Precor M 9.31 Treadmill Review

  Treadmill Articles

The Precor M 9.31 is an excellent treadmill, but it is pricey. Precor is one of the top 3 treadmill manufacturer. Their machines are found throughout healthclubs, and that commercial quality if found in their home models. If you want assured quality then you can't go wrong.

In talking to a saleperson at a local fitness equipment store, he mentioned that the service record is excellent.

You may want to consider a couple of other treadmills that are comparable in specs, but at a lower price like the Sole F85. The F85 is used for in-room service at the Hilton hotel chain and comes with a two year service warranty..
