Horizon Fitness T91 Electric Treadmill

Electrical Treadmill - Horizon Fitness T91 Electric Treadmill

For this post I will be reviewing an electric treadmill of moderate price range and power. This is the Horizon Fitness T91 electrical treadmill. Why do I say it is under the moderate category? The Horizon Fitness T91 has an electric treadmill motor which is rated 2.0 continuous-duty horsepower (CHP) which is quite powerful but not as powerful as the best top ranged electric treadmills. The selling price of the Horizon Fitness T91 is also priced at the mid range ($599). This is already at a discounted price. The original price of this electric treadmill is $899, hence you can say that this is an electric treadmill for sale!

With this high horsepower, the Horizon Fitness T91 electrical treadmill is able to run smoothly and quietly at a wide range of speeds (from 0.5 to 10 miles per hour). The treadmill provides a running area of 20 by 50 inches featuring a 1.6 mm two-ply belt and is able to take a maximum weight of 275 pounds. The actual dimension of the electrical treadmill is 34 by 58 by 67 inches (W x H x D) and it weighs 176 pounds. This electric treadmill also features inclined workouts, allowing you to set an elevation range of 0 to 10 percent. Do not forget the AeroSoft air cell cushioning as well, which will allow you to have more shock absorbance and also it will be less strenuous on your knees and joints.

The Horizon Fitness T91 electric treadmill has a control console mounted with a beautiful LCD screen. Not to be looked down upon, this treadmill also has nine workout programs, including manual, intervals, and rolling hills. You can choose from one of three different goals (such as time, distance, calories) and one of three terrains (such as manual, intervals, and hills). Some of the other features include contact heart rate grips to measure the person’s heart rate as well as Horizon's exclusive FeatherLight lift system, which consists of two hydraulic shocks that aids you to raise and lower the treadmill deck, thus allowing easy storage. If you are considering to buy this electrical treadmill model, you might also want to know that there is a lifetime warranty on the treadmill frame and motor and one year warranty on parts and labor.

Horizon Fitness T91 Electric Treadmill Review:

Horizon Fitness T91 Electric Treadmill Pros
  • The price of this treadmill is more affordable and competitive than those for treadmills of a similar quality and make.
  • Treadmill is easy to operate, runs quietly and the deck is easy to lift.
  • Lifetime warranty on the frame and motor with in home repair ensures that you can a new motor in case of problems. Value for money given the lifetime warranty.
  • Horizon Fitness T91 electric treadmill also comes with built-in fan and bottle holders.
Horizon Fitness T91 Electric Treadmill Cons
  • Problems with customer service (seems to be the usual!)
  • Not as sturdy as claimed and shock absorption is not that great.
  • Treadmill is easy to fold for storage but too heavy and bulky to be shifted around.
Verdict: Out of 34 reviews, 27 of the reviewers gave the Horizon Fitness T91 Electric Treadmill 5 or 4 stars. That is quite a good feat. If you need an electrical treadmill in the moderate range, this is the treadmill to buy. If you find that the more powerful Bowflex Series 7 Treadmill is too expensive and out of your reach, you can try out this Horizon Fitness T91 Electric Treadmill. But if this mid ranged electric treadmill is also out of your reach, I would then recommend the Merit Fitness Electric Treadmill which is a little less powerful and has lesser features than the Horizon Fitness T91.

Good writeup on the Horizon treadmill. The bowflex is pretty expensive. How does it compare against other Horizon Fitness Treadmills that are out there?
