Best place to buy a good treadmill?

[lauren170]

I'm cleared for walking after having a baby. Yay!!


What stores are good for buying a treadmill? I'm looking for something fairly high quality and very sturdy so my fast, 6' 3" husband can run on it too. Assembly in the home would probably be good too. Any recommendations or ideas on ways to get a good deal?

Congrats again Lauren!

We purchased all our equipment from Fitness Resource. They do in home assembly and are also authorized to do repairs (but we've never needed any). It was one of the reasons I chose them over Amazon or a big box store. I'd look to see if you have one, or similar store dedicated to gym equipment in your area.

Oh and at the end of each quarter they deeply discount floor models to make room for new ones.

We have a ProForm that we bought from Sports Authority, they matched the free delivery offer from the Proform website.

Congratulations!!!

I've also heard good things about Fitness Resource (although I have not purchased any equipment).

Congrats!

I got mine from CL. People buy them all the time, and then rarely use them so you get a brand new machine for cheap.

I'd love to do this but did you have to move it yourself? Was it heavy/hard to move? Did it fit in a regular car? We have a Honda CRV.

We paid the people a bit extra to deliver it.
