Awesome Multitasking! January 2, 2009 Kat (Manassas, VA) 19 out of 22 found this review helpful
I've read about some fitness gurus stating that "exercise should be pure and zenlike, not marred by distractions." Let me tell you, walking on a treadmill for a long period of time is boring and far from zen-like. I know that I love to use my laptop because, like the inventor, our tech jobs have invaded our home space. The pay is great but you can't sit at your desk (at home and work) for 12 hours a day and expect to stay in shape. This device allows you to have both. I'm not in the best shape (which is why this is a Christmas present) and I can go up to level 2 while fully using the laptop, and up to normal running speed when watching videos.
I've been in gyms off and on for the past 15 years of my life. It gets REALLY boring and there aren't enough mp3's out there to provide variety. I've changed my workout, changed my song list, watched the gym televisions with headline news, read articles in magazines I would normally not pick up, and spent the entire workout flipping pages on a book or holding it open to actually read the book. Magazines are boring and books usually don't work very well on the treadmill (and I've never mastered the small text/high movement aspect of running-reading).
When I am using the SurfShelf, I DO NOT FEEL LIKE I AM EXERCISING. I feel like I am having fun! I have a skinny little toddler and he does not have an exercise routine, he moves because it is fun to move and he stays naturally skinny. Why do we as adults have to make working out so painful and boring when we can get a low-impact workout surfing the web for an hour and have a great time with it? Think of all the teens who use instant messenger! OMG! Why not use instant messenger while walking? I'm sure we could get a few World of Warcraft guys out there to get into it!
And what about when my boss tells me that I need to log on from home for an entire evening after sitting at my desk for 8 hours? This is a reality for a LOT of people in my line of work where the line blurs between private time and office time. Many of us have home offices or bring our laptops (money makers) to the couch to continue working in the evening. Why not work on it while walking very slowly? I mean 1.0 is very slow on the treadmill, I've seen supermarket conveyor belts with more speed. At 1.0 you could get in a few miles over the course of several hours. I worked on a project where THREE of our engineers had heart attacks within a six month period. I have a very clear vision as to where this lifestyle leads and if I do not start taking care of my health, I will be that person being taken to the hospital in an ambulance.
This provides an alternative to folks who are on the internet for necessity or for entertainment.
You don't have to give up your productivity or enjoyment to get a little movement in your life...you can have both!
Perfect March 10, 2009 J. Davis (Los Angeles, CA) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Works perfectly. I use it on my Sole Treadmill with a Macbook Air and feel very safe with it. Customer service was also superb. My first order was lost by USPS and when I contacted SurfShelf they sent out a new one immediately.
Great idea for casual game playing or watching videos. December 3, 2008 Greg McLemore (Los Angeles, CA USA) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
The SurfShelf is a really great idea (for yourself or for others). It's new, fun, useful. When I first saw one in person I was quite impressed by how attractive it is due to its design and clear polycarb. The surf shelf is great not only for watching video on your laptop, but also for playing online games too. While I wouldn't use it for highly action oriented first-person-shooter games, it's fabulous for games like online scrabble or chess. It's also great for intermittent tasks such as waiting for incoming e-mail, or for mostly passive acttivities like watching stock quotes and news. I just found a few videos about it on YouTube, including one in which they pile over 50 pounds of exercise weights on the shelf to show how strong it is (impressive). The SurfShelf just came out, so if you give one as a gift it is likely the recipient would be seeing one for the first time. It's nice when gifts are fun, useful, and built from really high quality matierals.
What a great idea December 4, 2008 Stephanie Stewart (Pasadena, CA United States) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
OMG, I love this. As a busy mom Nap time is the only time I have to catch up on exercise, e-mail, TV etc. With the surf shelf I can do it all at once. When the little one is napping I get in my exercise, catch up on my favorite shows and get my e-mail read. LOVE THIS PRODUCT. Wish it had showed up a few years ago.
I love my surfshelf! January 14, 2009 N. Leonard (Los Angeles, CA United States) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I have been waiting for a product like this for so long! I have used my surfshelf almost every day since I got it. It is perfect for my home gym. I have a LifeFitness upright bike, but the surfshelf design/setup is flexible enough to fit almost any piece of equipment. My workouts fly by now, whether I'm catching up on email, or my favorite online content. This product is an essential addition to any home gym!
