However, some experienced issues with the belt, assembly process, and motor, while others reported problems with the incline function.

    I jog 45-50 miles per week on it and the machine has been reliable thus far. Its very sturdy, rarely sticks, and has a great cooling fan, which is very helpful for the long jogs.

    This treadmill is just what we were looking for. It has all the basics that we need and not too much of the tech stuff that we're not going to use.

    Works great as advertised. Best Buy geek service has been a godsend. I finally wore out my previous ProForm after 20+ years.

    I believe I may have received a defective machine. The treadmill slips in the OPPOSITE direction it is supposed to go in—at random times—creating a very scary and hazardous experience. I can’t walk on it without gripping the rails because it can slip forward at any moment, almost causing me to trip or fall. It is even worse when my family members try to run on it. I thought it would stop after some use as suggested, but it has not. Unfortunately, I will be returning or exchanging because I am not interested in any of us ending up in the hospital over it.

    Easy to use. Does not require iFit. Directions come with a QR code so you can watch fully 3D animations of each step. Runs very well!

    The directions are not difficult to follow but rather the parts do not fit together well even when screws are left loose until later on in the process as directed. I now have to go back and take apart all I have put together to figure out what is causing the misalignments. Pay for someone else to put together or get something that feels less like IKEA.

    I am enjoying the treadmill and all went well, with the installation and the Geek Squad employees who did the work, at my home.

    Pretty sure I bought the wrong one… it’s pretty tho… assembly wasn’t terribly hard but it wasn’t easy either. Haven’t really tested it out yet… I’ll update when I do.

    Works ok for a home gym. If you weight more than 200 lb I do not recommend as the belt will struggle spinning.
