A treadmill is a great investment in fitness. Here are some things to examine in the reviews to help you decide which treadmill to purchase:

• Price reviews - When you shop by price you must be careful to select the best in that price range. The price ranges for treadmills generally break down to Budget $500-$1500, Mid-Range $1500-$3000 and Quality $3000-up, but look out for sales and discounts.
• The Motor and Horsepower review- The motor matters - it gets the heaviest workout. The horsepower ratings can be confusing. The figure you want to look at on a treadmill is the "continuous duty rating" and shop for 1.5 to 2.5 HP "continuous duty". The "peak duty" rating is less valuable.
• Stability and Smooth Ride treadmill - The hand rails should be sturdy enough to support you and be in a position that allows you to grip them easily and not block your arm motion. The belton on the treadmill must be wide enough and long enough for your stride.
• Workout Features on your treadmill- Check out reviews to help you choose a treadmill model that has the most pre-set and programmable workouts to vary pace and incline. The incline and speed on your treadmill should be easily adjustable.
• Noise and Space - The treadmill needs to work in your space. Check reviews for how noisy is it? If you plan to watch TV or listen to music, you need to be able to hear those over the treadmill itself. Check its review for size when folded or stored and test how easy it is to move.
• Manual vs. Motorized Treadmills - Many are tempted to buy a manual treadmill instead of a motorized treadmill due to the costs. But manual treadmills have many drawbacks vs. their motorized cousins.
• Treadmill Bargains and Alternatives - If a new treadmill breaks your budget, there are many alternatives to find good treadmills at bargain prices. Check out the main page for compare treadmills.
