Best Treadmill For Home

There are various models of commercial treadmills available for use at home. If you are on the search for the best treadmill for home use, then we will offer you some suggestions and tips on going about choosing the correct one.

Treadmills do not come cheap, unless you are going for a second hand one, hence, you must choose wisely in order to make your investment worth it.

The first thing to do is to check it and try it out. Do not buy something without testing if it suits your requirements.
See if the equipment is stable and check the belt. It should be at least 18 to 20 inches wide and 48 inches long. Do not go for narrow and short belts as they may trip and cause accidents.

The treadmill must have an emergency shut-off, side rails, sturdy and reachable safety bars, swinging arms.
The manufacturer must be a reliable one. Go for reputed brands.
Check the warranty cover, expected maintenance and service
The motor should be at least 2.5 to 3.0 h.p.
The speed range should be adequate for your use. Usually, 0.1 to 8 mph is recommended for walking and running.

Do not go for a noisy model, so that you do not disturb others while doing your workouts. Lastly, keep in mind the space at home where you wish to fit the Sunny manual treadmill.
