    Could anyone recommend a good home treadmill, looking to pay 500 to 600 for it.

    I know that running outside is free but roads around here are very poor, so dont like running on them.

    Anyone bought a treadmill recently they can recommend or somewhere online or in Ireland to buy from, looking for something decent, 600euro. I might one with Black friday coming up end of November.

    I was looking for a while and I ended up buying a Sole treadmill secondhand. It had very little mileage approx 300km. It’s very heavy, stable with a wide and long belt, it’s a decent motor and I’ve run on it a good bit since with no problems. I looked at a lot of the new treadmills that are available at the 600 euro mark and I found a lot of them were narrow and flimsy and didn’t feel that stable to run on.

    A lot of them do look quite narrow and that would worry me. i don't mind paying more if necessary.

    Just checked the manual there now this is it:
    proform PF 3.6

    Its not small and quite heavy. I bought it new from a gym supply place near Blanchardstown
