So Far, So Good,,,,
By Jaclyn Womack
We've had it for about 72 hours now. We didn't buy it from Amazon, but paid a similar price. We splurged and had someone deliver and assemble it. Considering the man does it all day, every day....and it still took him over two hours to complete assembly, I'd say it was money well spent!
We are NOT runners by nature, so take this review for what it's worth, as my opinion is going to vary from people who are already capable of running marathons. We are overweight, but not obese, this machine is supposed to be able to handle up to 300lbs, but neither of us approach the limit. That said, this machine is very stable, even when I'm not exactly the most graceful of people jogging on it. The water in my water bottle doesn't even twitch. It's not whisper quiet, but you can hear your music or the TV over it well enough, at a slightly elevated volume.
This unit DOES NOT include the iFit module, which is, currently, another $120-$130 to buy - the service/website is then free for the first year and then $80/year after that. We went out and bought that today. We're still putzing around with settings, but you can configure it to update onto Facebook and it tracks all of your workouts. You can have two different users on a module, so my husband and I will be tracked separately. You can track your calorie intake and burn, with commonly eaten food calorie counts available right on the website and the option to input calories on a freeform basis. There are spots to keep track of your measurements, etc. As you can see, it's a pretty nifty option...that DOESN'T come standard with the unit and, honestly, was one of the main reasons we bought this machine, thinking it did.
There is an iPod jack and wire that jacks into the headphone jack of your iPod. Playback is ok on the treadmill speakers. It's a little tinny, but...yeah, it's a treadmill not a stereo component. It beats having the earbuds in, at any rate.
The one thing that I really don't like about this unit is the very oddly shaped, cubish, fairly shallow cubbies for water/remotes/whatever. I have a 24oz waterbottle and it just doesn't sit in there right. I was worried it would fall out with the vibration but, as I mentioned earlier, the water doesn't even move at a slow jog. (I haven't gotten up any higher than a slow jog just yet...) and the cable remote also sits strangely in the other cubbie. I would have preferred a dedicated, obvious drink holder. As for the remote, I think I'm going to get a bit of adhesive backed hook and loop fastener to solve that problem.
The 10% incline and the max speed on this unit more than serves the need of two fairly sedentary people just getting back into being active. If you're already all big and bad and buff, you're probably going to want to keep looking for something else that's designed for your needs. All in all, a really good entry level machine.

Decent Machine / OK Customer Service
By ALK
So i got this treadmill because it's great deal with with no shipping and tax it's basically a steal.
Assembly fairly straight forward as instructions are very easy to follow but it does take a little bit of time to assemble.
Also this things is 200lbs so not super easy to maneuver.
All in all great shopping experience from amazon, super quick 3 days from order to my room) delivery and fairly straight forward installation.
This morning i was using it for the first time and this treadmill seems great. Very solid and fairly soft to run on.
However, after running on it for about 1.5 miles it stopped working. Since the customer service is closed today i will call tomorrow and see what's up. I'm a bit disappointed with the fact that the belt stopped working after only 1.5 miles but i suspect it's not a problem with these machines but just the one i have. So once i deal with customer service i hope to update this review with how they handled it.
UPDATE: Customer service is average, takes a while to get a hold of them and they shipped the replacement belt in a day or so, but they use that UPS innovations nonsense which basically takes like a week to arrive.
My treadmill issue was the belt that slipped off (i suspect it got moved during transport) and it got a bit torn up.
I would suggest for anyone that gets this to open up the motor cover and take a look at the belt to make sure it's sliding off the motor since these machines are being shipped it's sort of expected.
UPDATE >>> May 3 2012 >>>> works great good purchase, if you are looking for reliable treadmill this is probably the best value.

Great Product, Terrible Assembly Experience
By Syed I. Hashmi
Assembly:
Treadmill arrived in a 6' long, 4' wide and about 2' deep box. Now this being my first treadmill purchase, I thought majority of it would come assembled and I'd just have to screw some bells and whistles together ... WRONG. Except for the belt and stand assembly, everything was packaged seperately and required assembly. And there were a LOT of pieces to put together ... But that's not the worst part. What made this ultimately ridiculous was none of the 100 or so different screws, bolts, nuts and washers were marked in any way. They were all packaged TOGETHER in a zip-lock bag ! Now I'm an engineer and know the difference between a #14 1/2" screw and a #10 3/4", but unless you're a mechanic or a carpenter, you can't just eyeball 6 different increments in thread sizes on your own. I've bought 5 dollar lamps from Walmart with better hardware packaging than this $500 treadmill.
Moving on past the hardware, most of the individual pieces had no markings at all (except in some cases where it said LEFT or RIGHT). The instructions manual called them by different numbers, but neither the pieces nor the packaging had any markings on it to identify the parts. Again, you were left to kinda sorta look at the amazing graphics on the instruction manual and figure out what piece went where ... I don't know if I ended up with an industrial package meant for fitness stores, where they assume the assembler already knows what he/she's doing, or if this is their stadard packaging and Precor just expects people to figure these things out on their own. Overall, it took me 2 sessions of total 5 hours to put this thing together. I don't mind the effort, but the frustration of guessing what nut to use or what washer goes where was a total turnoff.
Product:
Once the treadmill was completely assembled and I used it the first time, I realized why Precor does such a poor job with the assembly procedure. They probably know you'd almost certainly forgive them before your first mile is up running on the treadmill ... As I said earlier, this is my first treadmill purchase - but I've used many in gyms and at friend's houses over the past several years, and this is gym quality for sure. The belt feels very smooth and sturdy. There's some shock absorber thing on the sides which looks flashy but actually works. The strides feel vey smooth with almost no high or low spots throughout the running area. The sound from the belt and motor is very acceptable (but then its only been two days). The incline / decline speed could have been a little faster, but its not a deal breaker in any way. I'm not too bothered with the instrument cluster and all the available options since I do all my running in manual mode, so I won't comment on that much. But overall, there's plenty of room on the console and everything's well adjusted aesthetically.
Final Word:
Great product for its price ... but don't try assembling this at home !
