The Horizon T101 is consistently one of Horizon’s best selling treadmills and for good reason: it has all the essentials at a great price!
The T101 deck pivots to a 10% incline and it will go up to 10mph. The running surface is 20” by 55” long -- and it folds up when you are done! The T101 features 3 Zone variable cushioning which is adjustable via a knob on the side of the track.
Some of our favorite features include:
3-Zone variable response cushioning in deck
Gentle cushioning in the deck absorbs impact force when walking or jogging. This allows you to exercise without discomfort or pain.
Preset Speed and Incline Buttons
Preset speed and incline buttons on the console are visible and within easy reach. These allow you to jump from one speed to another or quickly adjust incline.
EKG grip sensors on handlebars
Placed directly under the console on the horizontal grip bar, the EKG sensors transmit your heart rate right to the console display.
FeatherLight Folding
The T101 folds up easily and locks in place when not in use. This reduces the amount of dedicated floor space you need for your treadmill.
Max User Weight: 300lb
The 300lb weight capacity is impressive on a treadmill this size! Users of all sizes can enjoy and benefit from the cushioned deck.
LED Display Metrics: Calories, Distance, Heart Rate, Incline, Speed, Time
The LED display keeps track of your stats during a workout with multiple adjustable stats.
Tablet Rack for your device
A tablet rack in the middle of the console is a great place to set a phone or tablet. You can listen to a podcast, watch a show or even read a book on your device.
0 - 10% Incline range
Incline range is how far your treadmill will pivot upward. As the front end of the tread deck rises, it becomes more challenging to walk. This hill work builds muscle in the legs without having to run.
Lifetime Warranty on Motor and Frame
Horizon is one of the few treadmill companies that still offer Lifetime warranty. This reflects the quality construction of the T101 as the company stands behind the product.
Its been 3 weeks with this machine, its awesome! The price for this machine was absolutely amazing for the quality. I would definitely recommend this to someone getting started for fitness, and making a new years goal!
Awesome! We are glad to hear you love your T101!
How's their shipping
@@JTG313 I actually picked this unit up at Dicks sporting good! I had to check a couple of times to see if they had them in stock because all treadmills were sold out. lifetime on the motor can’t beat that and easy assemble!
Do you know how easy it is to move? I just out it together.. but I know eventually it will go into another room.
@@winterhughe5495 Machine it self does fold, but I haven’t had to nice moved it. I’m sure it shouldn’t be to hard .
Best treadmill review I've ever watched. Thanks
Great! We're glad it is helpful!
I have been using this for 18 months. I started walking on it at 288 pounds. Now down to 260 pounds. It works fine for me for walking. For programs getting up to 4mph, it does start to feel a bit unhappy. But I now walk on it comfortably at 3.2 mph and have done 2 1-hour sessions in a day, just fine.
Awesome review. I had already purchased this treadmill, it just got delivered, and after watching your review I'm so glad I did. Now just have to figure out where to put it. Thanks so much.
Hello how do you like it so far has it ever stopped abruptly?
I have been using it for a while ..and it’s easy to use and quiet.
Great honest review. I live on a 2nd fl apt and need a small quiet one. I only walk 30 to 45 min and like the incline feature. Definitely interested
The T101 would be a good option for you.
She did great on this review
Love the review! Very informative and detailed. Thank you!
Thanks Mini!
I just purchased one of these and came to YT to learn more about it. Very well done review video. Comprehensive and well explained by a very pretty and knowledgeable lady. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Great video! I am thinking of purchasing to start my fitness journey. It sounds like a quality entry level machine. Thank you for reviewing!
I just purchased yesterday....with expected delivery this week. I can't wait
After watching your review, I went with the T202 because I'm heavier and would eventually like to run on it. I'm super happy with it so far.
Great to hear!
@@TreadmillReviewGuru I’m not understanding why you are not responded to repeated questions about how to input weight metrics. Would you mind letting us know HOW to input weight on the machine? You previously stated that we could enter weight. Thank you.
@@marlo2809 shut up
@@marlo2809 you can't enter your weight. Please check you user manual
Best treadmill review. Well explained. Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks! This is perfect timing. I was considering buying this model used, buy now I'm thinking should rly upgrade. Now I just have to solve the problem of affordable shipping to Alaska😥 (yes its very pretty outside but also, sometimes very cold😨)
this treadmill is awesome!
I found a coupon code by googling it. Buy directly from their site when it’s on sale. Basically covered my shipping
this is my top choice right now for a treadmill, but I am very concerned about some people saying it abruptly stops when you're walking. Seems like a make or break thing for me. Otherwise it has everything im looking for.
We haven't had that issue. Not sure what would cause it to abruptly stop while in use...?
I just received this T101 treadmill on Dec. 8. I do like that it is quiet. So far, I have tried to use the "Manual program"...and that's all I really want to use, to be able to set the speed and time myself. But, it doesn't stay at a constant stable speed. The speed became irregular after about 15-20 minutes. The worse part is that it will speed up without any indication/warning, even too dangerous fast and then slow down to very slow speed. I have tried to get tech help, via phone, online form and email. I even sent them a video clip. Not sure if it's because of holiday or pandemic delay, so far I haven't received feed back. I know this year is hard for every body, but I really like it to work and not scare to get on the treadmill.
Would you mind to share what speed did you set (the issue you said it became irregular and speed up without indication)? What is your weigh? if that is ok with you because I am planning to get this mode, thanks!
@@frankisme7792 I tried a few different speeds: 1.3, 1.4, 1.5 and my son tried 2.0. I am about 128lbs and my son is 145lbs. Also, I just received the company's email that they were sending us a new part and would arrange tech support. I appreciate that they seem to be on top of it ...going to fix it.
@@dianali7158 Thank you for the response!
We got this machine just after Xmas. When I'm walking on it at 3.0 the belt will stop with no notice and the motor will make a thunking sound.. It's a death trap. I have also experienced where the belt stops, the display went all jumbled and the speed and incline both went to max.
After 3 months of waiting for parts to come and are always backordered, they are sending me a new machine.
@@TheKspokes Feel sorry about both of us. I have had same experience but not something related to motor, it was the cushioning rubbers underneath the deck. There was a huge crack just after one week use. And, it is so ture that it is IMPOSSIBLE to reach out to their bad customer service, it usually takes 3-4 weeks form them to reply and like you mentioned the replacement parts also take forever to ship and deliver, even the repair contractor who is responsible for my case also complianted about their customer service. I am still waiting on my part which is just one tiny black rubber, it has been 2 months. Hopefully I am able to get it by the end of this year.
thank you! so much you were so kind
Would love to see reviews on some of the other T-line models like the 202 or 303.
This is perfect! I don't think you need more than this.
Thanks for the review. I just bought one today.
A very helpful and well-organised review. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for this excellent demo/review. :-)))
Glad it was helpful!
This treadmill is so reasonably priced. I am a casual jogger that typically runs for about 30 mins at a moderate pace. I wonder if this T101 would be a good fit for my home? There is lots of rain on the west coast and prefer to run inside. I don't see myself walking that much. I noticed the other treadmills from Horizon have the same width. I am 180lbs 5'9".
The Horizon T101 is a good little treadmill. For regular running, we recommend looking for a motor that is close to 3.0 horsepower if possible. If you run at or below 6mph a few times per week, you'll be fine with the T101. If your pace is slightly faster than that, and/or if you run everyday, we'd recommend looking at the T202 which has a 2.75HP and is 60" long rather than 55". However, we are consistently impressed with Horizon's build quality and they do back up their frame and motor with a full lifetime warranty, so you'll probably be fine with the T101 (we just always err on the side of power when it comes to motor size.) Good luck!
@@TreadmillReviewGuru Appreciate your input!
Nice, clear and informative review. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
This is the best review
Thank you for watching!
Thank you so much for the review, please make a review on the Horizan adventure T11, I’m a runner but I live in a flat and not looking for a big treadmill.
is the Horizon Adventure T11 good for running?
Thanks for the great and detailed review! The Horizon T101 seems like an excellent treadmill. However, it lacks the heart rate program and does not work with a heart rate chest strap, which only T303 has. I found a similar treadmill from Schwinn (810) has both, but with the current discount with Horizon, the Schwinn 810 is more expensive. In your opinion, which of the two treadmills is better in terms of both built and features? If Horizon is better, perhaps it is worthwhile to forego the heart rate program for a better built machine, but I do want the heart rate program.
The Horizon T101 is a good entry-level treadmill, but it does lack certain features and doesn't have the best record for durability. We'd probably recommend looking at the Schwinn 810 or even the Sole F63. It's a bit more expensive but much more reliable and it has heart rate training.
@@TreadmillReviewGuru Thank you for your advice. Really appreciated!
Can someone answer this question… the ON and OFF button on the front of the thredmill .. does it need to stay ON or OFF ? .. ON when only using ? Or does it matter if i leave the ON button .. even when Im not using it ? Confused .. help
When I use the Bluetooth speakers they are not very loud even with the device volume all the way up. Is there a way to adjust the Bluetooth speaker volume on the machine as well?
Thank you finally a real review! 👍
Hi your review is really great but aside from the treadmill can you please share what is that running shoes your wearing looks comfy. Thank you
These are the Nike 270. They are a great hybrid shoe, but actually not the best for running. I find them to be very adaptable for wearing around the studio, and they provide excellent support when I'm lifting or moving equipment. But for outdoor/distance or treadmill running, I'd recommend the Nike Infinity React Run Flyknit 2. Those are my favorite running shoe.
I just purchased this machine. I'm 5' 4" and 230 lbs, I'm planning to use it now for walking and light jogging to help me lose weight. Is this recommended for someone like me?
Yes! The T101 would be perfect! I hope you love it!
How do you adjust the levels for the weight loss program? I can't seem to find any info on that.
HI Love the video! Can you review the ProForm 505 CST Treadmill? I'm debating between these two. Thank you! Keep up the great work!
I got mine in July...everything went well until november but since dec the speed and inclination keys are not working.
And Twice it abruptly stopped midway while I was walking and the treadmill started making beeping sound!!!
No on call customer support just mailed them and waiting !
Any updates? Did they get it fixed under warranty?
They didn’t even replied back my email forget about fixing it.
I bought it online and there is no physical location where I can ask for support.
Buy it in store so that you can catch them if any problem arises.
@Suboor Khan Did the company follow up with you?
@@welcometototalitarianism812 they never called or replied to my email but the promotion emails kept coming.
Fortunately my treadmill started acting well after few months itself.
I am preparing to buy a treadmill. The one thing that is giving me pause, is all the comments saying how bad the customer service is. I'm not a do-it-yourself-fixer type, so I need a reliable company. How does customer service factor into your reviews? Also, I bought an appliance through Amazon. The customer service email was barely in English with no follow up. Just want to avoid that again.
My old horizon hasstopped working. I have had it for 16 years or more. Thinking about a new one. Missing my old one.
Did you get a new one? If so, how's that going?
Tqsm for this excellent review! Could you please, please do a review on the TR5 as well..am looking for a compact Horizon treadmill but am not sure if the TR5 would be a good choice, especially cos the walking surface is somewhat smaller. Also, whether it is a quiet machine. Tq.
Glad you like the review! We don't have a TR5 in our studio, so we haven't been able to test that one, sorry! The T101 is the smallest Horizon treadmill we have on hand.
Great review, would you recommend it to person like me (220 pounds, run with 5.5 mph for about 3.5miles per day and 5 days per week)? T202 is out of stock in my local store:(
The T101 should support your amount of running just fine. Plus, it has a full lifetime warranty on the motor and frame
@@TreadmillReviewGuru Thank you!
Hi I just purchased this treadmill and I love it. How do I input my weight?
Mine turns on but 'select level' keeps scrolling across the top. I push start, it don't go. I unplugged it a few times but that didn't help. Suggestions?
How to use the Bluetooth?
Have you done an upright bike review? I am looking at one for my mom and am lost. I purchased the sole SB900 thanks to your previous review!
Do you mean a recumbent bike review? We do have reviews for NordicTrack and LifeSpan recumbent bikes here:
czcams.com/video/XKAjQjsUDrU/video.html
czcams.com/video/ASQ6HkKEas4/video.html
When I connect music through Bluetooth my volume is barely audible. Any recommendations?
Great video 👍
Thanks 👍
Great review!! I'm 130 lbs and 5'1. My typical (running) workout is 5 mi @ 6mph. From what I've read this treadmill seems like a good fit. Am I correct? I also walk 5 miles on the days I don't run (every other day)
Yes, you should be fine. If you plan to run for longer than an hour, we recommend taking a look at the Horizon T202. It has a slightly more powerful motor which will support longer distances a bit better. For your intended usage, the T101 will be fine. Good luck!
Nice review, but when I'm power walking at 4.5mph, I swing my arms like crazy. I'm thinking that my hands would bang against the underside of the console unless I stand all the way at the end of the belt....and I'm only 5'6". Also, it would be great if you could do a review of some fold-DOWN treadmills for us condo dwellers. The fold-ups still take up a lot of space and look like hell. I'd be willing to give up some stuff in exchange.
That's good input. Thank you! If you are looking for a compact folding treadmill, check out the Echelon Stride. It folds down completely and would be a good option for a condo. It is great for walking but may not be powerful enough for running.
@@TreadmillReviewGuru Thanks, but it's nearly $2k and is subscription based. I wouldn't want to spend more than $1000, but to fold flat, you usually have to give up the incline function.
Great review. Thank you.
Great review overall! I have coule questions: since this treadmill is meant for light walker and the reviewer especially mentioned that it is not for long duration of running, how durablee would it be for a moderate runner(around 5-7 MPH)? Or should I look into T202 for this purpose? Also does it have pause function because I know some treadmills only allows you to stop the entire session even if you just want to simply pause it and grab a water.
The treadmill will pause briefly if you need to step away. Due to the size of the deck and motor, the T101 is ideal for walking and light jogging. The 55" length is enough for a comfortable walking gait and the 2.5HP motor handles walking and jogging speeds fine. The T202 is longer at 60" and has a 2.75HP motor, so it provides more kickback span for a longer running stride and the larger motor suits faster running speeds. The T101 will support running at 5-7mph - it's not going to break down - but it is slightly more taxing on the motor and you don't get quite as much deck length. The T202 will support that pace a bit easier especially if you plan to run longer distances. The extra length is nice as well. You could go with either, but if your budget permits, we'd recommend the T202.
Excellent, thorough and informative review.
Great review. I’m 5 ft, 125 lbs and would like to build up to half an hour jogs at a speed of 6. Is this treadmill okay for me?
Yes, for your weight and anticipated usage you should be fine.
@@TreadmillReviewGuru I have asked this question before but didn’t receive a response. Please let us know HOW to input your weight into the system so it can calculate calories burned more accurately. Thank you.
Great review.
Thanks!
Nice review, I'm really interested in this. How long can it run at the highest incline with anywhere between 3mph to the highest mph setting? Could you get at least a good hour out of it or an hour and a half daily? Or will the next models be better? Thank you.
We've tested ours using multiple speeds and users. It holds up fine. With long term use, it may wear out faster than the T202 or T303 which have larger motors... but really it's sufficiently powered for regular use. However, the console on this one is a bit limited, so if you want more functionality, you may want to upgrade for that reason.
My husband uses a cane and needs to hold on while walking on the treadmill. What is the height of the handrails measured from deck?
5’9 185 lbs I like jogging from 5-7 speed is that okay? For 15-20 min
Sure, you should be fine.
Nice review! Seeking for your advice, I struggle to choose between T101 & T202. I run 5 - 10 km (avg. 7 km per month), average pace 6' 48" (based on Nike Run Club). May I know which one is more suitable for me? Many thanks!
We'd recommend the T202. It has a touch more power and cushioning. For running, we definitely recommend the T202.
I just assembled mine and it won’t turn on? I’ve tried to outlets
Mines come in a day or two 😬💕
Debating between the 101 and 202..I prefer to run on my treadmill
If you plan to run, we'd recommend the T202 or T303.
I’ve recently bought this model but there is a screw in the front near the bottom and I’m not sure if I should skrew it tighter or not
Hello, the one we have is the same. I tried to tighten it and it would not tighten.
Thanks for the review. My typical workout is 4 miles at 8:00 - 8:30 minutes/mile (7 - 7.5 mph), around 32 to 35 minutes, every other day. Is the T101 sufficient or should I upgrade to the T202?
We'd probably recommend the T202 for you. The T101 is great for walking but the 2.5HP motor isn't as powerful as you may need for your running speed.
great information.
I want to walk a 10k on it without stopping, how do I use the distance button without it stopping? I just got it today so I’m practicing
Currently having issues with changing speed not sure if I’m doing something wrong
great review thank you
how long should i be on the treadmill at running speed if i want the treadmill to keep up
Great Video I am 54 and 167 pounds I walk an hour and I do about 30 minutes of light jogging. And my husband weighs 210 pounds and he walks. Will the basic line work for me and my husband?
I’m 5 foot 4
It should - it's hard to know. The T101 is a great budget option, but it isn't as durable as more expensive treadmills. However, for two people walking you should be fine. If you're looking for something just a step up, maybe check out the T202 or T303. They have just a bit more power.
Is this a good treadmill for me for HIIT workout, like ramping the speed up to 6-7mph for 30s? Weight 145lb, 5.4height
Yes, the T101 should work for intervals. The T202 has a slightly larger motor and may be preferable for your intended speed, but the 101 is a good, affordable option.
Thank you very much for the review. Just got this one few days back. I have a question, how do I set a 5k option in this model? I had horizon before this for almost 8 years and that model had a programmed 5K option, and I used it extensively. With this new model, I don’t see a programmed 5K option, so just wondering if and how I can set it up. Any advice on this will be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much !
Hi, are you still happy with this model? I'm thinking on buying it. Thanks!
You can set 5K under the distance program. Press enter to change the distance.
Is it not good for running for an hour for a 200 lb fella?
I got this machine couple of weeks ago. I am satisfied with the quality of the machine. However I do have a question. when we click on start button..it starts with .5 but after increasing the speed to say 5..i need to stop first and then click on start othrwise it's moving at .5mph speed only. Is this the expected funcationality?
What is the weight capacity? As I'm 260 lbs. and just 5'4"" tall, do you still recommend this treadmill? An how much does it incline? Where can I buy one online since I can't find it on amazon? Thanks for your video.
The maximum user weight is 300lb (136kg)
Before I buy I just want to know if it has more cushoning than the Sole or the Spirit that is comparable to it's model? (size)
I can't speak to the Spirit as I haven't tested those treadmills, but the T101 has a little bit more cushioning than the comparable Sole models like the F63.
opinion please.. only to walk 60 year old waloking only right at 250 pounds?? will this work for me or buy the 202 thanks
The T101 should work fine. The T202 has a larger motor and may be a better option if it's within your budget.
Is this ok for 280lb user. I plan on using it just for walking for an hour 7 days a week. Anywhere from 3.0-4.0 speed. I'll add some incline occasionally. Please advise. Thank you.
Yes, this treadmill should be good for you and that level of use. The max weight capacity is 300 lbs.
Pls explain how to do distance setting
How long do the last
I can’t get the belt to stay centered 🤦🏻♂️ can someone help me
What constitutes heavy running? I tend to run in the 2-3 mile range 4-5 days a week, and I hope to increase my distance to 4-5 miles. Would that surpass what's ideal for this machine?
The T101 is a solid little treadmill. It is not very large and the motor is just at the cusp of what we recommend for regular running. However, if you are a petite user with a moderate pace you'll probably be fine. The cushioning is a bit more extensive on the higher models, but this is a comfort and not functionality issue.
Why isn't there any clear information on how to use the pre-set workouts/programs? All I keep seeing & hearing in every video review is for manual operation. The book that comes with the treadmill is no help, either. Can someone please explain how to use the pre-set workouts & what each workout is?? Manual operation is self explanatory yet the pre-set options are never explained, which is what I need.
Power on switch.
Use + or - key to see programs, when you see P1 or P2 etc, to choose one you want then you press ENTER.
To change intensity levels, use + or -. when you have what you want press ENTER.
Press START to begin your chosen program.
Info is on page 19, *SELECT A WORKOUT OR TARGET*
It turns on but it keeps scrolling along the top, select level. And it won't go anywhere. Unplugged it a few times and that didn't help. Can you help me or a phone number!
Can you define "long distance training"? If I bought this for a daily 5 mile run at about 6mph, would this suit that purpose?
Yes, you should be fine. The T101 will handle an hours worth of use just fine. We define long distances as those consistently over an hour or faster than 6mph on a regular basis.
how do i do the 12(incline) 3(speed) 30(minutes) on it
Would you recommend this for a 5’9 225lbs male for walking 1 hour x several days a week?
Yes, the T101 would be a great option for walking several days a week
with it having a 2.5 motor what is considered light/short running distances. 2m/5m/8m?
We recommend maximum usage of about an hour a day or 6 miles (10k) per session for motors this size. Speeds over 7mph (11kph) can be taxing on the motor. With slower speeds, you can go longer.
Thank you for this review. I walk 4.5 miles and hr for 100 min x 6 days a wk and weigh 105 lbs. Would this machine be recommended?
Yes, absolutely
@@TreadmillReviewGuru Thank you!
Purchased ours 2 weeks ago. Finally got it set up and on our first walk the machine made a loud popping noise, the lights all started flashing and it died. Customer service department is non existent. Can't get ahold of anyone to help. NOT HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm 210 lbs and I walk an hour everyday about 3-4 mph. Is this treadmill suitable, will the motor last. I had a Weslo cadence and used it around a hundred times and went defective.
We'd recommend looking at a slightly larger model. The T202 or T303 would both provide a bit more power. The Sole F63 is probably our top recommendation for you, it is a bit more expensive, but it offers a 375 max weight capacity and is extremely durable and powerful.
@@TreadmillReviewGuru Thanks
I have this! But I don’t know how to reset the time
hold stop button for 3 seconds
This company literally does not have any customer service. I just spent $700 on this machine at Dick's. After trying to contact them several times with nothing other than an automated response, I called Dick's and they said if I paid for a warranty with them they would send a tech. I said why should I do that when the manufacturer (their vendor) has a warranty.
Bottom line is the product is cheap for a reason. If you have a problem, your lugging it back to the store or getting ripped off again to get it fixed.
As to Dick's, they're customer service is also terrible. I guess that guys parents knew what they were getting when they named him.
Oh, no don't say that....just purchased
@@peachesroyale How has the product been for you?
@jp m Om gosh. Can you give us an update? Did you get any help? If not Dick's, where else can we go to talk to real ppl?
@@welcometototalitarianism812 I don’t wanna jinx myself but tbh no issues at all. I had it for a year now. I run/walk on it. It is quiet too….not loud like most
How do you move it once its assembled and/or how far do you need to disassemble it to move it from one room to the other?
The T101 will fold, so you can fold and roll it. If your doorframe is wide enough, you may be able to roll it through. We'd recommend measuring your doorframe and possibly removing the door from the hinges before you disassemble the treadmill. If you need to disassemble it, you'll have to remove the console and possibly the uprights. We only suggest this as a last resort.
I’m so torn on buying this horizon t101 or the sole f63. I’m a stay at home mom trying to lose some weight
Either one would work great. The Sole F63 is a little larger, so it requires a touch more space. But I prefer it slightly over the T101. For at-home use, you'll be happy with either one.
If I’m jogging and I’m 5’3 135 lb is that fine? Or should I go with the T202?
For how long and how often are you planning on jogging?
I bought a cheapy treadmill last March and the motor died today 😥. I'm researching my options for a replacement and this does look promising. My question is that you don't recommend it for long distances, can you describe more what is considered long distance running? I was doing 4 mile/1 hour power walks daily.
You'll be fine. This is fantastic for walking. It may be a bit underpowered for those who want to run long distances, but you can walk forever without a problem.
Is the humming sound a normal operating sound from the motor?
Yes, as long as it's not too loud or sounds gritty. The motor produces a slight whirring noise as the belt slides along the deck. If it's unusually whiny or sounds like it's clacking then I'd contact Horizon CS.
Hi what is the highest incline the machine goes up to?
The Horizon T101 inclines to a 10% grade.
I'm 130 lbs and 5'2 i do interval running up to 6.8mph (11kmph) do u think this treadmill can sustain me 🥺
Yes, you should be fine.
I’m watching your review and you keep mentioning smaller users. What weight range are you considering smaller users? I’m looking at this product, and will most likely use it for walking, and incline use. I’m not a big runner, but I may use it for that some times.
We recommend the T101 for users under 6 feet tall because the deck is only 55" long rather than 60" long. The motor is 2.5hp which is good for walking or some quick intervals, but may not be sufficient for longer distances (>6miles at >6mph) For taller users or those who need the full 60" of length, we recommend looking at the T202 which is a bit longer and has a larger motor.
@@TreadmillReviewGuru thank you! This is the one I bought, and it’s perfect for me 😊
would love to get your input. Im 5'11 190.. would a 10-15 mile walk per day at 2-3mph be too much for this treadmill to handle?
We think you should be okay. Your weight and speed are well within range. Walking 10+ miles per day is quite a distance however, and this could be taxing on the motor over time. An upgrade to the T202 would not be a bad idea if you can afford it. However, we are consistently impressed with the T101 and it is excellent for walking. It also has a full lifetime warranty on the frame and motor which would cover any issues in the future.
@@TreadmillReviewGuru I forgot to mention 10-15 mile walk shared with family members and occasional jogging/light running. I ended up seeing your sole f63 review and got that instead. thank you for your response!
I run 2 miles every other day at 8.5 speed and 1% incline. I weight 200 lbs. I this treadmill for me?
It's a little small. How tall are you? If you're close to 6 feet, I'd recommend looking at something bigger. The Sole F63 is a good option and it's just a bit more $$.
Is treadmill good for knees?
