The Precor 9.27 and 9.23 are part of the renowned line of commercial fitness equipment designed for home gyms and professional fitness environments. Both machines are ellipticals that focus on enhancing cardiovascular workouts while providing low-impact benefits, making them suitable for users of all fitness levels.

The Precor 9.27 features a patented CrossRamp technology, allowing users to adjust the incline of the elliptical ramp while they move. This feature enhances workout versatility by enabling users to target different muscle groups, such as glutes, quadriceps, and hamstrings.
