Runner's World reviews treadmills approximately every 3 years. In the most recent treadmill ratings (2000, 2003, 2006), Smooth ranked in the top ten. "The Swing Arm Shock absorption system disperses impact onto the deck rather than your joints, creating an ideal surface for older runners or those suffering back pain."

Prevention wrote of the Smooth 7.1HR Pro Treadmill:

"Power folding feature—you flick a switch, and it folds itself....You don’t have to lift a finger to pack this one away. A quiet machine with huge display numbers."

Consumer Guide stated, "Smooth Fitness is still somewhat of a newcomer to the home market, but few manufacturers pack as much innovation into this price range as they do."

"Unlike manual treadmills that can be very heavy to lift, the Smooth 7.1 folds automatically with push of a button. Yet it's a heavy 260 lbs., giving this folding treadmill an extremely solid feel." 

—Consumer Guide by HowStuffWorks.com

A leading consumer reporting publication noted that the power folding feature of the Smooth Fitness 7.1HR Pro treadmill was especially beneficial to those with limited lifting strength. For this reason, the editors ranked the 7.1HR Pro as one of the top 5 folding treadmills for 2007. The same consumer reporting publication included two Smooth Fitness treadmills among the top 12 in its 2006 review.

"From Prevention Magazine to Consumer Guide to our own customers, everyone agrees the Smooth 6.25 folding treadmill offers true value. Proven performance, innovation and power combine to make one of the most popular running treadmills available."
