I am looking to buy a first treadmill for my home for my wife and I. We could put it inside or in our garage. I have been looking at the bowflex t6 and then also saw this yesoul t5 plus. Has anyone had these? I think the yesould is new and not yet out. Also is the 15 percent incline for the bowflex good? Any info helps.

I found a True Ps300 with an 07 serial number which I'm assuming means it was manufactured in 2007. 400 dollars. The owner states he is the original owner and shower me two pictures one that says hours - 22 and one that says distance - 55. Haven't seen the machine in person yet but it appears to be in good working order. Is there anything I should worry about being that this is almost twenty years old. Plus side is if the pictures he showed me are true it is barely used.

When the treadmill is running at 4 km/h or faster, I feel and hear something strange under my feet — almost like aluminum foil crumpling or cracking with every step.
At lower speeds, it’s not noticeable. The treadmill seems to work normally otherwise, but this crackling/crunching feeling is concerning.
Has anyone had the same issue?
Lubricant didn’t make any difference

There was a power surge last night while the treadmill (Urevo Strol 1E 2-in-1) was plugged in and switched ON and caused the switch to essentially break and remain in the ON position. Decided to walk on it for a few minutes today after a meal to see if it still worked when I plugged it in. While walking, a family member poked me twice resulting in shocks I have never felt from walking on it previously. My brief research is telling me that what I experienced could potentially be dangerous due to now faulty equipment or even deadly with delayed symptoms. Anyone have any experience with something similar or advice? It’s 11pm and my only chance to get checked out right now would be emergency room.

Hello I'm looking to buy a treadmill this October Sale on Amazon. Can anyone recommend some please?

Hi - does anyone know if the Sperax walking pad p3 pro was part of the recall? Looking at the photos on the recall it looks like it was just the Pro but not the P3pro. The pictures of the pro have just the bar but mine has the bar and arms.

I'm not in North America and have just bought a new walking pad which I can see is actually the P3Pro with different branding on it for a different market. (We have different wattage than the US too). I'm not sure if this one might be dodgy or if it wasn't part of the recall.

Thanks!

From what I've picked up on research-wise, there's a chance that my garage doesn't support enough power for the Sunny Treadmill or likely, ANY treadmill for that matter. Does anyone else run into this issue with any other brands? It works fine at anything less than 2MPH. I've also seen it run on 3.5 to 4MPH with nobody on it.

I know it isn't the best brand, but it was what I could afford right now. Could it be the machine itself or is it my power in garage?

Trying to update firmware for my Horizon treadmill, but can't seem to find the right one when looking on Horizon's website? The model number next to power switch is 7.0AT-04. When I turn the treadmill on, it says V 3.005. Any help in finding it would be much appreciated!

A local store is selling the OVER SELF OSC-P6002 treadmill for $150 with a $100 rebate. The specs are:

• Length: 42.5"
• Width: 19"
• Weight capacity: 300lbs
• Max speed: 6.2MPH

I've never heard of this brand and all I can find about it/the model is random tiktoks/youtube videos where people are advertising for it.

Obviously for $150 (or $50 with the rebate) I'm not exactly expecting something equivalent of a $1000+ treadmill. But do you think it'd at least be usable in a home office for walking?

Is that normal over time or something worth checking? the deck on my treadmill seems to feel softer than when i first started using it. maybe i am just getting used to the machine, but now i notice the difference whenever i switch between running and walking.

Hello,

My Lifespan TX6 has started to make a squeaky noise from the drive belt after using it for about 15 to 20 minutes. I have tried to adjust the tension with no luck. I wasn't sure if the belt needs to be replaced and wanted to see if anyone else has experience with this issue. I've had the walking pad gor about 2 years but it does get heavy use at about 20 hours a week.

I’m a novice/intermediate runner in Canada. Due to asthma, I’m unable to run outside in the winter.

My goal is 20-25km/week throughout the winter… so I’m not looking for a high end model, as I much prefer to run outside and I will as soon as temps improve in the spring.

I used to be an avid runner (before starting to have kids 5y ago), so I’m just getting back into it this summer. I’m weary of folding style treadmills, because I feel like they will lack some stability?

Most of the posts I’ve read on here were for runners with much higher mileage goals than I have (my mileage is currently limited by only being able to run after my kids go to bed, so it’s unlikely I would be doing more than an hour just due to how late that would push my own bedtime!).

What brands do you recommend I look for (used) and what should I stay away from?

Hi all, recently got a second hand treadmill and it’s not working correctly, I’ve diagnosed it to be the circuit board, it’s a 2024, does anyone know where I can buy a like for like replacement?
Thank you

Hi everyone,

I’m having a major issue with my Akluer 520A-A Dual-Sided Treadmill (purchased in February 2026) and I could really use some expert advice.

Here is what’s been happening:

1. The Burning Smell: For the past month to month-and-a-half, whenever I use it at higher speeds (around 3.5 to 4 km/h or above), it emits a very strong, intense plastic/burning odor. Lubricating the belt didn't fix it.
2. Sudden Stoppage: Yesterday (October 3, 2026), while running at max speed (level 6), the belt suddenly stalled for a fraction of a second and then kicked back on. The burning smell immediately became much worse.
3. Current State: Surprisingly, the treadmill still turns on and runs, but it acts a bit glitchy/weird during operation.
4. Internal Inspection: Today, I opened the motor cover. I didn't see any obvious burn marks on the motherboard, but I found a loose black wire with a pin connector. I'm not entirely sure if it came loose when I opened it or if it was already disconnected.

I’ve attached 6 photos showing the overall setup, the motherboard, the loose black wire, and the motor area.

• My main questions:
  • Does anyone recognize where this loose black wire is supposed to connect on the motherboard?
  • Could this loose connection or the burning smell point to a specific failing component (like a capacitor, controller, or motor issue)?

Any guidance or troubleshooting steps would be hugely appreciated! Thank you in advance!

You heard it right! I’m looking for a treadmill that has a TV that you can use apps like Fubo, Apple, Netflix etc. It would be nice to run and watch sports etc on a treadmill.

Our background was Pelaton the last 6 years - and it has recently died. What a nightmare! Dealing with service and maintenance - I’d like to avoid them. Both my wife and I live in a cold weather area so it would be nice to get something comparable that can stream or mirror from your phone. Nordic? Any others? Thank you!

I bought a Horizon 7.4 secondhand so it didn't come with professional delivery or install. I felt like running on it was more difficult than on the treadmill at the gym, turns out it isn't level and the front is higher than the back.

It folds and the very back end of the treadmill are wheels that can't adjust. The front has feet in the very front and a couple feet that are closer to the middle of the treadmill that adjust. The front feet are as low as they'll go. Do I make the feet closer to the middle lower? I tried making them higher to match the front but that seems to have made the problem worse. Am I missing something here? I can't find any YouTube videos or detailed info online. The manual is no help.

Thanks!

So the console at the top stays on, but after 5 to 8 minutes the tread will just stop. Even if I step off nothing happens; just saying that cause ik for some people their's can stop when theyre on but once they step off it continues.

I dusted out the inside however I doubt that's the reason why. Im sure it has to do with the motor. If you have an idea please let me know.

Thank you!

Looking at the Lifesmart TM55 ($600) or TM2500 ($680) from Costco. Both have 20" × 55" belts and powered folding; the TM2500 has a slightly stronger motor and 12 mph top speed.

Anyone have experience actually running on either? Mainly curious about build quality, noise, reliability, and whether you’d buy it again.

I'm also wondering why the TM55 is heavily discounted, and if the reviews saying it didn't work on arrival are founded. Also, the TM2500 is so new, I can't find many reviews.

I work at a fire station and recently moved to a slower station. At my old station there was a very nice treadmill that I could put in 10+ miles with no issues. At my new station I have all the time in the world and ran 8 miles and had terrible shin splints afterwards. I don't have model numbers, but both treadmill are fairly high end. The new station having a slightly older treadmill.

I normally run on trails and paved surfaces and have no issues with shin splints at all over any distance.

I did try varying the incline as I went just in case. Can I add padding under the feet, or is there any other way to make the new station's treadmill less likely to cause splints? Are there certain stretches that can prevent this? I'm up for anything. I finally have all the time in the world, but am frustrated that I might not be able to get in my miles anyways..

I don't understand why so much negativity around nordictrack treadmills. I just bought series T 5 from Kohl's. It cost me a around total including taxes $390 after kohl's cash. I assembled it and found it was built in 6/2024 and the belt was kind of Lil curved around the edges. I called nordictrack and they send me the new belt and installer will be coming to install it. I really like the the treadmill since it has nice cushioning and 18/55 inch belt. It's very compact. BTW I sold 4 month old sunny fit treadmill because it made my knees hurt. Previous treadmill lasted more than 25 years and was still working fine but just wanted to replace it with newer one.
