Fitness Equipment Review
Those familiar with JLL products will know that the ‘T’ in the JLL T450 Folding Treadmill denotes “technology.” This is a step up from the wildly popular T350 (which I’ve also reviewed previously – JLL T350 review).
The T450 is a big, powerful running machine with an 18 km/hour top speed, but it is the app connectivity, display and programmes which make this big mid-budget treadmill well worth the money.
JLL is a well-known name in the UK for exceptional after-sales service and with a fantastic warranty, you know you’re in safe hands: 2 years on parts/labour warranty and 5 years on the motor with a lifetime guarantee on the frame.
So moving on to the treadmill itself.
This is a big piece of equipment, roughly half again as large as many of the smaller-priced versions. Measuring 168cm long by 72cm wide and 133cm tall at the top of the console, this gives you a 127cm x 42cm running area – plenty of room for a safe and comfortable run.
The shock absorbers, which are included by default, cushion your joints from jarring while you run and the engine is no slouch either; a 2.5 horsepower model that reaches 4.5 horsepower when you reach the top speed of 18 km/hour.
That’s a powerful motor and pretty fast for most people.
The JLL T450 Digital Folding Treadmill has 20 levels of incline. This may be varied while you run, adding variety and intensity to your routines whilst helping you stay motivated. It also folds using its hydraulic arm to save space and the maximum user weight is 120 kg, or more than 18 stone.
New Generation Digital Control / USB Interface and Bluetooth
The JLL ‘T’ treadmills are compatible with a wide range of technology standards, including Bluetooth and USB and as such enters the new generation digital control.
You may play music or a podcast through the device’s built-in speakers although this treadmill does not link to 3rd-party applications. This model will allow you to charge your phone or tablet while exercising.
The screen display is informative, you have a series of simple push buttons to control the speed from starting off to peak power and incline and the 20 pre-set programs will keep your routines varied.
A free chest strap is included with the T450. This allows you to monitor your pulse rate, which is displayed. As you gain experience you can use your own pulse rate to adjust your workout.
