How well does the Rebel Treadmill hold up over time? Comments please for those who have regularly used one for 6 months, 1-2 years, longer.

I started using mine on 6/25/14. I use it Mon - Fri until I hit my 10,000 steps for the day, and use a bar stool on top of it to sit on for the rest of the work day (I use a vari-desk, and just leave it in the high position at all times.) It still works like a charm and is very quiet. The only wear and tear is what I have caused by sitting the wooden barstool legs on the edges, but that's purely cosmetic. I'd buy another one in a heartbeat!

yes. for god's sakes hold on. We lost grandmother when she torqued up the treadmill to 6 miles an hour. off the back she went flying through the wall board, between the wall studs and splatted against the brick siding. I was on the treadmill at 4 miles an hour Thursday and it recorded all steps effortlessly. Sara used the elliptical with success also. I have to see about biking, I used the recumbent and it did not register.

Hi Jerrod, My treadmill is like, 20 yrs old, so cannot compare it to yours. All I can say is that the product made positive difference and my belt had enough play for it to be applied as advertised. Hope you find a great solution!

I've had mine for almost a year and use it a couple times a month. I'm careful with it but it's held up just fine. I wouldn't consider it super durable but there's that fwiw.

I was wondering if anyone has had this mower for over two years.. and how's it doing? I really want to buy this- but the price is steep for my budget, and I can't seem to find a retailer that offers an extended warranty for purchase. I am just afraid of buying it and it crapping out on me after just over two years. Anyone have any thoughts please?

I have had mine for over 8 months and still good. I guess it depends on how much you use them. There are good tires.

Hi. Did you two purchase the stroller? If so, I'd love to hear how you rate the stroller? Is it worth the price? Has it held up well over time? Any annoyances? Good customer service? Thanks!

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.

I've had it for about 1/2 year and it's still comfy and working fine. I don't see this chair breaking down anytime soon. No wear and tears. I use it in my home and sit in it for hours everyday. I can spin around fast still! If you're into that kind of stuff...

great question because so much of the feedback on Amazon is for people who have only owned it for 3 weeks or so (and you can't properly evaluate it based on only 3 weeks) I've owned the Schwinn 430 6 months and it stopped working twice. Each time it was the belt attached to the motor falling off, which isn't easy to fix because you have to remove the shell & all it's screws to fix the belt. Needless to say, I'm not happy long term.

I have owned the Giant Dual Fit for 5 years and have never experienced any problem with it. I use it for 90 to 120 minutes every day at different speeds. I do have the belt drive and after reading your post I checked the condition of the belt and it is showing very slight wear on the edge. I am satisfied with the bike and will use it as long as my health allows. I am 66 years old and consider myself in good shape. Heart is strong, Dr. says the bike has greatly added to that. Good luck in your search.

We've had ours over a year and it's still running, and we use it frequently. Hope that helps.

She will most likely just keep it down if she uses it. I can handle it. I'm 61. One problem I have once in a while is the belt slips to the side and I have to get my husband to help me "true" it so I don't get that burned rubber smell.I still like the treadmill but if I had it to do over I would get one with padding. Look for one with a small footprint so it doesn't take up much room. That is what I liked about this one.

I have been using my Duro-Med Mini Stepper Exerciser for several months and it works well. I dare not say how long it will last without breaking because even diamond can break.

I've had the treadmill for about 9 months and I noticed as long as you periodically lube it per the maintenance instructions. It doesn't squeak.

I found that it worked great. To be honest over time (year) it started to vibrate more but certainly it did well for a good period of time. From talking to a lot of people these types of units (all makes) are about as good as each other but I certainly thought this is the best of the bunch. If you are doing a lot of high impact rides then I think it will wear down more quickly

I am 290 and I use it about 20 minute a day not very hard. It seems like a really sturdy machine. Its not as sturdy as the industrial machine at the gym nor does it glide as smoothly as the one at the gym. Been using it for only 2 weeks so far no problems. I have had problems with elliptical machines in the past, it was because I was using them on carpet with a few boards underneath it the machine rocked back and forth and I think that is why none of my previous machines lasted long. Put in on a level hard surface if you can and make sure you adjust it the best you can I am sure the machine will be fine for you. I am 290 and I use it about 20 minute a day not very hard.
