    I have read, for a quiet treadmill. Check the belt. Make sure it is not seamed straight across...it should be diagonal. Also, steel frame is recommended, and if you plan on running..do not get the folded upright treadmill if it is aluminum frame. The bar in front of the treadmill weakens in time and your balance will be off. If buying a used treadmill..make sure it is not dry rotted.
    Hope this helps!

    Feel free to add me ladies :) I don't have any suggestions on a treadmill, as I am looking for one myself currently!
    I wish you all the best of luck on this journey!
