Long term review....failed after 3 months.
Long term review..
Month three..
Used 2 hours per day almost every day.
Lubricated twice
Machine started running hot....over 230F under hood.
Machine started spitting out odd plastic shavings.
Machine came to a sudden stop while I was on a 4mph 36 min walk.
Waiting for resolution from company.
Good product just not sure on reliability
Got new motor got new motor belt....all good now
Quiet as a mouse.
But bad instructions.
And odd maintenance.
I bought my machine about a month ago.
I and my gf both use it each day for a total of 4+ hours a day. Weekend and days that are nice we go out to walk.
Its quiet as a mouse! I can walk or she can walk and the other can watch TV or do work no problem.
For indoor walking its perfect way to get 10k steps while listening to audable to watching TV.
Here are the issues.
1. Instructions are horrible! They are not easy to understand and it took me an hour to get the remote connected to the device. I still have no clue how to get the blue tooth to work. And it didn't say anything about lubrication of the best. Yes you should lube the belt! Instructions are online and they give you lube.
2. You should put it on a good matt. It doesn't have any shocks and if you have a heavy step like my gf.....you will shake your house. So get a yoga mat or some high density foam and put this on it.
3. It seems to collect more dust than you think...so wipe it down before and after each use... just builds up a charge I guess?
4. After almost two months it started to squeal. This is where Instructions would have ben nice.
The belt was not off center so that wasn't it.
Put her on her side undid her screws to get to motor. Omg dusty from all the dirt it sucked in and yeah the little belt was making a sound. Now don't be like me and put a drop or two of lube on the belt to fix it.....doing so just made the belt slip and the machine not to work. Take a rag and a bit of rubbing alchohol and clean off the two pullies and the belt and that will fix the sound. On any other machine this wouldn't even be noticeable but since she is so quiet you will notice.
5. Small remote easy to lose. Put velcro on it and attach it to machine.
6. Buy treadmill dedicated shoes.
7. It runs hot....you will feel heat....guessing thats normal?
8. Nothing to tell you how tight your belts should be.... im still not sure if I've over tightened mine.
9. No online help.....
