Order Bowflex Series 7 Treadmill
Almost everything about this treadmill is outstanding. The build is solid. The assembly is easy with clear instructions and parts that fit cleanly together.
The only complaint I have about the treadmill is the console (deduct 1 star). For the money spent, I would have wanted a better interface and separate read outs. The scrolling text is very difficult to read. Also the COOL DOWN button serving multiple purposes is a poor design and has led to disrupting numerous workouts. Finally, the numbered routines don't have a legend or labeling to them. You have to refer to the manual to know what routine #8 is about, for example. Otherwise, it is a perfect machine that will last for years.
As others have pointed out. Be sure to measure your ceiling height, especially in basement settings. I'm 5'11 and my basement at 7'0 provides just barely enough head clearance for running. I'm not able to use the incline in my basement location due to clearance.
For delivery... I had it delivered to the garage. I had to take the platform out of the box to move, as that was the only way to clear the doorway. It also reduced a little of the weight. The platform itself is still VERY heavy.
I deduct one star because of the console. Otherwise, I would have easily given the treadmill five stars.
