But if you want a simple treadmill from a good name without a lot of fancy bells and whistles, this is a great choice. (Note however that it’s currently on closeout so we’re not sure how long it will be around). The treadmill—an exercise machine with a continuous belt that allows users to walk, run or jog in place—has been a home exercise staple since the 1960s, when American mechanical engineer William Staub introduced a home fitness machine called the PaceMaster 600. Before that, though, the treadmill was invented in 1818 in England as a prison rehabilitation device that encouraged the incarcerated to learn from their sweat. The machine itself is just the tip of the iceberg with this elliptical. The real fun starts when you look at the expansive features that come with it through the iFit membership.

Features: For maintenance, even though the belt is pre-lubricated with high-grade industrial lubricants from the factory, it may require extra lubrication after a while. In addition, you must keep the running belt clean and free of dirt, textile fibers, or other objects that might be dragged under it and caught in the motor. ProsThis treadmill features a maximum 2.25 horsepower motor, with quiet impulse drive feature. The impulse drive helps minimize motor noise when running or jogging on the frame. The treadmill has a user-weight capacity of 220 pounds.A nice feature of this treadmill is the simple folding mechanism. With the touch of a lever, users can fold it and store it below a bed or in a closet when not in use. This simple yet sturdy model is a great option for a budget treadmill. It’s built with solid alloy steel construction and has added conveniences we like to see on a treadmill, like cupholders and a device shelf. A 10% incline max on the 6.5 S offers plenty of training variables. Incline training not only conditions the legs for outdoor hills, it also strengthens the hamstrings to offset quad dominance. It is especially useful for walkers because when you walk at a steep grade, you naturally lengthen your stride and swing your arms for a greater full-body workout. Also, a steeper grade requires more effort, so you can crank up that metabolic output, while still enjoying the low-impact benefits of walking. 20 Pre-programmed workouts
