Run for it!

Advantages: Great grip, quiet,
Disadvantages: Very expensive

If your into running, the Horizon Elite treadmill is ideal. i am into running due to my job as well as a favourite hobby, and this treadmill supports all of my needs no matter what sort of training im currently doing. I do uphill running alot, or hill sprints as it is great for my CV fitness, this treadmill fully supports a high weight and what ever speed, so no thumping on the roller which can get pretty annoying. It is also ideal for people who ...
...pregnant girlfriend uses it for a gentle uphill walk everyday. The canvas is very supportive and its almost impossibe to slip whilst running, so all together the machine is very safe. I would recommend this to anybody as its ideal for any type of walking or running, the price is high but in my opinion if your into running its worth any penny. ...

Review of Horizon Elite 507 Treadmill

Pro-Fitness Value Treadmill

Advantages: Solid, cheap, reliable, sturdy, good range of settings
Disadvantages: It's huge - but they all are! Can't make your own set programs

I bought this treadmill because I wanted to learn to run - obviously! I suppose that before really going into the details on what this machine is like, I should probably tell you about my own personal fitness levels beforehand. First of all, I am not overweight and so was not buying it for weight reasons - my BMI is actually right on the border between underweight and ideal. I'm not a stranger to exercise and am a gymnastics and horse riding teacher ...
...running. My original plan was to run outside, but it was cold and it was embarassing, plus I had absolutely no idea how far or how fast I was running. Next step was to join the gym, but by the time I had walked to the gym I generally concluded that I had gone enough distance that there was no longer any point, and had to really force myself to actually go! My next step was to take a look at treadmills. In general it seemed like treadmills cost thousands ...

Review of Pro-Fitness Value Treadmill

Best Kept Treadmill Secret, the Weslo M5!

Advantages: Tidy and compact, easy to use, feels sturdy and you can run upto 10 miles an hour!
Disadvantages: Little bit noisy, it is a bit of a pain to have to change the incline manually

Weslo M5 Treadmill In my Opinion a Good Quality and Great Value basic running machine I was looking for a cheap piece of home fitness equipment, I decided on a treadmill but needed something to fit my budget and my expectations in terms of quality and durability. My research led me to the Weslo M5 - made by Icon in the States who have a good reputation in the fitness industry for quality which was a an important factor for me in terms of getting ...
...put this down to the Weslo M5! Do shop around for a good deal – the rrp on this machine seems to be £399 but I found the best deal online on a refurbished model for £169.99 with free delivery and 6mths parts and labour warranty – which is a pretty fantastic deal if you ask me. I did go checkout the model at the showroom before I bought it – I also checked out what refurbished means so dont be put off by the term – a refurbished machine is a basically ...

Review of Weslo M5 Folding Treadmill

Poor customer service

Advantages: Good if you want to throw money away
Disadvantages: Very expensive when it goes wrong because the warranties aren't worth anything

Stay well clear. I have had one for 18 months and initially thought it was fantastic. However, After only light use by my sub 9 stone wife there has been a catastrophic failure of the frame disabling the incline facility. It has failed where the frame attaches to the incline motor and cannot be replaced. I don't even think it can be repaired. I am very disapointed both with the failure and with the reponse from the UK distributor!! Basically they ...
...know, I will be taking legal action but they have dismissed their responsibility on a technicality. They have advised me to get it welded or asked whether I wanted to buy a refurbished item ?????. I now have a very expensive, broken running machine. £1000 well spent!!! A very shoddy way to treat customers. ...

Review of Horizon Paragon III Treadmill

i -run...........your better off with an i-pod :

Advantages: Cheap, easy to store, basic functionality
Disadvantages: Not sturdy, too basic, not quick enough!

...write a review about the Reebok I Run +, mainly because I wanted to highlight the difference between this runner compared to the more expensive models out there. The last runner I reviewed was the Horizon Elite 507 which came in at a touch over £1000. This is an expensive treadmill, but it came with everything you need from a running machine. The Reebok I Run + is considerably cheaper, but as the old saying goes, “You get what you pay for”, in this ...
...are paying for it. Clearly Reebok understand that on any runner, this is the most important bit. The key word here is “continuous motor”. This basically means two things. One the motor will not short out after continual use (many peak motors will cut out as they have an inbuilt thermostat to prevent overheating), you will comfortably get two hours of continual training out of the motor (Important if you‘re training for marathons). Secondly continuous ...
