I really need decent cushioning. Would you say this is helpful in that regard? On a scale of 1-10 least to most cushion with NordicTrack probably being the most cushion (right?) Where would you rate this one?
Yep, NordicTrack has the most, so if NordicTrack is a 10, I would say the Horizon 7.8 AT is a 7 or 8, it's not as cushioned as the NordicTrack X32i and X22i treadmills (which are the most cushioned that we've tested) or the NordicTrack 1750 and 2450, but it has nice cushioning that's helpful for your joints.
@@TreadmillReviewGuruid gladly pay more for the NT and was basicslly sold on the x22i until i read the reviews of the companies reliability issues and problems with warranty. I still cant decide! This review is so helpful though!
Hi, I'm enjoying my Horizon too, but want to start programming my own custom programs. I can find the custom setting and program in time incline and speed for segments, but I simply cant work out how to then save the program I've made to use again later. I want to program my own interval aets. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing?🤔
I am currently on the fence between the Horizon 7.8 and the Sole F85. When you say that the 7.8 adjusts quickly, (19 seconds from 1 to 12 mph) how does that compare to the Sole?
Both machines are great! Horizon has some of the fastest speed adjustments of any treadmill on the market which makes them great for HIIT training. Compared to the Sole F85, the Sole F85 takes about 41 seconds to go from 1-12 mph which doesn't make it a great fit for quick intervals. Both treadmills are great but Sole is just a bit slower at the speed adjustments. Let us know if you have any other questions, thanks!
Super timely video! I’m also deciding between the 7.8 and Sole F85. The one thing that is enticing about the F85 is the ability to decline. I really wonder if the decline feature is worth losing out on the faster speed transitions the 7.8 has.
@@deetee2730 I've had the same thought. Especially since the transition won't be from 1 to 12, but more like 5 to 8, so the total time difference won't be as huge.
@@joannemarkov @deetee2730 You're right, the F85 adjusts a little more quickly between speeds that are closer together. I think if you want to do downhill training, the F85 is the way to go. It is definitely still a treadmill that you can do intervals on. If you know you won't use the decline and just want to do interval training then I would go with the 7.8 AT. Let us know if you guys have any more questions!
@@joannemarkov Agreed. The decline feature will be nice. Only other call out is price. The F85 is $400-$500 more and since the tech/larger screen isn’t a huge selling point for me, it’s starting to feel as though that’s the premium I’ll be paying to get the decline function.
Hi! If you were choosing between this treadmill and the matrix T75, which would you choose? Tech & screen aren’t important, we’re mostly looking for sturdiness for long term fast walking and cushioning for knees and back pain. Thank you 😊
If you're wanting a more cushioned deck and aren't concerned about the screen, I would go with the Horizon 7.8 AT. It has softer cushioning than the T75 and we've had our model for years and it still performs really well.
Can someone that owns this model tell me if it will fit through a door once folded up? I know the width is 37" but I'm trying to figure out how wide it would be folded and looking at it from the side. Thanks.
Hi! We recently bought this model from someone on FB marketplace and it did not fit through the door way we had to disassemble the top wide part then with it folded get it out and once we got home assembled the top part back on. It’s two screws on each side and you can disconnect a wire and connect it back once on. Hope that helps
We have only used the 7.8, so I can only speak to our experience using that treadmill for the past 3 years. The 7.8 can handle that well. The 7.4 has a lot of similarities to the 7.8, so it should handle that kind of use just fine, too. Both motors are designed to handle that kind of training.
Just purchased and while quiet at walking speed once running the treadmill has a little more noise like the belt or a cushion feature is maybe misaligned. We called the place where we purchased from and they said it’s because the belt hasn’t fully molded to the rollers and that with use it will get better. Does this sound right?

A comparison between the 7.4 and the 7.8 would be great! Interested in seeing if price difference is worth it
I would like to know as well!!

I am here in Ireland and wondering if they sell them here?
Have you all ever had issues with hitting your knees on the accessory bar?
Nothing like that, but my left hand has occasionally hit the incline adjuster.

@@Its_nylecoj yes it definitely helps. Thanks for the response! Much appreciated.
For someone that is under 150lbs, running about 30 miles a week on a treadmill training for a marathon, would you recommend the 7.8 or 7.4?
We have only used the 7.8, so I can only speak to our experience using that treadmill for the past 3 years. The 7.8 can handle that well. The 7.4 has a lot of similarities to the 7.8, so it should handle that kind of use just fine, too. Both motors are designed to handle that kind of training.
@@TreadmillReviewGuru thanks! Yeah, I was unsure if the higher weight capacity and motor size would materially change things for me.
@@deetee2730 They shouldn't really. Either treadmill should work well for you.

Any issues with the belt slipping? I am around 270 and wondering if I'll have problems with it. Also did the issue you had go away?
