My husband and I recently purchased this treadmill. Sears delivered it with some other items we purchased two weeks before for the same delivery fee. We put it together in about an 1 1/2 hour. it was pretty simple but it would almost be impossible to put together by one person. we've used it for a few weeks now and everything is still running smooth. One word of advice, assemble it in the room you intend to keep it.

I bought this treadmill after having a heart attack. I was looking for something with an affordable price that would be good for walking. I'm not a runner, never was and never will be. It is very heavy and my husband had to get help in getting in the house. Putting it together didn't seem to be a problem for him. It is heavy though even when you try to fold it up. As long as you keep it stretched out and in the same spot not a problem. Made my purchase in January 08 and have been happy.

Excellent packaging, easy to assemble. Heavy (180+lbs) requires 2 people to move, especially upstairs. Very quiet running motor. Easy read & select controls. Space saving fold-up a plus. Durable (one year full warranty, 12 years drive motor warranty), should provide years of service even though we've only had it a few days.

I purchased this treadmill the day after Christmas and after a month of use, I cannot be more pleased. It was on sale for $399.99 and my local Sears dealer gave me another $40 off for making a canned food donation to our local food pantry. You can't beat Sears! It took about two hours to assemble and all of the parts were present and free from damage. I run three miles, three to four times per week, and my wife walks a few miles four or five days per week and so far, the treadmill has performed wonderfully. At $359.99, it was a super bargain. I would definitely recommend this treadmill. Thanks...

First, as a lot of people have said was that it took about 2 weeks to have them deliver it to the store for pickup. My husband I had brought the treadmill to our family room which is down about 5 stairs. This treadmill is very heavy. Husband is not very handy so I put it together and it took me about 3 hours. It was packaged very nicely and so far everything has been working. Take it I have only used it once. But I am very happy with it so far and for the price you can't go wrong.

OK, so all went very smoothly getting the treadmill home, it is quite heavy though... it took me about an hour or so to assemble it, although they recommend two people, one can make do. I've used it for about two weeks now with little problem, although recently, the one things that concerns me is the lighted display will not work sometimes unless you tap on it, hopefully it's only a connection issue that I may be able to fix.

I ordered this treadmill as a Christmas gift to myself and LOVE IT! The only thing I did not like was it took 2 weeks to get it shipped to my local Sears store, one would think with a corporation as big as Sears that those trucks would run daily and it could have come sooner! But I can already tell the quality of the treadmill is nice. My husband ( 6'5") and I (5'10") are both very tall and it works well for both of us. I would have liked it to include a fan and would consider getting one with a fan if I re-ordered but for the price you CAN NOT beat this piece of exercise equipment.

For $369, this was a GREAT buy. Only problem was putting it together where the right side flange did not exactly fit the metal arm which holds up the display console. Had to hammer in the metal arm a bit to fit into the flange. The left side fit fine. Once assembled, it ran quiet and nice. Hopefully, it will last a while with no major problems.

Just picked this treadmill up New Years Day. First I have to say it is much better built when you assemble it yourself than in the store. The display model seemed to be a bit wobbly but if you take your time it goes together very well and rather easily.
Anyways, we are very happy with the purchase, the display is very easy to read, it runs quietly, and the platform has a nice give to it which makes running easier on the knees and ankles. The motor is more than powerful enough and the running area is a nice size.
We noticed a big difference in quality between the less expensive models and this one,...

I bought this treadmill for my wife for Christmas. It is the first we've owned so I did some research on them and found this one to fit our needs and budget. I was hoping to avoid the problems I read on other reviews but alas I encountered some myself. Nothing major but something I will have to deal with. The first one I fixed myself, a part was bent so that another part would not slip on properly. I simply beat it back to shape with a hammer and it was cured. The second problem involved the knob on the locking bar underneath the unit. It had been broken at some point and glued back together. When...

I actually went to the store and purchased this...loaded it in the car from merchandise pickup...didn't even think to check anything since it's fully enclosed in a box...got it all the way home and down the flight of stairs to the basement. NOT a light item by any means! My husband went to set it up and discovered the body of the treadmill was cracked in (3) places and the brackets were bent! I'm supposed to have a new one delivered tomorrow....so far the staff has been accommodating....we'll see!!

This is the first treadmill I have ever owned and didn't want to spend a fortune on something that I wasn't sure I would like. I have used it several times now, and I think I'm going to enjoy it.
I love the pre-programmed workouts and the fact that it is also customizable is a definite plus since I like to increase my speed at various intervals.
I don't use the heart rate monitor since I wear one but from my experience with it, you have to make sure that your hands are in exactly the right position for a long time before you'll get even close to an accurate reading.
As other reviewers have mentioned,...

I bought my treadmill at Christmas and have been very pleased with it. It is smooth quiet and easy on the knees. After three months of hard use by both me and my wife the belt started to slip. I tried tightening the belt and it continued to slip, so I called Sears and they sent a tech out. Called on Sunday night and tech came out on Tuesday. Turns out it wasn't the tread belt, but the drive belt was loose. Fixed free of charge under warrenty and I couldn't be more pleased.
