Reply #1: I had one years ago -- the Jane Fonda treadmill -- and I didn't like it.

I think you should be able to pick up a good electric one for next to nothing on Craig's List or at a garage sale. People are always buying those and then selling them when they don't end up using them. I had a pretty good one from Sears years ago that I either gave away or sold for 50 bucks -- I can't remember. I wish now that I had kept it but that was before the "empty nest" and I didn't really have a good place for it, especially when I quit using it. I have an exercise room now so at least it wouldn't be in the way when I'm not using it! ;)
