If you’re looking to shave off some monthly expenses from your bills, one of the first places that many people look is their gym membership. If you still want to work out, but don’t fancy going for runs outdoors, this might leave you in the market for an at-home treadmill.
So many of these are huge and take up loads of space, so when you see one that’s not quite so chunky it’s definitely worth investigating. That’s exactly how we’d describe the CitySports Treadmill, which you can currently get on Amazon for £189.99, instead of its regular price of £199.99.
For your money, you’ll get a really easy-to-set-up treadmill, one that doesn’t have a huge display or arms by its side, making it easier to store under furniture or in cupboards when you’re not using it. It can easily be controlled with a small remote, to ensure that you still have total control while running.
This is the kind of treadmill suitable for running, jogging and walking. If you wanted to stay active during your at-home desk job, you could set a desk up over it and walk while you work.
You can see how solid the treadmill is by browsing some of the over 2,300 user reviews on its Amazon listing, giving it a 4.3-star rating out of 5. Many of these are super glowing, with people showing off how they’ve been able to get active using the treadmill.
One happy customer wrote: “Transforming my home office into a mini gym with this new addition has been a game-changer. The sleek design and compact size fit effortlessly under my desk, making it incredibly convenient for daily use. I love the near-silent operation, which allows me to take calls and watch TV without any disruptions.”
Another user said: “The treadmill itself is quiet, I do use it in the garage so guessing it would be okay inside. Also great that it is on wheels so you can just move it around anywhere and it isn’t heavy.” Finally, a third customer said: “Perfect for when you can’t get out to the gym.”
However some shoppers have found the product slightly ‘basic’: “The controls are very basic; on, off and speed.” That might mean it’s less detailed than you’d like.
Still, compared to lots of other treadmills, the value offered by CitySports’ option is staggering. Heading to John Lewis, the cheapest treadmill it stocks is the WalkingPad Kingsmith R1 Pro Folding Treadmill at a far more expensive £599. At Argos, meanwhile, you can get the Opti Compact Walking Treadmill for £279.00.
So, for just £143.99 the CitySports Treadmill looks like a superb deal, one that can ensure you have the ability to get real exercise at home, whether it’s walking or jogging. You might want to act fast, too – this limited-time deal might not last forever, and the treadmill’s price could jump back up at any point.
