Conclusion Horizon CT81 Treadmill review

What we like especially at this model is the motor. Is not the motor power but the fact that is very quiet. Surprisingly quiet for an entry level treadmill.

For this price range the CT81 model has all you need: 8 built in training workouts, pulse rate and fan. These features are enough for most of the home users that are not looking to run into a marathon.

We wished that this treadmill had a more power motor (a 2.5 Chp one will be nice) and a longer belt to accommodate tall persons. Also the built in fan is very nice but it doesn’t have enough power and the direction is not adjustable.

Overall the Horizon CT81 Treadmill is a good entry level machine with some nice features and built in workouts. If you are a heavy runner or a serious trainer we recommend looking for a better & expensive machine.
