Hello, are you able to also set it up etc., to run on this treadmill? Thanks

This treadmill operates up to 4 mph while some other 'normal' treadmills I looked at (http://www.amazon.com/ProForm-PFTL60910-Proform-505-Treadmill/dp/B0048HS02G/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid;=1383233938&sr;=8-3&keywo;rds=treadmill) go up to 10mph. 4mph is a bit too fast for me to walk on safely, but I'm not sure how that translates to your body size or fitness level. Just in case it may help, I have read about people elevating the front of this treadmill for a mild incline to increase resistance.

I might be wrong, but I think the top speed is 4mph. That might be something of a jog, but not really running. The speed increment is 0.1mph - it's really meant for walking / fast walking.

No not for running... It's top pace is 4 mph.... Fast walking.... Or walking but for like 3 hours or more

The max speed is 4 miles per hour, which could get you to a decent jog. But its not really designed for running. It doesn't have hand rails to hang onto, or padding to cushion the stride.

We bought this treadmill the beginning of December, so I can't speak to others out there. However, we haven't had any of the issues that other people had. No problems with set up, my 14 year old son put the treadmill together. There were additional instructions about how to get out of demo mode, and 2 others that I don't remember, but our son didn't run into problems. No issues with updating, we just had to calibrate twice, or getting it to work. No issues with iFit. Love this machine.

Yes, you can use it with a treadmill as long as the treadmill will meet the power rating of the surge protector.

I don't think so. It is challenging to set up and I don't need distance. What I can say is that I've had trouble with it working properly with certain jog bras and particular exercises such as burpees. In my opinion their customer service leaves quite a bit to be desired. They seem more interested in making things the owner's problem than listening and helping solving what's not working. That said, I'm on my fourth. But there are many more options now.

hey, I never use it on treadmill. But the headphone is pretty tight and I think it will work. The thing is the price is higher than before...

Yes! Luckily my friend has it so I could ask her before I bought it. You can run both together or each separately. The timer is also optional. :-)

Wasn't a problem for me ; ) My 28 year old son did it. In my case I had him not install the arms and then pull the control panel wires out so I could use the treadmill under a desk with the control panel sitting separately. That whole thing took him maybe an hour. He's an engineer. I think it would have been quicker to set it up traditionally. Box is heavy!!

Yes. I have the desk sitting on plastic furniture movers and I move it away from the treadmill to use it in my workouts. I personally would not be comfortable running on the treadmill with the desk in place.

Hi Kurt. I did the same thing with the speed, and ended up with a potential Lucille Ball moment! Going back to the instructions and reading it properly.......turn on the treadmill, THE RED BUTTON, it will give you a 3 beep countdown, get on the treadmill, and press the + key to get to the speed you want.

The problem I have is that the treadmill makes a lot of noise, i had a maintain person from proform and it she couldn't help much. I have a problem with ProForms tech's they dont return my calls and they dont answer there phone, now I just live with it. Its been about a year that I stop calling the techs

I don't think you can get it flat like a treadmill - there are manual dials on both sides that you adjust to a min up to a max incline (like shocks on a car). I have mine at min right now and there is still an incline that I would guess is similar to walking up stairs....

Yes! My husband and his brother put it together within an hour or less. The treadmill itself is also AWESOME! We LOVE it, great purchase here!

I bought this treadmill based on the responses to this question and other comments. The manufacture is now gluing the cord into the plugs at both ends. So be prepared to risk breaking the connections when you try to bust the glue, or cut the wires and repair them once you've removed the wires from the arms.

I don't think it's tall enough for a treadmill. You'll have to look down in order to use it. You COULD use it, probably if you put it on a step stool and then you could swing it over in front of you. There may be better options out there? Good luck with your search!

Yes, you can. If you have trouble configuring it, let me know. Thanks, Scott

Probably - the thing about this treadmill is it has a weight limit, only can be used in the incline position, and is very hard to move. Since you are taller and probably heavier than I am (130 pounds) this might not be an issue for you.

Excellent Question. NO. We brought ours into the spare bedroom in pieces and then assembled it. Be sure to buy the pad if you do. This treadmill is HEAVY.
