Gold's Gym Treadmill Review

Although we do not suggest cheap treadmills under $500, the Gold’s Gym 450 is your best option. Consider this as a budget treadmill with more features. The 450 treadmill is right for walkers or light joggers.

Key Features:

The Gold’s Gym 450 treadmill parts and poor quality are the main drawbacks. 90-day warranty on parts and labor is the shortest warranty length in the market. But most treadmills in this price range have similar warranties.

Its 18 inch belt width is average. Most cheap treadmills offer shorter running areas. If you are walking it should not be much of an issue. However, if you are running at higher speeds, you might want to buy a treadmill with a wider and longer belt.

Important: Don’t be fooled by the 2.5 THP motor. The TOTAL horsepower is the maximum output the motor can run. Continuous on the other hand is the horsepower it can exert without straining. So 2.5 Total horsepower (THP) is equivalent to 1.75 Continuous horsepower (CHP). Keeping the speed low will ensure the motor does not get pushed to its limits.

Affordability and value are the two strong points of the Gold’s Gym 450 treadmill.

Final verdict:

Affordability and value are the two strong points. This is a Best Treadmill Buy for under $500. BUT for $599, the Proform 590T Treadmill is a sure choice!
