Hi again this week. I am covering the Stamina Inmotion II Manual Treadmill today because I find it interesting as far as treadmills go. It is ultra-compact and offers the just the basics in terms of expectations from a residential folding treadmill and yet it is ling indoor aerobic fitness equipment I have come across.
I assume that it’s easy set-up procedure, portability and storage ease along with a sturdy design and affordability lends itself to its popularity.

I have tried it just once at a friend’s home but found that the Stamina InMotion II Manual treadmill’s controls are a little confusing. Another thing is that its very basic nature makes adjustment (height etc) difficult. I was not too happy with its belt give and realized that given the dimensions of the treadmill, any user taller than say 5 feet 8 inches or over 100 kilos will find it uncomfortable to use it in terms of posture adjustment. For a treadmill that is manual, I found the belt noisy and inappropriately cushioned for endurance-type workouts.I think the Stamina InMotion II Manual treadmill may best be used for walking, low impact and weight loss exercises. However, it can support endurance and performance trainings. It is priced at USD 120 now and has a year’s warranty on the frame and 90 days on the parts.
My Rating of the Stamina Inmotion II Manual Treadmill – 2.5 out of 5 stars
