Weslo Manual Treadmill
By Robin OBrien
If you're looking to buy a manual treadmill, then you should take a look at a Weslo machine. Weslo currently make two models that are widely available and retail for around $100.
Weslo make cheap treadmills. If you're a serious runner looking for a motorized treadmill you shouldn't go near one of its models. The machines are sometimes advertised as entry-level treadmills; however, this is a euphemism for cheap. The motor you'll be getting is small, the warranty, short and the performance lacking. You just can't manufacture and sell a decent motorized machine at the price Weslo does.
However, it's a different story if you're looking to buy a manual machine. The Weslo manual isn't the best on the market but for some, the Weslo is cheap and could be the perfect piece of equipment for their exercise program.
The Weslo AerobicStride 2.0 Manual Treadmill
This is the first of the two manual treadmills by Weslo. The machine comes with a 2 position incline, a treadbelt size of 17" x 41", 2 balanced fly wheels that help keep the motion of the belt smooth and steady. The AerobicStride treadmill also has quite a small footprint and comes with wheels. The company claim to have designed this machine with 'SpaceSave' design. This is company jargon meaning that you can fold the machine down easily and store it away. The ' Step-by-Step ' console is very basic but it does give you information about your speed, time, distance and calories/fat calories burned.
The Weslo Cardio Stride Plus Treadmill
This machine is very similar to the AerobicStride in just about every respect. The console is the same, the treadbelt is the same size and it has wheels and can be easily folded and stored away. So, what is different about the Cardio Stride treadmill? Well, you have 3 incline positions rather than 2 and the frame looks and feels sturdier. It's a far nicer looking piece of kit that the AerobicStride.
Both of the company's manual models can accommodate a maximum user weight of 200 lbs, so if you are overweight, these machines aren't suitable. Neither is either machine suitable for running. The company claims that both of these machines can be used for either walking or running, but quite frankly, the treadbelts (17" x 41") at aren't wide or long enough for running and I doubt if the belts or fly wheels would last very long either.
So, should you buy a Weslo manual treadmill?
If you're of medium weight; want a machine for moderate walking; aren't looking to seriously burn off calories but are happy maintaining your present weight; and want a machine that is lightweight and foldable then you may want to think about buying one of its machines. What is also a big buyer incentive is that both models retail for around $100.
Finally, choosing which of the two treadmills to buy is a 'no brainer'. Buy the Weslo Cardio Stride Plus Treadmill. You get one more incline positions and a better frame than the AerobicStride 2.0 machine and it costs the same.
