- REGISTER WHEN YOU BUY TO EXTEND THE WARRANTY - The web form errors if you attach a receipt so skip that I guess. Other reviewers say you have TEN DAYS after purchase.T202:Admittedly this is my first treadmill purchase. However, I spent several hours researching and reading before deciding on this one. Especially with prime shipping and an extended warranty, to be less than $1k with tax is bonkers. We've only put about 20 "miles" on it so far but could not be happier --again, for the price.Some random thoughts:- Disassembled, the base is a bit too heavy to move with 1 person unless you're just rocking it into place (and you weight over 170 pounds). The instructions say keep it deployed and shipping cables in until done so you can't use the wheels :(- The speaker is a joke, not nearly loud enough to understand a podcast over my clopping hooves- Fan is homeopathic but better than nothing- Assembly is super fast and easy, pretty large and grippy tools included- Incline is incline -- we only have 7 foot ceilings where we put it which I stupidly did not account for. Wife can crank it but I'm too tall to get anything above 4 running or my head will hit the ceiling.- Well built, at least the important parts. Control panel wont cosmetically survive a topple or a drop with assembly unscathedMost importantly: For the the 60" deck, good reliability, adequate power I haven't found a better deal. Add in a $30 bluetooth speaker, $60 two year warranty, and a $20 floor fan and the package will rock many $1500 treadmills out there. Read the bad reviews: many talk about how their machine was serviced -- notice nobody says that they get ghosted by support like I read with many nordic track reviews.Update: one month in and this has changed my life. Working as expected.

Simple. Easy to assemble. Does the job. I love that this is so easy to put together and when you just need a few extra steps get some energy. This is the treadmill. It’s very dependable. I love their reputation as a company. This one doesn’t have a lot of bells and whistles, but I don’t like a lot of bells and whistles on any kind of electronic device because they just break. I use my own iPad my own timers really everything I do on my own but this raises up to 10 incline the speed goes up to 10 that has six different scheduled courses programs. It can’t take your heart rate. It has a safety switch. The Bluetooth is hard to hear once the machines on so I don’t really use that if I’m going at any kind of speed

Overall, this is a very sturdy treadmill. It is solidly built and has good features built in. I especially like the quick dials for speed and incline built onto the ends of the pulse handles. One thing that is missing, though not a deal breaker, is it doesn’t show Steps. Seems odd but that’s what my Fitbit watch is for! 😊 One word of advice, many people have commented about the noise it makes when running on it. I found there are adjustments on the feet, visible when you lift up the deck. Make sure the deck is sitting on them flat by screwing or unscrewing the adjusters. Also, check the wheels are flat against the ground as well when the deck is all the way down. I had to use pieces of old laminate flooring to even them out and get them flat. After that, it doesn’t make a sound when running on it.Overall, I am very happy with the purchase.

We purchased a unit in January of 2024. The machine worked for about a month before it started smelling like smoke and stopped working. We contacted the company and they eventually sent a technician who said the motor and control board needed replacing. After about a month, the parts came and it was replaced only for the same thing to happen within 2-3 weeks. The motor and control board were replaced several times before the company opted to send us a new unit. The new unit arrived in early August and by September the same problem happened. After a month, a technician was sent and once again said the motor and control board needed replacing. Since the warranty is only good for a year and we feared the machine would just keep breaking past the warranty period, we asked the company to simply refund the money and they said since it was purchased through Amazon they could not do it. While the customer service department has attempted to keep the units working, it doesn't change the fact that we basically have a very expensive paperweight in our house that has only worked for less than 3 months in the 10 months we have had it. We are currently in the process of trying to contact Amazon through their rather not user friendly customer service system to see if anything can be done, but we are not getting our hopes up.We have come to the conclusion that the problem is simply that the machine is not meant for daily home use as advertised. We only walked on the machine at speeds of under 3mph. The machine was lubricated and cared for according to directions, but the motor is just not powerful enough for daily use. If you are purchasing this treadmill as part of a new year's resolution and plan to only use it for 3 weeks before giving up on it or if you exercise very sporadically, then it might work for you. If you actually want to make a lifestyle change and walk on a daily basis to improve your health, then you are better off looking somewhere else. One of the many technicians that came to service the machine recommended getting a unit with at least a 4hp motor. If we decide to risk purchasing another treadmill, we will look for a better, more reliable option.
