Treadmill Comparison : 3 Things You Must Know Before Buying

Buying a treadmill? You’ll probably be making several treadmill comparisons when doing your research. Here are 3 things you must know when making treadmill comparisons in order to find the best one for you. Compare Apples To Apples. Don’t compare prices between treadmills online and treadmills sold at a store. They are two different marketplaces, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. When I was selling a Proform treadmill many years ago, the gentleman buying it had gone online and seen the same model for less. I had to explain to him that this price was an online price only. Buying a treadmill online can sometimes be considerably cheaper, depending on the manufacturer, sales, closeouts, etc. So when comparing treadmill prices side by side, make sure you compare online treadmills to online treadmills and store treadmills to store treadmills. Also make sure you’re comparing the same models. It sounds obvious but some treadmill brands have so many similar sounding treadmills in their line-up it’s easy to get confused! 2 Know the Key Ingredients to a Quality Treadmill. Make sure you know the top 4 key ingredients to a quality treadmill: – Motor Power – Stability – Warranty – Cushioning. Your motor is the heart of your treadmill and adequate motor power is extremely important. Most experts recommend at least a 1.5 HP motor although I prefer a 2.0 HP or higher to ensure you don't burn the motor out (and then have to pay costly repair fees). Stability ensures that your treadmill will not shake or wobble when you start to run on it. Your warranty will protect your investment and quality treadmills will include a warranty. (You shouldn’t have to pay extra for a treadmill warranty – unless you want to, of course!) Cushioning is the ability of the treadmill to absorb the force of your step. Higher cushioning means lower impact on your joints and ligaments. Cushioning is extremely important as poor cushioning can cause injury and muscle strain #3) Know What YOU Need When Reviewing Treadmills. Many people get sold on all of the 'neat' features of the treadmill - but don't ever consider if they'll really use them.
