Anyone looking for a budget-friendly treadmill should definitely give Schwinn Fitness 810 a try because it can be a good option for many. It comes with a 2.6 CHP motor, which is better suited for joggers, walkers and occasional runners, but not if you are planning to run a marathon. Anyone who runs frequently should look for a treadmill that has a 3.0 CHP motor because that is more likely to last.
The Workout Experience
When it comes to the Schwinn Fitness 810 treadmill, you will find that at it weighs just 155 pounds and has a weight capacity of 275 pounds. While the standard is usually 300 pounds, this still works. The treadmill does not shake when you are running and while the 20 x 55 inch deck is not the largest in the market, it is still comfortable.
The Display
The dashboard of the Schwinn Fitness 810 treadmill gives you easy-to-read controls, such as incline jump and speed buttons, the traditional start, pause and stop buttons as well as different arrow keys.

It is extremely easy to use and you will have a number of programs to choose from, such as intervals and weight loss. There is a small device holder, along with dual speakers. There is also a fan, which is another plus.
Transportation and Folding
The ‘SoftDrop’ folding system of the Schwinn Fitness 810 treadmill is one of its most outstanding features. A gas shock has been added to ensure the deck does not come down with a bang and cause injuries.

Technology
