  1. Hi! New here, so please forgive if this question has been
    covered a thousand and two times! I have an opportunity to
    buy a Landice 8700 treadmill for $1100. It has been
    reconditioned with new belt, etc. I've seen it, walked on
    it, and pretty much like it. It's quiet and does not have
    alot of bells and whistles which is fine with me - only
    speed, incline and stop/start/pause buttons. It will do
    caloric usage also, but no heart monitor, which is
    superfluous anyway to me. It is five years old and will have
    a limited warranty (6 months parts, 3 months labor). Just
    wanted to see if this is a good deal or not? I will not be
    running, will only be using it for walking two to four miles
    three times/week. DH may use for running, but only
    occasionally. We are both normal height and weight so it
    will not have undue stress or wear due to that.

    Appreciate any feedback you can give or if this is not good,
    what is the best treadmill (basic, not with a lot of
    programming on the 'dashboard'😉? I know about the low end
    ones and will not get those - I'm talking about the higher
    plane of treadmills such as True, Landice, Pacemaster, Life
    Fitness, etc.). I prefer to get one used rather than new due
    to their high cost. Figure they're made well enough for
    commercial use, one should last through my occasional use.

    Thanks! Thea

    Love my TRUE 550 hrc. So treadmills yes, Landice? Look
    around for a local dealer they may be able to do better with
    limited warranty also.

  4. This post isn't really about a treadmill. It's about using
    the word superfluous in a sentence. I find it incohexible,
    to say the least.

    Thanks! I have checked him out, but haven't sent an
    email. Will do so


    today. This is a major expenditure to me and I really don't
    want to spend more than I had indicated for the cost of this
    one, but I also want a good machine that will last.
    According to my research, Landice is up there in terms of
    quality, etc. I will do a bit more research though before
    making a final decision. Thanks again for the input!
