Thought the Tread Climber was pricey, but I have had this for almost 3 months, and it is a great piece of equipment. I am 55 and I have found that I can get to my target zone faster and stay there easier than with a treadmill. I have a Nordick Ski-Track and it is good also, but the workout is more intense. The Tread Climber will make you sweat buckets, but is smoother, and less intense. Mine was assembled when I got it, they told me that is something they just started...too many unhappy people trying to assemble the things. Anyway I would highly recomend this machine.

I purchased my Tread Climber a month ago, and at first found it difficult in terms of getting the right resistence on the shocks and each shock will need different settings because all of us have what is known as "a different gate" when we walk or run. I have used virtually every type of exercise equipment and feel this is a serious workout. You will sweat and you cannot cheat this piece of equipment! I felt that ski machines and elleptical's were it for serious sweating....wrong the Tread Climber rocks, but it is not for the meek. I recommend the Tread Climber if you want a good workout.

I am completly dissatisfied.  I received the tread climber and it took about 2 hours to put it together. Everytime I used it, I lost my footing and had to use the emergency stop. The worst part is its costing me over $400 in shipping fees.

I have had my treadclimber (t300-$1700.00) for about 6 months and I love it. I originally purchased it because I normally run and I wanted an alternative exercise machine that was non- impact. It was fairly new product, so there was not much information on it, but since Nautilus made it I went ahead and bought it. It gives you a great workout without the pounding,it is just like walking in sand, because you are walking with resistance but also stepping upward with out being on a incline, so your knees won't hurt. My heart rate is very high walking at a 3.0 mph-it is equivalent to my running on a treadmill. The few things that I don't like about it , it is fairly loud, and it took my husband and I 2 hours to put it together (but neither of us knew what we were doing). This has gotton some bad reviews on the other sites, but I think I people should give it a try first- before the count this machine out.
