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:
I've owned this treadmill for a little over a week now, so take this review for what it's worth.
I had no issue with the delivery experience. Amazon really seems to have their act straight when it comes to this part of the process as far as I can tell. I imagine delivery problems are akin to what makes the nightly news. Everything works just fine 95% of the time; it's only the 5% that goes wrong and makes the cut (and, subsequently, you get the rant reviews...understandably so; I'd be ticked too if I bought a $900 broke up piece of machinery). So I was lucky to be part of the 95%, with only a small irrelevant gash in the box with no damage whatsoever to the treadmill itself. As most of the reviews say, the thing is heavy. You can slide the box on a smooth surface if you're fairly strong, but unless you're a 'roid monster, don't think you can pick this thing up by yourself. Have a second pair of hands ready if you need to move the box around.
Putting it together took, maybe, 1/2 hour - 45 minutes. Most of the time took in getting the packing material off the parts and putting the thing where I wanted it. Aside from that, it's only a few steps in the process. Most of the nuts and bolts are already in place; it's just a matter of getting a few key ones in place and you're done. It does help to have another person to get certain things lined up so you could insert the bolt with no problem, but I don't think it would've been impossible to do it by yourself. The only glitch I had, and a minor one at that, was the need to get the treadmill's running mat centered once it was all put together. No biggie. Just needed to turn it on, a few twists of the accompanying allen wrench, and it was done. The manual shows you how to do it.
Turned it on for my first go and away I went.
I do like the white/blue digital display.
There seems to be enough different programs to keep me entertained for a while.
You can have 2 personal profiles to keep track of your calories and time spent on the treadmill. For some reason, it doesn't store distance. Perhaps I'm not doing it right. That's one of the minor gripes I have on the profile setting. Setting up the profile is no big deal, but it's not pretty intuitive as to how to retrieve or store the data. I get nervous I'm about to erase my profile and find myself having to refer to the manual to be sure I don't goof up. But I'll just attribute that to only having it for a week. The more I tinker, the more I'm "getting" it.
Unlike other reviewers, I actually think the little fan in the dash does a pretty good job. It has a low and high speed. Just enough of a breeze on the face to keep me comfortable. But that's just me; I suppose everyone has their preference.
A couple other minor quibbles:
I agree with another reviewer. Why the engineers thought to put the on/off button at the bottom-front of the machine is a mystery to me. Since the power chord is up toward the front too, I have the treadmill facing my wall (where the outlet is). So I have to duck under the handlebars to shut it off and on. Makes me think I'm going to slam my head someday if I'm not thinking. So yeah, the on/off button and the location of the power chord probably should have been thought through a little better.
I'm also not too keen on the beep sounds that happen every single time you push a button. Be nice if you could mute them.
But as I say, these are a couple minor quibbles in my mind.
To sum it up, a good experience so far. The treadmill has a real solid feel (and I'm a fairly big guy: 6' @ 250 pds.), doesn't make much noise at all (we have it downstairs and the only thing you hear upstairs, if you listen close, is the beep-beep-beep of pushing the buttons to set your profile or chose you program), and seems a really decent price for the quality (nothing like avoiding that sales tax on these big ticket purchases!). For peace of mind, and since this is a big ticket item to me, I bought the Square Trade warrenty. But I'm fairly confident I shouldn't have to use it if first impressions are of any indication. I'll try to remember to do a follow up in 6 months or so.
This is my first treadmill, so I'm certainly no expert, but if you're looking for one this one has this buyer's recommendation.

Great deal, but one heavy treadmill

Comment:
If you think you can move this beast around on your own, good luck and you probably don't need a treadmill. It is really heavy...and you can't exactly open the box and carry parts to where you want it. It is just a few plastic parts and a couple nuts and bolts. The manual weighs more than the parts not attached to the treadmill. The delivery guy for us was great, but don't always expect the great service we got.
As for a treadmill...it's awesome. Very solid and the fact that I got it for more than 50% off as a deal of the day makes it sweeter. It's only day one, but I am impressed.
Comment:

Fantastic Treadmill with pr-level features
|
Comment:
I stumbled upon this thing on closeout at a local sporting goods store. It was $1999 new, and I picked it up for $450! I couldn't believe it! I've been wanting a top-level treadmill for fifteen years and they have eluded me. Enough about that! Onto the treadmill...
We were checking it out at the store and the sales person showed me how it didn't move when he got on it. He weighs about 260 and I'm about 250. I tried it and it was smooth as glass. For that price, I had to get it. Only a fool would pass that deal up! We got the floor model, so it was already assembled.
We brought it home and it is a beast! It is quite heavy, so as to stand the heavy punishment of Clydesdales like me. The backlit LCD display is great to look at. It's in reverse (white characters on dark background). A great feature is the thumb controls for speed and incline. They are just great. It has two cup holders on the console and heart monitor sensors built into the handles.
What surprised me when I got the unit home and unpacked the bag (with all the manuals and such) was that there was a polar heart rate monitor! I didn't notice anything about that on the display. It's the chest strap type and broadcasts to the treadmill. This is a fantastic feature, so I don't have to squeeze the stupid handles all the time.
I've put a couple of miles on it and my kids have all given it a thorough rogering. They've done all the levels of incline and all the speeds and snatched the safety key out and all that. If it can stand they're consumer labs style of testing, then it's ready for action.
Good stuff!

Nautilus T514 Treadmill
|
Comment:
Arriving on a large tractor trailer, and carried indoors by two adults, the Nautilus T514 Treadmill provides good performance for its class.
Unlike our previous machine, which was a Nordic Trac X5, installation was a breeze. With all tools provided, we only had to screw on the right and left panels, and a few other plastic parts, but the entire unit was ready to go. The only component we bought separately was the TREADMILL Maintenance Lubrication, Applicator & Walking Belt Adjustment KIT, as none was provided.
This treadmill performs well in its simplicity, and is fairly lightweight too. Although not high in quality as some other units, we are pleased. The only downside is the lack of a built-in system to park the walking belt upright.
