After extensive research and comparing several curved treadmills—including the AssaultRunner Pro—I chose the Tru Grit Runner Elite, and I'm extremely happy with my decision.
The treadmill arrived well packaged on a pallet and in perfect condition. The build quality exceeded my expectations. It feels like a true commercial-grade machine with a smooth belt, solid construction, and excellent stability. Assembly was straightforward and took less than 30 minutes once the base was in place.
The only challenge was moving the base upstairs to my home gym. It is extremely heavy, so if you're installing it on a second floor, plan ahead and have extra help. Once positioned, the rest of the assembly was simple.
I also want to recognize Tru Grit's customer support. During shipping, I became concerned because the Shop app continued to display "Waiting for details" even after receiving a shipping confirmation. After contacting their support team, they responded quickly with the freight carrier information, tracking link, and delivery details. Everything ultimately arrived exactly as promised.
My only suggestion would be to include the freight carrier name and direct tracking link in the original shipping confirmation email. That small improvement would eliminate unnecessary concern for customers purchasing a premium product.
Overall, I'm very impressed with both the product and the value. I purchased the Runner Elite during a promotion, and after comparing it with other commercial curved treadmills, I believe it offers exceptional quality for the price. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a premium curved treadmill for walking, running, interval training, or Zone 2 cardio.
