It is a simple how to buy a treadmill guide.

Let’s get started with the questions of why and where to buy a treadmill…

Why Buy a Treadmill

When buying anything you need to bear in mind how you are going to use it.

Thinking like this stops you getting distracted and simply buying the biggest shiniest one then regretting doing so when you realise it does not do suit your needs.

Write down how you plan to use your treadmill for. If it is for an elderly relative, they are probably not going to want to run on it, so a choice of high speeds is not important, but they will still want to monitor their heart rate and maybe be able to read a book while exercising.

Bearing in mind who is going to use the treadmill and how they are going to use it is key to buying the right kind.

Where to Buy a Treadmill

There are several places to buy a treadmill online and off line.

The best place to buy a treadmill depends on your personal circumstances.

However, you absolutely need to do the following:

Only buy from an established retailer – it is very important to buy your treadmill from an established dealer or retailer. It is the best way to ensure that you get the support you need.

Buy one with a good warranty – when buying a treadmill you need a good warranty. They get a lot of use, so suffer from a great deal of wear and tear. For this reason, you need to look for one that offers a good warranty. That way if a part fails you can get it replaced free of charge.

Buy from a retailer that offers the best price – running machines are not cheap, but by shopping around you can save yourself money. Just do not buy from a retailer you do not know or trust. There are fake treadmills out there, so you need to be careful to avoid buying one of those.

Take into account the cost of delivery – speaking of price ask about delivery costs before buying.

Some firms charge a fortune, so you need to factor that in before actually making your purchase.

The Best Place to Buy a Treadmill

Our advice is that wherever possible to buy your treadmill direct from the manufacturer.

Here is why we believe this is the best approach.

Buy the real thing – buying direct from the treadmill manufacturer is the best way to make sure that you are not buying a cheap fake and being ripped off.

Get the best support – the manufacturer usually offers the best support. When you buy direct from the manufacturer you always get access to the full warranty.

This is not always the case when you buy from a third party.
