Is a peloton worth it?

Looking for some opinions on the peloton- I was an avid CrossFitter until I had my little girl (20months) but now I am back to work full time as a teacher I just cannot find time to fit in CrossFit classes anymore. I feel guilty when I only see my daughter for an hour each day as it is, without adding in missing some days for a CrossFit class. I'm usually in work for 7:30am so no time to drop DD at nursery and make a class either.

I've been doing the Fiit program at home for months and enjoyed it but now potentially looking to invest in a peloton for ease of being able to work out at home and wondering are they worth the investment? I'm not sure if I'd get bored of just spin classes so are the other offerings also worth it?

Thanks

Love it. Bike is really comfortable. Teachers are really good. So much beyond cycling. Amazing for mental health. Hugely helpful to maintain regular exercise with kids and work and so on. Genuinely fun. Would give up a lot of things before we cancelled the subscription so if you can afford it I would wholeheartedly recommend.

I got mine the end of feb. Have done 44 workouts (I was unwell for a week!) and started doing other stuff apart from the bike too. So barre classes, stretch ones, arms etc
I'm actually allergic to exercise and get severe hives - despite that, I still want to get on the bike every damn day Grin
Honestly I don't know what it is about it, but I'm a much nicer person for using it and it's addictive

I absolutely love mine. Got it at the beginning of lock down and use if religiously. I did love spinning before I got it but I really like all the other classes it offers, there’s a massive range and the instructors are excellent. I have a 2 month guest pass you can use if you want to just have a look at the options on the app before you commit.
