Save Bowflex Series 7 Treadmill
Bought the Series 7 a few months ago and have been using regularly since then. As some other reviewers noted, it's really heavy (prob about 300 lbs) so make sure you have an area cleared for it already (you can make some minor adjustments sliding it on its cardboard box).
The delivery and set up was smooth (30 bolts attached using allen key/screwdriver which was included). Mine was delivered with a speed sensor that was out of wack and caused an L-5/L-6 error. Using a pair of pliers and a small phillips screwdriver, I adjusted the speed sensor (like on a bike computer's speed sensor), but it was just bad. The company sent one right out and now it works beautifully.
The only caveat is the floor must be perfectly flat where the back of the treadmill will sit. I have mine in the garage and one wheel is the tiniest bit off the ground and causes a banging when I run on it. So I wedged some cardboard under there and it's fine.
I only run 8-10 minute mile pace on it, it seems a bit narrow when I'm going much faster (and the built in fan is great!).Get more detail about Bowflex Series 7 Treadmill.
