Great connectivity treadmill

Love the treadmill and the accessibility to my apps especially peloton app. I just wish that the treadmill wasn’t so bulky for my small space. However I do love the length because I have such a long stride.
The 7.0 AT Treadmill does the basics well: runs at different speeds at different elevations. The heart rate sensors do not work, showing random numbers. The app is useless as it doesn't retain history of workouts and doesn't do anything with the data. The customer / technical support did not respond about the heart rate sensors problem.
I'm impressed with the quality of this treadmill! As far as improvements, I would appreciate it if it had the ability to store information of each workout - it asks you to select user, but doesn't store user information. I'm sure the newer models will have this feature. I have had this treadmill for 2 months, and already have 226 miles on it.
I have really enjoyed this treadmill overall. My most favorite aspect is that the motor is SO quiet, which is a huge improvement from my previous noisy monstrosity. It's a good size, it's functional, nice set-up for a tablet plus water or other items I like to have on hand. The speakers aren't great (they're fine), but I usually use earbuds anyway.
One thing I'm disappointed in is the presets, which I was looking forward to using, particularly the fat burn which presets different inclines and speeds. It is useless because the speeds are truly bizarre. Level 1, the speeds range from .5mph (literal crawling speed) to 4mph (a nice jog). Level 10 starts at a 1.4mph (not even ambling) to 8mph (full on sprint). But if I raise the ridiculously slow speeds to a walking pace, the jog/run/sprint speeds increase commensurately. Upping .5 to 3 in level 1 means my nice jog pace becomes a sprint. I have to do so much pace adjusting that it's just easier to set it to Manual and adjust it myself rather than using the presets. Not a huge thing all told, but I was looking forward to having my runs guided by a pace standard. Ah well.
Overall, I am very happy with this purchase and I would recommend it.
I have really enjoyed this machine. I love the knobs in the front as they make it so easy to increase/decrease my speed and incline during my workouts. I also love the tablet holder that allows me to stream peloton and ifit workouts. This has been a great tread at a great price.
