Weight = Stability - The treadmill weight is very important to the overall stability of the machine. Both the Life Fitness T7 i and the Smooth 9.25X are heavy enough to provide a solid, stable feel.

Roller Size - A major component in providing a smooth walking/running experience and increasing the life of the treadbelt is the roller system. There is no substitute for size. Basically, the larger the better. That's why most commercial treadmills are equipped with oversize rollers. Both the Life Fitness T7i and the Smooth 9.25X come with commercial quality 2.5" rollers.

Deck Thickness - The Smooth 9.25X comes with a 1" thick phenolic laminate deck. This is the same thickness used in commercial treadmills. Phenolic helps keep deck and belt lubricated. This provides extended-wear, super quite operation and years of dependable service.

Factory Direct Sales - The Smooth 9.25X is sold factory direct and only on the Internet. Life Fitness sells their T-7i treadmills through local dealers and retail outlets. All purchases are subject to applicable local taxes.

Shipping Included - The prices for all of the Smooth Treadmills includes shipping to your home.
