Landice makes a quality
treadmill, but is it worth the huge mark-up. For example, with the Landice L7
Road Runner treadmill you could pay an additional $1,100 over a comparable Smooth
9.25X treadmill. And that doesn't factor in the additional cost of shipping
and taxes. All Smooth Treadmill prices include shipping.
| Note:
Landice does not offer their lifetime warranty to residential online sales. That
offer is only available through retailer stores. If you buy a Landice machine
online you get a commercial warranty of 5 years parts and 1 year service. |
Why are Landice
Treadmills considerably higher in costs? One reason is you are paying for the
additional costs of the retailer/middleman. Unlike Smooth, Landice does not sell
direct. Consequently Landice may be paying an additional 25-35 points to the retailer.
That can increase the cost of your Landice treadmill 25%-35% over a comparable
Smooth treadmill.
In
most cases the online purchase of a Landice is being sold through a retailer that
ends up having the product drop shipped. These companies do not even have the
treadmill in their possession. Unlike Smooth sales and service staff, these companies
are generally unfamilar with the products they are selling.
Take
the treadmill challenge and make your own decision. Compare the various features
and see how they match up. Then see how drastic the prices can be between Smooth
and Landice.
