Being able to put the deck up keeps it out of the way to you dont have to give up too much space for the thing. Overall it works well and you will get exactly what you expect from this ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-05-27 Summary: Great running surface ... terrible display ... I purchased this treadmill about four weeks ago. I received the treadmill within a week and it was easy to put together. I've been running on it for about 3 weeks now, approximately 4-8 miles a day. The good: It has a great running surface, I have put thousands of miles on commercial quality treadmills and this treadmill is easily comparable. Based on that I would give it 5 stars. The running surface is spacious (width and length) which is good for me because I like to drift around a bit. Also, one thing that I have ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-07-16 Summary: Great product! ... I've tried a variety of solutions for holding my book open while on a treadmill, including holding it with my hand the whole time and using a bent clothes hanger. I use the FlipKlip every time I work out, with paperback and hardcover books. I don't have a problem with turning pages, but I did take the tip from another reviewer to put the back protrusions inside the dustcover, but outside the book cover, for hardcover books. I would also add that it is helpful to play around with placement. For example, the FlipKlip ...more
