Vision Fitness Treadmill Review

Vision Fitness has been in the business of making quality treadmill for a number of years. They are built by Johnson, which is the company that also makes Horizon treadmills. In addition to treadmills, they build elliptical trainers, fitness bikes and strength equipment for the home and commercial markets.

Vision's philosophy is to build treadmills using quality components. They don't skimp on their parts. The result is better than average products at a better value than most of their competitors. For example, they use 2.5" rollers. Larger rollers reduce the overall rotation of the belt. This extends the life of the rollers, motor, bearings and belt.

They offer a wide range of treadmills, from basic walking models to commercial grade. In addition, with a number of the models you have a choice of three different types of electronics — Simple, Deluxe and Premier.

Simple	Deluxe	Premier

If all you want is to change up the speed and incline, you can get get a Simple version. There is no reason to pay for frills when you don't need them.

If you want a selection of workout programs and wireless heart rate control, you have your choice of the Deluxe or Premier versions.

Our Review

What makes Vision Fitness treadmill attractive is the fact they are low maintenance. I was talking to a store manager who carried most of the models. He spoke highly of the durability and their impressive service record.

In addition, like how you can customize your treadmill, selecting from a variety of models and consoles. Speaking of consoles, we feel theirs are well designed. They have that perfect balance of functionality, without being overstated.

You also get generous warranties. The mid-range models come with a lifetime frame and motor warranty, 5-years parts and 1- year labor. The T9700S, T9700HRT, T9800S & T9800HRT have 10 year parts and 2 year labor warranty. This is a statement about the quality of the components.

Are only complaint is that Vision Fitness does not allow retailers to sell online, except for remanufactured models. Get with it Vision, your customers want the convenience of buying online.

If you don't mind shopping around and driving to various fitness equipment stores, then Vision is worth considering. If you want to buy online consider Smooth Fitness and Sole Fitness. Both build quality machines that have received "Best Buys" ratings.
