does it have a flat setting or must it run at a incline?

It stays at the incline. Speed is the only adjustable thing. It's not very slanted and the dogs don't seem to have a problem with it.

The lowest level is set at an incline of 5degrees so it is not completely flat.

Its not completely flat at lowest setting due to the nature of construction however it is low enough to start a dog on it comfortable.

No. The incline cannot be adjusted. There is no motor. Your legs have to move the belt and that effort makes it feel like you're going uphill. You can adjust the belt resistance or speed. I find that the lowest setting gives me enough of a workout.

I donated mine to a rummage sale to benefit the local animal shelter. I couldn't get it to adjust tension right, there was no incline, and it was way too small to run or jog on. I was intrigued by the manual aspect, but now use our heavy duty electric powered one when weather forces me to exercise indoors.

No they don't. But they don't move unless you push them. But my patio is flat. Don't know what would happen on an incline. But I really love them. They make moving my large plants soooo easy.

I do get the full 10% incline. I think the only way it will squeak is if you don't do the upkeep on it. The manual tells you the things you need to do to keep it top shape. I had ordered and received 2 others that ended up going back because of being too noisy. This one is a keeper. It is quiet. I love that I can hook my ipad, ipod, or phone up to it and the sound plays out of the speakers if I want. I love this treadmill.

Would be very close - the system is about 6-8 inches high -- any incline adjustment would be very tight. Very reliable treadmill though

No. It will drive ok on flat parts of your yard but will not have enough traction for any kind of incline. This was stil the case after I added rubber traction bands to the back wheels.

Yes, it does. Both the incline and speed are set up by a one touch button unless you chooses a program. Then the incline and speed is automatically set.

It does lie absolutely flat. It adjusts like a lawn chair. Occasionally, you may find that it won't stay in the upright position by itself--you just have grab it in the middle and pull it up--that kind of "resets" it.

It's not a button. It's the fold-able legs at the rear of the treadmill. Really expensive treadmills have mechanical incline adjustments, this one just has one level to prop itself up. Even with the fold-able legs folded in, the incline isn't very dramatic.

There's nobutton. You retract the two legs at the back part of the treadmill, and you get a slight incline. It only has two modes, with the legs on and with the legs out.

Dear simon, The incline is only at around 30 degrees. It's like walking or running up a gradual hill.

It does. It has incline, decline, and 90 degree. It also has a lot of different positions for incline angles.

Yes. I prefer flat as the child does not need to go uphill, which is harder. We have two, one set for small grandchildren and the other for teens. Even the five year old can ride it on a slight upward incline with practice.

It is a fixed angle, no adjustments, which really bums me out because my old one (a Fitness Gear, which I will replace this one with) had three inclines including flat so that it could be used as a chair when not working out (my only furniture is my camping cot and my situp bench).I got hold of a milk crate and put the front legs of the bench on the flipped over milk crate thus increasing the incline for a better workout and will do that in the future with other, better situp benches (I like my milk crate better than this particular situp bench, milk crates rule.)Kel

No it does not. It does though change slighty depending on what incline you choose.

Mine has a very small incline to the point that I didn't need to modify anything.
