BodyCraft T1000 Treadmill Review

How long will the BodyCraft T1000 last?

The BodyCraft T1000 is built from steel and aluminum and has an assembled weight of 340 lbs. A 500 lb. weight capacity allows even the most heavily muscled user the ability to experience this higher end treadmill. In addition, BodyCraft offers both a commercial and residential warranty with the residential warranty covering a generous lifetime on the frame, 10 years on parts, 3 years on display, and 2 years on labor. A moderate to heavy jogger should get more than a few years of service from this machine with proper maintenance – keep in mind maintenance free does not necessarily mean maintenance free.

Brief Overview

The T1000 is a top model in the BodyCraft line. It offers a large, non-folding footprint meaning it needs its own dedicated personal space and cannot be easily moved even though it boasts transport wheels. The basic T1000 comes with a high definition 9” LCD screen, but there are options for either a 10” or 16” smart touch console if entertainment is a necessary requirement in your workout regimen. All three consoles offer GEMCONNECT Bluetooth / ANT+ Technology which allows the processing and communicating of treadmill data.

Overall Quality

The BodyCraft T1000 treadmill is an exercise machine that can be used for both home and commercial alike. A great part about the treadmill's design is that it has a 1” thick reversible deck which means that either side can be used extending the life expectancy of this machine. To make the workout experience even better, the manufacturers have installed a 5.0HP AC drive motor which ensures smooth performance and a speed range between 0.5-13mph. It also has solid aluminum sidestep rails that are oversized for maximum stepping purposes, plus offering stability to the overall design.
The T1000 is designed with a roomy fit-most-sizes 22” x 62” running belt that is self-lubricating and maintenance free. The treadmill can incline up to a 15% grade, offering steep options for a more intense workout experience. It also has a USB phone charger, 3 speed settings for the fan, and an audio jack. The T1000 also comes equipped with hand pulse grips so you have the option of checking your heart rate whenever you need by grabbing the custom molded soft-touch handrails.
