Pros and cons

According to our treadmill expert

You can connect the treadmill to the Tunturi Routes app for more training options and insight into your results.
Thanks to the maximum incline of 15%, you can train more intensively and simulate hilly landscapes.
After the workout, fold the treadmill to save space.
The treadmill is too big and heavy to lift to a higher floor.
You need at least 2 people to assemble this device, because the assembly is complex.

Description

If you don't feel like walking outside, you can use the Tunturi FitRun 70i. The treadmill has 14 programs that are all based on interval training. If you want more training options, you can download the Tunturi Routes app on your phone or tablet. At a speed of up to 20km/h, you can be sure you reach the right speed for sprints. On the display, you can see the time, distance, and estimated calories burned. Do you prefer to watch a movie while you walk? Thanks to the tablet mount, it's easy to watch stuff on the tablet while you walk. Don't have much space in your room? Fold the treadmill after the workout.

Note: you need at least 2 people to assemble this product yourself when you receive it.

The pure essence of a class treadmill

Comfortable, strong and robust
Very good value for money
Beautiful, simple design
Attention: heavy box, heavy device; you have to be two

I have been using the device for almost three weeks now, and the whole family has already run more than 100 km on it. The children can also handle it perfectly, given the simplicity of the controls.

After all, the Tunturi FitRun series (I have the 70i) is a bit of an outsider at Tunturi; instead of mainly linking more expensive prices to more extensive screens and programs, the choice has been made here to keep the console, operation, and functionality very simple, but to upgrade the treadmill itself. So you get a very wide and long treadmill here for a reasonable price (and that is so easy and safe to use!) with a pretty strong motor (3.5 hp, up to 20 km/h) and a good, automatic incline ( in 15 steps, up to about 5° total slope if I measured it correctly). That incline is a bonus, because according to research, a treadmill runs about the same as walking outdoors on a 2° incline, and that corresponds to step 4 or 5 on this machine (I set it to 5; just to be sure :) ) .

As mentioned, the operation is very simplistic, just like the information provided. You have four displays: one for kcal or incline (the incline is only visible during and just after you change it), one for time, one for distance, and one for speed. The time measurement is in minutes and seconds up to one hour, and then in hours and minutes. So if you walk longer, you only have minute resolution. The clock runs (as someone else pointed out) a bit slow. I've checked it a few times with my smartwatch, and the Tunturi loses about 30 seconds in an hour. That's not dramatic, of course, but it's there. The programs are very limited, but I don't use those things. For me it's long-distance running, and I set everything manually. There's bluetooth for pairing with apps like Kinomaps, but I haven't even tried that; am not a fan of it.

There is a central tablet or phone holder that exposes the four displays of the device, and it also works well, although it is recommended to cover premium tablets or phones (with metal or glass backs and/or bottoms), otherwise they may go for a quick walk. After all, they are on a plastic edge, against the plastic of the console, and that has little grip on its own. I've also noticed that when the incline is at 0 degrees, tablets sometimes venture to the left (say, an inch every few minutes), but this stops once the incline is used. This is because at an inclination of 0° the device really 'springs' at the front (which is fine for shock absorption), and that movement is slightly passed on to the console. As soon as a slope is used, that spring movement is gone, and the tablet remains standing. I think I'll stick another strip of non-slip to the tablet ledge; that will probably also solve the sliding without slope.

It is also important to recognize that a treadmill does require some light maintenance, especially one that is used more intensively. My device, for example, started beeping after a week (and about 50 km). That was quickly solved with a can of silicone spray from the hardware store: I just lifted the treadmill, and lubricated all visible nuts and bolts, and that immediately solved the problem. So keep in mind that such a can of silicone spray is really useful for fitness equipment. Of course, the treadmill itself should also be regularly lubricated with a thicker silicone oil (so not from the spray can!), but you can buy it in bulk (e.g. 500 ml) for a reasonable price (between 20 and 40 euros, depending on brand and place where you buy them). With 500 ml you can easily last a year with intensive use. In any case, there is a canister with 20 ml of silicone oil near the treadmill to bridge the first weeks.

Attention on delivery: the device is heavy (see also description), and it is actually impossible to move the box alone, or to take the device out of the box alone. It is doable with two. Also be careful: the front, where the engine is, is much heavier than the rear; this is also neatly indicated on the box! Assembly was dead simple. Clear instructions, and just tighten some screws. Just pay attention at the end: there is a steel cable that anchors the treadmill to the chassis (for transport safety) that you also have to loosen. It is neatly stated in the manual, but important, of course.

In summary: the Tunturi FitRun 70i is an excellent treadmill if you want to run hard and a lot, have no problem with somewhat limited programs, and all modern bells and whistles can be stolen from you. If, on the other hand, you want a device with dozens of built-in programs and adjustable color displays, you better look at something else. But then you pay half the price before you have the same specifications for the treadmill itself.

great and not expensive

Manual guidance is handy but not really necessary, is self-explanatory
Practicing inside is an advantage, no questions like outside.
Can practice whenever I want and as often as I want.

My right leg was recently amputated and now I can practice in private without comments. I was introduced to a treadmill at the Radboud hospital and immediately decided to buy one. Now I can walk if I want to.

stable and solid treadmill for home use

makes a firm and stable impression
runs smoothly and or, no abrupt movements
bluetooth connection with smartphone/tablet or heart rate monitor
3 men needed to get up the stairs

installation was a chore because as with all treadmills the weight is on one side, installation is very simple, a few screws and plugs and ready, tools are included, instructions are clear a self-adhesive silicone mat smartphone 'holder' is included but without instructions, you have to stick it under the display with the non-ribbed piece folded on the horizontal carrier, sticks quite well Lubricating the tire with the supplied oil pump and extension goes quite well, only you pull the extension off too easily so be careful when withdrawing the hose, because of the oil it sticks the control panel is mounted on the supporting frame so that it hardly moves when walking, you can place an ipad in the holder, it will not walk 2 cup holders where you can also put a radio or smartphone it starts and stops smoothly with no jerks or surprises enough choices in the programs worked directly with my polar heart rate monitor, there is also a built-in meter in the transverse bar but you have to hold it continuously you don't have to set anything for it, detection is automatic you can download the anyrun app (from manufacturer OMA) for free and it worked immediately, with this you can control the band via tablet or phone, it also contains some standard programs i also tried the kinomap app, it can control the treadmill according to the chosen trajectory that you also follow on video, great but affordable, it only has a few free routes in it, also follows the slopes of the route the folding goes very well, not much force needed, folding it back is just pressing the mechanism with your foot and it folds down slowly
