If creating a home gym seemed like the right thing to do, till you saw the price of new treadmills, then maybe a second hand treadmill is is more appropriates. Your more likely to find a working used treadmill on the web, than withing driving distance. As I discovered when shopping for a treadmill on the web, there are a couple of extra cautions you should observe.
I did manage to find some cheap used treadmills.Getting a affordable treadmill shouldn't be your only expectation. You want to make sure you get a treadmill in good shape. There are tons of choices for websites to buy from.
You get the idea to start looking for a used treadmill at a local gym. You should know what your doing to buy a exercise machine this way. Exercise Machines from fitness clubs have seen a ton of use, and abuse. I'd be cautious, as to how much more use is left in these treadmills. You'll buy a low-cost machines for sure, but will it work tomorrow?
Insure you have some kind of buyer protection, when buying from individuals. A treadmill you buy through a private sale, is likely to have seen occasional use, and will have a lot of use left on it. If the guy/gal your getting the treadmill from lives close, it would be prudent to check out the treadmill face to face before obtaining it.
