I have a Tunturi T30 and very Happy with it, quiet and very strong motor.

I would highly recommend this site. I purchased a model from them four years ago and it's still running strong today. Very heavy duty, gym quality treadmills and most of the machines are rated for heavier people as noted in each of the descriptions. I had one failure in the upright locking mechanism (my son actually broke it) and had a no hassle free repair performed within 3 days with the included warranty.

Agree with this suggestion. Back when I was 420+ pounds the treadmill I had was just a killer on the joints. Picked up an elliptical - no more pain and faster workouts.

Another vote for an elliptical

Bang for your buck nordic track makes a decent one. I forget the specific model. I can find out if your interested.

All out get a Precor or Life Fitness.
