Treadmills are the most popular workout machine in the U.S. The machines come in three price categories, from low-end to high.
Before you buy a treadmill, size up the room where you plan to place it. Do you need a treadmill with a folding deck or will
the room accommodate a stationery one? Also consider the intensity of your workout and whether you'll be walking or running.
Consumer Reports tested an array of treadmills and has Ratings and recommendations for models across the price spectrum.
