Originally priced at $1,799.99, they have dropped the price down to $899.99.

The Quick Speed and Power Incline controls allow you to change speeds and incline with ease, but that isn’t the best feature in my opinion. The 7-inch built-in TV screen, with speakers, is cable ready so that you can watch all your shows and not miss a thing while you’re working out.
