 Pathetic customer service if you need helpNov 13, 2007
We bought the T72 a few months ago. We had a used treadmill and decided we were ready to make the investment. Actually putting the thing together was not that easy because the holes did not match up on the hand rests. That aside though, we were ready to get started.
The product worked great for several weeks and then the belt just stopped in the middle of a running workout. The computer kept working, but the belt didn't restart. When the machine was turned off and back on, it started up with no problem.
The same thing happened several more times, so we called customer support only to discover they are only available from 8 till 5. So we sent an email. Several days later we get a response asking us to verify that it is on a "dedicated 20 amp circuit." We have since moved it to 5 different locations with no success.
After another 3 phone calls and 3 different associates with a whole list of failed suggestions, a customer service rep said we might need a new drive motor. Since the part was on backorder, we must not be the only ones with this issue. They said the installation would be easy but that they could send a tech if needed.
The installation was NOT easy, so we called for a rep. (Isn't that why we pay for the warranty?) We were set up with a 4 hour time slot the next day. Three hours into that time slot, we got a call saying the tech couldn't make it. We were told he'd be here somewhere between 8 and 5 the next day.
We are now out countless hours troubleshooting this ourselves, plus several phone calls and emails, and two days of work all to get a treadmill working that has been sitting in our home (paid for and warrantied) for several months.
I would not waste my time on Horizon Fitness. I think that if the product works, you'll have a good experience with the treadmill, but if you need help... you won't find much customer service. I'm not saying this to be hateful; just trying to save other buyers the headache.
 Great productSep 12, 2007
Item was just what I wanted. The only drawback is it is very heavy and hard to get into basement. Get pass that and it is worth the money.

Poor fit and finishFeb 09, 2007
The assembly of this treadmill should not take more than 1/2 hour, but it took me almost one and half hour!!! Why, this is due to the poor fit and finish. They were 3 places I could not get the bolts to fit in no matter how I tried. Another place the bolt fitted in very poorly. I left with 3 bolts for 3 different places that I could not get them to fit in! Fortunately, they are not crucial. The poor alignment of the parts are just terrible!!! I have never encountered anything like this before. There is no way that I was going to pack this monster back for exchange because they were not crucial areas. Besides, what makes you think another one would have a better fit? This is the worst Chinese made product I have bought. I just hope the treadmill is reliable for a few years. Good thing that I bought the extended warranty. I would suggest that you stay away from Horizon products!

wife is happy, I'm happyFeb 02, 2007
This is my first treadmill so I'm no expert but I am satisfied with this treadmill. I did some research before I made the purchase and took the plunge after I got a AMEX Wishlist coupon for Amazon. On the first T72 I recieved, the motor would not run but the electronic board got power. Also the fan did not turn off. So I had to do an exchange, which was a hassle but our 2nd one is up and we are running. Both my wife and I are happy with the 2nd one.
