How to shop for an at-home treadmill

First and foremost, look for a treadmill that is durable. You'll be moving at high speeds and balancing your weight on the equivalent of a conveyor belt. It needs to hold up, quietly supporting you so the machine takes the shock, not your knees and joints. That means you want a treadmill with cushioning and shock absorption under the belt.

Measure your space. Most treadmills have an average footprint of 77 inches long by 35 inches wide. You'll want space around your treadmill so you can easily get on and off. Likewise, you'll need an easy-to-access socket to power up your treadmill.

Look for a machine with varied speeds and incline levels to accommodate all kinds of workouts, from walking to sprinting uphill.

Lastly, make sure your treadmill's interface is easy to navigate and to read. Don't forget, you'll be changing settings while running or walking at full speed so your treadmill's interface must be easy to navigate.
