 taking my time to write this for others to be awareMar 21, 2008
I bought the treadclimber 3000 for my wife. It is not as good as you all may think. The installation was ridiculous,they should have put it together more before the shipment. As for the shocks i have 3 pairs all with cracked tops so you cannot even adjust the resistance. I received 2 replacements from bowflex which both came damaged.I noticed there is no stopper on the adjustment so if you continue to turn it past the 12 and go to a lower # it will throw it completely off.It is definitly not a proffesional unit as in a gym for this kind of $.
My advise to you all is buy what you use and see for yourself in a gym which is used constantly.
This machine looks as if it wont last for 6 months.

 Not What It SeemsDec 31, 2007
Because of the business of my life, I do not have the time to make it to a gym on a routine basis. Therefore, I take great consideration when it comes to investing in a piece of work-out equipment. I have been diligently using an elliptical for over a year now and it's done a fairly good job of working my lower body. But, it gets boring and it started to make my hips ache.
After researching the TreadClimber for over a year (the cost was a big factor for me), I decided I'd purchase it because it not only worked my lower body, but was versatile enough for cardio. So the "three-pieces-of-equipment-in-one" was a big selling point to me.
If I could go back, I would not have bought the TreadClimber and here's a few reason's why:
1. The hydraulics with the stepping are awkward and they do not go up and down on their own (cheaply engineered for the price I was paying). So, if you are like me and do not walk "perfectly", the machine will pull to one side - not moving up and down evenly. Therefore, you are spending more time in your workout "getting leveled out" then working effectively.
2. It is small width-size, so I cannot walk without smashing my hands into the side bars.
3. The treadles are slim and if you have larger feet (especially once you have sneakers on - I wear a woman's size 10), you are bound to hit the motionless sides and get catapulted several feet behind you.
4. Because of the increased chances of hitting the motionless sides, you must FOCUS on the treadles constantly, if you are to get the best work-out - which means NOT holding onto the side bars. It is discouraging and distracting to be staring at the belt for the entire workout.
5. Do not believe that the stair stepper is of any use. You are just going up and down on the treadles, this is not an effective work out.
6. The treadmill is misleading also. It is only of use if you wish to walk. It is very short and narrow to do anything else.
7. This model only goes to 4.0 mph. This speed will be met very quickly if you are doing a weekly work out regime.
With that said, the TreadClimber is effectively working my thigh and ab areas. Because I was so excited about my thousands of dollar investment, I quickly made room for my versatile TreadClimber and sold my elliptical -I wish now I wasn't so rash. This product is $1000 too expensive!

 Bowflex TC 3000 TreadclimberDec 26, 2007
I got mine last month and really like it. Wasn't crazy about having to put it together but I didn't have any problems. It was a little heavy for me but managed it just fine alone. (I am a woman) I love the size, it doesn't take up the whole room like treadmills do and being able to do more than one thing with it is a plus. It does take a little getting used to if you have never used one before. I'd recommend it to everyone.

Great machine...very reliable over the long runNov 30, 2007
I bought this TC3000 Treadclimber when it was still Nautilus branded. So, I've had it for 4 or more years. I've really beaten it up. For a time I was on it for two hours a day at 4 mph (top speed). I still use it as a regular part of my aerobic routine (along with my ellipticals, and my rowers).
About 6 months ago I did replace the motor, but I was able to do it myself, but I have no complaints since it had lasted so long with no real maintenance issues. This is a great purchase and it is more reasonable than the TC5000 and has all the required bells and whistles with none of the higher priced frills. I have looked longingly at the newest high end model, but I have trouble justifying the price when the old workhouse is still going strong.

Bowflex 3000TOct 16, 2007
I got one for home, so I can do cardio daily and not have to run to the gym every day. I like the variety of workouts and the size of the machine. It fits very well in a small space. It doesn't take up the entire room like alot of machines. I think it is well worth it for the price.
