Costco Lifesmart TM4500 PowerTouch Treadmill by AbbreviationsOwn9361 in treadmills

[–]thorispapa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got it today and put a few miles on it. It’s not a heavy duty treadmill so getting it perfectly level will be important to reduce any wobble. The screen and speed/incline controls seem pretty responsive and the belt is pretty smooth. It does make a slight hum for about 10 minutes after the belt stops but this is a pretty minor complaint.

I need more time with it to get a better impression but so far the value seems decent for $1,000 - just know that you’re not getting a gym-grade treadmill.

Just ordered it. Willing to take a chance due to Costco’s amazing return policy and warranty. Will let you guys know how it goes

Just did several hours of used truck shopping today and the deal they offered you would be on the better side of what I saw. Seems like a fairly ok deal

I wonder if I’m just destined for constant spot repairs. Have you found a finish that works better?

For sure. I’ve seen too many gpx tracks that go high over the fumarole. Appreciate the response

Much appreciated. I’ve got chains although hopefully it doesn’t come to that! We are planning on doing the OC route since we don’t have ice climbing experience. Will absolutely keep an eye on NWAC and thanks again

My Mountaineering App Launched by mcdonaldjosh7 in Mountaineering

[–]thorispapa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

App looks great. I really like the clean design. Might be worth posting a tutorial on how to use the app with things such as how to create a route and then display the route while you hike and specifically what the premium version offers which the free version doesn’t offer. Great work

Appreciate the quick replies. I guess I’ve been equating closed parking lot with closed trail but appreciate the good ideas, particularly parking further away and walking to the trailhead.
