When buying a home treadmill, price and appearance is vital, but we also should know more about its performance and function. Different running spaces and goals need diverse treadmill configurations. There are 8 factors we should consider when choosing a home treadmill.
1. Belt. The length and width of running belt are important factors we need to consider when choosing a home treadmill. The running belt is the part of treadmill that you touch the most, which plays an important role in running comfort and safety. A longer and wider belt offers you big activity space. The wide belt allows a large range of motion, and the body can also stretch out better, therefore lead to a great exercise effect. Choosing the belt based on your height, usually a 55-inch long belt is okay for walking or running. If you're taller, you can choose the wider as well.
2. Horsepower. The horsepower decides the speed of a home treadmill. If your treadmill is mainly used for walking or jogging, 1hp is good for operation, while if for running at a fast speed, you should choose the one with horsepower over 1.5hp.
3. Save space. If the home treadmill is foldable or not is also a vital factor when picking a treadmill, especially for an apartment or limited space, after using it, just put it under a desk, bed, or sofa, a foldable treadmill will help a lot for making full use of home space.
4. Sport goals. Usually, there are mainly two types of home treadmills, for walking and running. A walking slim home treadmill requires less features than running.
5. Budget. Generally speaking, before purchasing, you need to think of your budget, how much you want to invest in this home treadmill, and what effect you want to get. If you don't get one that achieves your sports goals, there's a good chance that you don't use it. On the other hand, we may have mental stress when spending more than our budget. So thinking twice will be great.
