Pros & cons

Pros

  • Strong warranties for the price — lifetime frame and 10-year motor on premium Jet 300 and Floatride models
  • No subscription lock-in: every program and feature works out of the box, with Kinomap and third-party app compatibility
  • Stable, durable frames and generous cushioned decks (Air Motion / Floatride) — a long-standing strength even reviewers who criticise the motors acknowledge
  • Widely available and competitively priced through major UK retailers

Cons

  • Reviewers across multiple sites consistently flag motors as undersized for the large belts, raising early burn-out risk under heavy use
  • Just a licensed name, not built by Reebok — quality and support depend on the licensee, not the apparel brand
  • Official US store currently shows every treadmill as sold out, so US buyers are reliant on third-party retailers
  • Older ICON-era US models drew criticism for paltry parts warranties and were often out-specced by sibling brands like NordicTrack at the same price

Reebok Fitness brand is owned by Icon Health and Fitness, who also own ProForm, Healthrider, NordicTrack, FreeMotion, Weider, Weslo, Gold's Gym and the iFIT workout technology.

Reebok is a low end brand. They build very cheap products of low quality, such as treadmills, ellipticals, exercise bikes.

Current Models

Reviews:

Reebok treadmills are famous for being affordable and easy to use. On the other hand, they are not meant to last for many years.

We recommend some of their machines if you need a simple treadmill to stay in shape and you do not have too much money to spend. We must warn you though. Do not set your expectations too high, because you may be disappointed.

The treadmills under $1,000 have an entry level motor, appropriate for light jogging only.

The $1,000 + model have a more serious motor, and that is why they can be considered by runners too.

The components quality is not the best, and the warranty proves this. The most you get is one year for parts and labor. This is a strong warranty for a $700 Reebok treadmill, but too little for a $1,300 machine.

Main Strengths

They are affordable:

Offers start with $700 and there are several options in this price range.

iFIT LIVE: Starting with 2011, the new models have the iFIT LIVE module compatibility included. This is a detail we like because iFIT LIVE adds interactivity and workouts diversity.

Weaknesses

Poor Warranty:

All machines have a standard warranty, 1 year for parts and labor. This is better than what was offered before (90 days only), but there are other competitors that offer more.

Buying Tips

Reebok is not the best brand, but some of their machines are worth the attention. We can recommend the $700 versions for those who need a treadmill to jog 30-45 minutes a day. If you have more money to spend, choose NordicTrack, LifeSpan or Yowza.

Frequently asked questions

Does Reebok actually make its own treadmills?

No. Reebok licenses its name for fitness equipment. The current home and commercial range is designed and built by RFE International (which also makes adidas and Dynamax gear), while older US residential models were manufactured by ICON Health & Fitness — the same company behind NordicTrack and ProForm.

Are Reebok treadmills worth it?

For budget-to-mid-range home users in the UK and Europe they offer good value — stable frames, decent cushioning and unusually long warranties on the premium models. The main caveat reviewers raise is that the motors can be undersized relative to the belt, so they suit walking and moderate running better than heavy daily mileage.

Do Reebok treadmills need a subscription?

No. Unlike iFit-tied machines, Reebok treadmills run fully without any paid membership. They connect to the free Reebok Fitness App and work with Kinomap, though Kinomap's own full content library requires a separate subscription.

Can I still buy a Reebok treadmill in the US?

It's hit-or-miss. The official US Reebok fitness store currently shows all treadmill models as sold out, and the older ICON-built US lineup has largely been discontinued. You can still find current models through third-party US retailers such as DICK'S Sporting Goods, Walmart and Amazon, but the actively sold range is strongest in the UK and Europe.
