With all the e machines I have used both here and in the States...I get numb feet on them all...but you just got on your tip toes and move your feet around. It is a strange feeling but totally bearable.

I am also looking into buying one.

I have a treadmill - a big powerful one with digital screen, programs etc. I bought it from Lifestyle - I think thats it...a store in Ebay. They are new and price all their equipment wayyyyy below retail and everywhere else.

I do recommend them. The delivery was fast and the product is excellent quality. I will most certainly buy my e machine there when I am ready.

All the best with your decision...
