Wonderful for the price! March 11, 2008 S. Salvatore (SI, NY) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I've had this treadmill for about 3-4 months now, and wow. It's great, easy to store and move and works well. I use it while watching TV in my bedroom. I've already lost 20lbs! If you don't feel like going to the gym that day, use this manual treadmill instead! It's a great price and a great product. I'm 24 and female and put the treadmill together on my own in about 30 minutes. Very nice product! Highly recommended!
Works great! February 24, 2008 JEO (Fremont, CA) 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Fast Delivery. Easy set up. Works really well. I thought it'd be a lot quieter then it is, but it's definitely quieter then any of the motored ones.

I just got this treadmill and I love it. I researched motorized treadmills quite a bit. I wanted a really quality treadmill. I have had a cheaper treadmill before and I realize that for a really good motorized model you need to spend over $1,000 for one that will last. I decided to wait a while to buy once since I didn't have that much money just lying around. Then I happened to find out about manual treadmills, so I did some research on them. I remembered using one years ago in the gym of an apartment complex I lived in. I found out that manual treadmills actually give you a much better workout than a motorized one because you are powering it yourself and you are walking or running on a slight incline. Manual treadmills are much better for toning your legs, butt and hips than a motorized treadmill. I read all of the reviews of various models and finally decided on this one. I got it and put it together very quickly. I walked on it for a few minutes, like the instructions suggest, and found it needed to be slightly adjusted. After I got it adjusted so the belt wouldn't move from side to side I did an actual workout on it. Recently I have been doing the same walking/running workout outside in my neighborhood and also on my brother's motorized treadmill. Doing my usual workout on this treadmill worked me out harder than the other two methods. I really like the monitor that tracks the time, speed, distance and calories and it seems very accurate, other than the calories. Figuring out how many calories you are burning depends on how much you weigh and how much muscle tone you have, so I would not count on the calorie counter for being very accurate. I like the fact that when it's folded up it takes up very little room. It does take a little getting used to compared to walking on the ground or on a motorized treadmill, but once you figure it out it is a great workout. I would highly recommend this treadmill.
Simply simple April 15, 2008 M. Harris (Ft.Mitchell,Ky.USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Had a little trouble getting the darn thing, was sent the first time without the hardware, but as usual Amazon handled the whole problem with no problems had the bad one picked up the new one delivered. It calls for two people to put it together but I did it by myself....and I'm a 60+ female. Works very well. I'm very pleased with it, for the money you can't beat it.
Satisfied my needs. June 7, 2008 M. Nill 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I think this is the first time I have written a product review. I am very pleased with my purchase. I have been wanting to purchase a treadmill for a long time, but $1k just seemed to be too much for a student budget, plus, the hours that I have to exersize are usually early in the morning or later at night. Considering the dangers of working out alone in the dark outside, I have been puzzled as to what to do. I didn't want to buy a gym membership and get locked into paying something for 2 years (when moving is coming up in my future)and it would be difficult to motivate myself to drive there, etc. So when I found out about the manual treadmill, I jumped at the chance to own it at a decent price. I ordred the Stamina InMotion II and have used it a number of times. I set it up alone and have enjoyed the rigors of using it. It has built my endurance and helped me begin to lose weight I have carried for years. I highly recommend it to anyone who desires to get into shape or keep in shape. There is only one thing that is even close to being a bad thing about this treadmill, and that is on one of the handles, the holes for a screw didn't align to where it could be screwed in place. It doesn't bother me, though, since it is in a place that little to no pressure is being placed...it is probably just a factory defect on my piece alone, so I don't think it should be a reason not to purchase this treadmill.
