I am looking for a good sturdy treadmill that I can use for running at least 30 miles per week on. I had a Pro-form which was a peice of junk. I would like to pay under $1000 if possible. Do you have any recommendations? If you were to purchase a treadmill in this range, which one would it be? What are your thoughts about buying a treadmill off craigslist?

Comment on NordicTrack Commercial 1500 Treadmill by Steve

I purchased the NordicTrack 1500 commercial treadmill after doing a little research and reading some reviews. It’s obviously not the most expensive treadmill in the world, but I thought that it would be dependable and that it would serve me well. How wrong I was. (My previous treadmill, from a different company and half the price of this one, lasted 2 years before it had any problems)

I bought this treadmill in March of 2010. I use the treadmill 5 to 6 days a week (when it works). In fact, I utilize the online workout service that NordicTrack advertises (which, by the way, is great). After only three months the drive pulley broke. It took NordicTrack 1 entire month to get it fixed.

Guess what? The machine broke again yesterday. This time it is the lift arm that helps with the incline function (It doesn’t even look like metal, but I’m not a metallurgist). I couldn’t believe it. Broken twice in only 6 months. Not exactly a quality product.

I have not used the machine beyond it’s stated capacities. I do the online workouts 5-6 days a week, and I weigh 210 pounds (not anywhere near the stated weight limit).

In addition, customer service has been downright rude (especially this last time). They prefer to argue with you rather than help you. They treated me as if I had done something wrong, even though it’s their “quality” machine that has broken twice in 6 months yet has been used according to their instructions. Who knows how long it will take them to fix it this time?

My advice, steer clear of this treadmill and NordicTrack. There is no way this treadmill would hold up in a commercial venue let alone in your home.

Justin I am looking for a mid-range treadmill. Between $500-$700. Lots of information out there. Not sure what to trust. If you were to purchase one treadmill in this range, which one would it be?

How much noise do you think the neighbor below me will hear? If I am running will they hear the treadmill pounding? I don’t want to have the neighbors below bothered if I have a treadmill above them? Appreciate your input.

Hi Mike! You are certainly correct – I’ve updated the post. Whoops!

I was initially super-impressed with this machine. It cranks up to 12 mph, the sound is loud over the belt, belt is long and rails are out of arms way. Three months in the belt started jerking very slightly, especially at higher speeds. It grew more frequent and finally jerked to a stop when I was doing an interval at 6 mile pace…SCARY! I am returning this immediately. No fix would make me feel it was safe.

I think you made a mistake in detailing this machine..it has a 1.5 hp drive not the 2.5 you said it had.
