Phoenix 98516 Easy-Up Manual Treadmill

The treadmill arrived within 3 days of order, and was put together in less than an hour. It is very easy to move the belt walk on and is sturdy (I'm 5'2")- my husband, who is 6'1" says the tread is too short for him. I wanted this model to keep outside (under cover) for rainy and snowy days, and am satisfied for the price.

The trend mill was really easy to set up. All the tools, bolts, and parts were self evident and except for the little calorie meter which was pretty smashed, were solid. It really does fold up nicely when put away and I really enjoy it. It is well worth the money and if you are looking for a treadmill that is inexpensive, try this one.

this treadmill is very easy to assemble, 2 person recommended to build, easy to use, no problems with it.

I am a college student, and I am very used to the gym at my school with the electric treadmills . I wanted to try a manual version because having the treadmill at home for the summer would be more convenient then shuffling to and from my campus just to use the gym. I have never used a manual treadmill and was biased to the electric -- and thought wrongly about the both of them as well.

Basically, an electric treadmill goes a set speed and your job is to catch up. With a manual treadmill you are powering it, so you control the intensity of the workout.

I usually walk a steady 3-4 miles per hour. On a manual treadmill I could not get a great, heart pounding, sufficient workout setting the speed to 3-4 miles per hour and walking along to the set speed of the belt. Minutes on the manual treadmill, I could definitely feel it. It's great because it makes you feel like you are actually doing something, but definitely a tough job after a while.

I'd say give it a try. This is a very good quality product and was extremely easy to set up. I don't regret the purchase.

Completely flawless transaction! The treadmill arrived very shortly after. I assembled it and its been working great ever since!!!:)
