The Smooth 5.65 Folding Treadmill – Great Value for the PriceThe new for 2010 Smooth 5.65 folding treadmill is a $999 machine that is worth every penny. Although it is more of a walker’s treadmill than a runner’s, that doesn’t mean it offers less in terms of performance; indeed, a walking machine requires a powerful motor to run consistently at slower speeds. This model offers that and more. The MachineKey features on the Smooth 5.65 folding treadmill include a large blue back lit LCD display showing speed, time, distance, incline, calories, and heart rate. It comes with handrail toggle switches for incline and speed controls, and the 14 preset programs include 5 speed, 5 incline, 1 distance, 1 custom, manual, and heart rate control.

With its debut in November 2009, you won’t find many reviews on the Smooth 5.65 folding treadmill so you’ll have to rely on the reputation of Smooth Fitness, the largest online retailer of home fitness equipment, as well as the reviews of the 5.45, which the 5.65 is replacing. The Smooth 5.65 is lighter than the 5.45 but doesn’t forfeit any stability because of it. In addition, they’ve added heart rate controls, a deluxe sound system, more programs, and even increased the walking area.

Once inside, the Smooth 5.65 is very easy to set up and you’ll be doing your first workout in as little as 30 minutes.
