A Quick Look at the Landice Treadmills
|
These treadmills have come to be seen as primarily health club and gym treadmills, but in fact Landice also makes a number of excellent quality treadmills for the home market as well. In particular, the LTD series of Landice treadmills is built specifically for home use. Treadmill shoppers should be aware that the Landice brand does not come cheaply. The prices for most models of Landice treadmill start at around $3,000, but the quality is just as high as the price. Landice is focusing squarely on that segment of the market that understands the importance of quality and is willing to pay the price to achieve that quality. The Landice brand of treadmill comes with a number of important benefits over lower priced treadmills. For instance, Landice offers a large walking and running surface, much larger than much of their lower priced competition. In addition, their treadmills couple that large running surface with a powerful motor. This is an important distinction, since a large belt and a small motor will quickly result in a burned out motor and a useless treadmill. Landice stands behind the treadmills they make with a lifetime warranty on their residential models, and this says a lot about the quality of these treadmills. The frame on the Landice brand of treadmill is made of aircraft locking hardware, providing a stronger frame than the standard welded frame found on many competing brands of treadmill. In addition, these find treadmills have a large weight capacity of 400 to 500 pounds depending on model, and the variable flex cushioning they use helps to absorb shock vertically. This cushioning helps to prevent the rocking motion that can be bad on the knees and other joints. The Landice brand of treadmills include a four ply treadbelt surface that is twice as strong as the typical two ply treadbelt included on other brands. This thick surface helps to prolong the useful life of the belt and the treadmill as a whole.. All in all, the Landice brand is one of the best in the world of treadmills. Perhaps the only drawback of Landice treadmills is the price. These treadmills are among the most expensive on the market, but for the serious fitness enthusiast they are worth every penny.
