You might be wondering quite a bit at this question, however. What’s wrong with something that’s cheap? The cheaper the better right? Yes, to an extent, but at some point the price tag can turn into a serious detriment. The build quality is going to be an important purchasing point, even if you need to spend a little bit more money for it. Just like anything, you really get what you pay for when purchasing even exercise equipment. Treadmills are just the same: The cheaper you get them for, the more likely the build quality isn’t there. And that turns into a safety issue.

Safety is going to be paramount when you’re using your treadmill, and for obvious reasons. What you have is a belt that’s moving at a good rate of speed, and you’re running on it. The stresses and strains put on the mechanisms are going to be considerable. Every foot step you make is going to make a pretty good “thud” against the machine, and if the quality of the treadmill isn’t there, you’re going to break something relatively quickly. Hopefully you won’t get hurt in the process. That’s why even if you have to spend some more money than you might want to on a treadmill, it’s probably still a good investment to go for one that’s been well reviewed. Check out the usual review sites (I like epinions and Amazon) for reviews on where to find a good cheap treadmill that will last you for years of use. Buying something that’s on sale for a couple hundred bucks is not going to do any good when it breaks a year down the line and you have to buy a new one. I think we can all agree on that point.

Really, you need to stick to good retailers when you buy any type of exercise equipment. Trusted retailers. Retailers that you know that are going to offer product support and a strong warranty. Better yet, you want to know that the people selling you the treadmill know that it’s a good product from the start. You should go into the stores and actually talk to people who have used it and sold it for a long time. That’s how you know that you’ll get a safe cheap treadmills. Anything else is going to be risking it.
