Anyone have a compact/small treadmill? If so, what do you think of it?

I used to have a regular treadmill but gave it away because it took up so much room. I miss having it. I want something I can slide under the bed, is easy to drag back out and set up, and is durable.

    Got a model that you want in mind or seeking what's available?
    If you DO have a model available check out some online reviews of the product... if they have tech support / customer service how do they deal with problems etc? Not quite the same as here but if I were considering something like a Fitbit I'd check out their tech support and perhaps here on MFP to see what kind of issues users are having (if any) and how they are handled.

    Same qualifications I'm using to decide if I really want an e-reader, hate how they say "2 months reading time" but then when you read the fine print it may well get that IF you read 30 minutes a day only... just give me an expected battery life if I was reading on it from charge to needing recharged... work cell phone is horrendous I can start at 100% in the morning and unless it's just on standby all day it's down to 20% by the end of the day... even worse if you view any video on it etc.

    No specific model at this point. I have looked at some reviews on amazon.com for a couple of different ones, but I'm looking more for a general idea of if they are even worth it. I don't want to end up with another treadmill and find out the compact ones are junk.

    I'm really interested aswell, my house is tiny and a folding treamill would work out really well. The ones I'm finding though cost more that I'd really like to spend.. :(
