About the Precor EFX 835 Elliptical
The EFX 835 is Precor's 800 Series elliptical with moving handlebars, the Converging CrossRamp and the P31 LED console. Pick it if you want a commercial elliptical that needs no outlet: it powers itself as you pedal. The ramp adjusts from 10 to 35 degrees and there are 20 resistance levels, so one machine covers a wide range of users.
Room and weight
Precor's product page lists 80 inches long, 28 inches wide and 67 inches tall, while one 2025 Precor brochure lists 86 inches long and 68 inches tall, so measure for the longer figure. It weighs 330 lb and is rated for users up to 350 lb. The pedal sits 8 inches off the floor at its lowest point.
Handles and console
Moving handlebars travel with the pedals, and fixed grips stay put for anyone who prefers to hold still. The P31 console has 15 workouts, incline and resistance buttons, and a status light that shows staff when service is due. A reading rack and mobile device charger are standard.
Compared with our other Precor ellipticals
The EFX 635 shares the ramp range, 20 resistance levels, 350 lb limit and self-powered P31 console, and weighs 323 lb. The EFX 685 adds a 16 inch touchscreen and needs a 120V/15A outlet.

Precor EFX 835 Elliptical questions
Does the EFX 835 need an outlet?
No. Precor lists it as self-powered, so the console runs as you pedal and you can place it away from a wall outlet.
How much floor space does it need?
Precor's product page lists 80 by 28 inches and 67 inches tall, but one 2025 Precor brochure lists 86 inches long. Plan for 86 by 28 inches to be safe.
What is the weight limit?
Precor rates it for users up to 350 lb (159 kg).
How does it compare with the EFX 635?
They share the 10 to 35 degree ramp, 20 resistance levels, moving handlebars, 350 lb limit and self-powered P31 console. The 835 is from Precor's 800 Series and weighs 330 lb; the 635 is from the 600 line and weighs 323 lb.
How does it compare with the EFX 685?
The EFX 685 adds a 16 inch touchscreen with Bluetooth headphone support, which means it needs a 120V/15A outlet. The 835 keeps the LED console and needs no power.
Can I use it without the moving arms?
Yes. Fixed grips sit beside the moving handlebars for anyone who wants to hold still while pedaling.
Can I put it in my home?
Yes. Precor's warranty covers 800 Series cardio in a home, with 1 year of labor instead of the 3 years for commercial use.
