At Home Fitness Featuring Landice Treadmills

At Home Fitness is proud to be an exclusive authorized retailer for Landice Treadmills. Year after year Landice continues to rack up “best buy” awards from all the leading consumer reporting guides.  How does a manufacturer continue to claim the top spot?  They stay focused on one thing; treadmills.  Landice has never strayed away from what they do best.  They have never turned success into greed and followed the path of many other manufacturers who tried their hand at making other types of fitness equipment.  A treadmill manufacturer should make treadmills.  Not home gyms, stair climbers and other home fitness equipment, it simply does not work well.  Landice continues to stay focused on what they know best; treadmills

 Landice’s product line up is simple; Landice L7 Sport; Landice L7 Pro Sport Trainer; Landice L7Cardio Trainer; Landice L7 Executive Trainer; Landice L8 Sport; Landice L8 Pro Sport Trainer; Landice L8 Cardio Trainer and the Landice L8 Executive Trainer. 

For all the customers out there that want the technical information, here you go.  This is a listing of the Landice parts and the quality that goes into each of their treadmills:

WE BUILD THE STRONGEST FRAMEThe Landice frame is made of aircraft quality 6063-T6 aluminum and secured with aircraft locking hardware. Costing three times more than steel, aluminum gives our frame the strength to support a user weighing up to 500 lbs.
Aluminum is an inert material — It does not rust.
When you run on a treadmill, you sweat. Sweat is salt water, which is highly corrosive and causes steel to rust. Steel treadmill frames, like automobiles, are painted to delay the rusting process but eventually, like automobiles, steel frames can rust from the inside out over the life of the treadmill.• Aluminum is three times stronger than steel per unit

weight
The Landice treadmills use aluminum frame construction and weigh over 275 lbs. It is this strength that allows us to offer up to a 500-lb. user weight capacity and a lifetime frame warranty. When money is not an option, auto manufacturers turn to aluminum over steel for car frames and engine blocks, therefore maximizing power and strength while simultaneously reducing weight.• Aircraft locking hardware is more reliable than welding
Both aircraft and Landice treadmills are assembled with locking hardware. Locking hardware provides a reliably repeatable system of securing the frame. The problem with a weld is that without x-ray equipment it is impossible to tell if a weld is solid. Poor welds may look solid but can lead to squeaking and eventually structural failure. Just as airplane wings do not fall off airplanes, Landice frames retain their structural integrity after years of heavy health club usage.When human lives are at stake in applications such as bridges and airplanes, designers choose to bolt rather than weld for consistent reliability.
WE USE THE MOST POWERFUL DRIVE MOTORLandice uses a 3 HP continuous duty drive motor. Made in the USA, this motor can continuously deliver 3 HP in our treadmill without overheating.
• Importance of horsepower rating
A 1.5 HP motor will run twice as hot as a 3 HP motor delivering the same load. The hotter a motor runs, the faster it will burn out. A good analogy involves a pickup truck and a dump truck. You can load both with the same number of bricks and drive them across the country back and forth for a year. The dump truck, however, will obviously last much longer.• Importance of the continuous duty rating
Beware of motors that depart from the continuous duty rating. The Landice motor is rated for 4.5 peak horsepower, which means it can deliver 4.5 HP for 15 minutes before it begins to overheat. If you overheat your motor you will shorten its life span.• Look at the drive motor’s physical size and construction

quality
Be sure to look at a motor’s physical size before buying a treadmill. Compare its size to that of a Landice for a good indication of its true continuous duty rating. Be sure to check out the quality of the motor. Does the motor have an integrated fan for additional cooling in its design or was it an after thought. What materials were used in the construction of the motor…metal, plastic or even paper?

WE USE THE HEAVIEST INSTITUTIONAL GRADE STEEL ROLLERSLook at our competitors who sell both home and club treadmills. All offer larger diameter rollers in
their more expensive institutional treadmills.
