Treadmills are a great way to lose weight and maintain a healthy body. In this article we will talk about Laufstein simulators, their strengths and weaknesses.
Advantages and disadvantages
The advantages of a Taiwanese manufacturer of simulators can include:
- excellent price-quality ratio, while the relative inexpensive cost is the quality of the construction at a height;
- a large number of training modes;
- compactness - small dimensions easily allow you to install them at home, and the folding design makes it possible to fold and remove the simulator if it is not needed;
- people who are overweight can work on these treadmills - for some models, the maximum user weight is 200 kg;
- health and safety control - built-in sensors and electronic security key protect users from overloads and injuries;
- the possibility of attaching additional devices - a player, speakers, and so on.
Some user discontent causes the device interface.

User's manual
When using treadmills, follow the safety instructions in the operating instructions.
Do not open the simulator cover - if any damage occurs, call a service technician from the service center. You yourself are unlikely to understand what the fault is, besides, you risk losing the warranty service.
Connection of the simulator should be carried out only through a grounded outlet. Do not connect the device through "tees" and extension cords, especially with the parallel connection of high-power electrical appliances.
Protect the device from ingress of moisture and dust - excessive humidity and dustiness of the air in the room dramatically reduces the life of the simulator and lead to breakdowns.
It is forbidden to put on the canvas foreign objects, and use the simulator to two people at the same time.
Keep pets and children under 12 years old away from the device. If your child is a little older, keep an eye on him when training him.
For any symptoms of discomfort during exercise, immediately stop exercising, and turn off the device.
Owner reviews
The vast majority of consumers are satisfied with their purchase. Users note the convenience and reliability of the design, small dimensions of the device, ease of use. And also an undoubted advantage in the eyes of consumers is the affordable price of the simulator. Another list of advantages of Laufstein simulators is complemented by a low noise level during operation, the ability to control the angle of inclination of the canvas and speed of running.
But there are owners who are dissatisfied with the interface (user programs) of the simulator. In some models, more than 100 training modes are installed, and it is difficult for an inexperienced user to understand this diversity.
