Resistance systemType of brake and how it is adjusted: magnetic via rotary knob (manual), magnetic via console (motorized) or induction for the finest gradation. Manufacturers also call induction ECB, eddy current or electromagnetic brake – even when “magnetic brake” is in the name; the motorized magnet is also called SMR or digital resistance. If the resistance adjusts itself during a workout (auto resistance, auto-follow, control via app), the adjustment is motorized – never “Magnetic, manual”.

Verdict

Pros & cons

Der Domyos EB Seat Connected ist ein halb liegender Heimtrainer mit Rückenlehne und motorischem Magnetwiderstand in 15 Stufen. Er läuft rund und leise und passt Menschen von 1,50 bis 2 m und bis 150 kg. Brustgurt und 5 Jahre Rahmengarantie sind solide Pluspunkte. Der Haken: keine Wattsteuerung, keine Wattanzeige, der Sitz lässt sich nur in der Höhe verstellen, und für harte Intervalle ist das 6-kg-Schwungrad zu leicht.

Pros

  • Bequeme Halbliegeposition mit Rückenlehne und Griffen am Sitz
  • Leiser, runder Lauf durch Riemenantrieb und Magnetbremse
  • Motorischer Widerstand in 15 Stufen per Taste an der Konsole
  • Brustgurt im Lieferumfang für genaue Pulsmessung
  • Freigegeben für 1,50 bis 2 m Körpergröße und bis 150 kg
  • 5 Jahre Rahmengarantie, Ersatzteile 10 Jahre lieferbar

Cons

  • Keine Wattsteuerung und keine Wattanzeige, Belastung hängt von der Trittfrequenz ab
  • 6-kg-Schwungrad wirkt bei hoher Intensität zu leicht
  • Sitz nur in der Höhe verstellbar, keine Längsverstellung
  • In Tests gelegentliche Bluetooth-Abbrüche mit Apps
  • Nicht klappbar, braucht dauerhaft 163 x 68 cm Stellfläche

Der Merach MR-S47B1 ist ein schwerer Heimtrainer mit Motorbremse und Tiefeinstieg, der laut Hersteller Menschen von 150 bis 200 cm und bis 130 kg trägt. Aus unserer Sicht passt er für Einsteiger und Ältere, die regelmäßig nach Gefühl trainieren. Der Haken: Wattwerte sind nur geschätzt, und ob Brustgurt und fremde Apps funktionieren, ist bisher nicht dokumentiert.

Pros

  • Körpergrößen von 150 bis 200 cm laut Hersteller
  • Tiefeinstieg erleichtert Älteren und in der Reha das Aufsteigen
  • Motorische Magnetbremse mit 16 Stufen, leise und ohne Abrieb
  • 33 kg Eigengewicht lässt stabilen Stand erwarten
  • Beleuchtetes LCD-Display und Tablet-Halter für Videos

Cons

  • Kein Ergometer, Wattwerte nur aus Stufe und Drehzahl geschätzt
  • Pulsmessung und Brustgurt-Empfang nicht dokumentiert
  • Nur Hersteller-App genannt, Widerstandssteuerung per App unbelegt
  • Noch keine unabhängigen Tests oder Langzeitberichte zur Haltbarkeit
