i-bystander Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Short and sweet - help me find a good deal on an elliptical machine... hopefully around $300-$400 (or below). :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keebelf Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 do you have a Play it Again Sports in your area? Check with them and see if they have anything..... Otherwise, Walmart.com, Target, Kmart, I think even Sams Club has them. But the price is going to depend on how nice/state of the art you want it. Or, if you have a Goodwill or City Rescue Mission, check out those places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossMAN Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 I wonder if the Target.com 10% off coupon would work on an elliptical machine? Of course you probably won't receive free shipping due to the weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keebelf Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 check with Overstock.com! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i-bystander Posted May 19, 2005 Author Share Posted May 19, 2005 Yeah, I was going to check out the Play It Again stores around here, but I haven't had a chance yet. The ones at the stores you mentioned seem a little bit too flimsy - same with the only one at Overstock at my price range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrn8 Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Key's Fitness equipment is made very well. I would stay away from Pro-Form, however. I have a Pro Form treadmill, and it works ok, but it's not very solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hear your comments. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrn8 Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Well, my Pro-Form treadmill hasn't broken, but I've only owned it for 1.5 years. However, the platform squeaks quite loudly. The running surface slips if I get going fast, and which means that the rollers aren't holding the track as well as they should. That being said, the motor has been flawless, which is saying a lot for a consumer level treadmill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
