Horizon T4 Treadmill Review


The Horizon T4 treadmill features a generous running space backed by a 2.5CHP motor. Even though it comes with a non folding frame you get a decent quality for the money paid.

This machine includes eight preset workouts that add variety to your training sessions. Plus you can use a wireless heart monitoring system for accurate tracking (chest strap is not included in standard package). The model features also the classic hand grips but as you probably know this system is not very reliable.

Overall the Horizon T4 treadmill is a decent machine. Still it’s far from being a top product. This is just a “middle” machine in the middle range class.

Conclusions For Horizon T4 Treadmill Review

The Horizon T4 Treadmill offers spacious running area that can easily accommodate tall runners (the length is 60’’). The motor has 2.5 CHP and it’s powerful enough to sustain home runners workouts.

However, we have expected to test a better model for this price.

A fault we noticed on this machine is the noise level which can get pretty high especially at high speeds.

The console has a cool design and all features are easy to access. Speed and incline can be set with one touch via the side buttons and the LED matrix display offers a clear view of your training details.

The warranty is another thing that could be improved. The time period offered is standard for this industry but this doesn’t mean they can’t extend it. We recommend going with the extended warranty if you decide to buy this model.

In conclusion we consider Horizon T4 Treadmill a standard machine for its class. Think about it as somewhere in the middle. There are enough better treadmills on the market but if you want have a Horizon, go for a T6 model.
