Horizon fitness T90 Treadmill, February 14, 2009
This review is from: Horizon Fitness T90 Treadmill (Sports)
Was so looking forward to getting this, was not disappointed with purchase, only drawback was took a long time to put together, and please follow directions not to tighten all the screws until all parts are assembled. Learned the hard way, tighted screws and then proceeded to opposite side and holes did not line up, had to loosen opposite side. Also one of the bolts was too big for the hole, thought of using drill to widen, but then would have lost the threading , so i took apart other side and switched screws, so happened one hole was larger on one side than the other so that worked !!! Wonderfully long , for those w' long stride, well built , easy to read monitors, great position of handles. Very Happy with this treadmill, did use heavy foam pads on carpet, very low noise, Great Deal, inexpensive for what u get, old treadmill was bulky and not long enough for my stride/ running or walking my toes w/ hit the front , I would highly recommend the T90 !

a satisfying buy, May 29, 2009
This review is from: Horizon Fitness T90 Treadmill (Sports)
I've been a runner for years, but this is the first treadmill I've bought for my home and I'm very satisfied with it so far. I've been running steadily on it for a week and a half now and have had no major problems.
First, I'd like to say that I bought this treadmill directly from Amazon and I chose the free super saver shipping (cutting about a hundred dollars off my total,) so I wasn't expecting it to get to me very quickly. But the treadmill shipped out about a week earlier than its first estimated shipping date, and it actually arrived on my doorstep nearly two weeks before the projected date of arrival. I am very pleased with Amazon's service in this area! But on to the product.
I put this treadmill together myself, and I had very little trouble with it. Following the instructions carefully (especially the part that continually iterates not tightening any bolts until the entire treadmill is assembled,) I got it together pretty easily. The only problem I had was with the weight of the thing, which made getting some of the pieces to line up a little difficult, but if you get someone to give you a hand with this (or if you're fairly strong; I myself am 5'4" and 110 in my socks,) this shouldn't be a problem at all. The first time I turned it on, I had some problems with the belt shifting to one side or the other, but I followed the instructions in the manual for fixing this and it straightened right back out. The only thing the instruction booklet was lacking in was the part that explained how to lubricate under the belt when you first use the treadmill; I figured it out easily myself, but it would have been nice if the instructions in the manual went into a little more detail on just how it's done.
I was satisfied with the packaging as well; it was well padded and everything was in great condition when I opened it up. The cup holder was dented and slightly cracked when I pulled it out, but the rest of the products in the box and the box that it came in itself were completely unharmed, so I assume that the flaw occurred before packaging, and it's not a big deal. Plus, I liked that all the parts for each individual step of assembly were bagged separately and labeled, "parts for step one", "parts for step two" - very helpful for someone like me, who can't tell the difference between a screw and a screwdriver. Overall, the packaging and arrangement of all the parts were very satisfactory.
I can't say how this treadmill stacks up to the higher-range ones, not having been a big treadmill runner up until now, but for me, this treadmill is exactly what I wanted. I have been running approximately ten miles a day on it since I got it, and I haven't had a problem yet. It is a little noisy, but maybe that's because I'm more used to the silence of running outside - and it's hardly noticeable with some music on in the background or headphones in. I would definitely recommend this model if you're looking for your first treadmill.

Great treadmill for the price, March 17, 2009
This review is from: Horizon Fitness T90 Treadmill (Sports)
I guess I'm the average person who buys this kind of treadmill. Someone who has tried gym memberships, but never went, but is willing to try it at home.
For my wife and I, this treadmill definitely works. Even at the gym with the expensive and durable treadmills, we never ran on them and prefer to keep out exercise to walking to avoid joint injuries, so naturally the weight limit wasnt a big issue.
The biggest advatange was the assisted folding on this treadmill. I've gone to many different sports outlets to try the differents folding, but most did not have the hydraulic assist that T90 has. So if you're looking for treadmill that doesnt require you to lift 50lbs of equipment everytime you want to use the treadmill, this is it.

Good buy for treadmills, April 6, 2009
This review is from: Horizon Fitness T90 Treadmill (Sports)
I purchased this treadmill for my wife and she loves it. You do have to put it together {which was a three on a scale of 1 to 5,with 5 the most difficult},but it is heavy. The details state it's moveable and foldable,which are true. It does fold up, just not completely flat against the wall so I would not call it compact. It does have wheels but it is a little too heavy to move once put together. It is sturdy and has plenty of programs for any fitness level, and the price was reasonable for what it can do. My wife and I are happy with the purchase.

Great price, March 21, 2010
This review is from: Horizon Fitness T90 Treadmill (Sports)
I bought this locally several months ago. Fortunately the store was able to do an in-home assembly as it was kind of complicated and very heavy to move in order to determine a good spot for it in the house. My best advice would be to measure accurately and decide beforehand where you want it and assemble it in place. It is too wide to fit through the standard doorway, so moving to another room once assembled is out of the question.
It works quite well and I have had no problems whatsoever. Compared to several other treadmills, it has many amenities for the price. Heart rate monitor, adjustable incline, speed settings that increase 0.1 mile increments and up to 10mph, large console for telephone, tv remote, large sports bottle, magazine, etc. You definitely won't be needing for space with this model. The hydraulic lift for the platform is also a great bonus. Its easy to lower and raise for a little extra space saving, but you don't have to worry about it hitting the floor too hard or being too heavy to lift.
Since I've only had this for 7 months or so and haven't used it as much as I wish I had, I can't speak too much of its staying power, but it is user friendly, durable, and was a great value for the money and I compared several models before buying and this was by far the best price.
The only dislike I have is that when you pause your program mid way, if you don't start it back up within 5 minutes, it shuts off automatically and all your data is lost. The same is true if the key is pulled - I know thats the idea for safety, but I wish it could save your data so it isn't lost when you go to restart right away.

Horizon T 90, February 28, 2010
This review is from: Horizon Fitness T90 Treadmill (Sports)
Bought this unit in Jan 2010,after walking everyday for one and a half month at the mid-range speed,I give 4 stars rating.It is quiet and steady ,much better than my previous unit and also easy to lift the platform.
The only complaint is the installation,screws and holes in the both holding bars do not fit in since the design is unbelievable bad.The manual for using is short and does not give enough details but I don't care since I can set my own walking pattern.Lastly,it worth the money with good value.The delivery by Amazon was excellent in both timing and condition.

Pretty good home treadmill, December 28, 2009
This review is from: Horizon Fitness T90 Treadmill (Sports)
This is a very good treadmill for home, for a good price. The electronic panel is simple and easy to use. It folds up with wheels on the bottom for moving/storing. Two of the screws on the bottom didn't line up very well, but was pretty easy to put together.

Great Treadmill, December 15, 2009
This review is from: Horizon Fitness T90 Treadmill (Sports)
This is a nice treadmill that runs smoothly and is fairly quiet. It was also pretty easy to put together (one hour). I have been using it 5 days a week for a month now and so far, so good.

treadmill works except for incline, October 26, 2009
This review is from: Horizon Fitness T90 Treadmill (Sports)
I like this treadmill for the most part; the belt is very functional, plus wide enough to be comfortable walking on. The display is good, plus it has a lot of "space" for things like water and phones/remotes to sit on.
The big problem I have with it, is the incline function isn't working. I've used the treadmill about a week, but have not yet contacted the manufacturer (I have been busy).
The treadmill came unassembled, but for the most part, it was not that hard to put together; I did it by myself in a few hours. I will add a minor gripe that one of the bolts doesn't seem to connect the pieces it should for the handlebar, but a second bolt is keeping it in place.
I want to add, that I only use the manual speed setting. I have not yet tried the other programs.
Rating: 4 of 5, is a fairly good estimate of it. It does work very well, but the issues I listed above prevent a perfect rating.

Horizon Treadmill, February 16, 2009
This review is from: Horizon Fitness T90 Treadmill (Sports)
My husband was able to read the directions and get the treadmill up and running without a hitch. He loves it! I have not tried it out yet as I get my exercise by other means but am looking forward to trying it out for a nice walk or jog.
