Treadmills allow you to determine the pace, distance, and complexity of the workout based on your needs, all while watching television, talking on the telephone, or reading a magazine. Much easeir on sensitive joints like the knees and hips, treadmil walking and running surfaces are typicaly long, padded platforms that allow ample rom for a long stride and comfortable, low-impact walk or jog without the harsh contact of a concrete surface
While many different types, styles, and price ranges of treadmils exist, many of them offer unique features like a fold-up design for easy storage, an electronic display monitor showing speed, distance, workout time, incline level, and burned calories, and EKG grip pulses to monitor the heart rate while exercising. Regardless of the simple to complex features you may choose, treadmils offer an array of aerobic exercise opportunities that will provide long lasting beneficial cardiovascular results without a commute to the gym or a jog in the rain.

Should I buy the Nautilus T514 Treadmill?
Fantastic Treadmill with pr-level features
I stumbled upon this thing on closeout at a local sporting goods store. It was $1999 new, and I picked it up for $450! I couldn't believe it! I've been wanting a top-level treadmill for fifteen years and they have eluded me. Enough about that! Onto the treadmill...
We were checking it out at the store and the sales person showed me how it didn't move when he got on it. He weighs about 260 and I'm about 250. I tried it and it was smooth as glass. For that price, I had to get it. Only a fool would pass that deal up! We got the floor model, so it was already assembled.
We brought it home and it is a beast! It is quite heavy, so as to stand the heavy punishment of Clydesdales like me. The backlit LCD display is great to look at. It's in reverse (white characters on dark background). A great feature is the thumb controls for speed and incline. They are just great. It has two cup holders on the console and heart monitor sensors built into the handles.
What surprised me when I got the unit home and unpacked the bag (with all the manuals and such) was that there was a polar heart rate monitor! I didn't notice anything about that on the display. It's the chest strap type and broadcasts to the treadmill. This is a fantastic feature, so I don't have to squeeze the stupid handles all the time.
I've put a couple of miles on it and my kids have all given it a thorough rogering. They've done all the levels of incline and all the speeds and snatched the safety key out and all that. If it can stand they're consumer labs style of testing, then it's ready for action.
Good stuff!
Very please with this well built machine
I've ran 5-6 miles thus far and i'm very pleased with this treadmill. The quality is great, it's very well built, I feel it's going to last a long time. The assembly was very easy as well. The only complaint I would have I suppose is the short power cord. I hear you can't plug it into a surge protector as well, luckily for me the spot I wanted to plug it into had the outlet in the perfect position, otherwise it could've been a hassle.
It "Runs" Well
I've owned this treadmill for a little over a week now, so take this review for what it's worth.
I had no issue with the delivery experience. Amazon really seems to have their act straight when it comes to this part of the process as far as I can tell. I imagine delivery problems are akin to what makes the nightly news. Everything works just fine 95% of the time; it's only the 5% that goes wrong and makes the cut (and, subsequently, you get the rant reviews...understandably so; I'd be ticked too if I bought a $900 broke up piece of machinery). So I was lucky to be part of the 95%, with only a small irrelevant gash in the box with no damage whatsoever to the treadmill itself. As most of the reviews say, the thing is heavy. You can slide the box on a smooth surface if you're fairly strong, but unless you're a 'roid monster, don't think you can pick this thing up by yourself. Have a second pair of hands ready if you need to move the box around.
Putting it together took, maybe, 1/2 hour - 45 minutes. Most of the time took in getting the packing material off the parts and putting the thing where I wanted it. Aside from that, it's only a few steps in the process. Most of the nuts and bolts are already in place; it's just a matter of getting a few key ones in place and you're done. It does help to have another person to get certain things lined up so you could insert the bolt with no problem, but I don't think it would've been impossible to do it by yourself. The only glitch I had, and a minor one at that, was the need to get the treadmill's running mat centered once it was all put together. No biggie. Just needed to turn it on, a few twists of the accompanying allen wrench, and it was done. The manual shows you how to do it.
Turned it on for my first go and away I went.
I do like the white/blue digital display.
There seems to be enough different programs to keep me entertained for a while.
You can have 2 personal profiles to keep track of your calories and time spent on the treadmill. For some reason, it doesn't store distance. Perhaps I'm not doing it right. That's one of the minor gripes I have on the profile setting. Setting up the profile is no big deal, but it's not pretty intuitive as to how to retrieve or store the data. I get nervous I'm about to erase my profile and find myself having to refer to the manual to be sure I don't goof up. But I'll just attribute that to only having it for a week. The more I tinker, the more I'm "getting" it.
Unlike other reviewers, I actually think the little fan in the dash does a pretty good job. It has a low and high speed. Just enough of a breeze on the face to keep me comfortable. But that's just me; I suppose everyone has their preference.
A couple other minor quibbles:
I agree with another reviewer. Why the engineers thought to put the on/off button at the bottom-front of the machine is a mystery to me. Since the power chord is up toward the front too, I have the treadmill facing my wall (where the outlet is). So I have to duck under the handlebars to shut it off and on. Makes me think I'm going to slam my head someday if I'm not thinking. So yeah, the on/off button and the location of the power chord probably should have been thought through a little better.
I'm also not too keen on the beep sounds that happen every single time you push a button. Be nice if you could mute them.
But as I say, these are a couple minor quibbles in my mind.
To sum it up, a good experience so far. The treadmill has a real solid feel (and I'm a fairly big guy: 6' @ 250 pds.), doesn't make much noise at all (we have it downstairs and the only thing you hear upstairs, if you listen close, is the beep-beep-beep of pushing the buttons to set your profile or chose you program), and seems a really decent price for the quality (nothing like avoiding that sales tax on these big ticket purchases!). For peace of mind, and since this is a big ticket item to me, I bought the Square Trade warrenty. But I'm fairly confident I shouldn't have to use it if first impressions are of any indication. I'll try to remember to do a follow up in 6 months or so.
This is my first treadmill, so I'm certainly no expert, but if you're looking for one this one has this buyer's recommendation.
Solid commercial design. Best of breed
I read all the reviews and was very apprehensive about ordering this product. Others talked about receiving the u nit damaged in transit and others complained about needing to grease the gears, the short cord and location of the on/off switch. When it was delivered, I was waiting with my box cutter and opened it when the delivery man was still there. Surprise! No damage, not even a scratch! Assembly was a snap, my dog Sophie could have put it together.
There is no longer a need to grease anything, Obviously, someone listend and the unit is now greased at the factory. The cord is short and this is necessary by the high current motor and this also explained the location of the switch. I planned for this and located the unit appropriately. The unit is high grade, very solid and meant to last for years.
I have diabetes and could not jog outside regularly in the Texas heat. I wasan effort for me to go out there once again to jog around the same neighborhood. I now watch my favorite TV programs and jog on this machine for 5 miles every night. Now I don't have to worry about the weather, the dogs or the snakes and I am doing something other than SITTING while watching TV. I waited for years to buy a treadmill and this was the one I was waiting for.
10,000 Calories Burned Under the Sea
For those of you that do not live in North Dakota, just know that we get absolutely insane winters that last 8-9 months with sustained temperatures of -20 (not including the wind chill). While Lewis Black would classify this as a "national emergency," I call it "home." However, despite being able to tolerate the intense winters, I cannot go running during that time as jogging in 2 feet of snow is incredibly difficult if not dangerous.
Enter the Nautilus treadmill... and just in time for winter no less!!
I've only had the Nautilus treadmill for about three days now but I've already used the device heavily and have been greatly impressed by it's quality. After spending an hour trying to unpack the 300lb monstrosity by myself I finally got to see the highly digital layout of the treadmill itself. Unlike other treadmills I've owned the Nautilus has a full digital readout with control on the arm grips. The entire front panel is one large LCD screen with multiple readouts including heart-rate, exact speed, estimated calorie loss, incline, etc. This is somewhat standard on other lesser quality treadmills, but the Nautilus has a very easy-to-read blue and white LCD display that is quick to reference while jogging. Meanwhile, I can check my heart rate with the meter embedded in the metal grips, that measure your pulse while you casually grip the sides. This is very handy as most treadmills, I've noticed, require a clip-on pulse meter that becomes just another thing plugged into you.
Another thing I liked about the Nautilus was it's overall strength in frame and quality. Most treadmills cannot support much weight while the Nautilus can support 350lbs, which is good for me since I'm just over 300 (I'm also 6'5). I can jump around on the treadmill all I need and not have to worry about the device telling me that it is not a freight scale and demand I remove my gargantuan hide off of it like my Wii Fit does. Fortunately, the device comes with an extended frame warranty in case I do break it. Meanwhile, while I cannot truly objectively compare the Nautilus to other treadmills (I think I've used three in my entire lifetime), I can say that I do not feel as though I'm walking on pavement while maintaining a 5-7mph jog. I won't go as far as to say the belt is "ample," but it's certainly not concrete either. Plus, I do not have trouble with the supplied space given my height and proportionately sized long legs. This is a commercial treadmill and, as such, should have ample space (guess I did use the word, after all), for people of all kinds of heights.
The last set of features I liked about the Nautilus was the incline and just how fast the treadmill goes. My last treadmill could barely do the mile in under 10 minutes and could not incline without adjusting it from underneath with a ratchet set. With the Nautilus, I can go up to 12mp (a five minute mile), which, pretty much, is marathon speed. This gives any user, a high range of speeds from sluggish walk to Olympic speeds. I can recall spending the other night with my friends seeing how fast we could shoot M&Ms off the back with the treadmill at full speed. We didn't send them into the wall but it sure shot them out pretty darn fast. This may seem juvenile to many of you out there, however, I'm used to running outside only and the last treadmill I had access to was my parent's old clunker that had a max speed of 6mph... that and us guys were really bored the other day and had always wanted to try it (next time, we'll use raisins).
The Nautilus also can incline up to 15 degrees up bubble, which doesn't sound like a significant grade but it's incredibly wearing on anyone over extended periods of time. This is good since a good scenic hiking or running trail are in short supply for the good majority of us, especially if you live in the flat lands. If you want a real challenge, keep the incline on full as well as the speed and see how long you last. I lasted 10 seconds before I had to yank the emergency stop key out less I become embedded in the same wall as my M&Ms. Naturally, in case I do fall back too far the safety key (which should ALWAYS be clipped on to the user) will easily become unplugged and stop the machine.
All in all, I can see why many professional gyms use the Nautilus as their standard treadmills. Granted, I prefer running outside a LOT more than an indoor treadmill; however, when winter sets in I'm gonna be super glad I got this one. It's well worth the money!!
Update: After two weeks of prolonged use and now that it is snowing I've come up with a very effective exercise regimen that maximizes physical training and weight loss. I finally figured out how to program the track pre-sets to where it'll speed up .1mph after every minute until it reaches 6pmh and then steepens the grade after 15 minutes, and then slows down after 30 minutes. I'm trying to simulate the 4-mile hike I used to do around Mountain Lake on Orcas Island (Washington State) and it's worked out very well and all I have to do it hit pre-set 1 (there are over half a dozen) and off it goes. This treadmill continues to amaze me.
Peace out!
