I'm curious why it is so expensive though. Its works out to $36k paid over 3 years to own it.

Aren't most things overly expensive in the beginning, until the company can make enough profit to ramp up production? Tesla cars come to mind.
It looks expensive, and each machine is custom fitted to the users legs and also grows with the user. The market for it is really small to instantly lower the price.
Can you start a business to sell it for less and make a profit? If so you should. You will take the market. Capitalism is great.
