How much weight will this handle? Bought the product. The safety warning that came with it says it "should not be used by persons weighing more than 250 pounds."

It can handle all my male clients during workouts, however you have to pay particular attention to making sure both sides are locked into place first.

Thanks all, I'm sure 250lbs would be fine, but figured a higher weight capacity would be stronger & last longer. BTW contacted the manufacturer who advised Amazon was right it's 300lbs.

Weight limit is specified on the product; however, through experience I don't let my husband (250 pounds) use it. He has bent one previously. If I were to guess, I wouldn't suggest anyone over 200 use it. Also, FYI: on my second unit, the "footies" wore out and I was able to replace them. I found them at my local hardware store. Quite surprised by that.

Mine says 250 but I'm north of that and have had no problems. Just make sure to check it over each time before using. It's built like a truck so the only reason they probably put a weight limit on it is for liability reasons. Just go slow & easy.

I found this information on another web site -- it says 250 lbs. Sounds about right to me.

The manual says only those who weigh 250 lbs or less can safely use this treadmill. For your safety I would not recommend you try this one. I have no knowledge of other treadmills so can not guide you.

Oh gosh, I don't know the weight limit. That might be a question that should be sent directly to the company that makes it. I'm sorry, I wish I could have been more helpful. I will tell you this, my husband weighs 202 pounds and he has been using it without any issues. I hope that helps a little bit.

I'm 125 lbs and its strong enough for me. My husband is 185 and worries he will break it. I would say you are safe up to around 150-160 lbs in my opinion.

I don't know the weight limit. However, my friend is 200 lbs. and used it without any problem.

Not sure but it is a very sturdy chair of good construction. I would guess that a 250 lb person would be safe, maybe more, but who knows..

I'm 160 pounds and I had no problems. I guess it can comfortably hold someone up to 250 pounds.

I'm not sure of the official weight limit but I was just standing on it (i'm 200 lbs), so 300 lbs would be what I would think is a safe max. It is important that you even the load on the left and the right side.

Not sure what manufacture says, but I would not allow more than 150 pounds on it. And whatever the kids do, don't let them hang on or pull on support poles. A friend broke ours after just having for 8 days.

the description says 250 lbs. We have had no trouble with it, my husband is about 230

I weighed 235 lbs. when I began using it and it handled me with no problems. When I purchased it I made sure that I got one with a higher weight rating than my original weight, and I can't recall if this one stated 250 or 300 lbs.

The manufacturer does not list a specific weight limit but it should be safe for anyone up to 250-275 lbs.

On the Step 2 site, it says weight limit of 250lbs. I bought it for me, but my husband who weighs 220lbs. has used it.
