I got mine from costco, yearsssss ago, still works just fine, although, doesn't have a lot of mileage on it. I get bored with it really quick.

Have you tried the classifieds, sometimes you can find one with really low mileage at a great price.

My only suggestion is - Get the warranty. They tend to lose belts and need repair somewhat often. I have been eyeing the one at costco as well - it is 899

The Image line of treadmills at Walmart are very high rated, and have many features of the higher line treadmills. I had one until recently and sold it. It was just taking up room, and I never used it. I'm a gym junkie...so prefer to go to the gym, on the other occassions I just walk outside. The treadmill for me was so bulky to have around, and the kids wouldn't stop climbing on it. Some of the things it is important to look far are (belt size...bigger is better) (motor speed the higher end motor usually the more stress it can handle ...i recomend no less than 2.5hp) Check its weight limits ...some treadmills aren't meant to handle more than 200lbs. A muscular man can easily weigh in this range. A feature I like is different programs pre programed..that allows me to some days do a harder workout than others. Sams club and costco and places like that usually have one treadmill at a time. They are usually pretty nice though. I would check it out and compare to some of the other treadmills in your area. I also recomend actually getting on the treadmill and try it out. One of the things I DIDN"t like about mine is that the handles were so close to the front and I tend to walk at the handles and my shoes would squeak on the front end of the treadmill....this doesn't happen at the ones at the gym...so assuming its just the way the one I had was made. I had the Image 10.0. Other than that one annoyance it was a great and relativly quiet treadmill.

thats were i got mine. Its over 8 yrs old now & still works great. I did get their in house warrenty & they came out once every year & replaced any belts or pieces that needed it & they cleaned it all up. I even renewed my warrenty for an additional 2 years after because i felt it was worth it. I think its a good place to go- sears.

Mine's a Nordic Trak that I got at Sears (with warranty). I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. It's SO easy to just hop on and get some cardio in. Sears is a great place to go, they have a good selection and provide warranty.

Looking in the classifieds is also a good idea. You can get good deals that way.
