The series earns great customer reviews and normally has a $2,199 to $2,999 price range. Now selling for just $2,399, the Precor Energy Series TRM 211 is very competitively priced for a treadmill of its quality. Just like health club treadmills it has a welded steel frame, a commercial motor and a maintenance-free belt. Its 57″ x 20″ track provides ample room to run, plus it offers training boosts with its maximum 15% power incline. Six preset programs help trainees exercise for efficient cardio health and weight management. Read on for pros, cons and other Precor treadmills in its series.
