The NEW Peloton Tread Review - First Impressions and 8 Months In

[@colourmefuchsia]

This is the most thorough reviewed I’ve found. Thank you!! I’m going to test this out today.

[@nakishalee6210]

Excellent review! I just got the basic Tread and I love it, but agree with your review whole heartedly on the sound system and tray. Also you named my fav instructors as well!!! I just shared your review with some friends who are on the fence with purchasing a Peloton tread. Again, awesome review!

[@RachelRegal]

Love that!! Thank you so much!

[@ebaustin99]

Thanks for a very helpful review! You convinced me to go to a Peloton store and give it a test run.

[@RachelRegal]

Nice! Did you like it?!

[@ebaustin99]

@@RachelRegal Yes, very much thanks

Best review I found, thank you!

Hi, how tall is your basement ceiling? Also, do you think I can fit the Tread in a Subaru Forester?

[@elkid6743]

[@NotYourMama916]

I appreciate the comparison to Apple products. It made my choice easier! Thanks! 😊

[@RachelRegal]

You'll love it!

Hi! I recently had my Peloton Tread delivered. I noticed that when I am just standing on the belt, trying to navigate through the touchscreen every few seconds I hear a loud click noise from the right middle side. Any idea what this could be? Is it normal? Thanks for any assistance you could give :)

[@emiroze9438]

Is having a mat ok below it?

[@user-sw1rb1ne9c]

Thank you for all the insight and comparison! I’ve been debating the tread but my boyfriend is 6’2” and I’m not sure if it’ll be too compact for him. Has your husband had any issues with that? And also just doing a normal walk/run without a class, are they features the same as a regular treadmill?

[@RachelRegal]

The Tread is just like using a regular treadmill! My husband hasn't had any issues, but he's not 6'2. I wouldn't see any issue with someone who is around 6'2. Maybe only when you start to get around 6'4+, depending on the height of your ceiling and what incline you're on. We had a friend who's around 6'4 on it and they had no problems.

[@jackiebarnettjr4576]

The Tread + isn't available due to the recall... is that correct? Is it coming back soon?

[@RachelRegal]

Yes, they’ve stopped selling it due to recall. I don’t know when they’ll allow it to be sold again!

[@craigdore7735]

Did you stop going to OTF? I have been a member for 6 years.

[@RachelRegal]

Yes I did!

[@BBerryAddict]

Did your tread have a thumping sound when you received it?

[@RachelRegal]

Nope! It's practically silent

[@1baomao]

Where did you get the little fan that you attached to the treadmill? Link please. Thanks.

[@RachelRegal]

Amazon! It's okay. I ended up buying another floor fan which I like better. Portable fan: bit.ly/2VisoEm Floor fan: bit.ly/3tfwV6V

[@sweetGGbaby]

Thank you for the review. What floor do you have the tread on? Are you concerned that it might damage the floor without a mat? I am waiting for my tread delivery and wondering if I need to use a mat underneath it to protect my hardwood floors.

[@RachelRegal]

It's just peel and stick vinyl on cement floors, and we have the Peloton mat underneath it! So no, we're not worried about it at all. :) It does move ever so slightly with use, so I recommend something protective on real wood floors.

[@Mr_Nurse_FO3]

@@RachelRegal I have carpet in the room I want to put it in..which is also on the second floor of my house. Do you think I should still use the mat?

[@RachelRegal]

@@Mr_Nurse_FO3 I wouldn’t. I think that Peloton recommends against the mat actually. It can get sucked up the back and be dangerous. We probably wouldn’t use a mat if we had carpet!

[@kellilacroix9203]

Does it come with any accessories, mat, heart rate monitor? Also does it sync with your apple watch?

[@RachelRegal]

It doesn't come with any accessories, you have to buy everything separate (you can use my referral code to get $100 off of those) and it does not sync with Apple Watch -- that's part of the "What I Would Change" section of the video!

[@Mr_Nurse_FO3]

I looked at some of the recommendations for room around the tread. How did you go about placing it in the room?

[@RachelRegal]

We have a book in the room that only made sense for a piece of equipment like this and it didn’t make sense anywhere else in the room due to its size! The delivery team had it moved up away from the wall but we moved it back a little bit so we had more room to do strength classes in front of it. It’s a lot smaller than it seems and fit really well in our space.

[@Mr_Nurse_FO3]

@@RachelRegal got you. Just have to make due with the space you have.

[@doug7745]

What about cost and monthly fees

[@RachelRegal]

What is the level of noise generated by this treadmill? Thanks.

[@Sw96579]

Do you miss Orangetheory? I have the bike and I really want the tread.

[@RachelRegal]

Not really. I find that I actually work harder when I'm by myself because I'm not afraid of what I look like 😂

[@Sw96579]

@@RachelRegal - one more question..do you think it’s suitable for a second floor? Thinking about putting it in my spare bedroom on the second floor. Does it make a lot of noise while in use?

[@Sw96579]

@@RachelRegal - thanks for your reply and feedback

[@RachelRegal]

@@Sw96579 sorry, I just saw your follow up question! I’ve heard of others who have it on second floors and they don’t have issues. It is pretty noisy when running on the belt fast but otherwise super quiet! I could just be a heavy footed runner :)

[@nakishalee6210]

@@RachelRegal Agree! When running at a high speed upstairs (on carpet), my dtr downstairs says it sounds like I’m coming through the ceiling, lol! But we can hear normal walking in certain areas coming from upstairs, so I’m pretty sure it’s an issue with my floors and not the tread. Just moved into this house.

[@doublel10202]

Great review. Do you still go to Orange Theory now that you have the Tread? I love Orange Theory but it's not close to my new house. :-(

[@RachelRegal]

Nope! It fills that void for me now.

[@amaliab247]

So, after getting my refund back . Peloton still hadn't picked up my treadmill. What should I do? I contacted them three different times to get it picked up but every time they were supposed to show up and pick it up. they never call me to say they aren't going to show, they just don't show up. What should I do. Keep it, and never reply to them ? Or try and contact them for the fourth time ????

[@RachelRegal]

I’m not employed by Peloton but I assume they’d want you to stay in contact! Try reaching out on Facebook.

[@amaliab247]

@@RachelRegal thank you for answering back. I actually don't have Facebook or Instagram but I will email them once more. Thank you!

So did you get to keep the thing? Lol

Thanks for the video! Been looking at treadmills and I think we're going to go with the Tread

[@RachelRegal]

That’s great! We love it. Good luck!

[@lainy8742]

Wish there’s a part of how it sounds when walking or running 🙄

[@RachelRegal]

Great idea! It’s quiet except for your steps. Sounds like most other treadmills, maybe a little quieter, especially when walking.

[@nenislucio23]

@TreadmillReviewGuru has a KZbin channel and they reviewed the Peleton and they show you how it sounds walking/running

[@waryinzero]

How noisy is it?

[@RachelRegal]

It’s pretty quiet! You can really only hear your steps when running. Sounds like most treadmills, maybe slightly quieter.

Hm, I haven't seen the Peloton bikes at Goodwill/thrift stores for $40 and I thrift shop every week. I've only seen them at high end estate sales for $1500+! You must be a lucky thrifter!
