Once I knew I'd be using the treadmill long-term, I bought a Nordic Track A2350 treadmill online, along with a 4-year extended warranty (added to the year that's already included). There is little chance the treadmill will actually last through 5 years of 5-8h daily usage, so I expect to get my value out of the extended warranty. The whole thing cost about $950 delivered. Far less than a treadmill that's actually built to tolerate this sort of long-term usage.
