Cons:

• The T600’s engine can provide a continuous power of up to 2.5 hp, but you can find other treadmills in the same price range that offer more speed.
• The space for the phone holder is on the console, below the LED screen, which can be quite inconvenient when using buttons.
• The handlebars on the York T600 treadmill are pretty thin, so they don’t seem as stable as on other models.

York T600 Treadmill: In-Depth Review

Although the York T600 treadmill has a lower price than most similar treadmills, it still offers multiple positive features with minimal drawbacks.

Here are the features of the York T600 that make it stand out from others.

Dimensions

The T600 is among the smallest York treadmills available. Its dimensions are 128 cm in height, 65 cm in width, and 153 cm in length. In combination with its low weight of approximately 70 kg and practical design, this model is one of the most compact models you can find.

Therefore, it’s undoubtedly a perfect choice if you want to have a practical treadmill in the comfort of your home but save some space in your room. And you can put it away much easier and faster.

Console

The York T600 console has a slick-looking LED display with the following well-coordinated buttons that you can see below the display:

• M: It lets you choose the preferred mode. The available modes are the normal mode, the distance countdown mode, and the calorie countdown mode. This button can also serve as a reset option when using one of the 36 automatic training programs.
• P: This button represents programs. You can select from P0, which lets you choose one of the three USER programs.
• Start: As the name implies, this lets you start the treadmill, but you can also use it to pause it if it’s activated.
• Stop: It lets you slowly stop the treadmill.
• Plus Sign: You can use the ’’+’’ button to increase the speed or select the preferred parameters when setting up programs.
• Minus Sign: You can use the “-“ button to decrease the speed or choose the preferred parameters when setting up programs.

Also, multiple other statistic trackers are available in the middle of the screen. These trackers include distance, pulse, calories burned, and speed.

Portability

Compared to most other treadmills, the York T600 treadmill has built-in wheels for transportation, making it easier to move around. Hence, all you need to do is disconnect the treadmill from the power socket, fold the running deck, and move it.

Deck

The running deck of York’s T600 model has an area of 120 cm in length and 40 cm in width, providing a decent space. Besides being soft and foldable, the running deck also comes with True Cushion suspension technology.

Since stability is a crucial factor when choosing a treadmill, the True Cushion suspension provides a great way to drastically reduce the shock impact of running compared to outside surfaces.

Motor

The York T600 treadmill uses a high torque motor of 1.25 hp, with a maximum of 2.5 hp. You can increase the speed up to 13 km/h. Although this lightweight motor provides decent power, you can find much stronger treadmills.

However, the continuous power motor on T600 can still offer a challenging running speed without being loud. Hence, you don’t need to worry about making too much noise while running indoors.

Workout Programs

Unlike other treadmills in this price range or even more expensive ones, this treadmill has considerably more workout programs. In fact, it boasts 36 pre-set programs.

There are also three USER programs that you can set up for easy use, so you don’t have to set up programs every time you’re running.

In addition, the York T600 treadmill offers a BMI program. This program lets you set specific parameters, such as gender, age, height, and weight. And by choosing all the parameters in the BMI program, you can keep track of your current body fat rate while running.

Speed

The York T600 can reach up to 13 km/h, which is quite impressive compared to the 12 km/h top speed of other treadmills at this price point.

And with the “+” and “-“ buttons, you can manually increase or decrease the speed quickly from 1 to 13, which offers great flexibility.

Build

Outline beams on the sides and under the deck are made of steel, making this model able to hold much more weight than you’d expect from other treadmills with small dimensions. Even with a sturdy build, the York T600 weighs about 70 kg and supports a maximum of 110 kg, so it’s suitable for most users.

Extras

The console contains space for quick keys that you can use to instantly halt the deck and stop running, making it much safer, especially for indoor running.

In addition, you’ll find a spacious bottle holder that makes running even more convenient, so you won’t need to leave when thirsty. On top of that, the console has holes right below the LED screen that you can use as a phone holder.

Warranty

The York T600 treadmill has a lifetime warranty on the frame and running deck, two years on the motor, and one year on other parts.

We would have preferred it if it had an extended warranty on the motor, like the Sole F80 by Sole Fitness, for example.

Assembly

The York T600 treadmill doesn’t come pre-set, but the process of setting it up is straightforward and can be done quite fast.

You’ll just need to use hex bolts when connecting the console, handlebars, posts (steel beams), and deck. Then, make sure all the communication wires are connected. We suggest you check the instructions from the York T600 user manual so you don’t accidentally miss anything essential. You’d also find pictures that’d help you connect the wires easily.

Final Thoughts

So that was our take on the York T600 treadmill. Being affordable, compact, and low-noise, it’s perfect for home use.

It also has some decent features that make it stand out from other products in this price range, such as a solid engine, user-friendly console, various programs, and a cushion suspension running deck.
