There are some good deals out there on treadmills and the Horizon T93 treadmill is one of them. It competes in the very competitive $1,000 price range.

Tolerating lots of use from power walkers and light joggers, this treadmill has a 2.5 hp continuous-duty motor. Just be sure to watch out for the maximum weight limit. The manufacturer states that this machine can handle up to 325 pounds, but it probably will not stand up to that much weight for long. This treadmill probably should not be used for users who weigh more than 230 pounds.

The Horizon T93 treadmill comes with 14 workout programs. This allows you to vary your workouts, which is quite a choice of programs for a treadmill in this category. You can can constantly switch up your routine and never become bored.

Features:

Nice-looking console with LCD displays: Even though the LC D windows are not quite as high quality as LED displays, they get the job done and the displays are backlit in blue to make them easy on the eyes.

Fan: This feature is built right into the console and is aimed just right to keep your body cool and comfortable during your workouts.

iPod deck and built-in speakers: Listen to your favorite tunes to keep your workout more fun with the convenience of the iPod deck and built-in speakers. You will not have to wear headphone due to the location of the speakers in the console. This feature is a huge asset for mothers who need to tune into their babies and small children.

2.5 hp continuous-duty motor: This motor is adequate for power walking and light jogging, and it is the same size motor that comes on some of the more expensive Horizon treadmills. Also, it comes with a lifetime warranty, which is a huge plus.

20″ x 55″ running surface: The running surface is large enough to accommodate the strides of most people. For those extra tall individuals, however, you would likely be more comfortable on a larger running surface.

Adjustable cushioning: Just the right amount of shock absorption and support for your personal comfort and safety is what you will get on this machine.

Sturdy frame: As with the motor, the frame comes with a lifetime warranty. The frame is fairly heavy for a folding treadmill and remains reasonably steady during a workout.

Speed capacity up to 12 mph and incline capacity up to 12%: You can easily adjust your speed and incline levels, simply by using the quick keys on the console,

Contact heart rate grips: This added feature allows you to monitor your heart rate during your workout and adjust the intensity levels accordingly, resulting in getting an optimum workout as you get closer to achieving your fitness goals. This feature is not as convenient as a wireless heart rate control, but it works just as well.

Folds for easy storage: If you are limited on space, no need to worry. The Horizon T93 treadmill is perfect for those who have limited space, since it will fold right up.

For what you pay for the Horizon T93, it is is a decent product and is suitable to meet the requirements of the average user. Just keep in mind, that this is treadmill geared towards walking or moderate jogging. If you have multiple users or are a serious athlete you probably will want to upgrade.
