It is better if they include the reputation and history of the manufacturer, history of the treadmill repairs, component quality, and the country where it is manufactured which is helpful in identifying the treadmill suited for you.

The ratings of every treadmill in the market differ from one another. Treadmills designs have additional features wherein some are useful but some are only added for gimmickry.

However there is a big difference between cheaper treadmills and those models recommended by professionals on their reviews amounting to 1000 dollars and above. The warranty of the treadmill matters. Usually less than 1000 dollars treadmills only have a warranty of 90 days.

But there are exceptions, some less than a 1000 dollars treadmill models offers a lifetime service warranty covering the motors and frames, 3 years on the parts and a one year service. Others offer a 20 year warranty on the motor, 3 year on the parts and a 1 year labor. These types of treadmills give you better insurance from breakdowns. This is helpful when you are planning to purchase a treadmill weighing 200 pounds and above.

Cheaper treadmills having a price less than 1000 dollars do not only carry limited warranties but shows poor performance during review tests. Inexpensive treadmills having lighter weight are not stable and have fewer features and narrower or smaller belts which are not good for heavy walkers.

There are also designs prone to damaged springs and shocks. Make sure to update the treadmill according to the year of its manufacture. Some models causes accidental falls on users because of unexpected acceleration.
