"Good beginner treadmill"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Really happy with this treadmill. Small, compact and does the trick. Not suitable for my runner husband but great for a brisk walker like myself.

"OK small treadmill"
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

A few things to know – the Alan keys in the set up kit do not have a short length, they're elbow angles, meaning it will be frustrating when you need a short length (and you do need a short length). The STOP function is far too abrupt, avoid injury, manually lower the speed all the way down to the lowest speed and then press stop. The machine has a USB and music input – but has no shelf for your devices just two small cup holders – they are not large enough for a regular sized iPhone with case on to fit into. But the treadmill goes and feels sturdy and runs at a nice jogging speed.

"Great Treadmill; for venue and walking"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This treadmill is perfect for our daily excercise needs It arrived 90% assembled, just a few boltss and your away. It was annoying that no luck was available as the freight added another $60 plus to the cost. The treadmill is well built, comfortable to walk on and hasgood information screen read out. The track is made of a nice material and the overall feel of the treadmill is solid with good performance. The only negatives are The speaker RCA socket is unreliable, sometimes connecting most times not. I got round this by using a Bluetooth speaker which is better sound anyway and works every time. I was never going to run on this treadmill but would think that would be risky at best as the platform is adequate for walking but definitely not for running. The biggest annoyance is there's no memory to the display. If you accidentally stop the machine you lose all your exercise record for that session. If I was buying again I would definitely look for this feature Overall I'm very happy with the purchase and would recommend this treadmill.

Generally very good but reduced rating because pulse meter only works intermittently.

"Perfect Treadmill from Joggers to Runners"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I was first wasn’t sure how big or wide the running belt will be but it turned out great. It is big enough for me and fold away nicely. It doesn’t take much space either. Very Happy with the Treadmill. I definitely recommend this, do not go for cheaper smaller treadmills.

"Exactly what I needed"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I'm 71 and 109.00 kgs. Before lockdown I could walk outside for an hour and feel great and I weighed loads less. My confidence has disappeared and I was in danger of becoming completely housebound. This treadmill has enabled me to start walking again. I'm safe inside and I can sit down if I start to feel wobbly. Hopefully I'll be able to get back outside one day but there'll always be a place for this beauty in my life. My son set it up for me, not something I could do, just the weight was too much. It's easy to use but I'm not sure it would stand up to any serious running. It's perfect for walking. Only trouble is I have a small house and the entire living room is taken up with treadmill, and oh yes, the cat is having a nervous breakdown!
