A good treadmill is one of the best things you can have at home, especially with Melbourne weather. But a quality machine costs thousands upfront, and that is where most people stall. Rent to buy lets you spread the cost over 6 to 36 months, with no interest and no deposit, and the treadmill is yours at the end.
Here’s how it works at Prime Fitness, what it costs, and when it makes more sense than hiring or buying outright.
How Rent to Buy Works
- Choose your treadmill. Browse our rent to buy treadmills. Each one has its own page with full specifications and weekly prices.
- Pick your plan length. Anywhere from 6 to 36 months. A longer plan means a lower weekly payment.
- Apply. Email us or call 0489 954 167 and we’ll send you the next steps. Approval is subject to a credit check.
- We deliver and install it. Delivery and installation across Melbourne metro and Geelong are included in the price, so there’s nothing to assemble.
- Make your repayments. Pay fortnightly or monthly. When the plan finishes, the treadmill is yours.
What Does It Cost?
Our rent to buy treadmills start from $18 a week over 36 months for the Bodyworx JTX200BM. At the top of the range, the Spirit SXT485ENT with its 10.1 inch touchscreen is $39 a week.
Every weekly price on our site already includes the plan fees, delivery and installation. There’s no interest, and no extra charge added at the end.
If you’d rather finish sooner, the 12-month price is shown on each treadmill’s page too. You pay more each week, but you own the treadmill in a year.
Rent to Buy vs Hire vs Buying Outright
Hire is best when you only need a treadmill for a while, such as injury rehab, a training block, or trying out home training before you commit. You can return it when you’re done. See our guide to treadmill hire in Melbourne.
Rent to buy is best when you know you want a treadmill long term but don’t want to pay for it all at once. You get a new machine now and own it at the end of the plan.
Buying outright is cheapest overall if you have the cash ready. Each rent to buy page links to the outright price for that model.
Want a Home Gym Too?
Every treadmill can be bundled with a Bodyworx home gym on one plan, with both delivered and installed together. Because you pay one set of plan fees instead of two, a bundle works out cheaper each week than two separate plans. See all our home gym and treadmill packages.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a deposit?
No. Your first repayment is the first thing you pay.
Is there any interest?
No. The plans are interest-free, and the weekly prices we show already include the plan fees.
Where do you deliver?
Melbourne metro and Geelong, with delivery and installation included.
Which treadmill should I choose?
It depends on whether you mostly walk, jog or run, how much space you have, and whether you want a touchscreen. You can compare every model’s specs on our rent to buy treadmills page, or call us on 0489 954 167 and we’ll help you pick.
