Bowflex Series 7 Treadmill Reviews
Very Happy with this Bowflex Series 7 Treadmill
I have had this Bowflex Series 7 Treadmill for a few weeks now and have been very happy with it. It’s very sturdy and has a lot of features for a home treadmill. The comments I list below fall into the category of “just be prepared for” and mainly involve the delivery process.
One caveat I have is that this machine is *heavy*. My delivery guy brought it into my garage and despite my attempts to have him put it just inside a room off the garage, no dice. I had to have the help of a very strong guy to move the treadmill where I wanted it. The good news is that after that, it was a piece of cake to put together, involving about 30 big screws and took exactly an hour (probably could have taken even less time).
This Bowflex Series 7 Treadmill is supposed to fold up, but I can’t imagine ever using that feature — for one, it’s too heavy and two, it’s so big it’s not like you could really hide it anywhere. These are not complaints — the fact that the machine is big and heavy translates into sturdiness and a larger running surface.
Finally, there’s no instant gratification when you click the Purchase button online. Be prepared for this item to take up to a month to be delivered. It’s worth the wait, though!
