  We recommend the use of this durable mat with your fitness equipment. It absorbs noise and prevents damage to delicate flooring such as wood (195 cm x 108,5 cm).

Customer Reviews

I have just recently purchased my Smooth 5.15e treadmill and at £ 549 it was a great buy. I got a lot of treadmill for my money, its solid and relatively quiet. I realize its just a base modell and does not have many of the features more expensive treadmills do. I probably would have liked to have the motion control, but my budget did not allow for more and overall I am pretty satisfied with my purchase.

I received my Smooth 5.15e treadmill a few weeks ago. Was really looking forward to doing something for my fitness and figure before summer. And it is great to be able to get on my treadmill at home, no matter what the weather, no time consuming visit to the gym. It might not have all the features of a more expensive unit but it serves my purposes.

Just wanted to let you know that I love my treadmill (Smooth 5.15) that I purchased last February and I have recommended your treadmill to two friends who also purchased treadmills from you within the last 6 months -- Jill and Howard H. and Karen and Rob C.. Each friend is very satisfied with their treadmill. I read your add in Runner's World magazine and found your product to be superior to treadmills found in stores. Just wanted to pass along my satisfaction to your company and I will continue to spread the good word on SmoothFitness treadmills.

Thank you,

We recently purchased a Smooth 5.15e Treadmill from you which we duly received.  We are very pleased with our purchase so far.
 There was only one slight problem when the treadmill arrived - the bottle of silicone gel had burst.  Fortunately the spillage was contained within the separte tool/accessories box and didn't affect the treadmill itself.  Apart from a bit of a mess, no harm done.
