Once Big Deal Days is over, the price goes back up, so if you’ve been waiting for the right moment to get this ‘mill, this is it. Shop Amazon Prime Big Deal DaysI’ve run on this treadmill many, many times, and I’m a big fan. It’s just so fun and convenient, and dang, the cushioning is Goldilocks-level good.
Not too firm, not so plush you feel like you’re springing on a mattress. You have enough ground feel for your push off, and softness when you land, thanks to the multi-zone style of the cushioning on the deck. It’s not a treadmill where you’re going to be overly worried about shoe choice because of the bouncy deck, I’ve taken plated trainers on this and done just fine.
This sale is coming at the perfect time because the Peloton Cross Tread is an incredible gift for a runner. If your spouse runs, this is the kind of present that earns you all the brownie points. The same goes for a parent or an adult child who runs.
It gives them the option of running indoors, with their favorite trainers, versus heading out into foul weather. The Tread has a 24-inch HD touchscreen with front and rear-facing speakers, so you can actually hear your trainers or whatever you’re watching on Netflix. Speed runs from 0 to 12.5 mph and incline from 0% to 12.5%.
You can adjust both with physical knobs, so you never stab at a screen mid-stride and miss. The jump buttons let you leap up in speed and incline with one press, which I like to do when I’m feeling adventurous. My favorite feature (other than the apps) is auto-incline.
