treadmill advice needed

I am looking to purchase my first treadmill. I love running but need something for when the weather is just completely nasty and on those days that I just can't get out.
So, I am looking at the Epic 705CT does anyone own one of these and have opinions on it??? this is the only one that sparked my interest that was within my price range.
I am 5'6 107lbs and run on average of 5-7 miles a few times a week.. but I am hoping to use it daily with a minimum of 4 miles each time and I am hoping to increase my distance..... I guess I just need to know if this is a quality machine that can handle what I am wanting to use it for....?
I am planning to save up to purchase a higher quality treadmill later on down the road but it could be a while before I can save up enough.. so I am hoping this one can hold up at least 2years.
Any feedback is helpful...

I'd invest in some decent gore tex and under armor and keep running outside. I am not a fan of the treadmill. Just sayin'. Hope you change your mind on this.0
