Should you buy a treadmill this Amazon Prime Day?

Should you buy a treadmill: Image shows woman using treadmill in apartment

Exercise equipment can be eye-wateringly expensive, so is it worth buying a treadmill on Amazon Prime Day? In short, yes, it definitely makes sense to purchase a machine when it’s carrying a serious discount. And it’s likely that the Amazon Prime event, which kicks off on July 11, will offer some great prices on top-range treadmills.

In previous years, we’ve seen a combination of factors pushing up the prices of treadmills. Interrupted supply chains and a higher demand for the machines meant that they were often priced above the MSRP. That’s not the case anymore and we’re already seeing machines retailing for a lot cheaper; for example the budget REDLIRO folding electric treadmill has already been cut by $61, which means that it’s currently available for $289.99 on Amazon.
