Smooth treadmills, in my opinion are the best buy treadmills anywhere online or off. They pack heaps of features into a durable, quality machine that is priced just right. Anyone who is looking for a treadmill for their home gym or office should seriously consider a Smooth Treadmill.
These treadmills are manufactured by Smooth Fitness who have been around for over 20 years. If you have heard of them it's because they are predominantly an online only retailer. They come highly recommended by Runner's World, Prevention Magazine and Treadmill Doctor to name a few.
Because they are an online business they don't have the same overheads that a normal bricks and mortar business would have. As a result they are able to pass on these savings directly to you the customer.
What does all this mean you might ask...well quite simply "factory direct prices!" There is no middle-man so you save 40% - 45% off the normal retail price.
You could quite easily pay $3000 to $5000 for Smooth treadmills but they are very well priced at between $999 and $2999. There is a treadmill for every budget.
In the low-priced end of the range the Smooth 5.15 treadmill is excellent value for money. This includes a 10 year motor warranty. If you can't afford this treadmill I highly recommend saving a bit more until you can. As I've said in other articles just you can't expect to pay $500 for a treadmill and get a high quality, durable machine!
The Smooth 7.1 treadmill and Smooth 9.15 treadmill are both great treadmills in their own right. With Treadmill Doctor rating the 7.1 as the "best buy" in the $1000 - $1500 price range and the 9.15 as "one of the best values in the Smooth lineup"
Advantages
Too many to mention here. Including 10 year motor warranty to save you costly repairs, stacks of benefit laden, inbuilt control features, amazing price for people with either cheap or expensive budgets.
Disadvantages
Very few. They do charge extra for inside delivery and setup but at least they offer this service unlike some other companies.
Recommendation
In conclusion, I highly recommend Smooth treadmills. Apart from the extra cost for indoor delivery and set up, Smooth treadmills could probably be one of the "best buy" treadmills on the internet. A true diamond in the rough!
