I recently made a trek to the big city to check out the Life Fitness treadmills. In particular, I tried out the Life Fitness T5-0, which is their mid-range home treadmill. A very impressive machine that ran extremely smooth, and was very quiet.Â
I spoke to Brandyn Strother, at US Fitness, and out of the various brands on the floor he had the most positive reviews of this particular model. He mentioned that the Life Fitness T5-0 was a low maintenance machine, and that the company customer service was one of the best.
However, we both agreed that the design of the console was abit annoying. You can find out why and learn more a my Life Fitness T5-0 Review.Â
If there is a new hot trend in treadmills, it is models equipped with TVs. This concept makes sense. Walking or running in place can be very boring. As hard as you try, you never get anywhere, and the scenery never changes. That is why you find rows of televisions in front of the treadmills at health clubs. 
I recently had the opportunity to go out to Logan, Utah and visit the Icon Fitness plant, where they build NordicTrack treadmills. Prior to my trip I had a rather negative view of Icon because of their budget models built under the Weslo, Image and ProForm name. I was surprised to find out that under the NordicTrack name they were building some impressive machines. 
Of course, I have to start out by saying the best treadmill reviews online are from my site. With each review I try to explain the nature of the product and how it will fit your fitness goals. I discuss quality, the company reputation, warranties and more. In addition, when available I include customer testimonials. You can check them out at
