Does anyone have an elliptical machine at home?

I've tried rowing machines, but I prefer elliptical workouts.

 

I'm pretty sure I'll get one once I build up my emergency savings to a very healthy level and can pay cash for it.

I'm thinking of getting one, but wondering if I'll use it consistently enough and long-term enough to justify the cost. I could buy one for the cost of about 6 months at the gym I last had a membership at.

 

Elliptical owners, have your found it to be a good investment?

 

Something to consider is the cost of having it repaired if it does break at some point after you buy it. Would it be worth owning a broken eliptical machine?
