I'm researching treadmills / reading reviews. I would like a good one - high quality. (not one you might get at Sears, Dicks...) So, where around Akron / Cleveland would you recommend for buying one? Anyone know of some good fitness equiptment stores? I know I can find them on-line, but if there was a store where I could try it out, that would be nice. Kim

High end treadmills are an item you can get great bargins on in the used market. The same way fitness centers are mobbed in January with new years resolutions, treadmills get bought and almost never used. I got a Landice for about 35% of new, and it's held up great since I got it about 6 years ago. For new a quick google search turned up... www.livefit.com/www.healthandfitnessohio.com/

I have a vision fitness T 9500... bought at a local fitness store--- G and G fitness. There is a store in north olmsted, woodmere village and fairlawn. The great thing about a local store is that you can try then out. The women who sold it to me was very helpful-- Jane Beatty (north olmstead store). If she is still there... mention that I sent you. When I mentioned a name of someone who had also sent me there she gave me a discount. www.livefit.com/I love the treadmill. I have had it for 3 years and used it alot. with no trouble. BTW--- Don't buy a folding one.. they are alot less durable and stable. ANGIE

We have a Vision 9500 at home as well. I think we are the fourth person in this club to own it. Good machine.

Thank you all! I think I'll go check out G & G in Fairlawn. I'll be sure to look into the Vision treadmills, too. During my on line searches all I was finding were places like Dicks, WalMart, and Sears. Thanks for the help! I did check Craigslist, too. There was one on there in the Akron area that looked good. We'll see! Kim

Have to give props to Vision Fitness too - great products. We have a 7+ year old treadmill purchased new and still runs like it and an elliptical that we bought used and runs better than it looks. FYI clean your machines - sweat drops will take their toll
