Product: Treadmill Elite 507 by Horizon Fitness
FOR:
1) quality built
2) 4.4mm ortophedic belt with spaceous running area
3) easy change of speed and elevation
4) smooth, powerfull and quite motor
5) one of the best space savers considering it's size, when folded only 83x86x188cm,
6) excellent warranty
Against:
1) basic console, it lacks readings in km, it lacks more of advanced features, like recovery mode showing your fitness level, one touch cool down mode, running truck image etc
2) delivered in one very heavy box. If you need to move it upstairs you need 4-5 people to do so (says 6 on the box).
3) according to instructions supplied you should open the box where it is going to be assembled. Be careful, if you turn it on side it will spring open, could be dangerous. I do not understand why manufacturers did not provide removable stoppers to prevent this?
4) price, arguable expensive product
Conclusion:
After all, it is a quality product, worth the money, considering the built and the warranty.
It would be great to be able to upgrade the console in the future...
(note: display can be changed from miles to KM with a switch inside the console, contact CF for details)

This is a truly quality machine with a great spec and a superb warranty. I was looking for a quality treadmill at a reasonable price to compete with a Gym type machine, and this is more than adequate with a really comfortable running deck!
You can control the speed in 4 areas on the machine and this is an ideal machine for either long sustained workouts or shorter fast /interval running! Great service and advice from all the team at Connection, in particular Kevin!
Many thanks!

After much research and with the help and guidance of Connection-Fitness (thanks Kevin) we purchased the Elite 507; we have not been disappointed. This is an excellent treadmill. The running deck is large, stable and very comfortable. The motor is smooth, quiet and had no difficulty in coping with a 20 mile non-stop 2:15 hour session. The help and service from Connection-Fitness was superb; we ordered the treadmill on a Tuesday and it was delivered on Thursday - to Northern Ireland! Buy with confidence.
