Review on Black Folding Electric Treadmill Machine For Home Fitness By MURTISOL - Running, Walking And Cardio Exercise Equipment by Mike Skinner

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I LOVE THE TREADMILL; THE ASSEMBLY MANUAL NEEDS CLARITY

PROS: My home is small and space is at a premium. This treadmill is perfect for both the space and for my exercise needs. When I first opened the box, I was initially a little concerned about the length and width of the running belt. But it works just fine for me. I’m 5’5” and even walking very fast, I don’t need to adjust my stride at all. I’m not a jogger, so I can’t speak to running on the surface. The Control Panel has all the features I need to monitor my progress, but I wish the measures were in MPH or miles instead of metric measures. That’s a minor inconvenience, though. I’d definitely recommend this machine to anyone looking for a smaller treadmill that functions like much larger units.CONS: The assembly manual that comes with the treadmill was, to me, completely worthless. My guess is the manual was written by someone in a foreign language, then translated to English. The contrast of the pictures is dark which make it difficult to see detail and the instructions are both vague & incomplete. For example: There are 2 different size bolts (4 of each), plus nuts & washers in the bag of parts and accessories. These bolts, etc. are not shown anywhere in the manual and it’s left to the buyer to guess what goes where. Several reviewers said they had no problem putting the treadmill together, but it took me about an hour. Granted, that’s not a lot of time, but if the manual was more helpful, it probably would have taken about 15 minutes. Someone who is handy at assembling this treadmill would do every potential buyer a HUGE service if they'd post a You Tube tutorial video demonstrating each step of the assembly.In spite of the manual, the moment I got the treadmill assembled, plugged it in and turned it on, it worked like a charm and still does. I definitely recommend this treadmill.

Pros
  • Sports & Outdoors
Cons
  • The transportation wheels may not function properly, leading to difficulty moving the machine
