Just a bit of advice to anyone wanting to take Argos up on their half price offer on the Reebok Edge 2.2 Treadmill - DON'T!!!
I purchased this very same treadmill in December 2010, because it was suitable for people up to 18st 3lbs, and had a 2 year warranty.
I didn't really start to use it until this year when I started my "healthy living" routine, but this year alone, I've had it repaired twice, replaced, then the replacement has been repaired and now, I'm having it taken away.
After all this time, a Reebok representative told me that although it's not specified anywhere, this treadmill is not designed to be used for more than 30 minutes at a time!!! I'm training for a 10K followed by 3 marathons, and in the bad weather, I've been running on it for more than an hour and a half at a time.... Even at half price, at £299, this is certainly not a worthwhile investment.
