    By default it usually has standard delivery selected when confirming the order, are you not able to opt for the free delivery?

    Can't get free delivery, either. Strange and upsetting.

    Would a treadmill really fit into a Parcel Motel box?

    You can pick it up from their main center in Finglas. May need to pay a little bit extra based on the "dimensional weight" of the item, but usually not much.

    it only goes to 10kph, now I'm no usain bolt myself but just to draw peoples attention to it. That's a mile every 9 minutes 40 secs

    Ask about it in the fitness forum maybe first. Cheap treadmills don't usually last too long.

    That would be something a lot of people would miss and quite a big issue, pretty sure gym treadmills can get up to 25kph, definitely 20kph, to be honest 10kph is a very slow jog/power walk.

    10kph is a power walk ? How long are your legs ? ? :pac:

    I also only see the ''one-day delivery'' option, for over a hundred quid. Pity :(

    I am tall, but friends of mine walk slow-ish on treadmills at 7kph and the speeds I've seen some power walkers going 10kph seems do-able!

    Wikipedia agrees with me nearly "Power walking or speed walking is the act of walking with a speed at the upper end of the natural range for walking gait, typically 7 to 9 km/h (4.5 to 5.5 mph). To qualify as power walking as opposed to jogging or running, at least one foot must be in contact with the ground at all times (see walking for a formal definition)." :P

    You'd be better off buying a clothes horse.

    Cheaper, will fold away nicely and it's what 99% of these treadmills are destined for.
