The Smooth 6.75 Treadmill has just come out into the market and is the latest offering from the hugely successful Smooth Fitness brand. The 6.75 is built from the platform of the Smooth 6.45M. It has almost the exact same features as his older brother, with some minor differences on the max speed, increased to 12 mph, more choices on the programs, built in controls in the hand rails and a better LCD display.
But the question is, should this be worth the difference in the price tag?

Fun and easy to use, it’s the new Smooth 6.75
One thing that may compel you to buy one of the new Smooth 6.75 treadmills is the fact that it is filled up with features that will make your workout sessions fun and the usage of the treadmill easy.
Let us start with the 2 highlights of the Smooth 6.75: the dual stage soft drop folding system and the deluxe sound system. The dual stage soft drop folding system is gas-shock assisted, you can easily tilt the deck into position after using it and then fold it away under the bed or inside a closet, to lower it back there is a foot operated lever that when pressed will automatically lower the deck ready to be used.
The deluxe sound system is useful and fun to have in a treadmill, especially if you are one of those that easily discourages during training and finds it boring after a few weeks. Listening to music can be relaxing, invigorating and make you go the extra mile without noticing it. Connect an iPod, MP3 player or any other audio devices that you may have to the Smooth 6.75 and have fun.
One difference from the Smooth 6.45 to the new 6.75 is the dual color LCD display. The 6.45 had a LED console with all the important info displayed for you to be updated on your workout. The 6.75 has a beautiful oversized LCD display that shows the same important info. If you are into gadgets and this sort of things, then go for the 6.75.
The other difference, that can make all the difference for some users, is the fact that the 6.75 has all incline and speed controls built in the hand rails. It may not seem like a big difference, but it makes it easy to change any of the settings of the workout without stopping or need to speed up to get to the console.
Overall there are not significant changes from the Smooth 6.45 to the Smooth 6.75. The first is priced at $1549 and the latter has a price tag of $1799. You can look over the features of both and see if the difference is really worth it. In any case this is a great and excellent treadmill that keeps up with the tradition of excellence from Smooth.

Cons:
- Too many bells and whistles

With any of these treadmills you won’t regret your choice.
