adidas Treadmill Review
The adidas T-700 is the newest treadmill in the adidas range and our pick of the line-up. It carries the largest deck adidas makes at 154 x 55 cm, the most incline levels at 18, and a fixed frame built for serious home running. Here is our full assessment of who it suits, where it compromises, and how it compares with its siblings.

What is the adidas T-700?
The adidas T-700 is the new flagship runner in the range, sitting below only the specialist T-800 incline trainer. A 2.5 CHP DC motor (4 HP peak) drives speeds from 0.5 to 20 kph (12.4 mph) across 18 levels of motorised incline, on a 154 x 55 cm fixed deck with a diamond-surface belt and NRG Tech Cushioning. The console pairs an LED display with an interactive rotating dial, 36 programmes and Bluetooth connectivity to Zwift, Kinomap and adidas Console+.
Sweatband lists it against a £2,000 RRP; judge it instead on the £1,199 asking price, which drops to £1,079.10 with the EXTRA10 code. At that money it competes with mid-range folders while out-specifying them everywhere except storage. Our full adidas treadmill range comparison shows how it leads the current five.
Who should buy the adidas T-700?
The T-700 is built for people who run properly at home. The 154 x 55 cm deck is the largest adidas offers and comfortably accommodates tall runners and long strides, the 18 incline levels give the widest hill-training range of any non-specialist machine in the line-up, and the 150 kg user limit with a fixed frame suits multi-runner households. If a treadmill can live permanently in your space, this is the model the rest of the range is measured against.
Design and build quality
Two numbers describe the engineering. The deck is 154 cm long, yet the whole machine is only 171.5 cm, which is unusually efficient packaging: most treadmills with decks this size run well past 180 cm. And the T-700 weighs 116 kg, which together with the fixed frame produces a machine that does not move underneath you at pace.
The diamond-surface belt adds grip over the NRG Tech Cushioning below it, and floor-level adjusters plus transport wheels handle the practicalities. There is no folding of any kind, so the footprint is a permanent commitment.
Console, programmes and connectivity
The LED console with rotating dial control is the same interface philosophy as the T-800: spin for speed or incline, glance at the display for speed, time, distance, calories, heart rate and incline. There are 36 pre-set programmes, integrated Bluetooth speakers, an adjustable tablet holder, two water bottle holders and a USB-C charging port, a small but genuinely modern touch most rivals still lack.
Connectivity covers Zwift, Kinomap and the adidas Console+ companion app over Bluetooth, none requiring a subscription for basic use. Heart rate comes from hand pulse sensors or a Bluetooth chest strap via the built-in wireless receiver, with the strap sold separately.
Performance on the run
The 12.4 mph (20 km/h) top speed covers everything short of specialist sprint work, and the 18 incline levels are the T-700’s signature: finer gradient steps and a higher training ceiling than the 15-level machines below it. The 2.5 CHP continuous rating is honest mid-range rather than exceptional; it holds tempo runs and intervals without complaint, though the T-23’s 4.5 HP brushless unit is on paper the stronger motor. In practice the T-700’s larger deck and finer incline control matter more to most runners than the motor badge.
adidas T-700 vs T-800: which should you buy?
The T-800 costs £600 more at current Sweatband pricing and is a different species: a high-incline trainer with a -6% to 20% range, a Climb Mode reaching 40%, and a 13.7 mph top speed. Choose by training style rather than budget. If your sessions are runs with hills in them, the T-700 does everything at a better price. If your sessions are climbs with running as the warm-up, the T-800 is the only machine in the range that delivers them.

Who should not buy the adidas T-700
Anyone who needs to fold the machine away should choose the T-25. Bargain hunters comfortable without adidas Console+ may prefer the T-23 at £100 less while stock lasts. And extreme-gradient devotees should go straight to the T-800.
Value for money
At £1,079.10 with the code, the T-700 offers a deck size, incline range and connected feature set that mid-market rivals rarely match at the price, and the 25-year frame and 10-year motor warranty, plus Sweatband’s 1-year extended warranty promotion at the time of writing, removes most of the risk of buying a first-year model. The value case is strong; it is simply not the outright steal the run-out T-23 represents while that machine remains in stock.
A new generation, honestly weighed
The T-700 launched in 2026 as part of the new top tier of the adidas range, and newness cuts both ways. The specification and pricing are aggressive, and the machine carries the most modern feature set adidas has offered. Against that, there is no long-term reliability record yet and few owner reviews to lean on. The unusually long structural warranty is the sensible hedge, but buyers who prefer a proven track record have a legitimate reason to wait or to pick the established T-23.
Our overall RunRank is a weighted view across the four pillars, not a flat average. The largest deck in the range, 18 incline levels and modern feature set carry the score; the mid-pack continuous motor rating and the absence of a long-term track record keep it honest. How RunRank works.
- Largest deck in the range at 154 x 55 cm
- 18 levels of power incline, the most of any non-specialist adidas
- Compact 171.5 cm footprint for the deck size

- 25-year frame and 10-year motor warranty, plus 1-year extended promotion
- Does not fold, permanent footprint
- 2.5 CHP continuous rating trails the T-23 motor on paper
- New model with no long-term reliability record yet
- Chest strap for Bluetooth heart rate sold separately

Frequently asked questions
How much does the adidas T-700 cost?
Sweatband sells the T-700 for £1,199 at the time of writing, dropping to £1,079.10 with the EXTRA10 code at checkout, against a listed £2,000 RRP. Codes and prices change regularly, so confirm the live figure at the checkout.
Is the adidas T-700 good for tall runners?
Yes, it is the best in the range for them. The 154 x 55 cm deck is the largest adidas offers, with the length for a long stride and the width for confidence at pace, inside a machine that is still only 171.5 cm long overall.
Does the adidas T-700 fold?
No. The T-700 uses a fixed running deck, which underpins its stability but means a permanent footprint of 171.5 x 85 cm. The T-25 is the folding adidas closest to it in capability.
Does the adidas T-700 work with Zwift?
Yes, over Bluetooth, alongside Kinomap and the adidas Console+ companion app. None of the three requires a subscription for basic use, and the console pairs with Bluetooth 4.0 heart rate monitors via the built-in wireless receiver.
What is the difference between the adidas T-700 and T-23?
The T-700 adds 18 incline levels against 15, a bigger 154 x 55 cm deck, adidas Console+ support, a wireless heart rate receiver and USB-C charging for around £100 more. The T-23 counters with a stronger 4.5 HP brushless motor and the lower price, while stock lasts.
What warranty does the adidas T-700 come with?
Sweatband lists 25 years on the frame, 10 years on the motor and 2 years parts and labour, with a 1-year extended warranty promotion included at the time of writing. Cover is retailer-registered, so confirm the terms at the point of sale.
The verdict
The T-700 is the adidas treadmill to buy if running is the point and the machine can stay put. The deck, the incline range and the feature set lead the range, the packaging is unusually space-efficient for the deck size, and the warranty answers the only reasonable worry about a first-year model. The honest caveats are the mid-pack continuous motor rating and the missing fold. Neither dents the conclusion: as an all-round home runner at £1,079.10 with the code, it is the strongest machine adidas currently makes.
