The equipment of a treadmill includes, among other things, motor output, size and quality of running surface.These provide a more comfortable motion and more safety for higher speeds respectively taller runners. A pc with many training programs offers more diversion while exercising. Extras like hot keys, folding mechanism, fan, and transport wheels make your workout much more comfortable.
Besides the frame construction, own weight and siize of standing surface guarantee a great stability. The more stable a treadmill is, the higher is the maximum weight load capacity and the more durable becomes the machine. Treadmills of high stability stand much safer for intensive training sessions. Furthermore, big rollers reduce wear and tear of the whole drive system.
Motor output, type of running mat, shock absorbers, and frame construction contribute to the running smoothness. An equipment of good running smoothness hardly causes any background noises and you can listen to music or watch tv while exercising.
Thickness of running mat and number as well as quality of shock absorbers are important for shock absorption features of a treadmill. A good absorption is joint-gentle and prevents early signs of tiredness.
Good product. Good value for money balance. High stability even on high speed. Screen much quality than other brands.
Overall strongly advice this model.
After extended market research, I bought Horizon Treadmill Adventure 7. Horizon is known to offer a turn-key product (they make everything themselves), and their confidence is proved by their lifetime motor guarantee. Adventure 7 strikes the perfect balance of value for money, as it has a strong motor and can reach speeds and inclines of much more expensive treadmills. The assembly was piece of cake, the construction of all parts is solid, the sound is OK (you can easily listen to music/movie), the included programs are more than enough, and the connectivity to the ViewFit app is a nice addition (you can see your workouts on your mobile, set goals etc.). I highly recommend Horizon Adventure 7 and I would buy it again, hands down!

The treadmill is a "classic" fitness machine and is often used for improving fitness. Fat burning is stimulated as well and the leg and back muscles are strengthened. Many sportsmen experience jogging on a treadmill as relaxing diversion from the daily stress. Independent of weather and time, you can do sports and do something good for your body. Due to the precise control of the pace, you adapt the machine to running styles like going, walking, and jogging - depending upon at which intensity you wish to exercise.
Incline of many treadmills is adjustable and thus ascents are simulated and different muscle groups are precisely trained.
I want to buy a treadmill. Which machine is the appropriate one for me?
Find information about differences between different treadmills in our treadmill guide:
Motor (HP and maximum speed):
When you buy a treadmill, choose a machine from the speed so that enough range remains towards the pre-set maximum speed. Hence, you can increase your performance without permanently using the machine at full speed. Motors with digital drive technology work more precisely and smoother due to the digital signal processing that common motors; a digital drive motor is more silent and more durable.
Size of the running surface:
Training comfort and step safety increase with a bigger running surface. The quicker the speedon the treadmill, the stronger gets the speed and incline change - and the taller the user (and its stride length), the bigger should be the running surface of the treadmill.
Absorption:
Users with back and knee problems should buy a treadmill with a very good absorption. Most of our treadmills are very well absorbed like models of Life Fitness, Taurus Fitness, cardiostrong, Vision Fitness, and Horizon Fitness. Treadmills of Tunturi, Bremshey, Kettler, and U.N.O. are well absorbed; Daum, Bremshey, and Reebok treadmills are satisfactory to sufficient.
Electronic/manual incline adjustment:
Starter models mostly have just a manual incline adjustment. For changing, the training needs to be stoped on the treadmill and the incline angle needs to be manually changed. If the machine is equiped with an electronic incline adjustment, the incline can be comfortably changed at the touch of a button while exercising. Your training gets more versatile and more flexible.
Training programs:
Training programs provide diversion while exercising and increase motivation.
You can even save your own training program for some models and save your personal running track.
Pulse control/pulse controlled training programs:
Select from a chart the appropriate pulse value for models with pulse control by means of age, gender, and desired training target (increase in stamina, fat burning, etc.). Independent of the model, the treadmill controls speed and/or incline angle so that you are always in the pre-set heart rate. Hence, you can train optimized and healthy.
foldable/not foldable:
The running surface of foldable treadmills can be easily folded upwards. If you have small space in a fitness room, you should buy such a treadmill, so that you can store it save-efficiently after the workout.
Workmanship:
Treadmills of Life Fitness, Taurus Fitness, Circle Fitness, and Vision Fitness are of excellent workmanship; cardiostrong, Horizon-Fitness, Kettler, Tunturi are well.
Noise:
Due to differnt motor types and performances, the noise changes as well: Life Fitness, Taurus Fitness, Taurus, cardiostrong, and Vision Fitness are very silent; Horizon Fitness, UNO, Daum, and Kettler show a silent to middle noise emission; Bremshey and Reebok are a bit louder.
