just curious as to if anyone here has their own treadmill in their home and what their actual useage is.
wife and i moved into a house in early september. i go to the gym regularly but my wife does not. at our old apartment there was a fitness center down in the basement that had a few treadmills, and my wife would use that to do a lot of cardio.
but now that we're in our own home we're looking at treadmills. when i do cardio, i currently do it at the gym, but if i get a treadmill at home i will be doing it at home.
there seems to be a ton of treadmills out there and i know home ones aren't quite the quality of the ones you see in the gym. but i do want to be able to actually run on it, probably no faster than 10mph.
i've been scouring craigslist and there are TONS of them out there for sale.
i came across someone selling this one for $300:

after doing a bit of research it seems like a pretty solid one, and at the price of $300 that seems like a good deal. we're going to check it out sunday and he said we can test it out, so my wife and i both plan to do a little run on it to see how it feels.
so i'm curious, those of you that have them at home, do you use them to actually run and do they feel sturdy and not wobble? that has always been a concern of mine with home treadmills.
