Pros: Relatively inexpensive. Solid stucture
Cons: Large and heavy. Difficult to fold up.
Heart monitor never reads correctly.
The Bottom Line: I would spend more time at Sears using this treamill. There are a lot of features that are perfect for serious runnings, not casual walkers.

| seablanco1's Full Review: NordicTrack C 1800 Treadmill |
I tested this model at Sears and found that the controls were easy to use and it felt compfortable. I think that it is a rather long treadmill (about 5' long) and realized after I purchased it, as a short female, I would have looked for something 1/2 the size.Whether you are using it for a stroll of 3.0-3.5 or a slow jog, you feel that that the machine will hold up. It actualy feels much sturdier then many of those in health Clubs.
This treadmill has a feature which allows you to purchase
video tapes and plug the machine into the front of the unit.
The video involes scenery and paces you along the same pace that you are walking. This does not come with the product, you have to order it separately. You can also download music
specically for the machine from the internet. I have not done either, however with ALL toys I am tempted.
Personally, I would have bought a smaller treadmill. This is
a large piece of equipment. I have it right in my family room in front of the tv since it did not fit in the bedroom.
It is not easy to move. Folding the machine up can be hard partculariy if you are tired from your workout.
