If you are thinking about a Weslo treadmill, bear in mind that this is one of the lowest cost brands on the market.

#1 Manual treadmills increase the strain on your back, hips and knees.

Many of the models in the Weslo range are manual. This means you need the deck at an incline and you provide the power to move the belt. This is hard, uncomfortable work that you don't want to sustain for long.

#2 If you buy a motorized treadmill, it will run better with a small incline.

Weslo motorized treadmills tend to have low power motors. By using a small incline, it will take some of the strain of the motor and will run better.

#3 Weslo treadmills are more suited for walking rather than jogging.

Short, narrow belts and low power motors make them treadmills for walking.

#4 Weslo have just improved their product quality.

They've started buying in high quality components from China and are able to maintain the same value pricing they've always offered.

#5 Their Warranty Sucks.

Standard warranty of 90 days suggest a lack of confidence in their product. Treadmills are expensive to repair.

#6 The 30 Day Trial Can Be Expensive.

First off, there's a 10% charge if you return the machine. They also deduct the shipping costs to and from you. Shipping charges are a large chunk of the cost.

You could be really disappointed with how much you get for your refund.

#7 You get what you pay for.

If your budget is less than $300 then by all means go ahead and get a Weslo treadmill. They do provide value at that price. If you have a little more to spend then Proform are worth a look.
