Important factors about buying treadmill

Before you purchase a treadmill, make sure you know those specs below, which are very important factors for a treadmill.
1.Treadmill type (folding vs. non-folding)
Folding treadmills are only suitable for walking, if you want to do a lot of running, it is highly recommended to buy non-folding treadmill, because it has better shock absorption design than folding treadmill.
2.Motor size
Typically motor size should be 2.5 to 3.5 HP continuous duty, the other factor you should notice is warranty, and for those which have less than 10-year warranty treadmill, it is not worth thinking buying it.
3.Frame structure ( steel vs. aluminum)
Aluminum is in the same quality as steel, but less price competitive than steel, and we recommend you choose steel frame.
4.Treadmill weight
Treadmill weight is important for stabilization, especially for running, based on the price information, we recommend those treadmills whose price is over $1,000, the treadmill weight should be over 200lbs, for those whose price is over $2,000, the weight should be over 300lbs.
5.Deck
Choose 3/4 thick solid wood deck and this is the only chose.
