I have been looking for a treadmill for a long time so much so that my husband started making fun of me and said I was treating it like a house lol. But the thing is that there are so many companies to chose from that it's hard. Just wanted to say that after all my research and comparisons i finally went with a guy names Charles at KingsofCardio.com and ultimately ended up a happy customer. We purchased a Body-Solid treadmill and it did take about a month or so but everything was great. The best part about my experience was that the gentleman I purchased the treadmill from actually cared, or at least acted like he did, about my situation, and he was very informative. Definately an "A" for effort.
