Great Machine

by Monte Smith
(Liberty, Utah USA)

We purchased the IronMan treadmill with the TV viewer a year ago and it's really a fine machine. Easy to set incline, speed, etc. and we are looking for another one for our summer cabin.

Ironman Envision

by Greg
(Ardmore, Oklahoma)

My son purchased an Ironman Envision Treadmill last year 2008. After limited use the shaft on the Treadmill Motor broke. I have since found out that Key's Fitness has filed for bancruptcy, this voids all manufacturer's warranty. The Treadmill Dr. Co. has purchased all of Key's Fitness Repair Parts inventory. However the replacement motor is $299.00 without shipping and only has a 30 day warranty instead of the origional lifetime warranty. So this Ironman Envision is going to be used to help stop land erosion, it's going in a ditch.

Good Luck to All Ironman Owners

Ironman / Keys Fitness - Bankrupt and GONE

All warranties are voided the company is bankrupt and assets were sold off. Another company bought the Ironman name but doesn't promise to even service parts for the Keys products. AVOID buying anything built by Keys it is obsolete.

PaceMaster Bankrupt
by: Anonymous

I have owned a PaceMaster Elite Gold for several years but just as parts are starting to wear out the company closes shop and will not support their installed base.

Don't let this happen to you...Don't buy a PaceMaster product.

Treadmill Doctor
by: Anonymous

I ordered a replacement motor from Treadmill Doctor for my Ironman Triad and they sent a motor without the fan and the optical sensor which made it completely worthless...we'll see if they send the correct one.

Update on Keys Fitness/Ironman parts
by: Anonymous

FYI - Time to update on the Keys Fitness/Ironman picture.

Treadmill Doctor is willing to help people seeking repair parts, based on the inventory they were able to pick up. See their site for a more updated answer on this issue.

OWNER LOVES : IRONMAN ENVISION

by Carol
(Boerne, Texas (N.W.San Antonio area))

We bought the Ironman Envision from Costco a year ago and absolutely love it. (HP 3.0, 120VAC, AMPS 13.5, HZ 60).

Retailed about $1,400. and bought it on a special for $900. My husband was about 240 lbs. Now 225.

He does the incline runs. We have had no problems at all. I thought for sure I'd be buying a new machine after his pounding on it (running) for a year, but its still like new. The only down fall is the tv unit.


They tell you (in the manual and by customer service phone call) that you may have to hook it up to a cable box to use.


You absolutely have to get a new box from your cable, dish network, direct tv in order to view the tv. Otherwise the picture is very, very, very fuzzy.


You could unhook your current box in one room and run a long cable to this tv and reconnect it to your main tv when you are finished.


I was told by Dish Network that I could "T" my main box to this treadmill and leave it connected, but I would loose quality on my main tv.


If I were to do it again I would not get it with the tv. Needless to say we do not use the tv. But we absolutely love the Ironman Envision for it's intended use...a treadmill.

Envision worked out well
by: OC Treadmill lifer

I put over 1300 miles on mine before I broke the deck (second deck I've broken. I'm only 230 lbs, but I put a lot of mileage on them).

The TV monitor and a good price from Costco convinced me to buy it.


For the TV monitor, I just went down to Radio Shack and bought a little antenna type kit.

One part plugged into the cable box in a room near the garage where the treadmill is, the other part plugged into the treadmill TV outlets. It's very easy, should work for satellite receivers as well.

So far, it's worked great, I watch TV and listen to my music, it keeps me motivated.

Now I'm off to buy a deck from the treadmill doctor.

Ironman M3 Treadmill

I would completely love this treadmill except for one recurring problem:
I'll be walking at a good 4.0 clip, my heart rate up and steady, and without warning, having touched nothing, the belt stops - DEAD stops. It's awful. You have to shut the machine down in order to get it to start up again which takes a minute. The shock of the sudden stop is irritating enough but having my heart rate suddenly drop is even more unpleasant. I've had this happen several times in an hour, while other times on the treadmill there is no problem. I don't know why it does this. The emergency peg is in place, but maybe there is something loose connected to the peg. All I can say is, it's terribly disconcerting to be enjoying a vigorous walk or run one second, only to be at a dead stop the next second. If you're thinking to buy a treadmill you might want to find out how sensitive the emergency peg is and if you could end up with the same problem that I'm having.

Sudden stops
by: Anonymous

I have the same problem as one of the other people who posted here. My treadmill will suddenly stop - typically though, it only stops when I've touched something... usually the handle. There will be a small little shock from my fingertip as I touch the handle, and then it will come to a dead stop, as if I've pulled the emergency cord. It doesn't happen every time I touch the handle, but 2-4 times during a 1 hour workout. The treadmill is otherwise great, but this problem is causing me to look around for another machine.... not another Ironman.
