I'm a happy customer so far!
on October 22, 2020
Posted by: krystlerb
So I was excited about the treadmill and all of the features at such a good price. I was terrified after reading the reviews for shipping/delivery. I'm happy to report that that both experiences went absolutely fine! The treadmill came about a week after I ordered and the shipping company called and delivered promptly to my garage wearing masks. Putting it together is so well explained--but I DEFINITELY needed help getting it into my house, and there is a LOT of packaging and miscellaneous stuff to clear out before you get to the actual parts.
So far, the treadmill is running great and I like the kick button raise and fold. It's sturdy and it is quiet when in operation. The Bluetooth is great, but the only con that I currently have is that the the Bluetooth speakers are not volume adjustable. It can only be controlled by the volume on your device. Other than that, it's a solid treadmill thus far!

Nothing but problems
on December 23, 2020
Posted by: Janice W.
I was really excited to get my new treadmill. I had problems from the beginning. The control panel was defective so I had to get a new one sent out. They were great about that. Now, the new one is doing the same thing. It just beeps and I can’t start the treadmill. I’m not near a repair place, I was told that the closest repair person is over 400 miles away. I now have a treadmill that is useless taking up space. I wish I’d never spent my money.

Functional Treadmill, but really missing some basic items
on December 28, 2020
Posted by: Michael T.
Most important part first: This is a functioning treadmill. I'm not an avid runner (~2.5mi, ~3-4 times per week), but it does the trick.
However, this treadmill just missed on some basic functionality. The screen looks like it's 10 years old - entry level printers and thermostats have touch screens these days, I'm shocked at the basic screen this has. Additionally, there is some basic functionality missing - no place on the display does it actually tell you what your pace (In Minutes / mile units) is - you can see 6.0mph, but not 10 min mile - small oversights like this are everywhere and just seem like a lack of good design that is separate from it being a budget treadmill. Finally, the bed is a reasonable width, but it's advertised at 20" and it's not - it's closer to 18.5".
You won't get a lemon from this treadmill, but I'd consider other options in this price range before getting this one.

A good basic treadmill (T202)
on January 21, 2021
Posted by: okhil
Solid big running area. It feels sturdy. All the required functions for a treadmill are available. I could not find any apps that can sync with the machine, although it says "sync with most popular fitness apps" on the console.

So sad!!!
on January 23, 2021
Posted by: Huat
I bought this treadmill T202 from local retailer at the of June 2020, I only WALK at speed 3.8 for about 1 hour and 15 minutes each day, 6 days per week; a motor burned out exactly 6 months and 2 days later. They replaced the same motor less than 2 weeks ago and 5 days later, I smell electrical burning again after 60 minutes walk! I contacted the retailer again, they told me maybe I need a better and bigger machine for what I am doing! They have contacted manufacturer and awaiting for their response. It's so sad!!! I am only weight 182 lbs, the machine capacity is 325 lbs, so I can't be too heavy for this machine to handle.

Very happy with this purchase
on February 5, 2021
Posted by: Kate
Bought this in early December and disappointed that I didn't get it until a month later (especially after reading how quickly others received theirs). Set up was easier than we thought it would be.
Fairly quiet and runs smooth. Not a huge fan of the speakers but I prefer to listen to my music through my airpods anyway.

OUTDATED Bluetooth Functionality & Fitness App
on March 7, 2021
Posted by: CDavis
I am unable to connect my phone's Bluetooth to the Horizon T202 treadmill . When I try to connect , it tells me I need an app. The app guide that comes with this model is the 'AFG SPORT' app. According to Horizon, that app is ONLY compatible with the Horizon 7.0 models and will NOT connect to the T202 model using a mobile device.The recommended app for the T202, based on all that I have researched online is the 'AFG CONNECTED FITNESS,'- which outdated and does NOT work on modern devices.( see attached).
So the simple question is , what is the recommended fitness app for the Horizon T202 and what fitness app are current Horizon T202 users using to track work out sessions on their mobile devices?
All I am trying to here is track my workout sessions on an app using my andriod phone.
If the T202 is really not compatible with any fitness app on a mobile device, someone needs to state that prior to a sale.
AND YOU ROUTINELY GET SHOCKED WITH STATIC!

Great treadmill for the money
on May 1, 2021
Posted by: Mike
Powerful. No lagging or belt slipping. Great for jogging or running. Only 2 complaints- the fan is useless. They should have skipped the bluetooth speakers and installed a decent fan for that price. And the belt is a little bit squeaky even after adding the silicone regularly. They could have easily fixed these couple of things and made a perfect treadmill- maybe you have to get the 303 not the 202 for perfection?
