 I love this machine!!! Mar 19, 2010
I love this tread climber. I am a 58 yr. old man who had knee surgery a few years ago. I am in pretty good shape, but expect to get into very good shape using this Treadclimber. I get a great cardio workout. I keep my heart rate up and produce sweat for 30 min., yet I don't feel any muscle soreness or any joint pain. I feel strong, flexible and energized just 10 min. after my work out. I assembled it by myself in about 2 hrs. It was well worth the time!

 Buyer Beware... Jan 13, 2010
I've had this Machine for about 2 yrs. now, My Wife and I use it on an avg.of 1hr sessions 3x weekly. The Machine worked as advertise however, my biggest gripe is the maintenance aspect of it. After about a year of regularly schedule use of our Treadclimber I was forced to buy parts for it. Now I don't mind doing routine mantenance in order to keep things running @ a 100%, but this thing is rediculous. I've purchased Hydraulics for our Treadclimber twice sense I had the darn thing. Mind you I have just made my 2nd year anniversary from purchase date and as I said earlier My Wife and I average a 1hr workout 3x a week. My current Height is 5:9 and my Weight is 205 lbs w/ muscle and my wife is 5:0 ft. and 50 lbs lighter than I am. So we are well within standards for use of the Machine. Now with that said I have spent approx. $250.00 and X amount hours repairing it. All of the new parts have been properly installed and I am having the darnest time reseting the Hydraulics to work with my actual weight. I have come to the conclusion that these parts aren't the same as the Factory one's, so I am constantly setting the dials ea. time I use it. This makes for a very un-happy Consumer. I haven't had this many problems w/ a $350.00 Treadmill from Walmart that lasted a year longer than this Treadclimber without the need for repairs. I can't recommend this product for those who crunch time to try and fit in a workout. There are way to many distractions with this product that involves repairs, Just the effort to workout should be enough. I now use this $2300.00 Treadclimber as an after thought. My Wife and I enjoy the Wii Active workout in place of this thing and we only spent $300.00 total for it.

Great Workout Dec 05, 2009
I was surprised that the TC3000 is actually a tread climber, tread mill and a stepper! I had not read that in the material provided in the brief description. In fact, the combination of the three gives a terrific workout even for someone who has not stepped on a machine in a long time. After two weeks my knees and feet don't hurt as much and I am starting to see results. Combined with a good diet and other strengthening exercises, this is the ONE workout that works. I love it!

Beware! Expensive Piece of Junk May 19, 2009
Thankfuly, we bought this machine through Amazon, and they have given us wonderful customer service so we're not out nearly 2 grand!
This machine does not work properly. We were never able to make the treadles go up and down more that a few inches. Regardless of the setting and regardless of the size of the person using it. Sent the first one back - received the 2nd and it worked exactly the same!!
Unfortunately for Bowflex, they provide you with an instructional DVD. Unfortunate, in that it is obvious that the machine sitting in your home does not work like the one on the DVD. Not even close!!
Please do not waste your money! We called Bowflex to get some customer support (if that's what you want to call it) and really, I think they're aware that this is a cheap product. If even 1/2 the people that order this peice of junk keep it, Bowflex still makes a fortune!
Not only does it not work, but it makes a tremendous amount of noise....not working. Buyer beware!!
