Treadmill Manufacturer Ratings
In our opinion, some of the manufacturers have been rated too low just because their treadmills are too expensive for an average buyer. In the other hand, some of the brands, such as Weslo for instance, could be rated higher, given that their products are simple machines for home use at prices so low that as many people as possible can afford them (like IKEA furniture).
