Honestly my husband loves the hard pounding that this thing gives.  I dont.  We actually returned it the first time because it smelled so bad.  It was a musty mildewy smell.  We got the second one and it smelled the same.  To me its unbearable but I wont be using it anyway.  My husband is going to try and tolerate the smell.  I am happy to change my review if the vendor would like to swap mine out for one that does not smell like mildew but I cant keep returning and purchasing it in the hopes that it is better.
