I love my Peloton bike, but I wouldnt spend the $$ if you dont think you would use the programming.

I used to have a Sole treadmill that I liked a lot for long, inclined walks while watching TV on my own tablet. I moved and only have space for a bike in my new place.

I have a small-footprint treadmill with up to 14% incline. It can go under my desk or be pulled out and used with a bar if I want to go a bit faster.

The rehab therapist I worked with had me using ankle weights to build back strength, last week I pulled them out and paired them with the bike, worked pretty good.

I do like my off-brand sunny bike paired with the peloton app. I used to cycle a bunch during covid and really do enjoy the classes. But I don't love what lots of cycling classes does to my body. If I only had one piece of equipment it would definitely be the treadmill.
I also have a rower and it's nice but wouldnt' be my only thing.
My elliptical has been my least used equipment and I regret buying it.
It all boils down to what you enjoy and will stick with.

+1. The nice thing about the treadmill for mindless activity is that you can set the speed. With bikes and rowers I tend to get involved in the story and slack on the excercise.

Go old school with a Nordic Track ski machine. You can get one on FB Marketplace for less than $200, so if after a month you decide you hate it (there's a learning curve), you haven't wasted much money.

I wonder if you shouldn't just buy a day pass at a gym and try out a bunch of stuff, so you know what kind of equipment you like. Given that it's a pretty big investment I think you should really try it out first.
