Would appreciate some advice on where to buy a tread mill and what brands to lookout for etc.

Any good deals to be had?

Thanks

IMO you'd be better joining a gym. Most gym's are reasonably priced for membership and you'd get bored of a treadmill very quickly and lose interest, whereas there are various factors to keep you motivated to go to the gym.

A treadmill wouldn't be much use for that.

Thanks but its for the whole family to use.

And WS its just not that bad yet.

had a 'bremshey' cross trainer a few years ago.
sturdy and stable on the floor - wont break or rock all over the place when using it like the cheap flimsy ones that are mostly on the market. Similar enough to the ones used in gyms.
got it in 'VJ's' fitness place in Dublin.
was not cheap - about €800 7 years ago.

Ive had two of the vision fitness 9700HRT for about 5 years. Only one call out in that time. Every bit as good as treadmills in most gyms. Think I paid about £1700 each for them.
