Bowflex Series 7 treadmill, user's manual, warranty information About Treadmills
Walking is still considered one of the most beneficial cardiovascular exercises for people of all ages, body types, and fitness levels. As a fundamental form of aerobic training, walking has numerous physical benefits for the heart, lungs, and circulatory system, while also increasing muscle tone and burning fat calories. Treadmills provide a convenient way to regularly exercise in all weather conditions in the comfort and safety of your own home. From beginners just starting an exercise regimen to advanced athletes looking to maintain their fitness level, anyone interested in getting and staying in shape can benefit greatly from regular use of a treadmill. Treadmills allow you to determine the pace, distance, and complexity of the workout based on your needs, all while watching television, talking on the telephone, or reading a magazine. Much easier on sensitive joints like the knees and hips, treadmill walking and running surfaces are typically long, padded platforms that allow ample room for a long stride and comfortable, low-impact walk or jog without the harsh contact of a concrete surface. While many different types, styles, and price ranges of treadmills exist, many of them offer unique features like a fold-up design for easy storage, an electronic display monitor showing speed, distance, workout time, incline level, and burned calories, and EKG grip pulses to monitor the heart rate while exercising. Regardless of the simple to complex features you may choose, treadmills offer an array of aerobic exercise opportunities that will provide long-lasting beneficial cardiovascular results without a commute to the gym or a jog in the rain.

 bowflex treadmillApr 24, 2008
Solidly constructed, long running deck, easy to fold up but heavy and bulky to move. Control panel display easy to read and program. It seems to have plenty of motor power and runs quietly.
Sturdy, simple, easy to fix.Apr 23, 2008
Bought the Series 7 a few months ago and have been using regularly since then. As some other reviewers noted, it's really heavy (prob about 300 lbs) so make sure you have an area cleared for it already (you can make some minor adjustments sliding it on its cardboard box).
The delivery and set up was smooth (30 bolts attached using allen key/screwdriver which was included). Mine was delivered with a speed sensor that was out of wack and caused an L-5/L-6 error. Using a pair of pliers and a small phillips screwdriver, I adjusted the speed sensor (like on a bike computer's speed sensor), but it was just bad. The company sent one right out and now it works beautifully.
The only caveat is the floor must be perfectly flat where the back of the treadmill will sit. I have mine in the garage and one wheel is the tiniest bit off the ground and causes a banging when I run on it. So I wedged some cardboard under there and it's fine.
I only run 8-10 minute mile pace on it, it seems a bit narrow when I'm going much faster (and the built in fan is great!).
 Well Made MachineApr 20, 2008
I have used this treadmill for a little over three weeks and am very impressed with how well it is made and how easy it is to use.
Please note all of the other cautions about how heavy it is, they are all true! Required less than an hour to assemble. Shipping was faster than promised. (1 week)
NOT a boring treadmill...Apr 18, 2008
I was afraid that if I got this treadmill the initial excitement would wear off and I'd get bored with it. Not so. It has a variety of programs that keep each of my workouts challenging. For a female that is over 200lbs and now getting back into exercise has been the best thing to get me motivated to start activity in my own time and space. It is a very sturdy treadmill so you feel you can move on it and not break it like some other cheaper non-gym quality treadmills out there. My husband who is 6'2 and very athletic is also making the most of our treadmill. We are now branching out and doing even more activity since we bought this machine. Love it!
BTW, love the heart rate monitor that comes with it for free. Fantastic.
Great machine!Apr 15, 2008
I love this treadmill! It's a bit heavy to move around easily - but the extra weight is worth it as my husband (who is over 250lbs) can also run on it. There was a part missing (a piece of casing) but their customer service was extremely helpful, altho it did take about 3 weeks to arrive... but I understand, it was at Christmas!
