A Review of the Image 16.0 Q Treadmill

The Image 16.0 Q treadmill is manufactured by Icon Health and Fitness, the largest manufacturer of retail fitness equipment in the world. Icon sells its products in a large variety of venues, including mass merchandisers, department and discount stores, and on the internet.

The Image 16.0 Q treadmill, like much of the fitness equipment made by Icon, is definitely an entry level model with a sale price of $599 (when buying direct from www.WorkoutWarehouse.com). Regular treadmill users, especially runners, should consider higher-quality entry level treadmills such as the Sole F63 and the Smooth 5.25.

For those on a tight budget who want to get started with a regular exercise program, the Icon 16.0q treadmill is an o.k. choice.

The Image 16.0 Q treadmill features a good LED window, using the Precision Response console to track progress. The Precision Response display features a 7” x 10” matrix display for easy reading.

Other features of the Image 16.0q treadmill include easy-to-use speed and incline controls for a more strenuous workout and more customizable workouts. In addition, the Precision Response grip pulse sensor allows the user to track his or her pulse easily and with an instant response.

The Image 16.0 Q treadmill comes equipped with a 2.5 horsepower motor and the unique Space Saver design allows the Image 16.0q to fold up for easy storage.

The Image 16.0 Q treadmill features an adjustable speed control of 0 to 10 miles per hour, as well as a power incline that is fully adjustable from a 1.5% to 10% incline. It also features five pre-programmed workout options and an acceptable 19” x 54” deck surface.

The bottom line on the Image 16.0 Q treadmill is that it is a budget model that will not last as long as more expensive models, but for those who want to get started on a fitness program but lack the funds to buy a better treadmill, the Image 16.0q treadmill can be an o.k. choice. Those with more to spend, however, will find competing models like the Sole F63 or the Smooth 5.25 a much better value.
