Love this treadmill!,
I am sooo glad I got this inexpensive manual treadmill instead of an expensive motorized one. I put it together in about half and hour. Its a little more of a workout than walking on a level surface (you’re walking slightly uphill all the time) so be prepared to stretch your calf muscles after using it. I also like how light and portable it is. I can push it out of the way easily when I’m not using it (though folding it up IS a little harder than they claim it is). I can also shift it easily to watch t.v. while I’m working out, or shift it in another direction and look out my picture window instead (you can jog on it, too). It also takes up a lot less floor space than the huge motorized ones. The metal and rubber surface area that you walk on is less stressful to your joints than walking on concrete or asphalt-there’s a little bit of ‘give’ to it. I didn’t think I’d use the little computer console, but its kind of fun to see how fast you’re walking and how many calories you’ve burned when your done. I also don’t have to keep checking my pedometer to see how far I’ve gone. The clock is ‘off’ though, it’ll tell you you’ve walked for five minutes when you’ve walked only about three minutes. Also, when putting it together, they forgot to include the screws that hold the computer console onto the handlebars. However, when I called them about it, I immediately was on-line with a courteous REAL person, and they mailed the missing screws to me promptly (in about three days). My treadmill came pre-lubricated, but after a couple of weeks of use I noticed it was ‘sticking’ a little. I lifted up the belt in a few places and just sprayed on some WD-40, and I was gliding along again just fine.

|Excellent workout; quality product,
The item arrived safely and was well packaged. All the parts were included and easy to unpack. It took me about 20 minutes to assemble by myself (a second person is definitely not required). I jumped on and was amazed at 1) how quiet the machine is; I can actually hear my music or the TV while working out, and 2) what a fabulous workout this provides; my legs were burning within minutes! Having to push the belt with my legs provides a much better workout than a non-manual treadmill, and I could immediately feel the difference in my hamstrings and glutes – my biggest trouble spots. I was even able to jog on it; it feels very sturdy. It did take a few minutes to get a good groove going because the belt was slightly jerky, but as soon as I did it was smooth sailing. As everyone else has said, you will need to hold onto the handrails while using to keep from flying across the room and crashing into the dining room table, but it really isn’t a big deal for me and doesn’t seem to cause any problems. I am 5’4″ and my inseam is about 30″, and the length and width of the belt are plenty spacious; I never feel as though I might take a wrong step on accident. The machine is fairly lightweight and very easy to move around from room to room. And you can’t beat the price! I was sad at first that I could only afford a manual treadmill, but now I realize that it was a much better purchase for me. It is smaller and takes up very little space; it folds up and can be stored in an out-of-the-way corner; it is lightweight; it is very sturdy; it has fewer electronic parts that can break and cost money to fix; and in my humble opinion, it simply provides a more efficient workout than one where there belt is moving for you. I would definitely purchase this product again.

|Treadmill,
This product was pretty much what I expected. It was not too difficult to assemble. However, it should come with some lubricant for the belt, it was a bit “jerky” at the beginning. After using some lubricant on the belt it was much smoother.
