Transformer treadmills represent a whole new category of folding treadmills and the Osprey is “Best-in-Class” for 2012. Only Yowza has amazing space-saving treadmills that through our ingenious design can morph into powerful, non-folding style running machines that can take a pounding!
Osprey is no bare-bones entry-level treadmill! This machine can handle heavy-duty running or walking and does NOT feel like a folding treadmill at all. Unlike other “hinged” folding treadmills, the Osprey looks and feels as good as any treadmill you have ever used. Runners will love the one-touch speed and incline buttons as well as the progressive shock absorption deck that delivers just the right amount of flex based on your speed and bodyweight.

can't wait to get this treadmill and try it. I'm writing this review based on the research that I have done while looking at both folding treadmills (which until now I had not liked) and non-folding treadmills (which were too expensive and large). This looks like the perfect solution but I'll get back with an update to this review once I run on the machine a few times. Prior to my purchase I had tested out the Sole and Livestrong folding treadmills and I felt that they were junk compared to the ones I was used to running on in the gym. Both Sole and Livestrong have that outside frame with the hinge jane it just shakes and rattles when I run. I also looked at the Landice and Life Fitness non-folding treadmills and those are very nice but seem to be overpriced compared to this Yowza treadmill.
