Product Summary
Costway’s Super Fit 2.25 Horsepower 2 in 1 Folding Treadmill is a basic, compact, lightweight, and easy-to-use folding treadmill that is great for those looking to hit some cardio even in smaller spaces. With two sport modes, the treadmill can be used for walking, jogging, or running. However, with only a 2.25-horsepower motor, it does not support sustained or heavy running.
That said, the five-layer non-slip, shock absorbing running belt provides enough cushioning to help prevent injuries to your joints. Most folding treadmills at this price point do not offer a ton of bells and whistles; however, the Super Fit treadmill does come equipped with a few worth noting: a Bluetooth speaker, remote control, built-in phone holder, and compatible Smart APP to record exercise data.
The LED screen displays exactly what you would expect for an entry level treadmill: time, speed, distance, and calories, which, without a heart rate monitor, is not always accurate, according to several reviews. Still, the display gets the job done and provides some good metrics.
This space-saving treadmill folds to a mere 52 inches by 27 inches by 5 inches, and, since it weighs only 74 pounds, it is very easy to fold, move and store. Choose to keep the riser up and hit speeds up to 12 kilometers per hour or, fold the riser and enjoy a brisk walk up to 4 kilometers per hour. It is important to note that the handlebars do not fold despite what the pictures of the Super Fit portray, so that is something to keep in mind when making the purchase.
