How long will the BodyCraft T400 last?
The BodyCraft T400 is a sturdy foldable treadmill built with a heavy-duty steel and aluminum that offers commercial grade quality to your in-home or office gym. Weighing in at 260 lbs. you know this frame was built with durability in mind. A light to moderate jogger who weighs less than 350 lbs. will enjoy many years of workout experience on this machine. The warranty covers a lifetime on the frame, 7 years on parts, 3 years on display, and 2 years on labor – not the best offerings in the treadmill world but nothing to sneeze at either considering the generous lifetime frame warranty. Proper maintenance will also extend the longevity of this treadmill.
Brief Overview
The BodyCraft T400 is a great choice for those looking to get serious about their fitness and push themselves harder than ever before. The high definition 9” LCD screen can display all of the data you need with 16 built in programs. On the other hand, if entertainment is a necessary component in your workout routine, then BodyCraft offers optional 10” and 16” smart touch consoles with subsequently higher prices. Both touchscreen options contain 30 built in programs to further improve your workout experiences.
Overall Quality
The BodyCraft T400 has been engineered and designed for those who need the option of a small space-saving treadmill in their home or office. Its quality matches a lot of larger models, which means it can accommodate a more diverse set of users to a greater extent. The 20" x 61” running belt allows you to get the most from your workout with its self-lubricating construction and maintenance free design. The 1” reversible deck prolongs the life of the machine with the option to flip once one side is damaged or worn.
The T400 has a 3.0 HP DC motor which offers smooth operation and speed ranges of up to 11 MPH which is quite suitable for most joggers. It also has an automatic incline of up to 15% allowing for more intense workouts options the higher you push yourself and additional shock absorbers to keep the pain out of your joints when you run. To keep you motivated, all 3 consoles offered on the T400 contain Bluetooth capabilities, audio jacks, dual speakers, and USB power charging capabilities. Finally, a strategically placed fan with 3 speed settings help keep you cool during your sweatiest times. Never disregard an integrated fan, as the devil is in the details, and this is one detail you will ultimately miss.
