Runner's World Top 10 Treadmill Ratings

The Runner's World editors evaluated what they consider to be the 10 best treadmills.

The review focused on higher-end "home" or "residential" treadmills priced between $1,400 to $4,500. This is the range of machines that can withstand the rigors of a regular workout from a dedicated runner. They go on to say that you may find cheaper models with similar features, but they will not hold up over time.

The Runner's World staff evaluated each treadmill by the following criteria (which is what you should consider when buying a new treadmill)

Cushioning - How well the treadmill's belt and deck absorb the shock of your footstrikes? This does not necessarily mean you want a treadmill that has the softest feel.
Stability - The smoothness of the ride is probably the most important quality of a good treadmill. Is it solid and secure? Or does it flex, jiggle and hesitate as you run?
Actual Pace - This is the pace accuracy based on actual distance in comparison to the display reading. The rating below is based on an 08:00 minute display. The closer to that time the better the accuracy.
Decibels - This test how loud the treadmill is at an 08:00 pace. The lower the number the quieter.
