Needed something to have at my convenience to get some motion in the daily routine. This delivers...only when I do, but it delivers.
Well made, easy to use and there when I need to get moving...highly recommended!
I spent months trying to figure out how to get the best bang for my buck in regards to treadmills. I’m not in the market for the same fancy equipment I’d had at the gym, but I also didn’t want something that would fall apart the moment I started jogging. I was also looking for something that looked aesthetically pleasing...it’s amazing how many clunkers are out there on the market. Some even double the price of this machine!
I was a little nervous because it was a newer product, but the reviews and pictures sold me. This arrived on time, was easy to assemble (about 15 minutes). Overall it’s sturdy, it’s easy to use, and I feel stable whether I’m walking or jogging. Can’t say what it’s like running full speed, but I’d imagine it’s the same.
The width of the machine is decent for the price. I smacked my hands a few times, but I learned quickly and haven’t had problems since. My machine delivered with the machine in the “elevated” position and I didn’t realize it. I recommend familiarizing yourself with the machine before going for a run. I wasn’t expecting to jog on an incline!
My only complaint, and I didn’t even dock a star for it, is I really wish the display screen had a screen protector during shipping. Mine has a few scuff marks that I was a little annoyed with, but this machine is so good, I got over it real quick. Also, the cup holder is small. It really only fits a standard bottle of water, nothing larger.
Final thoughts: Stop searching. If you want to stay under $500, this is the best on the market.
This treadmill exceeded my expectations. Its easy to assemble. Easy to fold. Great for small spaces. Lots of thoughtful features such as sit-up bars, hand weights and exercise back mat. Really love this treadmill because it gives a complete workout at home.
I do not normally review items unless I have a good reason. I just wanted to say that this treadmill is exactly what I wanted! I have had several treadmills over the years at various price points, and this one just met all my expectations. Item is fairly heavy when arrived, may need two people to carry it. Assembly is very straight forward, should take less than an hour to assemble regardless of your mechanical skills. I feel like it took longer to remove from the box than to assemble.
Besides easy assembly, I am also thrilled with how quite and smooth this treadmill is. It was quite enough that I did not even need to raise the volume on my TV.
Overall, its a great buy! Strongly recommended!!
This is a 5 star product based on what it is. If youre looking for a super high end treadmill with all the bells and whistles, youre bound to be disappointed. But if youre looking for new and affordable ways to get moving during a dark, icy winter while stuck home during the pandemic, this may be just what you are looking for!
When it first arrived, I was struck by how thoughtfully it seemed packaged. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that packing materials were even utilized by the assembly instructions! Ive never seen that before and it was kind of neat.
It would have been easier to set this up with help, but I was able to move it upstairs and get it assembled all by myself. The instructions are clear, the parts well made, and the included tools are decent.
This treadmill is compact, which is what I was looking for. Im about 58 and 150 lbs and it fits me just fine. If you are especially large in any dimension, this may not be the machine for you. The size is great for walking or jogging, but running might be a little more challenging, especially if you take long strides.
This unit has a lot of nice to haves like the cup holders, device tray, pulse detector, sit-up bars and mat, and hand weights. The hand weights arent very heavy - about 1.5 pounds, but theyre perfect for jogging with.
The machine is quiet and operation is easy. It folds up nicely and is simple to move. Everything seems sturdy and well built. One drawback is that built-in speed and distance tracking are only in kilometers.
You can just use the programs and controls on the machine itself, however, I do prefer to use the app. The FitShow app is pretty bad, but I think its still worth having. Its a poorly translated and programed app from China, and Ive seen lots of people asking about it because it seems to come with a lot of devices other than this one, so Ill share what works for me (at least as of the writing of this review).
First, download directly from your App Store. The QR code on the treadmill may just take you to a webpage with writing in Chinese. Registering your account is very confusing. What you need to do is fill out all the info on the registration screen and the tap the Get Code button. Then go check your email (and maybe the spam folder). Its not obvious, but what it will do is email you a verification code that you can then enter into the box and complete your registration.
It will ask you all sorts of goofy questions, like whether you have tuberculosis or are interested in horsemanship. It will ask for your location and perhaps give you options on the other side of the planet. Feel free to lie when answering these questions, if it makes you feel better. But you should probably enter in your actual physical stats, to help with accuracy for calculating workouts.
If you click on Discover you can find a decent variety of programs based around targets (time, distance, speed) or control like jogging, fat burning, or the best named middle-aged. Select the one you want and add it to your favorites. (Note - it will forget your favorite programs the next time you use the app. You will likely need to browse and add each time.)
After that, head back to Sport tap on indoor to connect to the treadmill, and then tap on more to browse for the program you previously added to your favorites. Then you can start your workout.
Why go through all this trouble? The Me section will keep track of your history, including distance, time, and calories burned. You can also switch the app to display information in miles, if you like. I find this history handy.
You can also join groups and pit yourself against other exercisers. I havent done anything with this and dont know how well it works. Really, the app is the weakest part of this whole package, and it would be awesome if they improved it, but hey. At this price point, I list it as a nice to have and not a must have.
I was hesitant to buy this treadmill at first, because when I purchased it, it didnt have any reviews yet. But I looked at reviews for other products the company was selling, and folks had high praise for their customer service. I hope I never have to find out what customer service is like for myself, but if its anything like the overall quality of this $300 treadmill, I imagine Ill be pleased when taking into consideration what I paid.
UPDATE 09/27: I received a messegae from the seller after I posted the review. They offered me to send a replacement leg and refund 15% of the price. I agreed. Got the replacement parts, assembled. Working fine. Im giving it a 4 star now from 1 star I rated previously.
I had to request reolacement because it was missing a couple of botls and nuts. The replacement came, I assembled which is extremely hard to do, and realized one of the legs was broken. But I didn’t want to take everything apart and return so I kept it. Don’t buy this garbage. Spend your money somewhere else.

Good to use
Good product. It is what I want to have for my family exercise purposes. Not super easy to assemble but once assembled, it does work.
This treadmill is highly recommended and exceeded expectations.
