Treadmill Recommendations?

[CyinCo]

This is a no-brainer. The Nordic-Track treadmill that is available only at Costco for $825. 3chp and goes 12mph. Better looking and sturdier than any other treadmill in this price range that I considered. I own one, it is great. The only thing that isn't awesome about it is that the display is pretty simple. For example, it doesn't ask for your weight so when it tells you how many calories you burned it really has no idea. The link is below, it says $899, but that includes shipping. It will be $825 in the store. I read a review of this treadmill somewhere that called it the best treadmill under $1k ever.

Thanks. Nordic Track is a brand I've looked at (Sears). I'm not a fan of the ProFrom. Actually, the guy at Sears called ProForms "walkers" and said I would need the NordicTrack for running (He said they were the same company).

I've also looked at Horizon quite a bit. I have a Horizon Elliptical.

Sole seems like a good brand. Sole provides treadmills to all Hilton brand hotels. That must say something about them.

The only downside I've heard about NT is their customer service if you have a problem. I've heard they always try to make the problem yours and say that you doing XXXX has voided the warranty.

I'll check out the NT at Costco. We just got a membership for Costco. How timely.

Check out the Smooth Fitness brand. I did a lot of research when we bought ours five years ago and it had the best warranty and reviews for the price (right about $1,000). They only sold on-line back then, but it was shipped with no problems and was easy to assemble. We haven't had a problem in over five years.

Whatever you do, spend time reading reviews.

save money: buy a stick, string, and some hot dogs or whatever you prefer to eat, oh and some duck tape

Does anyone own a Sole? I'm seriously considering the F63.

I checked out that Nordic Track at Costco and it seems great but I'm seriously concerned about NTs customer service. On the Costco website, the unit either got 5 stars or 1 star with 16 ratings. It was about 50% of each. Those that gave it 1 star were people who had problems and had to deal with customer service. That sounds too risky to me.

So if anyone would like to not talk about coaching, respond. Thanks.
