Walking is still considered one of the most beneficial cardiovascular exercises for people of all ages, body types, and fitness levels. As a fundamental form of aerobic training, walking has numerous physical benefits for the heart, lungs, and circulatory system, while also increasing muscle tone and burning fat calories. Treadmills provide a convenient way to regularly exercise in all weather conditions in the comfort and safety of your own home. From beginners just starting an exercise regimen to advanced athletes looking to maintain their fitness level, anyone interested in getting and staying in shape can benefit greatly from regular use of a treadmill. Treadmills allow you to determine the pace, distance, and complexity of the workout based on your needs, all while watching television, talking on the telephone, or reading a magazine. Much easier on sensitive joints like the knees and hips, treadmill walking and running surfaces are typically long, padded platforms that allow ample room for a long stride and comfortable, low-impact walk or jog without the harsh contact of a concrete surface. While many different types, styles, and price ranges of treadmills exist, many of them offer unique features like a fold-up design for easy storage, an electronic display monitor showing speed, distance, workout time, incline level, and burned calories, and EKG grip pulses to monitor the heart rate while exercising. Regardless of the simple to complex features you may choose, treadmills offer an array of aerobic exercise opportunities that will provide long-lasting beneficial cardiovascular results without a commute to the gym or a jog in the rain.

 What I've been looking for September 25, 2006

I have wanted a treadmill for years, of course I didn't look all that hard and all I ever saw were the ones that sell for hundreds or thousands of dallars. I finally thought ok I'll find one I can make payments on, but I really don't care for all the wistles and bells, just walking, I can tell when I've walked twenty minutes. I found these here on amazon and the reveiws of this one looked good enought for me. Bought it and holy moly, this thing is great, fifteen to twenty minutes on this and I've had a GREAT work out, the machine is built very well, very sturdy, very easy to set up, great workmanship and design. And I could pay for it in one lump sum, great, go for it.....

I bought this machine after reading reviews for it and most were not good. I must say I'm glad I ignored them-It's a great bargain for someone who doesn't have the money to spend on an electric one. While adjusting the belt can be alittle difficult once you have it set there usually isn't any need to adjust it further.I am disabled & a klutz but I feel comfortable on this because it goes the same pace I do.My only complaint and it's a small one, is with the readout panel-if you're not careful it may fall off-there needs to be a better way to attach it. Otherwise, a great treadmill for the money.
 It's a real workout! March 17, 2006

This product description is correct concerning putting the unit together and the portablity of the unit. What it doesn't say is that you really get a workout. No matter what incline it is in, it feels as though you are walking up a hill in sandy soil. If you want a strenuous workout, then this unit is for you. If you simply want the unit just to simulate normal walking on a level surface, then this is NOT the unit for you.

This is a pretty good value, for the price.
I'd like to point out, that you need to hold the handle bars to stay on this self powered runner, and that's not SUCH a great thing, as you're not supposed to hold handle bars on runners, if you want to achieve the full potential of your movements....
Pro: It does fold easily, and doesn't take up all that much room when in storage position.
Again, for the price, this is a fair item. I'm not sorry I purchased it. Another pro: it's not loud while in use, as some can be.
You get what you pay for, if you want some mind blowing piece of work out gear, you'll have to spring for more. ;>
Yes, I would buy it again. March 15, 2006

This machine is a great buy for the price. It was simple to put together, doesn't take up much room and is easy to use. There is just a little noise when you are walking, but nothing the TV can't drown out.
