Bowflex Series 7 Treadmill Reviews
I have had this treadmill for a few weeks now and have been very happy with it. It’s very sturdy and has a lot of features for a home treadmill. The comments I list below fall into the category of “just be prepared for” and mainly involve the delivery process.
One caveat I have is that this machine is *heavy*. My delivery guy brought it into my garage and despite my attempts to have him put it just inside a room off the garage, no dice. I had to have the help of a very strong guy to move the treadmill where I wanted it. The good news is that after that, it was a piece of cake to put together, involving about 30 big screws and took exactly an hour (probably could have taken even less time).
This treadmill is supposed to fold up, but I can’t imagine ever using that feature — for one, it’s too heavy and two, it’s so big it’s not like you could really hide it anywhere. These are not complaints — the fact that the machine is big and heavy translates into sturdiness and a larger running surface.
Finally, there’s no instant gratification when you click the Purchase button online. Be prepared for this item to take up to a month to be delivered. It’s worth the wait, though!

We bought this machine for use in our home in May 2007. So far we have not had any problems with the machine at all. Neither one of us are avid runners so I can’t rate the product on that aspect, but I use it 5 times a week 1 hour a night, and so far we have not had any problems. I like that when you unfold the running deck it slowly lowers and does not just release. The only complaint that I can really find is that without a mat, the treadmill left a fine dusting of black powder on my carpet. Like others have commented the machine is not light weight and heavy to move (the wheels do help though), so make of that what you will. Overall I would rate this treadmill right on the money, just make sure to have a mat underneath it. And as for all of the complaints about not receiving front door service, not only did the delivery men bring it to my front door, they also put the treadmill in the room for me!

bought this treadmill after months of reading reviews after reviews after reviews. I did my research! I am NOT disappointed! I put this together (by myself), after my husband helped me move it into my workout room. It only took me an hour, the directions were VERY easy to follow, all tools provided. You do need to make sure to calibrate it though. I had read a review that told me to make sure to do that step – or else I might have not realized that you had to do that step. After the quick 1-2 min calibration step I was up and running. No problems yet. I love this treadmill. I will update the review in a few months and let you all know if anything changes.
