    Easy to assemble. Received on the date initially promised. Cheaper than getting locked into a gym membership which I usually stop using 2-3 months in. Convenience right in my home. Sturdy machine with settings for up to 4 users and multiple programmed workouts. Great investment.

    I have been going to the gym mainly to run on the treadmill. So I know quality treadmills when I use them. I have been looking for a quality treadmill for awhile and finally found this one at a reasonable price. I’m over 200 pounds and this has no problem holding up at my weight.

    I love everything about this treadmill. The automatic incline, the programmable user option and the fact that I can plug my phone in and listen to my favorite music while working out is incredible. It wasn’t very hard to put together but did take some time. Overall, one of my best purchases and investments of 2023 so far.

    I’ve had this treadmill for 2 months now, using it several times a week. I have only used it for walking workouts at a high incline and it has worked like a dream. I’m very happy with this purchase and would recommend for those interested in a treadmill for walking workouts.

    This treadmill is a beast. Much bigger and well-built than I anticipated. It definitely feels like it will last a long time. The suspension helps to cushion my knees when I run. Overall wonderful product.

    My BXT6's incline motor failed after less than a year and so I replaced it with this. Just getting back into running so I don't need anything fancy, but this has plenty of preset programs, doesn't need a membership to use and overall has about everything I need. Pairing with the HR strap was in and out, so I abandoned trying to use it. It seemed to pair a little better with my Polar HR than the one provided but even that wouldn't stay connected. Would recommend for the price point.

    I've only had it for a few weeks so I can't speak to how well it will hold up. I purchased this because I already had some Bowflex equipment and have a JRNY subscription. I am 267lbs and am mostly using it for incline walking not jogging/running.

    Pretty good treadmill. Well worth with the high price. I enjoy it a lot. If you have assembly service in your area with this pay the extra and save your self the agony of putting it together cause it will be difficult. Other than that I am glad I bought it.

    For our level of exercise; meets all of our expectations; very easy to operated. great treadmill and very quiet. We really like it compared to the Pro-Form and Soul 80 the we've had in the past. More importantly, for the price, it's hard to beat.

    I bought this machine from best buy and let me tell you it was a headache to even have it delivered. Once i ordered it they were clming to “install” the machine keep in mind i didnt even receive it yet. Then when i called and yelled at them they delivered the machine at their own convenience and i had to wait to have it installed about a week later. Keep in mind from the time i bought it to whenit was delivered and i stalled was well over a month. Then when i strated to use it, it started to skip on the belt. I called tech suporot and they had me do a factory reset and recalibration. Needless to day that didnt work. Tney sent a tech out and he replaced the speed sensor cable. It worked fine for one cycle and then started to skip again. I called them again and now they ordered a control board and some other parts all or some to be swapped out to get the machine to work. Ive had this thing in my house for less than 2 months and to have to call bowflex 3 times in that time frame is a big big BIG NO NO for me. The next time i call it will be to thr BBB and i will post to social media. As i think its unacceptable to pay almost 2K for a machine to have it perform like this. Absolutely ridiculous.
