Pros: Great workout; nice console, safer than many pieces of equipment.
Cons: The way the resistance changes is a deal breaker for me.

Pros: Excellent machine, easy to use.
Cons: Pricey and very heavy
Summary: We bought the Treadclimber TC5000 after several other pieces of equipment, including a treadmill; a rowing machine; a total gym; an ab lounger; and lastly a Gazelle Freestyle. These soon became lawn sale items, eBay and/or laundry hangars. We are both ... read more

Pros: Space saver
Cons: LOUD, breaks easily, poor construction, customer service needs to get their act together.
Summary: Beware before you buy any of their treadclimbers. I bought the TC3000 in Oct of 05. Got it home, assembled it, and it rocked from side to side when I used it. Mind you I am only 5'4 120lbs. So they replaced some parts on it no problems, then the ... read more

Pros: It is simple to use. It gives me a good workout.
Cons: Doesn't go faster than 4.0 mph.
Summary: I purchased mine after it had been on the market for a while. I got mine used from a lady who wanted a treadmill instead of a treadclimber. Her reason for selling it was that it does not go over 4.0 mph. Other than it is expensive if

Pros: Good workout when it works
Cons: TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE and the machine is a piece of junk
