Buying Gold’s Gym Treadmills vs. Other Icon Fitness Products

Gold's Gym Treadmill are becoming very popular since they are sold at Wal-Mart.  I previously did not have any review on their models and was not familar with them.  After some initial research it was obvious that this was another Icon Fitness Brand.  Their other brands include NordicTrack, ProForm, Weslo, Image, Reebok, Epic, and the list goes on.   And what you find is that many of the models from the different brands are very similar.  In fact, they are all constructed at the Icon plant in Logan, UT. 

Gold's Gym is an exclusive brand for Wal-Mart.  However, their treadmills are very similar, if  not exactly the same, as ProForm and Weslo models.  So should you buy a Gold's Gym treadmill or the comparable model from another Icon Fitness brand.
