The Epic T60 is a ICON treadmill primarily available through Costco.
As of this review there were no web site selling online.
With
the Epic T60 you get an impressive array of features, but at $800
there has to be some compromise. That comes with the quality of
the parts. Which is reflected in the limited warranty.
Furthermore,
this treadmill should be considered primarily a walking machine.
If you plan to jog or run you want to spend upwards of $1,300+.

"I
just bought an Epic t60 from Costco for under 1000. Works great,
goes up to 12mph. I am 6' and 185 pounds and spend most of my time
between 6:40 and 5:40 pace and it has been handling quite well the
pounding I have been putting on it.
You
can also get some information on the T60 Treadmill from the following
Runner's
World Forum. Generally
very postive reviews.
The
current price at Costco appears to be $799, and rumor has it they
have a good return policy. That price does not include delivery.
So make sure you bring a big SUV or a pick-up truck. If you are
not currently a Costco member you will have to join. In general, Costco discounts treadmills more than any other dealer. They offer some great value on their treadmills, you just have to deal with a lack of knowledgeable salespeople.
One
drawback with the T60 is Icon's warranty service. The quality of
their service can be erractic.
A similar
treadmill with a good warranty is the Smooth
5.65. It usually is priced at $999, which includes delivery.
But only to your driveway. You can get inside delivery and set for
approximately $100 more. Treadmill gave this model a favorable review.
