Phoenix Easy-Up 516 Manual Treadmill Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am totally happy with this product! The operation is smooth and very quiet (the lack of a motor means I can walk while watching TV and almost forget that I am on a treadmill). Putting it together was a breeze and took less than ten minutes even with a 4-year-old "helping". I honestly didn't expect it to be as sturdy as it is for the purchase price, but I feel very secure when using it. It folds up exactly the way pictured (upright) with very little effort, and rolls to fit nicely in the space I have when I am not using it. If you have a coat closet or room between the couch & armchair, and NO under-bed or under-couch space, this model is ideal. I didn't expect much at all from the display/meter advertised, but now that I have used it I can honestly say it does what a friends' monitor does on a 1,000$ fully-motorised and computerised model (without the fancy heart/pulse monitor). If you want a workout machine to do the workout FOR you, you might not like this one & should pay the extra $500-1,000 for a fully-motorised version - the manual treadmill plus the built-in incline really do make you WORK (and that is precisely why I wanted it in the first place!). Two caveats: if you need an extra wide area in which to walk, you might want to look at another, or at least find one of these models to try out before buying. I don't find the average-width tread a problem and really like the open front end, but a friend that needs to walk with feet very widely spaced did have a bit of trouble.Also, this is a model for WALKERS more than RUNNERS (just My opinion, but again, that was one of the reasons I wanted it). All in all,I expect I will get MUCH more than My money's worth from this!
