Review Summary
From Amazon / Retail Reviews
-
Users praise the smooth, powerful motor and the high speed plus steep incline capabilities, which make the treadmill feel very gym-grade.
-
The swivel HD screen earns a lot of love: many reviewers say that being able to pivot the console toward you makes it very natural to hop off the belt and do strength or yoga workouts.
-
Several comments note that the control knobs for speed and incline feel very responsive and precise, compared to treadmills that only use touch screen.
-
Some drawbacks mentioned: it’s a very heavy machine, so placement matters, and you should be confident with floor space before delivery.
From Independent Reviews & Expert Sources
-
Garage Gym Reviews highlights the safety improvements — Tread Lock, an emergency stop, and a stop sensor in the belt — as major pluses.
-
According to Peloton specs, the treadmill has a compact footprint for its power, making it more “space-efficient” than many other high-speed treadmills.
-
BarBend notes that the 3.0 HP motor and speed/incline range are competitive for a consumer treadmill, but also calls out how heavy it is, which makes it less portable.
-
Consumer Reports points out that while the treadmill is well-built, the lack of built-in workout programs (without Peloton subscription) and no built-in fan may be drawbacks for some users.
-
On the safety side, historical context: earlier Peloton treadmills had recalls, but newer models include Tread Lock and enhanced safety measures.
-
Reddit users report some maintenance notes: the belt may need lubrication periodically, especially if it gets hot or shows signs of slipping. > “the belt … could get extremely hot … I measured > 100 degrees … if not lubricated.”
-
Other users mention a minimum weight requirement: some say the treadmill doesn’t behave properly for very light users (e.g. under ~105 lb), though this depends on firmware or calibration.
