Cross Training Questions

Can anyone recommend a cross trainer for around £300???

It will need random programs and i've heard ones with a braking system are essential, can anyone give me advice? I was going to purchase the reebok i-train blue one but have read reviews saying they are not very good. Ha ha, that make me smile ;-) I have just split up with my partner and have a 5year old who will be in bed I work 8-5.30 and cannot get to a gym unfortunately.

2. Surely the annual cost of gym membership is not much more and you will have a greater choice of machines to use for all round body exercise - and some social contact.
