The Gazelle Edge has received mostly positive reviews, “I absolutely love this glider! And for the price you cant beat it,” said one customer. Similar low-priced elliptical type machines cannot compare to the Gazelle Edge in terms of stability and durability. A full range of motion and a 5-function workout computer which logs speed, distance, time and calories burned comes with the easy-to-setup machine.
A foldable design for easy storage, non-skid foot platforms and steel frame make the Gazelle Edge a customer favorite. “After trying out about a dozen different elliptical exercisers in sporting stores, I eventually bought the Gazelle Edge. It is a great little exercise machine but does have some short comings,” said another customer. Accordingly, customers stress that the Gazelle Edge is not a replacement for traditional elliptical machines. Customers describe the on-board computer as “inadequate” and characterize the resistance training as “unnatural and unsatisfactory.” However, it is “perfect” for those customers who do not want to spend $1500 on a deluxe elliptical machine. characterize the resistance training as “unnatural and unsatisfactory.” However, it is “perfect” for those customers who do not want to spend $1500 on a deluxe elliptical machine.

Leapfrog Phonics Writing Desk – Interactive Learning
November 1st, 2018
Before youngsters learn to read, they need support in learning about the alphabet and phonics. LeapFrog has taken these educational concepts and combined them with interactive games and lessons, creating the Phonics Writing Desk. Children can choose between seven different activities on the writing desk based on their abilities. Younger learners can choose to hear the names of letters and the sounds they make, and then see how the letter is formed on the desk’s LCD screen, including both uppercase and lowercase letters. When the child feels ready, they can test their skills by selecting the ABCs or phonics quiz.
The LeapFrog Phonics Writing Desk also has a magic screen that only works with the special attached pen, so kids can practice writing letters or their name. Older children can use the writing desk to learn how letters are put together to form words and will enjoy the engaging Create-a-Word game. There is even an activity that introduces children to cursive handwriting! Parents and teachers alike have been surprised by how much time kids spend using its different functions, commenting on how younger children begin recognizing letters around the house after playing with the desk. It also has a two-level volume control, so adults aren’t distracted while the little ones learn. The Phonics Writing Desk from LeapFrog is recommended for ages 3 to 9 and is perfect for any young scholar.
