Bowflex Series 7 Treadmill Reviews Based on the large number of reviews we found for the Bowflex Series 7 Treadmill it appears it is one of the most popular treadmills. Over 180 people who own the machine gave it a 4 or 5 out of 5 star rating. The assembly is pretty easy and should take less than an hour. Reviewers all commented on how solid and sturdy the machine feels and some even mentioned how its a gym quality machine. The automatic lowering of the running platform is a highly praised feature as well as how easy it is to fold up. We did find a fair amount of negative reviews for the Bowflex Series 7 Treadmill such as it making strange noises and the fan being completely useless but what really concerns us is the problem with the electrical system. Multiple owners stated how the treadmill worked great for awhile and then all of a sudden stopped working and showed an error code on the display. The solution to fix it after talking with Bowflex was to replace the motherboard. They are routinely out of stock on this part and many people had to wait 6 to 8 months before they could get the part to fix the treadmill. Although there are a lot of very positive reviews for the Bowflex Series 7 treadmill and it seems to be a great piece of exercise equipment when it's working properly the negatives can not be ignored. With so many people having problems with the electrical system and having to wait months for it to get repaired we can't recommend this as a good buy. You may want to take a chance and see if you get one of the good ones but you are probably better to pick a different treadmill than the Bowflex Series 7.
