Consider buying it from the manufacturer web site (smoothfitness.com).Why?This thing is massive!Read on...GOOD POINTS:My wife and I use it every day.It is solid as a rock and quiet.We absolutely got our money's worth and I'd buy it again, hands-down.
BAD POINTS: It is MASSIVE!Because we bought this from Amazon, it came shipped to us just like you'd think.But at 200+ lbs, it remained in our garage until five guys from church came and carried it to our basement.Once there, I had to assemble it.
Mind you, assembly is mostly-done for you.But there's work for you to do, and don't make any mistake about it.Setting this thing up takes time and effort, but it's worth it.
ADVICE: buy this from the manufacturer's web site and pay for their White Glove service.If you do, once it arrives someone will lug it to any room in your home and *then* assemble it for you.Trust me on this, just spend the money and let someone else deal with it!Learn from my mistake.If you opt to save money like I did, you will be sorry you did when this thing arrives at the end of your driveway.At least I was.
One last thing: make sure where you put it has an AC outlet nearby.You will need it (this thing needs power).If you do like me and put it in your basement, go out and buy a power-strip (with a 10-foot or more cord) and have it handy, so the installation people can plug it in once it's all assembled.In our case, I even taped-down the power-strip cable to the floor, so you don't trip over it.
Again, once assembled and where it's suppose to be in your home, this is money well spent.I can't tell you enough how solid and reliable it is.Just pay someone else to deal with the set-up hassle and you'll be all set.
