I like the meme that says - Car owner's manuals used to tell you how to adjust the valves, now they have to warn you not to drink the contents of the battery.

While I definitely agree that they definitely should recall them and do a redesign to make them much safer, I don't understand why some parents do not see that any treadmills and exercise equipment in general can be dangerous to children.  They keep showing that one particular clip of the 2 little kids  - one is on the treadmill and one is on the floor at the base of it and then gets stuck underneath.  Where is a parent while this is going on?  Why would you just leave the child or children to be unsupervised around these things?

My husband said they would have to get off their phones first.

Hopefully they will stop showing those TV commercials.

I just saw a Peloton commercial for their bikes.

 

The bike is not a treadmill.

And as of this evening still being advertised on TV.  Wondering when that will stop or if it will be stopped.
