1. The arms and legs rotate together but you can certainly take your arms or legs off. I use it only for arms. 2. Pretty quiet I think. I listen to TV when I'm on it. 3. I'm 5'10" and I push the seat back a bit. Not sure about 4'10". The seat does not adjust up or down, only front to back. The arms won't be a problem but the legs may be a reach.

I watch tv while I walk on the Proform 790T. I have to turn up the tv volume a little, but not enough to bother people in a connecting room. It does get a little louder the faster you go, so if you plan on running on your treadmill you may have a problem.

I am 5' 10" and it works great for me. There is even extra height I could go to so I don't think you should have an issue. It is one of the better units.

Wouldn't want to use it next to a very light sleeper. I turn up the TV slightly when using it. I wish it was slightly quieter but do not think the noise would keep me from buying it.

I think it is comfortable. If you are very small it may be difficult to sit and reach the arms. I am 5' 4" and can just reach them. Anyone smaller may have to use the arms in a stationary position or not at all. I don't know how long it will last, but it is a sturdy machine. I've only had mine for about 8 months but it works like new. The only thing I've had to do is tighten the bolt on one arm. I think it's a good product for the price.

The speakers are inevitably tiny. You could either get a surround sound that is optic fibre capable, or adjust your sound to "good enough". Let me give you a run down of how audio works on the tv. Treble is your high notes, bass is your low notes, and mids is more highs for this certain tv. There is an option for bass boost, you will want that. One of the things I'm glad i did(i live alone) is buy a wireless headset. Razer, or turtle beach makes a very...very nice set. They are 100$+ because its a 7.1 surround wrapped around your head. So if you watch tv alone, its worth getting. Other than that, with the adjustments i explained to you, have at it. If you need anymore assistance let me know! :)

We are at the max cubic foot cooling specs for this AC. You, if it's an eight foot ceiling, are less than half what we are cooling. You should be ok. Be sure to read my comments about the compressor cooling hose being hot. Your smaller room may be easier to cool without insulating the one hose. I don't find the noise objectionable but it's a pretty big room and it's at the far end. It doesn't affect our hearing the tv programs. I haven't heard a window AC for many years, and they may have improved like everything else.

A wall-mounting adaptor is included. It is kinda tacky but easy to install. Be careful of the height when mounting it: it must be low enough so that short people can see the full face of the unit. The base unit cannot be seen easily (due to the angle of the face) by height-challenged users. Don't forget all the wiring that must accompany the unit...and the remotes, which also require AC power, etc. A comment on a question not asked: the recorded audio on this unit is theee pittts!

It doesn't sound loud to me.But if what you are cutting gets in a bind it might get loud.I think you should be able to watch TV OR have a conversation.I don't have a TV in my shop so I can't say for sure.If your hearing is better than mine it could be annoying.Won't hurt to try.

My wife uses it and sits with 3 feet of it. Some programs with quiet talking I notice that the TV audio must be higher than I need it.

Its a big bar with big sound. I have it hooked up to a 42' TV and its good. I dont think there would be an issue if the TV were smaller, just make sure it can hang out on the stand. One last tidbit, despite the pictures mine did not come with a remote control.

I got the cooling pads (bought two since they're cheap enough, in case one fails) and I just used it, as is, out of the box to prop the receiver. From the viewing area you can't even tell it sits at an angle. The lights give it a "that looks cool" effect. If I end up stacking another unit (the blu-ray player is in another area of the "entertainemnt center" (actually an old coffee table), I'll definitely take your advice! Thanks! PS, yes it's amusing how some complain about a $5 item that actually works (but maybe not the way they want).

1. You can use them separately, however the one not in use still rotates. In my Physical Therapy I have to use the hands only and while I don't use the pedals they still spin. 2. The unit is not loud. You can watch TV - I usually listen to music with headphones. 3. I am 5'4" and my husband is 6' and we can both use the bike. Nice wide seat. The seat can be re-positioned. I really love the bike.

It is not intolerable. Not as noises as my over the stove vent. I generally have the tv on while in the kitchen so I hardly notice it. The benefits outweigh any noise for me. It is not an issue. Just sounds like a fan.

I have a 55" Sharp Aquos on it and it worked out far better than I could have hoped for. The instructions say no more than a 20" TV and up to 60 pounds. I am quite certain they say that for liability reasons. My 55" is 47 pounds and it is quite sturdy on this table. My only concern would be if you have small children, or toddlers. You would better off mounting your television to the wall for their safety. My brand new 55" Television has an odd base with no swivel. Worse my sound bar was not only blocking the infrared remote, but was also blocking the bottom few inches of the screen. This table solved all my problems.

I'm getting this tv delivered on Tuesday, Dec. 2nd, 2008. This is going to seem huge compared to my 13 inch tv that's hooked up now. I'm glad that it's getting really good reviews. Is it hard to set up? Can I do it on my own? What length is the base? I'm planning on putting it on the table that my other tv is currently on. Would all I have to do is plug it in and connect it to my cable just like my tv is now? I'm getting this tv delivered on Tuesday, Dec. 2nd, 2008.

I don't know why it's loud. It doesn't seem loud to me. I use it while watching TV.
