Our verdict

Best budget pick for motorized incline walking — not for running.

The cheapest way to get a motorized incline on a 'real' treadmill — on a shorter 45 in belt that suits walking and light jogging.

Ideal for

Incline walkers who want button-controlled hills without paying for a full-size running treadmill.

Skip it if

Runners and anyone over about 6 ft.

In-depth review

What it's like to own

BORGUSI's pitch is simple: a 15% motorized incline and 8.5 mph top speed in a compact, mostly assembled frame that folds with a soft drop. For incline walking, that's a lot of machine for the price range.

The 45.3 × 17.5 in belt is the giveaway that it's not a running treadmill. It's comfortable for brisk walking and short jogs; runners and tall users should look at 50 in+ belts. There's no app, just an LCD, 15 programs and a Bluetooth speaker.

It's sold by a third-party seller with a 1-year parts plan. Owners report responsive support, including help fixing an incline fault.

Pros

  • Motorized incline to 15%
  • Mostly pre-assembled
  • Compact 54 in footprint
  • Responsive seller support

Cons

  • Short 45 in belt
  • Third-party seller
  • 1-year parts coverage

Returned a different brand that wouldn't assemble; this one went together easily and he says look no further.

Four months in, the spacious belt and shock-absorbing deck have exceeded her expectations.

The incline stopped working right after assembly, but BORGUSI support walked him through the fix.
