to more elaborate internet research - which treadmill has a good price / performance ratio - I had decided on the Skandika Treadmill Marathon 7.0L. The delivery was quick and easy! The equipment has been delivered to me even up to the living room (4th floor, with elevator)! After the device was, however, unpacked (! It was very well packaged), I discovered the first minor blemish: the plastic lining of the left hand pulse sensors were damaged, the label "Skandika" at the rear of the cockpit was mounted dented, minor impurities on the white plastic panel could be seen. Already since the impression of a high-quality processing was not ... but all are more little things you may overlook / could. Not to be overlooked was against the left defective locking pin for locking cockpit. This could only once press; then you had to unscrew it if you wanted to release the lock (for folding) again. Furthermore, the large left locking button for the page frame was very difficult to pull out! When the unit finally stood in its place (in another room) and we wanted to turn it on, it did not work !!! The (pre) Joy to the device was now completely gone! Although the transport lock was removed, the Safety Key was installed properly (when installing you also heard that the relay switched off), the ON / OFF switch lit (ie flowing current) did not go to the display and not the treadmill !!! Now we had a treadmill that did not work, could not be immediately picked up again (takeaway; the weekend was imminent), smelled of plasticizers, had already paid .... After much back and Hertelefonieren and e-mail writing, to the treadmill tomorrow (finally!) again be picked up! The quality of the treadmill has really disappointed me! What I can not understand that, no Replacement or repair service is offered by the manufacturer in a class this unit. It is only redemption of the unit! Maybe it was a Monday device ?! I would certainly not buy it again and would not recommend! Therefore, there is unfortunately only one star from me.
