Smooth Fitness 5.65 Folding Treadmill
It is a folding treadmill machine suitable for home usage. Smooth Fitness began almost thirty years ago and is among the largest online retailers of home fitness equipment. It sells equipment direct from the manufacturer. The Smooth Fitness 5.65 Folding treadmill is durably built and has many exceptional features. Worth the price and then some!
“We’ve had it for 4 months now, used it hard nearly every day, and haven’t encountered the slightest problem. If you’re looking for a cheap(er) treadmill that works great and feels very solid, this is a great option.”
BUILT IN AUDIO SPEAKERS AND MP3 JACK
What a great feature! We all love to work out to music, why not built to audio components right into the treadmill its self!
“The onboard auxiliary jack for external MP3/music source is a nice touch. The treadmills at my local gym don’t even have that!”
DURABLE
High quality workmanship and quality parts make this treadmill one that is built to last.
“I have had this treadmill for nearly two years now and it runs just as good as the day I bought it. My wife and I use this to run about three times per week each and we run about 2-3 miles each time. It is really smooth actually and very quiet.”

HANDLEBAR CONTROLS
I really don’t understand why it took so long for someone to put controls on the handlebars. It is so much easier to use and may even prevent accidents! It just makes sense to put the speed control right next to your hand while you are running.
“Speed and incline can be changed quickly from the side hand rails, or the dash board. The Smooth Fitness 5.65 has 40 built in programs that automatically change the speed and incline of your workout (but speed and incline can also be changed manually at any time). Heart rate is checked from the 2 hand grips on the forward hand rail.”
QUIET
Ideal for condo living or smaller homes where excessive noise is frowned upon this treadmill is super quiet!
“The unit runs quietly & smoothly (as one would guess from a company called smooth fitness). Over all I’m very pleased with the machine and would recommend it to a friend.”

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
“I could not be happier with this product. It was shipped to me quickly and was easy to assemble. Although a heavy a piece of equipment, it rolled easily into place and works like a charm. When I am done with it, it folds up and is out of the way.”
