Overview
Weslo (owned by Icon Fitness) currently produces four treadmills: the Cadence C22, Cadence 340 CS, Cadence 255DR, and Cadence C78. Prices range from $ 199 to $ 699 and uses cover walking, jogging, and running.
Weslo Cadence C22
The Cadence C22 is Weslo’s entryway just for walking. The main advantage of the Cadence C22 is its cost, at $ 199 it’s hard to go too wrong. The main drawbacks are that the track is not cushioned and the user has to adjust the lean angle manually. Not having a padded track means it will be harder on the user’s back and joints. Adjusting the incline by hand means that the user will have to get off the treadmill to change the incline.
Weslo Cadence 340 CS
The Cadence 340 CS is a step above the Cadence C22 and will allow the user to jog on the treadmill. The engine is significantly larger than in the C22 (2.0 hp vs 1.0 hp) and the track is damped. These features will allow the user to jog. The treadmill is not suitable for running as the length of the track is a bit shorter than I would like, at 45 “it is still significantly shorter than many treadmill tracks on the market.
Weslo Cadence 255DR
The Cadence 255DR is another step forward in features and cost. The price is $ 699, compared to $ 399 for the Cadence 340 CS. The great feature you get for that price is that the treadmill has an electric incline. Therefore, the user can adjust the incline while exercising, without getting off the treadmill. The only negative about this treadmill is that the track is still a bit short (still 45 “), so it is not suitable for running.
Weslo Cadence C78
The Cadence C78 is the best treadmill Weslo sells. At $ 699 it costs the same as the Cadence 255DR, but has a larger engine (2.75 hp vs. 2.0 hp) and a longer track (54 “vs. 45”). It also has the power incline and a heart rate monitor (which the Cadence 255DR also has).
Summary
Weslo has a treadmill aimed at the top three types of treadmill users. If you’re walking you should just look at the Cadence C22, if you’re going to walk and jog you’ll want to look at the Cadence 340 CS, and if you’re serious about running the Cadence C78 is the model for you to look at.
