Keys Treadmills in review
Keys treadmills are a good quality range of treadmills offering
brilliant motor warranties and some nice features. They are
priced between $1,000 to $2,300 so offer a decent machine at a
cost effective price.
The best feature of keys treadmills is the motor warranty which
is set to 10 years. One of the most important parts of a
treadmill is the motor and if it breaks down the repair cost can
usually be quite hefty. With a 10 year warranty you will have no
such worries. This also provides testament to the durability of
these machines.
If you are overweight or expect to be using the treadmill a lot
then a keys treadmill might be worth looking at further.
What amazes me is although the machines have a 10 year motor
warranty they are only priced in the mid-price range. A lot of
commercial treadmills that have 10 years motor warranties are
priced $5,000 and up. Some even approach $10,000
Keys Fitness, manufacture all their treadmills in the USA but
import parts from overseas to help them stay competitive. As a
result their machines may not be as high a quality compared to
other machines made solely in the US where an eye can be kept
over the production process.
Advantages
The price tag of these machines range from as little as $1,000
and as high as $2,300. For this price, you’ll get a 10 year
motor warranty and a lifetime warranty on frames. If durability
is your number one concern then Keys treadmills offer a serious
advantage over other brands.
Disadvantages
As they are not made entirely in the USA their structural
quality may not be as good as other better known brands. Also
$2,000 might be a bit steep for some people so you might be
better off looking at cheaper treadmills that still have a
decent motor warranty (about 3 years).
Recommendation
Although this brand is known for being of average structural
quality, newer models have been showing some improvements. For
most people a 10 year warranty is not essential 3 years will
suffice. I recommend for people considering a Key treadmill to
look at other brands with a lower motor warranty but better
overall quality
