5Amazing Treadmill for the Money  Sep 21, 2008
I've had this treadmill for six months and used it regularly (at least 3 times per week). I've never had any problems. The treadmill was put together easily by my husband and I and he maintains the belt tautness by simple adjustments (thoroughly explained in the DVD that accompanies the purchase). The logistical information is basic, but adequate. The running speed can be changed in increments of 0.5 mph, but this has proved more than reasonable for me. I was concerned at first about buying a "cheap" treadmill, but this machine is a quality piece of engineering. You will not be disappointed.

4Works well  Sep 03, 2008
Purchased this nearly a year ago, works well for my needs, running a few times a week. Very sturdy. Only problem I have had: motor cover on the front is a bit flimsy, it cracked in 2 places easily when my toddler sat on it. And actually when it first arrived the same cover was badly cracked and the whole treadmill had to be sent back to Amazon (that was a bit of an ordeal). But overall, it's a great treadmill at a great price.

3You get what you pay for  May 21, 2008
Pros-
$$$ the price!
Assembly was a breeze.
Quiet while in use.
Convenient fold away option.

Cons-
The belt was off center and needed a LOT of adjustments to finally align it properly. (It took two people, many, many, many hours of readjusting...and a few meltdowns, before we got it right.)
Heart rate monitor is faulty.

Overall impression -
You are getting what you pay for,and if looking for a good, cheap treadmill that can be delivered to your place within the price, then this treadmill may be for you.

5Does a basic job splendidly  Apr 30, 2008
I've been using this each day for a week now, and unless something goes horribly wrong (in which case, I'll update the review), it is an excellent product for a simple, straightforward workout. I only use this for walking, not jogging/running, and at the moment, only for half an hour a day, so I can't comment on how it works for more intense treatment. Contrary to some of the reviews, I didn't find it difficult to assemble. I'm a not-very-fit woman under 5ft tall, and I put it together myself in about 1 1/2 hours (some advice for all self-assembly stuff - don't tighten all the screws as you go along. Some 'out of alignment' problems can be caused by fully tightening one section too soon). The width and length seem reasonable (a 5ft6 friend had no problems striding out on it, and running on it), it has several pre-set programs to assist in weight loss and muscle tone if you want to use them, and a good range of speeds and incline levels and clear displays on the monitor. I think the heart-rate indicator is probably inaccurate, but I'm not bothered about that. I just want a relatively cheap, reliable, basic product to help me get a bit fitter, and this model fits that bill splendidly.

5Good Machine  Apr 11, 2008
This machine, treadmill is perfect for me and my home. It folds up so I can put it away, it has several workout programs and has several areas to place items needed for a workout such as waterbottle or cd player . Im satisfied with it very much. Good price also.
