Editor’s Note: |
The unit is simply too complex for what it does and we would expect frequent repairs, especially once these get some age on them. |

Review Comments: |
The same comments from the TC1000 would apply to this one as well. It has a better electronics package than the TC1000 and if you are going to waste around $1500 or your hard-earned money on one of these, you might as well waste another $300 and get decent electronics. |

Whether you're just starting to get in shape or are a seasoned athlete, Bowflex's Treadclimber TC3000 Cardio Machine is a home fitness machine that offers an array of electronics and features to push your workout to the next level. Similar in function to a treadmill, this low-impact machine is engineered to burn fat without pounding your joints. It has unique dual treadles (rather than a single belt area surface) that rise up to cushion each step. This design eliminates the jarring impact of hard, flat surfaces and reduces the joint and muscle strain that can be part of other workout machines.
It has twelve intensity settings to tailor your workout specifically to your fitness and comfort level while six electronic functions allow you to track your speed, time, distance, calories burned, calories per minute, and total steps taken during your workout. Five LCD readout windows allow you to see all vital workout stats easily. Large footboards alongside the tread belts make starting or stopping exercise safe and easy. The speed of the TC3000 adjusts from 0.7 to 4.0 miles per hour for a casual stroll to serious power walking.
Strengths:
Really neat and trendy, and the treadclimber will get you results!
Weakness:
The Hydraulic shocks are not great and most would prefer to use treadmill at incline due to service issues and difficulty using.
