Treadmill buying guide
While there is no question about the effectiveness of the treadmill, most people have little knowledge of what to look for when buying the same. Certain factors which should be kept in mind while purchasing the same are:
- Type: There are two types of treadmills available—the manual and the motorised treadmill. The price difference between the two is about INR6000 to INR10000. Hence the choice definitely depends on the budget. Needless to say that motorised treadmills come with a lot of features and are much more effective than a manual one.
- Motor and its horsepower: This depends on the weight of the people using the same. Usage by heavier people puts a greater strain on the motor. But instead of the horsepower ratings, the “continuous duty” rating of the motor needs to be checked. It is also wise to purchase a treadmill which has the longest warranty on its motor.
- Stability: The treadmill should be checked for both stability and sturdiness before making a purchase. A jerky or unstable treadmill does more harm than good.
- Workout features: Having a variety of pre-programmed workout features relieves the user of boredom that might otherwise set in. Hence features such as the ability to vary both the incline as well as the pace should be present in the treadmill. Some workout features which also need to be checked are:
- Belt size should be able to match the stride of the user,
- Speed,
- Incline and
- Cushioning so as to be able to absorb shocks while running.
- Check for noise and space: These are two very important things that need to be checked since there is nothing more irritating than a noisy treadmill. Also if the same does not sync in with the space available for its installation, it will become more of a hindrance and an eyesore than an object of use.
Best Treadmill Brands
The most popular brands associated with the manufacture of the treadmill are:
- Powermax,
- Aerofit,
- Cosco,
- Lifeline,
- Healthgenie,
- Viva etc.
The cost of the motorised treadmill is considerably higher than the one which are not. But the overall price range for the same can be taken to start from INR8000 and go up to even 1.3lace or even more. Hence treadmill buying depends as much on its features as on the budget of the customer. It would, however, not be wrong to say that it is a gadget with a very high return on investment.
