BodyGuard T240S Treadmill Review

Bodyguard T240S Treadmill Review

The Bodyguard T240S treadmill is a space-saver machine that offers ease of use, quality performance, and great warranty. Although manufactured in China, the quality of this treadmill can still compete with most US made machines.

Classified as a mid-level machine, this model offers a simplistic design for long-lasting use. Being the cheapest in the Bodyguard line, expect to find common features for starters.

Is It For You?

If you are looking for a space-efficient machine that is easy to use, operate, and store, you have a good bet with the Bodyguard T240S treadmill. Packed with features that provide convenient training, this machine is something to consider.

What You’ll Get:

Built with a 2.75 HP continuous duty motor, the Bodyguard T240S treadmill has enough power to withstand regular trainings. Together with a speed range of 0.5 to 10 miles per hour and an incline range of up to 15%, you have a variety of uphill routes to choose from.

It also comes with a tread belt that measures 20 x 54 inches. This belt is actually a little small compared to other treadmills in this price range. But there is also the BDS cushioning system, which supports your feet with every stride you make, easing up the stress and minimizing any lateral movement. This cushioning feature somewhat makes up for the small running surface to give users a better running experience.

Featuring an LED mono-colored display with a 12-digit scrolling screen, the machine shows the necessary information about your workout, including your speed, incline, time, distance, and heart rate. And for a softer, easier operation, the keys are made of silicone material. In addition, you may set the language as English, French, or Spanish, according to your preference.

There are 5 workout programs available in the Bodyguard T240S treadmill. Although this is quite limited, if you are not so much of a flexible runner, this should be enough for you.

Weaknesses:

The treadmill is quite expensive for the feature it presents. Although parts are durable, design is sleek, and motor has decent power, the features are quite basic. For its price, it doesn’t really give a big “bang” to potential users.

Also, the 5 preset workout programs may not be sufficient enough, especially if you want variety in your workout. Most mid-level treadmills offer 7 at the least. 5 programs are just too little for options.

Recommendations:

The features of the Bodyguard T240S treadmill are familiar. You might have seen it from other models and other brands. Hence, if you find one that is cheaper, but offers the same features, performance, and warranty program, might as well grab that other one. (Visit our best treadmill page)
