If you go to the wal mart site online you can see some customer reviews on this there people that are almost 300lbs and theirs is doing fine! I get mine today so we will see how it goes :)

------------------

This is a Walmart "exclusive" made by Icon Health & Fitness. It's an inexpensive, entry-level unit.

It is NOT sturdy enough for running and definitely not running by anyone approaching 300lbs.

Additionally it has only a 2.5 HP motor giving just enough power for walking or some very light jogging. I'll politely suggest that most "bigger people" aren't looking for a treadmill to support "running". The unit maxes out at 10mph - a good jogging speed. If you are a runner/training, this is not the right model for you. If you are looking for light/medium cardio, this is a good "starter unit."

If you want something that will last for more than a couple years of use, or want to use it for running, you need a higher-end treadmill, which start at about $1,000.
