Another good model from Horizon fitness would be T500 treadmill. This one has a nice design with a 2.0 CHP motor which is quiet and does its job well. If you want something that is good for long run at good speed, a motor above this rating would be preferred. As with most of the Horizon treadmills, this has a sturdy design with great controls and is easy to store.
Some people do get issues with installation but a help from the dealer would be a good option and do check out on the price discounts.

Andrew says
I have this model. But I’m smelling burning wire coming from the motor. I have the running belt fully lubricated and I have adjusted the motor drive belt. But I have the same problem. Any suggestions?
Julie Jones says
We have this model and it has worked great, until just recently, when it started running “jerky.” The LUBE light is not on, and we do lube when needed, so took a chance and did the lube, hoping it might fix the problem, but it still runs jerky, in spurts. Help, please?
Tom says
Yes. I had the same symptom and the motor failed. The original is I think 1.5 and if it is in wararrany period for the motor they will send you a new one at two hp.
