Schwinn Treadmill

Schwinn treadmill is the brand, brought in the markets by DF Hebb. These brands are owned by the Nautilus Health and Fitness Group which is the second largest manufacturer of fitness equipments in the world and brings years of experience in making fine exercise machines for us.

Schwinn caters to lower and mid price segment of the market. These treadmills are typically available in the price range of $1,400 to $ 2,000.

Schwinn has come out with 3 models of treadmills in the market. These include Schwinn 820p Treadmill, Schwinn 835p Treadmill and Schwinn 845p Treadmill. Let us have a look at each of these treadmills for a better understanding.

Schwinn 820p is the base version of treadmills available in the category. It has a price tag of around $ 1399 and has a relatively junior motor of 2.0 HP. The motor is a continuous one, ensuring smooth and vibration free performance for years together.

The running surface of 54 X 20 inches is adequate for serious fitness seekers. The top speed of 10 mph is more than enough for most of us. The incline ratio of 15% and a heart rate monitoring system are added feature of this model and is a great value buy in the category.

Schwinn 835p is in the mid segment having a price tag of around $ 1699. There is not much value addition in this model as compared to the base version of 820p and hence is not a very popular model among treadmill users.

Schwinn 845p comes with a slightly better performing motor of 2.5 HP capacity. The top speed of 11 mph and the maximum user weight of 300 lbs as compared to 275 lbs for 820p and 835p are the extra you are going to get by opting for this treadmill. It comes at a cost of $ 1,999 and seems an expensive proposition.

Schwinn faces stiff competition from some of the other brands in the category due to better features and prices. Thus it is a good idea to compare and take a trial run before opting for one.
