Precor Treadmill Reviews  

 

As far as the consumer marketplace is concerned Precor treadmills arguably lead the industry. It’s a status that is reflected in the price but if you want the very best home treadmill experience then you need look no further…
Precor have been producing treadmills for over twenty years and not just for the consumer marketplace. Precor treadmills can be found in fitness facilities around the world and are a favorite amongst many well known health clubs.

Costing upwards of $3000 it’s no surprise that Precor’s home treadmill range usually attracts the more serious (and affluent) runner. Their reputation for quality, hugely powerful motors, oversized running decks and club quality electronic consoles goes some way to justifying the hefty price tag. But more importantly they are highly regarded by independent experts…

The industry renowned treadmill evaluation complied by Runners World Magazine placed Precor in their top ten treadmills. Scoring well for stability, cushioning, quietness and pace accuracy they outperformed many other well recognised brands. It’s also worth noting that Precor treadmills have received favourable comments from the experts at Treadmill Doctor and rank highly in the well recognised Monster Ratings.

If you really want to gauge the quality of any treadmill simply look at the warranty. If the manufacturer has a lot of confidence in the durability of their products they will back wearable parts with at least five years protection. Precor have recently revised their warranty for 2003…

All Precor treadmills sold for home use are covered by a ten year manufacturer warranty on parts, lifetime cover on the frame and welds and one year for labor. As far as any type of exercise equipment goes this is hard to beat.

With that in mind let’s take a closer look at some specific Precor models and find out why they are so highly regarded...

 

Precor M9.31 Treadmill

We Like: There are Treadmills on the market that cost 1/3 of the price, yet have far more Gadgets and Gizmos than the Precor M9.31. But the people who buy Precor Treadmills do so because they believe they are buying the highest quality Treadmill there is, and that’s what this – A runners dream made of the finest components.

We Dislike:
Precor could have included a heart monitor for $3000. Also make sure that you have a big room for this because this Precor doesn't fold.

Folding: No
Heart Rate: No
Maximum Incline: 15%
Maximum Speed: 11mph
Motor Size: 2.75 hp continuous duty
Running Surface: 57in x 20in

Precor M9.33 Treadmill

We Like: The Precor M9.33 is a very similar treadmill tothe Precor M9.31 above in terms of mechanical specification, but this Precor is much more complete in terms of equipment with two user profiles, heart rate monitoring and thirteen preset workout programs. If you buy it now, and run for an hour everyday, you will still be able to use it in 20 years time.

We Dislike: Nothing really, Ok at nearly $4000 it is expensive, but so is an S-class Mercedes…

Folding: No
Heart Rate: Yes
Maximum Incline: 15%
Maximum Speed: 11mph
Motor Size: 2.75 hp continuous duty
Running Surface: 57in x 20in

Precor M9.35 Treadmill

We Like: For an extra $350 more than the Precor M9.33, you get a slightly more powerful machine, complete with commercial grade 3.0 HP motor and some extra preset workout programs. This Precor also accommodates the user profiles of up to four people. Both the M9.33 and M9.35 are the crème de la crème of home Treadmills

We Dislike: Nothing....

Folding: No
Heart Rate: Yes
Maximum Incline: 15%
Maximum Speed: 11mph
Motor Size: 3.0 hp continuous duty
Running Surface: 57in x 20in
