Opinions please

Due to bursitis in my hip, and leg weakness caused by a spinal stenosis I am no longer able to ride a bicycle. I would like to try a recumbent trike. The only trike I can almost afford is the Sunseeker Eco-Tad. Less than any used trikes I see online. I have a penchant for buying the least expensive option and being disappointed with my purchase. The closest dealer with one in stock is 2-1/2 hours away, so no hope of test ride.
Is the Eco-Tad a reasonable option, or should I opt for an upright trike which I can get for a tenth of the price of the Eco Tad?
I really miss riding.
Thanks for your input.
