I see the user weight limit is 275 lbs. Does anyone know if it will really hold up for someone of that weight or should I invest in something else?

If your weight close or over 275 lb I think you should looking for other more expensive, heavyer products. I really don't know what will happen if the person who's weight reach or over that limit to use it.

Does well for 400# walker. Can't speak to how heavy a runner it would take, but for over six months I've walked on it regularly and it has been perfect.

it seems pretty sturdy to me but i cant say for sure..if it says 275 im sure it will support that..its a really good treadmill..i love it...not top of the line but it definitely serves its purpose.

Keep in mind that the limit assumes running, which pounds the unit. If you just plan on walking, I'm pretty sure it'll be fine even if you go up to 300lbs or so.

It appears to be a nice and sturdy treadmill for the money. I really like it. I believe it will support the weight listed.

I'm right around 275 lbs myself and we've had the treadmill for several months with no signs of failure. HOWEVER, if you walk on this treadmill at that weight you WILL notice that the motor struggles with EVERY footstep. Running/jogging you won't notice the issue as much but it's really annoying to have the belt jerk with every step when walking. The device also creaks a lot when I use it and just generally doesn't /feel/ safe even if it is; it's to the point that I avoid using it. Would highly recommend a stronger model for someone at the 260lb+ weight range. For reference, we have the device on a mat on top of carpet in our basement which may affect your experience.

When I first got mine I weighed 300# and I have never had a problem with it holding up,, I have had it a little of 6 months now. Works great!

The end user in our situation weighs 155 lbs and there have been no issues to date. I tossed the packaging, which may have listed a maximum weight limit. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful.

I've seen this product listed on two different web sites as having a max weight of 275lbs. It certainly seems strong enough to support more (I'm about 270lbs and it feels study under me), but that seems to be an official number.

Holly,The website and paperwork say it is good for up to 300 lbs. My wife and I both use this machine and I weigh in at about 275 lbs and have no problem with the machine.

I really don't know the weight limit, cause the person I'm using it for weighs approx. 110 LBS. and have no problems with it.

I am 208 lbs and it is working great for me. I think it is pretty sturdy and should work for you too. Because it feels like there is still some give when I am on it. I hope this helps you.

I don't know as I didn't see a weight limit on it.I know some who weighs over 275 was sitting in one of the chairs and very thing was fine.Does this help?

I weigh 250 and it supports me fine. The seat opening is small though, so even if it holds the weight of someone like me, it's almost not useable due to the small seat size. My 200 lb buddies feel like it's too small too.

I haven't read the product information. The person who has used it for months is about 250 lbs. No problems.

I would guess at least two hundred pounds, it's very study. Check the measurement of the width, that could be a problem for a bigger person.

Saw a video with a Solstice rep. He stated the weight limit is 275. I can neither confirm nor deny the performance at that weight though.

I'm 270 pounds and the chair seems to hold me fine. I'd bet it would do okay up to a 300 pound person, but don't go flopping down in to it too hard. The leg extension is not that strong. It will hold my legs, but it's a bit short so I don't use it often (besides I use the chair as a desk chair so it doesn't make much sense). After a couple of years with the chair, I've noticed the padding has compressed a bit, but not to the point of being uncomfortable. I still log a LOT of hours in this thing. Pretty decent chair. Especially for the money.

I could not find any info about max weight specs. in the owners manual. During my research before I purchased mine, I remember reading reviews from other owners with no problems with weights from 275lbs.-300lbs. It is a sturdy product.

I bought this and I jump up and down on it.. I weigh 165lbs and it seems solid as a rock... I would think if you are under 300 lbs (and not jumping on it) it should be fine.

Holds adults (not recommended) up to 160lbs. I haven't seen any one else try.
