Excellent for a low profile lightweight treadmill
First off, do not compare this with larger, heavier more substantial treadmills. This is a different thing, with a different purpose. (I had a big one in my old house but have downsized). It is very good for what it is. PROS It came well packaged and fully assembled It is very lightweight Easy to fold and unfold Easy to move Takes up very little room when stored; can store flat or upright The platform is low, so you can use it where you have a low ceiling Very good for walking; moderate for running Can easily set up under a desk and work on computer Pretty quiet Excellent value CONS The buttons are odd and just don't make sense, but once you figure them out they're OK The buttons on both the machine and the instrument are VERY hard to see, very hard to read the symbols...no color, just indented, no contrast NO PAUSE!!! <-- This is my biggest pet peeve; if you stop for a minute, you're done (or you can get off and leave it running) Display is very simple and down by your feet, not super easy to read. Disappears the moment you turn it off, so if you want to know how far you went or data, it just goes straight to zero Feels somewhat "insubstantial" -- but I chose it because it's small and lightweight and low, so...I get it, it's a trade-off You have to turn it on/off with a rocker switch on the platform Mine felt a little lopsided; like a wobbly table, and no way to adjust the legs/feet, but so slight, that it was okay when I put it on a yoga mat The programs listed in the book aren't correct Instructions are clearly written by non-native English speakers, but you can figure it out Overall, I am very happy with the purchase. I was given a much longer window of time for the package to arrive and it came very quickly. I've had it for just over a week and have done walking while working in the "flat"/under desk mode; more serious "power" walking; light running. It has been good for all. I am a runner and it's okay for running, but I always prefer to be outside. An adequate substitute. But stuck inside a lot this spring :(
