About Treadmill Reviews
Our Transparent Treadmill Review Process
At TreadmillReviews.net, our reviews are grounded in a rigorous and transparent evaluation process to ensure they are accurate, reliable, and practical for our readers. Each treadmill undergoes hands-on testing by our team of fitness experts, who assess its performance across key criteria such as build quality, motor power, deck cushioning, noise levels, and user interface. We also test treadmills under various workout conditions, including walking, jogging, and high-intensity running, to replicate real-world usage. Using professional-grade tools, we measure power consumption, speed and incline accuracy, and noise levels at different intensities. This data-driven approach ensures our recommendations are backed by measurable performance metrics, giving users confidence in their purchasing decisions. We have been testing treadmills for 20+ years, and we have modernized our testing methodology for 2025 with data driven testing.

Our History
We started out in Minneapolis. We love the mini-apple. What we aren’t so keen on there? The winter weather. It’s so cold that Minnesotans have put pedestrian tunnels between buildings. You don’t want to run outside in Minneapolis. Sometimes, coach had us running on treadmills by November. That’s where it all began. Our treadmill reviews contain honest advice from one trainee to another. If a track doesn’t work for intense training, we’ll tell you. If a treadmill costs too much, we’ll tell you that too.

As well as providing objective treadmill reviews, we frequently post expert articles about treadmill workouts, maintenance and other related topics in our article section and our blog.
