    Don’t even think about using this for anything but light walking. It is underpowered, poorly made, has a short belt (50″ is not suitable for running unless you are 4″ tall), and is made by Proform. There are plenty of better treadmills in this price range, so unless this falls to $300 I couldn’t even recommend it based on it being a good value.
