Horizon 1.3T Treadmill Review

The Horizon 1.3T treadmill is a 899$ training machine with a decent look and enough features to satisfy a casual home runner.

The machine is solid and durable but at the same time it has a serious minuses when it comes to the entertainment aspect: no mp3 dock or speakers. For this value you get a durable training machine with only 3 workouts programs, perfect for those who only want to train.

This treadmill doesn’t have a lot of features and it’s pretty basic but at the same time it’s a great training machine for anyone interested in a home-based product.

As a minus we note that the engine is not very powerful and you only have 3 workout programs.

This treadmill is an entry level machine but it comes with some features that are not regular for its class. Don’t expect to get a super value for this money. If you buy it you get a robust and decent treadmill which is more than enough for a light trainer who wants to lose weight or do simple workouts.

If you are a serious trainer or you want a “fun” treadmill we recommend getting another model.

This machine is an excellent choice if just want to run your daily 3 miles.
