The product advertised in the online catalogue is the Reebok Fusion REV-10301, however Reebok no longer make this model. If you order it, you will get a totally different model - the Reebok Vector REV-11301. It is has cream-coloured trimmings, it doesn't have the motion sensors, nor does it have the drinks holders. You have been warned.

thats a bit annoying - i'm getting mine delivered today, (hopefully) i'll let you know what i get!! lol

I have the same query as on the previous page of this thread, but no one answered it... is it safe to have a treadmill in an upstairs flat? I live in a sixth floor flat in a converted building too. I want to get a treadmill as it's pretty much the same price as six months of gym membership but I can't decide if it's safe or not. It won't be very moneysaving if I end up wrecking my flat and the flat below! The only info I found out involved some complicated sounding stuff about joists, which I have zero idea about and wouldn't know how to find out. Does anyone know if it would be safe?

I live in a house and have one on my concrete ground floor. I would never entertain taking it to another floor in my house with it being wooden floorboards. If you have concrete purpose built, I would say go for it but if you hear your neighbours or they hear you, I would say it's easier to avoid. You could always improvise and ask a neighbour to run in your flat and listen from theirs below.
Unless you are 6 stone in weight then maybe you'd be lightfooted and fine - I'm not!

Hope this helps although it's probably not the answer you want to hear.

Could anybody give me the dimensions of this model treadmill when it is in the folded position?

Also, as a previous poster has asked, does anybody know the continuous duty hp (horse power) rating of the motor?

Hello - such a useful website. I am also thinking of purchasing the Reebok treadmill and going by the reviews, it seems like a good choice. There is one thing I would like to know and am wondering someone would reply to my query.... is there shock absorbers built into the treadmill Or is it really loud when running on it? (ie. does it thump loud with each stride?) This info doesnt seem to be on the specs information and would appreciate if someone could let me know.

Many Thanks
jen

Hi

I ordered the reebok treadmill on Tues and it got delivered on Friday (the same week).

Easy to assemble but when plugged in, treadmill blew sparks and the whole house ended up with no electrics. (The cable connecting to the treadmill blew, NOT the plug in the wall) Reset the elecs in garage and plugged it in again only to blow again and trip the electrics. (not sure what the term is - im not an electrician). Ordered a replacement. Argos staff dealt with efficiently but really disappointing to find treadmill faulty.
