Do you have an elliptical treadmill?

Hello people, do you have an elliptical treadmill? When I was in the hospital last time, the rehabilitation nurse told me that the treadmill is not a good choice, but that this elliptical treadmill, is better for me. So I want to ask you have it anyone, have this elliptical treadmilll? Does it help you?

@lenka, I have a "Cubii seated elliptical" (https://www.cubii.com/products/cubii-jr) It's a seriously heavy bit of kit, but I've managed to get it under my desk. I rest my feet on it and can do a bit of exercise whilst I sit and type this. I can't get it to go all the way round, but just moving my feet back and forwards seems to help.

To warm up at PT he puts me on the "Octane Elliptical" machine and I like it. It has kind of a forward walking type of motion and seems good on the joints. There are handhold bars that I think you can do more with for arm strengthening or full body but I mostly concentrate on legs and balance. It is what he prefers people to use to warm up for PT. At home I have a good/medical stationary bike. I had a hip replacement two years ago do my PT is pretty split between working through those residual issues and MS ones.
