Repair by Galaxus has rendered the device unusable
Instead of fixing the squeaking noise of the otherwise perfectly functioning and well-maintained device, Galaxus delivered me a completely demolished device after the "repair", with the cover even falling off - for the 2nd time now! And the customer service is not available to solve the problem.
Contra
- Galaxus repair service
Good value for money.
Used for a few months.
Overall, this treadmill is satisfactory for the price. The material is solid and clean, but at the expense of weight. It is a good value for the price. The material is solid and clean, but at the expense of weight. If you plan to store it under a piece of furniture or bed, plan on a minimum height of 15 cm and a little elbow grease.
It is equipped with a retractable and height-adjustable bar with an insert for a shelf or smaller.
A small scrolling LED display on the head of the treadmill shows the speed, elapsed time and distance covered to the nearest 10m. Its small remote control with strap allows you to start/stop, accelerate, decelerate by increments of 0.5 Kmh. At each change made with the remote control, the device emits a very audible beep. At start-up, the treadmill counts down, visible on the display and audible by beeps every second, for 3 seconds before starting to move slowly until it reaches a base speed of 2 Kmh. You can then change the speed via the remote control, or not.
If you leave the treadmill while running, the device stops automatically after a few seconds.
During use, the device is relatively quiet, it depends on the speed set but also the type of shoes you wear, so prefer jogging shoes. The plate under the walking belt is hard and there is no cushioning. Your downstairs neighbours, if any, may not appreciate it if you kick your heel too much.
The only big flaw I found, but it may only be the one I received, is that the tread always shifts too far to the left. I have to center it before each use. But it's still manageable and doesn't prevent the equipment from working properly.Pro

- Performance for sofa athletes (I) ok. Who wants to train properly, must go to more expensive equipment.
- App is a joke
Top price-performance treadmill
I was positively surprised. For this money you can not expect a profile treadmill. Nevertheless, it fulfills its purpose. Up to max. 10km / h you can run, which is already neat. I have it during the lockdowns 3-4 times a week for about 40-60min. Jogging used. Was surprised by the smoothness (not the volume) and how easy the thing is "built". Adjusting the band is pretty easy and also needs to be done once in a while. The app is useless in my opinion, which is actually no matter if you have a sports watch on which you can set "treadmill". Thus, I see there also the approximate distance traveled, which agrees amazingly well with the digital display of the treadmill. If you want the treadmill only as an alternative to outdoor running or fitness center lockdowns, then there is probably nothing better in this price range! A profile treadmill, which is also height adjustable and more sprung, but you should not expect.
