Review.
This treadmill is very similar to all the other Bowflex models. It’s very sturdily built, and comes with impressive warranties. 10 years for parts is rare.
Being the smaller version, it has a less powerful motor and a smaller running surface. Bowflex treadmills have always been known to deliver a comfortable experience for the runner. This is due to the Strike Zone deck cushioning that comes with the machines.
Again, the only drawback is the weight of the machine. Don’t expect the delivery people to move the machine to where you want it to be. They will likely move it just into the house. After that, you have to figure out a way to move the machine around. So be prepared to get additional help (this treadmill weighs 265 pounds). Get your family and friends to help. If they are not available, your only option is to hire mover guys.
For the price of $899, this is a good buy.
