Anyone have a manual treadmill...?

21 years ago

Do any of you have a manual treadmill such as the EZ Walk Treadmill from QVC?

If any of you have a manual treadmill, would you please tell my how you like it? And give any advice you have about purchasing one?

Which is best, manual or automatic? I have already posted on Exercise and Nutrition so that I would increase my chances of getting a reply, Any help is greatly appreciated.

I don't have one, but I have used one in a gym. That one was a belt sort of thing that rolled under the feet as you took a step. The feeling was that my footing was not on something solid. It didn't feel "safe." This may have been just the way that particular one was made. The EZ Walk model may be different.

However, I don't think I would get one without trying it out personally. If it doesn't feel comfortable to you, you most likely will not use it.

I have one. It's really rough on your joints. It takes alot of pounding to move it. You should wear VERY cushy shoes.

I don't feel I'm making a mistake. I carefully looked many, many ranges over, including a Capital sitting on the floor a few feet from the Bluestar. It was a Precison and not the Culinarian, but it was enough to make a judgement. I felt the Bluestar was the superior range. I'm not saying the Capital is not a good range. Many people are thrilled with them. I just feel the Bluestar, for me, can't be beat. I don't need to fire up the burners to see how well they work. I've cooked long enough to be able to tell what I need to know by examining them closely. I have no doubts that the BS has very even heating burners. I also have no doubts that the CC does as well, judging from Trevor's excellent photos. I like the BS grates and quality, the arrangement and looks of the burners, the heft of the oven racks, the slick interior of the ovens (which should make them easy to clean), the way the oven racks operate, the overall build quality, and the looks, better than any of the several other "high end" ranges I looked at. I am at peace and have absolutely no doubt left in my mind. The hardest part was settling on a color. When two ranges are both good and put side by side, the choice becomes a very personal one. It's nice to have choices. Sandy

" I want to find a professional licensed repair company for product warranty service. " That will depend on the treadmill manufacturer who the repair company is. Although I suspect that this is the first of what will be a two part spam post.
