Treadmill decision

[SpongeCola]

I am looking to get a new treadmill so I have something else to do aside from biking when the weather is not good out there. But I'm having a hard time deciding on which one to go with.

I had a Schwinn 840 treadmill and have really loved it, but it was a hand me down and am in need of an upgrade!
I thought I wanted to stick with Schwinn because it's done good the past couple years but have heard really good things about LifeSpan TR 1200i as well...

I'm currently deciding between the Schwinn or the LifeSpan TR 1200i (here: http://www.sportsgearlab.com/best-treadmill-for-home/)

They both seem to have good reviews and are right within my price range, but I want to make sure I make the right decision!

Does anyone have either one of these and can give me some feedback?! Or have a better model you'd suggest?
Thanks for any help everyone!

10 years ago we bought a Sole for $2000.  It has been very reliable and "saved" us on many a terrible weather day ( we live in the mountains of WA state).  Be sure to spend enough, or you're buying a headache. You don't want to get a cheapo that requires constant maintenance and repairs. We did a lot of research and are glad we did.
