I'm on my second Pro-Form purchased in the last 10 years. I have arthritic knees so I only use it for walking (very little running). In the Spring, Summer and Fall I ride my bike nearly every day but can't ride my bike in the winter so I use the treadmill most every day when the weather is bad or cold. I purchased the Pro-Forms from Sears for about $400 - $500. The first one crapped out on me after about 7 years of use; the running board cracked and the belt went bad. I checked into replacing the board and belt but that would cost almost as much as a new low-end Pro-Form so I purchased a new one. They aren't the highest quality but they have worked fine for me.

I agree with previous posts about placing the treadmill in front of a TV. Time seems to drag by even being in front of the TV but I couldn't fathom being on the treadmill without being distracted by the TV.

BTW - I weigh about 170 lbs.
