I did not fully investigate the ability to set your own workout plan but the option is available should you require that level of flexibility. As you can imagine from a budget treadmill it has all the essential features over and above what you may expect. There were no faults with the clear LCD display or the various buttons that control the speed and include of the treadmill.

The bike is now in daily use by two of us. We find it smooth when cycling and it is helpful to have the display showing distance, heart rate, calories used, recovery etc.It does have some useful features such as calorie counter, heart rate, 3 target programmes and 3 pre-set programmes but certainly nothing more than you’d find on other machines costing much less. When you start using your treadmill, you may need to adjust the running belt for the first few weeks. All running belts are correctly set at the time of production although it might stretch or misalign during transit. Stretching is quite normal and should be expected during the normal break-in period. You can manually control your speed and incline as you like and once you know what you enjoy, use the shortcut buttons on the top layer. The top layer of buttons will automate your workout.

FAQ's It comes with MP3 connectivity, Bluetooth 4.0 compatibility, built-in speakers & microphone, and a place to securely hold your phone or tablet. Turn your mobile phone’s Bluetooth and connect it with your treadmill; then you can play your mobile phone music and adjust the volume. Press the central Bluetooth Key on the console to answer incoming calls and press it again to end the call.

The ability to play your music through the built in speakers is nice but again the quality is not as good as some of the other budget treadmills in this category. Also using Bluetooth to play music just seems like old technology, it eats your battery life and just makes things more complicated than plugging in a simple male to male audio cable.
