Peloton Treadmill Deemed Dangerous to Kids & Pets by U.S. Regulator

Peloton's state-of-the-art treadmill is dangerous for kids and pets, and folks should refrain from using it immediately -- so says a U.S. regulator, who's got video evidence of the perils.

The agency says in light of a recent child death and"dozens" of reported instances of small children and pets getting sucked under the back roller of the conveyer belt -- and getting seriously injured in the process -- they're advising the Tread+ get temporarily unplugged. We must warn you ... this is difficult to watch, but fortunately, the child appears to get himself out of the Peloton's clutches and gets up afterward. CPSC says this is just one example of the danger.

Its $4500 I find that dangerous.

Ppl need to watch their kids and pets. Treadmill isn't a toy.
