Refurbished Treadmills - Substantial With Substantial Savings

Refurbished treadmills are machines that have been remanufactured, so to speak, usually by the original manufacturer who sometimes resells the refurbished treadmill certified, as in the case of Proform, and with a limited warranty.

Most often, refurbished machines are former gym or club machines that are substantial and versatile enough to meet the demands of many users of varying sizes and who need the kind of treadmill that can be used for running, high-intensity workouts, and sports training.

Consequently, with problems already corrected, these treadmills are very attractive machines often saving you thousands of dollars.

It's important to keep in mind that commercial grade machines are usually large, heavy and are less likely to have fold-away design. Nevertheless, treadmills made by companies like StarTrac, which focuses on the commercial market, are desirable purchases if you have room and the need.

Start Your Own Gym

Startrac introduced its first treadmill in 1974 and now offers five models for use in exercise clubs and sports training facilities--the Elite, Pro, Pro S, and TR4500, and one model, the TR901, for the home gym.

The TR901 features heart rate control over speed and incline, a training aid that can be found on the StarTrac 4000HR, another model sold online refurbished.

The StarTrac 2000, a very smooth running model now sold remanufactured, runs on a 2.5CHP motor at speeds up to 10 MPH and has a weight capacity of 300 pounds on a wide running deck.

MegaFitness, the online fitness equipment and sports training supplier, offers the StarTrac 4000HR with an in-home warranty of lifetime on the frame, 1 year on parts on the motor, 6 months on parts, 6 months labor reimbursement, lifetime (toll free) phone support, and 90 days on wearable replacement or repair on pads, grips, belts and cables due to manufactures defects.
