We purchased the LifeSpan TR 3000 Treadmill to help us with our exercise routines. We have been researching fitness equipment for over a year and this treadmill had a lot of positive reviews...and to be quite honest in watching the Biggest Loser they seem to use the treadmill and bike the most during their workouts so those are the items we chose to buy. Between my husband and myself, we use it to walk / jog about 5 miles 3 days a week and use the bike 2 of the other days. It is solid. The motor is very quiet, and doesn't even flinch when my husband jogs (245 lbs). The handlebar speed and incline buttons are great! The running surface is nice at 20" wide.

The drawbacks were nominal but wanted to mention. The machine is big and heavy - so have others there to assist when assembling. We had to take our unit to the basement and my husband got some help from a neighbor and a furniture dolly. It took about a week from the time that I ordered until the time I got a call from the delivery company. I am not sure if this is for all deliveries but the driver would not bring this into our house. He did put it in the garage until my husband got home.

I would strongly recommend this treadmill.
