With one year of in-home service included in the price of the Smooth 9.17 HRO, you know the manufacturer is confident in the quality and durability of this folding treadmill. An updated version of the popular Smooth 9.15 treadmill, the 9.17 offers an upgraded motor and redesigned electronics console. The powerful 3 HP motor delivers quiet, consistent performance and, especially important for exercisers with leg muscle or joint problems, the shock absorption deck provides plenty of cushioning for a comfortable walk or run. The treadmill's console offers 6 different preset workout routines and stores profile information for up to 9 different users. This is a treadmill that the whole family can make use of. The unit’s weight means that it isn’t the easiest treadmill to move to and from a storage area but the upside of that is the solidity of the unit. The Smooth 9.17 HRO is a feature-rich home treadmill that should provide years of fun workouts.
