Brand guide / Reebok
Reebok is one of the most searched treadmill brands in the UK, and one of the few that covers the whole market, from a sub-£500 folding machine right up to a near-commercial runner at close to £1,500. The build and cushioning have improved sharply in recent years, and the warranty on most models is among the best in the business. We have reviewed and ranked the full current range with our RunRank system so you can see at a glance which Reebok fits your space, your budget and how hard you actually plan to run.

The Reebok range, reviewed
Reebok Jet 100z
From £429Folds · 2.0 HP · 11 mph (18 km/h) · 12 incline levels · 130 x 43 cm deck
The cheapest route to Reebok’s Air Motion cushioning, which is genuinely kinder on the joints than the GT40z’s One Series blocks. The catch is a narrow 43 cm deck that feels tight above a jog, which is why it scores below the similarly priced GT40z. Stock has also become patchy at the major UK stockists, so check availability before counting on it.
We do not earn commission on the Jet 100z; this links to Reebok for reference only.
Reebok i-Run 5.0
From £499Folds · 2.0 HP · 9.3 mph (15 km/h) · 12 incline levels
The cheapest way into Reebok with a powered incline. A compact folding machine reaching 9.3 mph (15 km/h) with 12 incline levels and Zwift and Kinomap support, built for walkers and beginners who want a recognised brand without the outlay. The closest Reebok comes to a budget incline trainer.
Reebok GT40z (Upgraded)
From £549 £599Folds · 2.0 HP · 11.2 mph (18 km/h) · 12 incline levels · 130 x 45 cm deck
Reebok’s entry point, and a proper treadmill rather than a badged walking pad. A 2.0 HP motor to 11.2 mph (18 km/h), 12 powered incline levels and Zwift and Kinomap support, with a 10-year frame and motor warranty most rivals cannot match. The 130 x 45 cm deck is tight for fast running, but for walking, incline work and light jogging it is hard to beat at the price.
Reebok Jet 200
From £799Folds · 2.25 HP · 11.2 mph (18 km/h) · 15 incline levels · 140 x 46 cm deck
The step up that fixes the entry models’ limits: a 2.25 HP motor, a roomier 140 x 46 cm deck, 15 incline levels and soft Air Motion cushioning over eight pods. A comfortable folding machine for beginners and returning runners who want more deck and incline than the budget tier offers.
Reebok FR20z Floatride
From £799Fixed deck · 2.25 HP · 11 mph (18 km/h) · 15 incline levels · 140 x 46 cm deck
The affordable way into Reebok’s Floatride+ cushioning, the same system as the FR30z. A fixed, non-folding deck gives gym-like stability and quiet running, with dual Zwift and Kinomap support that rivals at this price rarely match. You lose folding, a fan and USB charging versus the FR30z, but the running feel is most of the way there.
Reebok SL8.0
£879 £1,750Fixed deck · 3.0 HP DC · 12.4 mph (20 km/h) · 18 incline levels · 152 x 52 cm deck
The bargain wildcard. At its long-running sale price it offers the biggest deck, steepest 18-level incline and a 150 kg user limit, often beating dearer models on paper. The DC motor is louder than the Floatride machines and it does not fold, but for sheer specification per pound on sale it is hard to ignore. Stock is thinning, so check availability.
Reebok Jet 300
From £899Folds · 2.5 HP · 12.4 mph (20 km/h) · 15 incline levels · 150 x 51 cm deck
The best folding Reebok for actual running. A 2.5 HP motor to 12.4 mph (20 km/h), a spacious 150 x 51 cm deck and a 140 kg user limit, all in a soft-drop folding frame. The all-rounder most runners who still need to reclaim their floor space should buy.
Reebok FR30z Floatride
From £899 £999Fixed deck · 4.0 HP · 12.4 mph (20 km/h) · 15 incline levels · 150 x 51 cm deck
Reebok’s best home runner under £1,000. A strong, quiet 4.0 HP eco-Kinetic motor, a fixed 150 x 51 cm deck, premium Floatride+ cushioning and a 150 kg user limit give it a near-commercial feel. It needs permanent space, but if you run seriously it is the pick of the range short of the Z-Tech.
Reebok Z-Tech AC
From £1,299 £1,499Fixed deck · 5.0 HP AC · 12.4 mph (20 km/h) · 18 incline levels · 154 x 55 cm deck
The closest thing to a commercial gym treadmill with a Reebok badge. The only AC motor in the range (3.0 CHP, 5.0 HP peak) drives a 154 x 55 cm deck with 18 incline levels, Energy Transfer cushioning and a self-lubricating belt. Overkill for most, essential for heavy, daily runners who have the space and budget.
About Reebok treadmills
Reebok has built home fitness equipment for years, and while older machines had a mixed reputation under third-party licence manufacturing, the current range is a genuine step up. The Floatride series and the Jet 300 in particular hold their own against far pricier rivals on build and cushioning.
Three things set Reebok apart in the UK. First, warranty: most current models carry a long frame and motor guarantee with no registration deadline, where NordicTrack and ProForm drop you to basic 12-month cover unless you register within 28 days. Second, no subscription lock-in: every Reebok works fully in manual mode and pairs with Zwift and Kinomap rather than a single paid ecosystem. Third, UK support: a dedicated helpline and online chat rather than an overseas call centre.
Where to buy: Reebok treadmills are sold through Sweatband, Amazon, Argos, Currys, Sports Direct and the official Reebok Fitness Equipment site. Prices move a lot with sales, so it pays to check a few. For the heavier fixed-deck machines, Sweatband’s free two-man delivery to your room of choice is worth having, and finance options such as DivideBuy are available there too.
Which Reebok treadmill should you buy?
Nine models is a lot to weigh up. Here is the short version, with prices approximate and subject to sales.
- Tight budget, mainly walking? The GT40z covers the basics with connectivity and a strong warranty, or the i-Run 5.0 if you want a powered incline for less.
- First treadmill, cushioning matters most? The Jet 100z brings Air Motion cushioning, best value on sale below £450, though stock can be hard to find.
- Beginner runner worried about joints? The Jet 200 has the softest cushioning and a generous incline.
- Want the biggest specs for the least money? The SL8.0 on sale, if the discount is still live and stock holds.
- Folding all-rounder for real running? The Jet 300 is the best folding machine in the range.
- Gym-quality stability with space to spare? The FR30z Floatride is the top under-£1,000 runner, or the FR20z for the same feel on a smaller budget.
- Near-commercial performance and heavy daily use? The Z-Tech AC, the only machine here with an AC motor.
Reebok treadmill warranty
Reebok’s warranty is a real selling point, but it does vary by model, so it is worth knowing exactly what you get. The GT40z carries a 10-year frame and 10-year motor warranty. The Jet 200, Jet 300 and FR30z step up to a lifetime frame and 10-year motor warranty. All come with two years of parts and labour, and crucially there is no registration deadline, cover starts from the date of purchase.
Worth knowing. The flagship Z-Tech AC is listed by major UK retailers with two years of parts and labour but without the extended frame and motor cover the cheaper models enjoy. The AC motor is inherently more durable, but at this price the shorter written warranty is worth raising with the retailer, and third-party breakdown cover is worth considering.
Reebok vs other treadmill brands
Reebok competes hardest in the £500 to £1,500 bracket, where its no-subscription approach, easy warranty and UK support do a lot of the work. Against NordicTrack and ProForm, Reebok loses on guided iFIT classes and auto-adjusting workouts but wins on warranty simplicity and the freedom to run without a paid ecosystem. Against Domyos (Decathlon), Reebok generally offers more motor power, bigger decks and better cushioning, while Domyos wins on zero-assembly convenience and in-store support.
Against JTX, the two trade blows: JTX is excellent for compact, durable UK folding machines, while Reebok counters with connectivity and that standout warranty. Horizon is the reliable, quiet, no-subscription alternative, strong on value. At the heavy-duty end, Sole focuses on longevity and high weight limits with fewer features, and Technogym sits in premium gym-grade territory at a much higher price. In short, choose NordicTrack or ProForm for immersive classes, Domyos for convenience, Technogym for luxury, and Reebok if you want a well-warrantied, subscription-free machine with solid cushioning.
Reebok discontinued models and alternatives
Reebok has refreshed its range in recent years, retiring older models in favour of the Jet (folding, connected), Floatride (fixed-deck premium), SL8.0 (bargain fixed) and Z-Tech (commercial-grade) lines.

Frequently asked questions
Are Reebok treadmills any good?
Yes. The current Jet, Floatride and Z-Tech lines are genuinely competitive. Older licensed models were patchy, but the modern range has strong build quality, good cushioning in Air Motion and Floatride+, quiet motors and one of the easier warranties in the UK market. The GT40z, Jet 300, FR30z and Z-Tech AC all earn solid RunRank scores in our reviews.
Which Reebok treadmill is best for running?
For serious runners, the FR30z Floatride (fixed deck, 4.0 HP eco-Kinetic motor) or the Z-Tech AC (commercial AC motor for heavy daily use). If you need a machine that folds away, the Jet 300 is the best running-capable folder. All three reach 20 km/h with large decks and at least 15 incline levels.
Do Reebok treadmills need a subscription?
No. Every model works fully in manual mode with no subscription. Zwift and Kinomap are supported on most via Bluetooth and often come with a free trial, but there is no Reebok or iFIT-style paywall for the core features.
What is the difference between AC and DC treadmill motors?
DC motors, used on most home treadmills including the GT40z and Jet range, are lighter, cheaper and fine for regular use. The AC motor on the Z-Tech AC is the type found in commercial gym machines: it runs cooler under sustained load, holds power more consistently and lasts longer under heavy daily use. It is the only AC motor in the Reebok range.
What is Floatride+ cushioning?
Floatride+ is Reebok’s premium cushioning, adapted from its running shoes and used on the FR20z and FR30z. It places zoned cushioning along the deck to soften the landing and firm up at push-off, giving a more responsive, energised feel than the softer Air Motion in the Jet models or the uniform SubLite layer in the SL8.0.
Can I fold a Reebok Floatride treadmill?
No. The FR20z, FR30z, SL8.0 and Z-Tech AC have fixed, non-folding decks for maximum rigidity and a gym-like feel. The folding options are in the Jet series and the GT40z and i-Run 5.0, all with soft-drop mechanisms for easy storage.
Why is the SL8.0 so cheap right now?
It carries a high RRP of around £1,750 but is widely discounted to roughly £879 as Reebok positions the Z-Tech as its premium flagship. For the big deck, 18 incline levels and 150 kg limit, it is excellent value while the sale holds, but stock is getting harder to find, so check current pricing before counting on it.
Is the Reebok i-Run still available?
The current i-Run 5.0 is still sold, covered in the range above, with a powered incline and app support. The older i-Run models (such as the i-Run 4.0 and the original i-Walk) are discontinued and found only used or for parts. If you own an older one, the i-Run 5.0 or GT40z are the natural upgrades.
Where can I buy a Reebok treadmill in the UK?
Sweatband, Amazon, Argos, Currys, Sports Direct and the official Reebok Fitness Equipment site. Prices fluctuate with sales, so it is worth comparing. Sweatband and Currys typically offer interest-free or instalment finance, and Sweatband includes free two-man delivery to your room of choice, which is handy for the heavier fixed-deck machines.
