Merit Fitness 725T Treadmill

I would have to say I researched buying a treadmill for some time and came upon this one for many reasons. 1. it was in my price range. I also saved $87 dollars on the shipping. As for shipment , it came fast and was in mint condition. Setup, was easy. This machine is a sturdy piece of equipment. Doesn''t feel cheap. I will say I wish it would fold up more vertical but with all the features it is more than satisfactory. If your looking for something durable and effective for your exercise needs this will surely be the purchase.

We had a horrible experience with this treadmill. It arrived non functioning. Customer support takes forever to contact and most of the time offers an option to leave a number for a call back that never once came. After two visits from a tech and two seperate parts deliveres, the treadmill still didn''t work. Merrit/Horizon/Johnson Health evidently told the tech they would replace it, but did not make any attempt to contact me. I called again and after being on hold for 30 minutes, was forced to leave my number and a message. Still no call back. I would not buy anything from this company, Horizon or Johnson Fitness ever again.

On the positive side, one quick call to Amazon got me a full refund and free pickup of this large, useless item. Amazon.com really stepped up and took care of the situation in one call. They''re paying to pick it up and I don''t even have to take it apart and put it in the box. Fantastic service from Amazon.

I''ve been in the fitness industry for over 10 years and have always been leary about buying a "cheap" home machine. This treadmill works great for home use. I was thoroughly impressed. I''m 230lbs and I can run on it with no problems! Great machine for the money!

Some bolts hard to install. No reference to have to find the on/of switch to start it up. It''s near the right front at floor level. Not a convenient location. Hard to lubricate base for tread belt, not much room. After setup and getting it started my wife is very happy with it. She really likes the slow start up and slow down feature, instead of jumping on it at full speed. So far a good value for the price. The heart rate monitor is a little uneven, but it''s not that important to her. Have only tried two exercise modes which did both work.

I''m really happy with this treadmill. I can''t tell the difference between this one and much more expensive models. It has preset routines, automated incline, pulse monitor, a cup holder. It''s sturdy to walk on and absorbs impact for a cushy run. Runs smoothly and quietly. And has a lifetime warranty. And free shipping!
