Treadmill

Can anyone recommend a good treadmill that they have personally used?

Wanting to spend between £200 - £300

I want one that folds well (the smaller when folded the better)

I am currently looking at getting this one unless I can find a better one...

With Leo on you back to add weight so you lose the pounds quicker. Or just buy a treadmill lol. They had one at a local charity shop last Monday. Might have sold it by now and a long way to come of course

Sorry I can't help as I don't own a treadmill. I go to my local park which has an outdoor wooden gym funded by the National Lottery. The advantage for me is that I've never bought a lottery ticket but get a free quality outdoor wooden gym.

But do you work full time and have a husband and pre school age child to cope with?

Yes, no, yes. I have a wife and a few girlfriends.

If you read my edited post above you will note that I haven't paid for the outdoor wooden gym and it is high-quality.

I have unmasked you Alpha. You are Boris Johnson, the wife, girlfriends and not paying for your gym workouts is proof ;)

Wanting to spend between £200 - £300

I want one that folds well (the smaller when folded the better)
Calorie counting
Quiet as possible & well made

I am currently looking at getting this one unless I can find a better one...

You'll return it or sell it within a month , just like the previous treadmill and exercise bike. They take up too much room

I have a York Fitness treadmill from Argos but looks like they don't stock that brand anymore, not to mention it was already on clearance when I purchased it. So can't really offer much advice other than to say if the one you want isn't currently in a sale, it might be worth waiting until they reduce it and perhaps save around ~£50 on promotion.
