Lightweight yet sturdy, compact but high-performing, the Reebok I Run 4.0 Treadmill is a home treadmill with several cards up its’ sleeve. Coming from the household-name fitness company Reebok, you know this is a treadmill you can trust. Adjusting the speed is done via the buttons just below the display – we would have liked to have seen integrated handlebar controls at this price, but it looks like Reebok opted for a more sleek and simple design for this model. Not a huge issue, but something we thought was worth noting. Reebok offers several treadmill models to choose from when buying a treadmill. Consumers can find the Jet series, the iRun series, and Titanium, amongst others. Depending on their budget, and available space in the home, each consumer will choose a different treadmill. There are several standard features that all Reebok treadmill models provide owners, which distinguish the brand from competitors’ products.

As a worldwide leader in fitness, you can feel confident in knowing their treadmill features solid construction and frame.

Workout variations, speed and incline settings, and fitness app compatibility are some features to look for in a treadmill. If you’re ready to get in shape and increase endurance, a treadmill is a perfect addition to your gym. This is one of the quietest in its class and you can be sure that you won’t have any complaints from the neighbours as you use the Reebok iRun. As you may expect the top speed is a little under what you would get from a fully fixed treadmill (1.5 HP running at a maximum of 13kph) but this should be just about enough for the average user.

Way too often when I would search online for information about treadmills I would only get general information from the brands touting their “perfect” products. What I wanted was real info from real people! As stated earlier in this review the Reebok iRun only has one simple row of buttons for the users to select. This means I was easily able to set my desired speed and program with a few button presses. It makes sense that this is one of the lightest treadmills that we have reviewed due to the requirement of easy storage (weight totalled just under 62 kg). Please don’t think this gives you the ability to go and collect this from your local superstore. If you wanted to do this we always recommend two strong people and a large van, but would always pay the little extra delivery charge if given the option.

It uses an LED display, showing all the key stats. At this price range you won’t get a HD monitor – though you do get plenty of programmes. There are 12 pre-set workouts, plus three target programmes which are designed to get you through the beginner stages.

Additionally, consumers like the quality designs and multiple product lines available from the manufacturer. There’s a treadmill for anyone, regardless of fitness levels. Reebok treadmills aren’t cheap. They do, however, afford owners several great features that set them apart from others.
