Great way to work your heart! October 11, 2008 I am pretty happy with this treadclimber. I have been using the bowflex strength training for many many years now, but I just didn't get the same amount of attention in the cardio department. With this treadclimber, now I am! Man, this thing will work you out! I have been extremely pleased with this. It is solid as a tank, and looks to be well designed. I am loving it, and working my tail off! This will make you break a sweat, guaranteed! No doubt, the pounds are slipping off! I find that it is the perfect balance to my strength training!
Does the job September 3, 2008 I can't stand treadmills or ellipticals, so this was the obvious choice. I'm glad we purchased this. I use it daily, and after one month, my clothes are fitting a little bit better. The best part is that I feel better and sleep like a baby at night. However, the downside is that my 6'2" husband can't find much use for this, since he can't take a long enough stride on it. So if you're tall (or just have particularly long legs), you might need to cough up the bucks and upgrade to one of the models with the longer treadles.

I bought the treadclimber 3000 for my wife. It is not as good as you all may think. The installation was ridiculous,they should have put it together more before the shipment. As for the shocks i have 3 pairs all with cracked tops so you cannot even adjust the resistance. I received 2 replacements from bowflex which both came damaged.I noticed there is no stopper on the adjustment so if you continue to turn it past the 12 and go to a lower # it will throw it completely off.It is definitly not a proffesional unit as in a gym for this kind of $. My advise to you all is buy what you use and see for yourself in a gym which is used constantly. This machine looks as if it wont last for 6 months.
Not What It Seems December 31, 2007 29 out of 32 found this review helpful
Because of the business of my life, I do not have the time to make it to a gym on a routine basis. Therefore, I take great consideration when it comes to investing in a piece of work-out equipment. I have been diligently using an elliptical for over a year now and it's done a fairly good job of working my lower body. But, it gets boring and it started to make my hips ache.
After researching the TreadClimber for over a year (the cost was a big factor for me), I decided I'd purchase it because it not only worked my lower body, but was versatile enough for cardio. So the "three-pieces-of-equipment-in-one" was a big selling point to me.
If I could go back, I would not have bought the TreadClimber and here's a few reason's why:
1. The hydraulics with the stepping are awkward and they do not go up and down on their own (cheaply engineered for the price I was paying). So, if you are like me and do not walk "perfectly", the machine will pull to one side - not moving up and down evenly. Therefore, you are spending more time in your workout "getting leveled out" then working effectively. 2. It is small width-size, so I cannot walk without smashing my hands into the side bars. 3. The treadles are slim and if you have larger feet (especially once you have sneakers on - I wear a woman's size 10), you are bound to hit the motionless sides and get catapulted several feet behind you. 4. Because of the increased chances of hitting the motionless sides, you must FOCUS on the treadles constantly, if you are to get the best work-out - which means NOT holding onto the side bars. It is discouraging and distracting to be staring at the belt for the entire workout. 5. Do not believe that the stair stepper is of any use. You are just going up and down on the treadles, this is not an effective work out. 6. The treadmill is misleading also. It is only of use if you wish to walk. It is very short and narrow to do anything else. 7. This model only goes to 4.0 mph. This speed will be met very quickly if you are doing a weekly work out regime.
With that said, the TreadClimber is effectively working my thigh and ab areas. Because I was so excited about my thousands of dollar investment, I quickly made room for my versatile TreadClimber and sold my elliptical -I wish now I wasn't so rash. This product is $1000 too expensive!

I got mine last month and really like it. Wasn't crazy about having to put it together but I didn't have any problems. It was a little heavy for me but managed it just fine alone. (I am a woman) I love the size, it doesn't take up the whole room like treadmills do and being able to do more than one thing with it is a plus. It does take a little getting used to if you have never used one before. I'd recommend it to everyone.
