using on my carpeted floor. Piece of junk. Save your money.

Not on this peddler. I wear my FitBit while I peddle and it tracks the movement as steps, which is a great way to get in my steps during the day.

They actually move as you pedal. Each moves independently, so as one leg extends to push the pedal down, the pad on that side will pivot down slightly. At the same time, the opposite pad will pivot up slightly as your opposite knee bends on the upstroke.

my grandson was not big enough for his feet to drag. He has never gotten hurt with the peddles and this is the second spring/summer he has used it.

Yes the outside arms/handles move with the pedal. Its like an elliptical with a seat.

The machine can be peddled backwards but I am not sure about the electronic info. I don't pay attention.

The handle bar does not twist the way the peddles are positioned you make a twisting motion when stepping. The handles are steady and secure

Consumer Report, The machine comes with a Foot Control, to run the machine, if that is what you mean by foot pad. Thank you,

We have had no problems with foot pedal. We use hitch often, no issues. We are very pleased with it.

Yes, when you step onto the machine, you place your feet on the lowest bar and your ankles are between the two padded holders. The holders are tightened by a pin system. Pull the pin, the top holder falls tighter and the pin is replaced at the proper setting.

The handle bars always move - but you don't have to touch them to still peddle. Likewise you can only use the handle bars, and place your feet on fixed foot rests, and of course you can use both your feet and hands, or neither if like just sitting on a bike seat. In any case I'd recommend getting a slip on seat cushion pad - as the one that comes with the bike is not all that comfortable.

It is operated by foot pedal on the right side. It has to be held down to keep it moving forward.

I don't know if the model has been changed in that regard (I doubt it) but my wheels are grounded when I lift the deck. The treadmill moves very easily backwards or forwards and requires some twisting if if you need to *turn* as the wheels are straight.
