DKN RoadRunner Treadmill

We purchased this machine to get back into shape and are really happy with it. Well chuffed. The delivery crew were really helpful and while it took a while to put it together it's actually straight forward and if I were to do it again I probably wouldn't even need the manual. As for the machine itself it's really well built. It has programmes that my wife uses, while I use the manual feature. We were really surprised at how quiet and smooth it is. Real quality kit. Would recommend to anyone.

We purchased this running machine in October last year and my daughter and wife are using the treadmill everyday. Very pleased with it. Straight forward to use and definitely fulfilled the write up. Easy to build too!

I have had the DKN roadrunner treadmill for 3 weeks and i absolutely love it. It is great value for money and ideal for the home. I will definately shop at sweatband again.

The Roadrunner feels very solid and is comfortable to walk on. It has a wide range of programmes which I haven't tried as they are all for runners and I only want to walk. It has a heart rate controlled programme which seems to work well though the heart rate doesn't agree with my Pulsar strap & watch. The treamill is extremely heavy so you won't be moving it in a hurry so need a permanent home for it. Unfortunately, the manual is poor, the English reads as though it was translated by Babelfish and gives no explanation of some of the buttons on the console. You can only access the programmes by scrolling through the list by repeatedly pressing the select key; the manual and the HRC programmes come after the 22 set programmes so you need to press the button 25 times each time you want to use the HRC programme. Despite these irritations I am pleased with the Roadrunner and would recommend if you want a solid, quiet machine with no frills and have the space!

The roadrunner is a powerful machine, with a top speed of 20kph a good sized running track and over 22 programmes and 2 useful manual programmes. It also has an ipod / mp3 speaker connection and inbuilt speakers which are very useful. The lcd is good and its quite a silent machine. If I had to be hypercritical I wasn't sure if the kph matches actual running speed and the distance only has a single digit decimal point. Its also a big unit and extremely heavy- so know you have space and where to put it as you won't be moving it very easily. It has a website rockrunroll.com with extra programmes, but the language is in italian, although you'd think they will convert. It also doesn't have a warm down function. That's being hypercritical though it's a very good machine and have used it everyday.
