Favorite model of treadmill?

So I'd like to buy a treadmill and I'm leaning towards a Gold's Gym model just because I was a member years ago and liked the treadmill I used there. I want speed adjustment & incline. It has to be a heavier weight/horsepower. But realistically I don't know a lot about it. Anyone have experience or an opinion to share?

" I have a Pro-Form Crosswalk 375 E and I really like it. It has the incline and speed adjustment, plus it has the hand things so you can work out your upper body at the same time. "

" I have a Horizon brand treadmill and it is awesome! it's one of the more heavy duty types, good price, and definite good shock absorption - has these air bubble things under the ...whatever it's called - where you walk haha. (just got off work - brain fried!!) Anyway, I love it, got it at a sports store (MC Sports) a few years ago and they also have some dealer stores. They make ones for commercial use also. (mine has incline, speed, a built in fan, and programs) Good Luck! "

" Thanks Katie, that sounds like just what I want. I need to get walking again and the weather is so extreme (hot hot summer and freezing winter)that I don't get out the way I should.
