Peloton Tread

[Anonymous]

Anyone have one? I was considering buying one right before they raised the price by $1000. I like the size and look of it for the price but may not want to keep the monthly peloton subscription - anyone use it with that? We have a Nordic Track right now and the new ones are huge and Ifit has always been clunky. Not sure of a better brand for under $3500.

If you don't want to pay for the monthly fee, look at sole fitness. They just came out with a new one that looks similar to peleton.

If you're not actually wanting to use the Peloton program, I would not buy the Tread personally.

Op here here. I do want to use the program but I'm not sure for how long. I'd like the option to use it without too.

The app is cheaper per month than the all access program you use with the tread, and I think there’s a free trial with the app. So if you currently have a treadmill, sign up for the app to see if you’d enjoy their classes. If you don’t, just get a different treadmill.

I have a peloton treadmill and have had others in the past. I don’t think there’s anything special about the Peloton tread without the classes. I love having the screen right there with all of my metrics, and I like the classes. But if you don’t think you’ll like the classes, there’s no reason to get their tread.

OP here - meant to add that we need to buy a new treadmill as the nordic track broke down and after 10 years, it is no longer worth fixing.

I got a tread last year for Xmas and i've really enjoyed it.

I wasn't exercising at all before the purchase, but i've used it pretty regularly and i'm seeing results. I do enjoy the classes but i watch the recordings rather than live classes.

I don't have any treadmills to compare against, but overall i've had a good experience.

I love my peloton tread. I started out with just the app (from a friend) and using the outdoor walking programs. Now with the tread I am using it much more and enjoy the classes a lot. There is much more than just walking/running. the strength training, stretching, yoga, meditation etc is excellent too.
highly recommend! FYI, if you go into their store, you can make an appt to come in and do a workout class to try it out

I just went to the Peloton app and clicked on some of the walks to check them out. It’s telling me cost is $12.99 a day after the free trial. Is it really $390.00 a month for access?

The app costs more if you have the Tread. It’s crazy. I think it’s $39/mo vs $12.99 for app only.

$12.99 a month for the app for one user

It's $40 a month for all access - which you have to use if you want the full metrics on a peloton tread or bike but it includes the regular app and more accounts /people under that fee

The Peloton app stated $12.99 a DAY - not per month.

I've had the Peloton bike for two years and absolutely love it and have been salivating over the tread, but now that they raised the price, I just can't pull the trigger to do it. Everyone I know who has it loves it and says it's an excellent tread, Peloton aside, but they're all Peloton users like me. I don't see the benefit in getting it if you're not going to use the Peloton content, which would be $40ish a month for the full access (I like all their content, not just the bike, so to me it's worth having all access).
I place the Peloton tread in the high end category of fitness equipment. If you're looking to go high end but not Peloton, maybe check out Truefitness. My SIL is a runner and just bought their tread and raves about it.

Nope, a month https://www.onepeloton.com/app?utm_campaign=26629827&utm_content=315508484&utm_medium=search&utm_source=google_search&gclid=CjwKCAjwhNWZBhB_EiwAPzlhNgc4_RMAlyJsczJSboR-R-SsudPgjHrKbUz0nuBpIC0YUzG7vozMRRoCGa4QAvD_BwE

The Peloton treadmill looks and feels very cheap to me, which is ridiculous given the price! I'd go with the app and invest the money in a quality tread like a Woodway.
