|
Strong motor |
The 735T features a 2.75HP motor that is above average for treadmills in this price range. |
|
10 mph and 10% incline |
Treadmill has a max 10mph and 10% incline. Although considered a lower pro, still worth mentioning considering the affordable price tag. |
|
Has cushioning, fans, and folding feature |
Although common for treadmills, it's still worth noting that these features are present in this affordable treadmill. |
Cons |

|
Poor parts and labor warranty |
Although the 735T now has a lifetime warranty on top of the lifetime frame warranty, the 90-day parts and motor warranty is still way below average. |
|
Light treadmill |
At 152 lbs, it's very questionable to hold up 275lb users. |
|
Limited programs |
Even though it has more programs than the 715T, electronic programs are not very expensive to produce nowadays. 7 is still below average. |
|
No noise reduction and MP3 support |
Treadmill doesn't have noise reduction, and MP3 support. |
|
Belt plies and roller size unknown |
We give low marks for unknown or unstated features. Not to say that the quality of these features are poor but you have reasons to be cautious if details about these are not disclosed. |
