Product Description
An easy, affordable way to get a great cardiovascular workout at home regardless of the weather or time of day, the Stamina InMotion II treadmill is a great choice for home workout enthusiasts. The treadmill is self-powered, meaning you set your own workout pace rather than relying on a motor. Not only is this an energy-efficient means of staying in shape, but it's also extremely quiet, so you can easily watch low-volume TV shows or listen to music while running without disturbing others. The InMotion II also offers a 42-inch-long walking/running deck that accommodates both longer and shorter strides, along with dual-weighted flywheels that keep the deck running smoothly. And users will love the multi-function, battery-operated monitor, which tracks distance, workout time, speed, and calories burned. Perhaps most importantly for crowded homes, the InMotion II folds up and stores easily in a closet or garage. Other details include a textured, non-slip walking/running surface; foam-padded front and side rails; a heavy-duty steel frame; a pair of incline positions (8 and 10 degrees); skid-resistant rubber floor protectors to maximize stability; and a weight capacity of 250 pounds. The InMotion II--which doesn't require an electrical outlet, so you can put it just about anywhere--measures 46.5 by 43.5 by 26 inches (W x H x D) when fully assembled and weighs 56 pounds. It's also backed by a one-year warranty on the frame and a 90-day warranty on parts. About Treadmills
Walking is still considered one of the most beneficial cardiovascular exercises for people of all ages, body types, and fitness levels. As a fundamental form of aerobic training, walking has numerous physical benefits for the heart, lungs, and circulatory system, while also increasing muscle tone and burning fat calories. Treadmills provide a convenient way to regularly exercise in all weather conditions in the comfort and safety of your own home. From beginners just starting an exercise regimen to advanced athletes looking to maintain their fitness level, anyone interested in getting and staying in shape can benefit greatly from regular use of a treadmill. Treadmills allow you to determine the pace, distance, and complexity of the workout based on your needs, all while watching television, talking on the telephone, or reading a magazine. Much easier on sensitive joints like the knees and hips, treadmill walking and running surfaces are typically long, padded platforms that allow ample room for a long stride and comfortable, low-impact walk or jog without the harsh contact of a concrete surface. While many different types, styles, and price ranges of treadmills exist, many of them offer unique features like a fold-up design for easy storage, an electronic display monitor showing speed, distance, workout time, incline level, and burned calories, and EKG grip pulses to monitor the heart rate while exercising. Regardless of the simple to complex features you may choose, treadmills offer an array of aerobic exercise opportunities that will provide long-lasting beneficial cardiovascular results without a commute to the gym or a jog in the rain.

Comment:
My husband put the treadmill together without any problems. The treadmill works great for walking and running. Because the resistance is fairly high, I get a good workout even just walking on it. It's a nice way to be able to get a quick workout in at home. I saw from some of the other reviews that people mentioned needing a lubricant for the belt. I haven't needed any. I think the belt moves fine on its own. The treadmill probably weighs about 50 lbs. It folds up so that it can be stored under a fairly tall bed or in a closet. It's not so heavy that I can't take it in and out of the closet by myself, but if I'm lugging it up stairs it's easier to have two people carry it.

Wonderful little workout tool

Comment:
I love this machine. It enables me to work out in the privacy of my own apartment. My apartment is tiny, and this machine is the perfect size for me. It folds up to be out of the way, and doesn't take up that much space when it's expanded either. I am able to get a great workout on this machine because of the incline- it really gets my heart rate up so there is no need to ever run on this machine. You CAN run on this machine if you want, but with the incline it gets pretty hard core. I wouldn't recommend running on it if you're really overweight though. It's meant to be walked on. You WILL want to buy a bottle of THIS LifeSpan Fitness 100% Silicone Treadmill Belt Lubricant with your machine. It's a spray lubricant that goes under the belt, because eventually the factory lubricant will wear off eventually. Overall this machine is easy to set up, easy to use, and delivers great results!

OK for the money

Comment:
I read all the good and not so good reviews and decided to buy this.
I'm 5'3" and 120 lbs (ok.. 130 lbs) and here are my comments:
-- assembled in 10 minutes
-- the person who said silicone it up really well was right - do it
-- the person who said to use a 2x4 under the back to decrease the incline was right - do it
-- this is designed for walking and fast walking - NOT running
-- this is designed for a shorter person with a shorter stride
-- if you are looking for the ease, steady movement of an automatic treadmill, do not buy this
-- read the instructions on adjusting when the belt shifts - it takes a few adjustments, but then it stays
-- I can't comment on the digital monitor since my vision isn't so hot (I can't really see the numbers very well)
-- when you get the hang of the walking rhythm, this will be a good workout
-- and, I don't think this is loud (and I'm sensitive to loud machinery)

Good manual treadmill

Comment:
It too me several adjustments to get the belt at the correct tension, but after I did get it, it's been a pretty good treadmill for the money. Being manual, it is a little work to get it going, but it definitely adds to the workout. It was easy to put together, folds easily. Perfect for my needs.

Broke in a couple months

Comment:
At first I was relatively satisfied with the treadmill. It's noisy and takes some time to get used to but when it works it does its job very well. I actually managed to lose about 10 pounds in the first month. The problem started shortly after that. The belt started to shift more and more and one time after tightening it something shifted when I was walking and all of a sudden I could smell burning plastic. Turns out the screw was stripped and was grinding into the plastic of the roller.
I've tried to fix it since then but nothing seems to help. I would try to return it but it was cheap and it would probably cost almost as much to ship it back.
