    got the satori a few months back via the decathlon deal. for me its all i will need and is great value as it includes the mat. good resistance but noisy but this is not a problem for me as i use headphones and train in the garage.

    I just had a quick google youtube and the sound just seems to be a loud belt but not as loud as a washing machine lol

    I would be tempted with satori if they had it in stock
