You may balk at the warranty for the Star Trac treadmills, however, especially as its terms are on the unique side.  Instead of offering a set warranty for each model, the company offers warranty based on two criteria – the purchase amount of the treadmill and the type of usage for which the treadmill will undergo.  Thus, if you purchased the Star Trac treadmill for commercial gym use, then the warranty is for 2 years while home owners will be provided with warranty on parts for 3 years. We suggest asking the vendor for more details as you want to be well-informed about the specific terms and provisions on the warranty.

On the upside, with its durable construction, the machine can outlive its warranty by a mile and a half.  Take note that these treadmills are designed for heavy-duty commercial use with just one model adapted for home use in terms of size, features and price.  Did we mention that the treadmills were designed with the assistance of by the famed DesignWorks USA?
