About this deal

Our review will outline all the key features and capabilities that it can offer you the consumer plus we will also outline in more detail about the pros and cons associated to this treadmill which you definitely need to know before you make any buying decisions. You should also know how it compares to various other treadmills available in the UK at present so we will also provide some comparison tables further below so you can compare for yourself all the features, dimensions, motor levels that interests you the most. FAQ's The bike is now in daily use by two of us. We find it smooth when cycling and it is helpful to have the display showing distance, heart rate, calories used, recovery etc. The ability to play your music through the built in speakers is nice but again the quality is not as good as some of the other budget treadmills in this category. Also using Bluetooth to play music just seems like old technology, it eats your battery life and just makes things more complicated than plugging in a simple male to male audio cable.

As it weighs over 50kg, it will be difficult to move it upstairs if that is where you intend to use it so please bear this is mind. Roger is shown on the gold treadmill and talks you through each step. Press start to begin with. The bottom row of buttons shows you your manual options. The incline is also electronic and programmable which is a major plus when you don’t want the hassle of having to change the incline manuallyIn terms of general care before, during and post-workout, especially if you are sharing the machine with friends and family in a post-covid world, make sure that you regularly wipe down your machine with antibacterial wipes or with a soft cloth and non-abrasive spray cleaner. Regularly Adjust & Clean Treadmill Belt If your budget can stretch a little further the ProForm 3.6 or BH Fitness Galileo both offer great value for money and include more pre-set programmes to get you into the all-important fat-burning zone.

The system is basic and so straightforward to use, speed and incline are easily adjusted and there is an option to choose from up to 10 pre-set programmes. I did not fully investigate the ability to set your own workout plan but the option is available should you require that level of flexibility. It’s easy to operate and has nothing to confuse the first time treadmill user but by the same token this could mean there’s nothing clever about it either. As you can imagine from a budget treadmill it has all the essential features over and above what you may expect. There were no faults with the clear LCD display or the various buttons that control the speed and include of the treadmill. To bring treadmill down for use – push the under bar with the yellow stripe and a little push and let go and let the machine descend on its own. Quite peaceful. Once it reaches the bottom you can plug in and off you go! Want to see a video of the Gold Foldable Treadmill? Please watch the Gold Foldable Treadmill in actionEven though the gold treadmill isn’t marketed as a fully folding treadmill, as with the Easy Fold Treadmill, this running machine can be folded up when not in use. This is great news for those seeking more variety with their runs and more intense usage. In this video, Roger is shown folding the machine and talking you through each step: Thanks to the supported running hardware, you can get a Zwift Run Pod which uses various features that turn training fun, so you can blend fitness with adventure. In Zwift’s many worlds, there’s always something exciting going on. Whether you’re training for your first 5k or have a triathlon in your sights, you’ll find a global community, captivating worlds, extensive training plans, and workouts to help you get after your goals. It does have some useful features such as calorie counter, heart rate, 3 target programmes and 3 pre-set programmes but certainly nothing more than you’d find on other machines costing much less. You can manually control your speed and incline as you like and once you know what you enjoy, use the shortcut buttons on the top layer. The top layer of buttons will automate your workout. A short video features below: Some treadmills can weigh over 80kg where this treadmill is considerably lighter coming in at less than 65kg in weight.

It can be folded away neatly when not in use, there are the hand grip pulse sensors as standard and the inclines are programmable depending on the level of difficulty you wish to work through. The max user weigh capacity for this model is 18st and 13Ibs or 120kg and there is the auto stop safety system clip included for your safety. The engine is Mains powered and provides continuous 1HP (horsepower) up to 2HP at peak with a maximum speed of 8.1 mph / 13 kph. Whether you're a marathon runner or an exercise novice this folding treadmill offers a wide variety of speeds to adapt to your needs. the recovery button has to be pressed within 5 seconds for it to work (explained in the instructions). That does not allow enough time to record the data from the ride and use the recovery mode. Having a memory for each individual would help. A heart rate monitor can be used as you run to monitor your pulse and the main LCD screen is basic for those who require a no frills product.Minor issues have been reported about the belt which needs to be tensioned or adjusted from time to time and it cannot be folded upright (only flat down)
