Treadmill

[Becker]

I'm looking to buy a good quality treadmill. Where would they have the best selection in Pattaya?

[tolsti]

Sukhumvit Rd, on the opposite side from and a bit further down from the Pattaya Bangkok Hospital. Nearly opposit the top of Soi Photisarn.

Also display etc in Big C extra car park far end not sure of quality or price but might be worth a look.

I really can recommend X-trend Pattaya, run by a Swiss/Thai couple, very good quality (2 years warranty and every 3 month scheduled free service), great consultancy and after sales service, I bought 3 machines 2.5 years ago and all still top. not cheap though (treadmill about 60K) but you get what you pay for. They sell 2nd hand machines as well.

 

I would not trust the machines at Bic C, Tesco, also the Marathon (shop opposite Bangkok Pattaya Hospital) stuff haven't impressed me once I was checking the market......and finally settled for X trend

 

There is even one more upscale shop on Sukhumvit near Chayaprueck 1 corner http://www.searasports.com/contact/thailand/pattaya/

I recommend a gym. See if your motivated enough to use one daily for 3 months before wasting your $$$

Thank you for the feedback.

 

I was wondering about Xtrend, as they must be Chinese machines.

 

But it seems that Chinese have greatly improved as I saw many different brands in many different gyms around Thailand.

 

What else have you checked in case I would like to see different brands sold for an elyptical machine ?

 

 

Also, can you tell me if the location is correct ? JOMTIEN SOI 5 ? near immigration ?

Nobody serious would buy any supermarket machines, they are not made for heavy daily use.

location is Soi17 Theprasit behind Rompo Market/View Talay2 and another store at the bypass Pattaya side between Soi 87 and Kao Thalo, the machines are from Taiwan but under Swiss supervision.

I have no idea about these things other than what they look like but I have seen a few in a shop on the corner of the slip road onto Pattaya Tai at the Bahtbus start point (Sukumvit end)....Baht buses wait to join the queue t'other side of the slip road...
