Man! Try to get some advice on treadmills is like ridiculous. Seems every website dedicated to running and treadmills has "paid " advertisers on there making positive claims on all their equipment like they are average users. It's like you can't get a real life review like you can on this site or any other forum I go on. The exercise industry is NUTS!!!
Everything I read says spend $2000 minimum. Well, that ain't going to happen and my wife won't let it. I'm having a hard enough time getting her to let me spend $700 on a treadmill. I can probably go to $1K but that's it. My wife and I will walk and light jog on it daily or a few times a week when we can't get outside. No marathons for us.. pass. I've looked at the Livestrong branded stuff at Dick's Sporting Good, the Nordick Trak stuff at Sears and have seen that Sole and Smooth make ok stuff... but can I trust any of the reviews?
Anyway, since I can trust you guys, what are you using and what do you recommend to stay away from.
