As the number one fitness machines available, treadmills are very popular at fitness locations and as home exercise equipment. Most consumers like to read treadmill reviews before they make a purchase in order to get the best value for their money. You may see many brands and models of treadmills advertised on television, but the advertisement may not be entirely accurate. Everything works well on TV, but often doesn’t perform in the same way when you have it at home. The same is true of treadmills, which is why reading treadmill reviews is important.
The best treadmill reviews are consumer reviews. Treadmills have many attractive features and the more expensive the model, the more features you can expect it to have. Through the treadmill reviews written by consumers that have used the machines you gain valuable information as to whether or not these features actually work. For example, if you are a first-time treadmill user, who would you want to pay thousands of dollars for a machine that you may tire of in a few months? Home treadmill reviews give you the names of the best treadmills in a particular price range and will tell you which ones are best for beginners.
According to the latest home treadmill reviews, the Healthrider Treadmills are the most popular because of their innovative features. The same company also manufactures Nordic Track, Reebok, and Weslo, as well as other popular brands. The HealthRider treadmill reviews will show you that this is a reasonably priced piece of fitness equipment and that it also carries a quality warranty on the motor. However, these treadmill reviews also go into details about specific models telling you which ones to avoid. For example, according to home treadmill reviews, the Healthrider S500X! is not a good buy because of the small motor.
With consumer reviews, treadmills have to live up to their reputation. If you buy a treadmill that doesn’t work properly and you don’t receive good service from the manufacturer, you will certainly want to write a review warning others to avoid this model. Consumers are not the only ones who read these reviews as companies regularly review them to see where they can make improvements to the products. Posting treadmill reviews online is one way to get a manufacture’s attention, especially if all your other efforts have failed.
Treadmill reviews are good places to find some independent treadmill information.

Overview
Weslo (owned by Icon Fitness) is currently producing four
treadmills: the Cadence C22, the Cadence 340 CS, the Cadence
255DR, and the Cadence C78. The prices range from $199 to $699
and the uses cover walking, jogging, and running.
Weslo Cadence C22
The Cadence C22 is Weslo’s entry for walking only. The major
plus for the Cadence C22 is it’s cost, at $199 it’s hard to go
too far wrong. The major negatives are that the track is not
cushioned and the user must adjust the incline angle manually.
Not having a cushioned track means that it will be harder on the
user’s back and joints. Adjusting the incline by hand means that
the user will have to get off the treadmill to change the
incline.
Weslo Cadence 340 CS
The Cadence 340 CS is a step above the Cadence C22 and will
allow the user to jog on the treadmill. The motor is
significantly larger than on the C22 (2.0 hp vs 1.0 hp) and the
track is cushioned. These features will allow the user to jog.
The treadmill is not suitable for running as the track length is
still a littler shorter than I would like, at 45″ it is still
significantly shorter than many treadmill tracks on the market.
Weslo Cadence 255DR
The Cadence 255DR is another step up in features and in cost.
The price is $699, up from $399 for the Cadence 340 CS. The big
feature that you get for that price is that the treadmill has a
power incline. So, the user can adjust the incline while
exercising, without getting off the treadmill. The only negative
for this treadmill is that the track is still a little short
(still 45″), so it is not suitable for running.
Weslo Cadence C78
The Cadence C78 is the best treadmill that Weslo sells. At $699
it is the same cost as the Cadence 255DR, but it has a larger
motor (2.75 hp vs 2.0 hp) and a longer track (54″ vs 45″). It
also has the power incline and a heart rate monitor (whicdh the
Cadence 255DR also has).
Summary
Weslo has a treadmill targetted for the three major types of
treadmill users. If you are walking only you should look at the
Cadence C22, if you are going to walk and jog you will want to
look at the Cadence 340 CS, and if you are going to run
seriously the Cadence C78 is the model for you to look at.
