Is there an issue with this treadmill on regular carpet you would find in a bedroom, or does it require a harder surface ?

I have my Sole tread set up on carpet, no issues, but I did put a plastic liner under the tread only to protect the carpet.

There's no issue, however, I strongly urge anyone to place a treadmill mat on the carpet before placing the treadmill, to protect the carpet.

I have mine set up on the carpet and am having no issues with it. You just need to make sure you use the leveling feet at the end so that everything is setting just right. took me about 5 minutes to get that just perfect.

We dont roll our around too much but when we do the wheels hold up fine. We keep ours in the master bedroom which is carpeted. The wheel seem to do fine with the carpet. They even have two wheels with locks on them to keep it from rolling around. I liked mine so much that I bought my fiance one and it has really helped our laundry hamper situation.

I use mine on carpet also & it does not slip. Get ready for a great workout!

Ok on carpet. But not like on hard surfaces. Stay centered and be careful with turns. I did ok once I got used to it on all surfaces. MK

I have mine on a carpeted floor with an exercise equipment mat underneath without any stability issues.

As mine are in the basement, I cut around the treadmill to minimize any bounce. The tiles can defintely withstand the equipment if you are utilizing for floor protection.

We are using under an elliptical machine on top of carpet. It's quiet but I don't know how it compares to a treadmill

To use it as intended it takes a good degree of balance. I would probably go with a regular treadmill. The workout is excellent if they are very balanced.

I bought the mat along with the treadmill, but I haven't used it. I don't believe it is necessary on carpet floors.

I have it on carpet and it wobbles a little but on a hard surface I don't think it will wobble at all.

We didn't experience any problems, our carpet isn't very long/thick so it runs well.

I suppose it would depend on your carpet, but I feel secure when I use it on carpet, and that is how I am most comfortable using it indoors. On hard floor, I try to put it where the floor meets a wall. It might be fine on a regular hard floor, but I can't afford to find out the hard way if it slips!

Yes. I have mine on carpet and it's been there for as long as I've owned it. What a delightful treadmill.

Have had mine on carpet for over 10 years. Never had one problem.... All the internal electronics are near the top of the unit, so heat isn't a concern either.

While I can't answer your question definitively, I can say that mine is on a low nap textured carpet and I'm glad I bought the mat. I don't think that it would be as solid without it.

At this time I'm using my machine on ceramic tile floor, no issues whatsoever so far....Machine it's heavy enough to be stable on carpet as well

I have it on carpet and it has not left marks, and it moves smoothly. I've been very happy with it. I would have to vote "yes".
