Justin’s Witty Comments:
Like other Ironman products, this is a cool looking treadmill. It’s big and heavy (the product is near 300 lbs) and really feels like it could take a beating. It has a powerful motor and all the doodads you would expect, and an impressive warranty to boot (although good luck getting warranty service from them). I liked the large, deep cupholders and thin slots perfect for an iPod.
All but the most serious of marathon runners couldn’t go wrong with this bad boy. Also consider the Bowflex 3, a similar treadmill from a more reputable company.
