Specs At A Glance

Motor3.5 HP
Speed Range0.8 - 18 km/h
Running Surface125 cm x 48 cm
Incline15 levels, automatic
Max User Weight150 kg

If you walk and jog and want full incline control at home, the Everfit CHI480 pairs a 3.5 HP motor with a 0.8 to 18 km/h speed range and 15 automatic incline levels. The 125 cm x 48 cm belt and 150 kg max user weight suit walking and jogging for most heights; regular runners at 12 km/h and above should look at a longer belt.

It suits a household that wants a treadmill it can tuck away between sessions, with a hydraulic fold-down, built-in transport wheels, and a 5-inch LCD running 12 pre-set programs plus automatic belt lubrication to cut maintenance.

Is this treadmill right for you?

This treadmill is right for you if:

  • You walk daily and jog at up to about 12 km/h a few days a week
  • You want automatic 15-level incline to vary sessions without stopping
  • You need to fold it away with the hydraulic system between workouts
  • You weigh up to 150 kg or share with a heavier user

Look at another option if:

  • You run at 12 km/h or faster most sessions; the 125 cm belt is sized for walking and jogging
  • You want a large HD touchscreen with streaming rather than a 5-inch LCD
  • You train only occasionally and a simpler walking machine would do
  • You want accurate heart-rate zones; the grip pulse sensors give a rough read only
Adela Ledvinkova, Our In-House Fitness Coach

Adela's Take

What stands out is the 15-level automatic incline paired with a top speed of 18 km/h: that combination lets you build genuine hill sessions and faster intervals, not just flat walks.

The 48 cm belt feels tight if you run fast or you're over 180 cm, so it suits joggers best. Its spout-fed belt lubrication is what I'd stake the recommendation on.

3.5 HP Motor with 0.8-18 km/h Speed Range

The 3.5 HP motor gives you a working range from a slow 0.8 km/h walk up to an 18 km/h run, so one machine covers easy walks, steady jogs and short faster intervals.

That bottom speed matters more than people expect: it lets you warm up or cool down at a genuinely gentle pace instead of being forced into a jog.

  • Motor rated at 3.5 HP
  • Speed range: 0.8 to 18 km/h
  • Max user weight: 150 kg
  • 240V power

What this means for you: This motor has headroom for walking, jogging and interval work; the 125 cm belt, not the motor, sets the ceiling for sustained running.

Everfit CHI480 Treadmill Smooth 3.5HP Motor Performance feature

15 Levels of Automatic Incline

Fifteen motorised incline levels adjust at the touch of a button, so you can add gradient without stopping to change anything manually.

Incline work raises the effort of a walk or jog, which is a simple way to build intensity when you don't want to run faster.

  • 15 incline levels
  • Automatic, motorised adjustment
  • Controlled from the console

What this means for you: If you want to train harder at a walking pace, incline raises the effort without needing more speed.

Everfit CHI480 Treadmill 15-Level Automatic Incline feature

Butterfly Spring Shock Absorption with 6-Point Cushioning

The deck uses a butterfly spring joint support system with 6-point dual rubber cushioning to soften each footstrike as you run.

In practice this gives the deck some give underfoot rather than the dead, hard feel of a cheap board, which helps with comfort on longer sessions.

  • Butterfly spring joint support system
  • 6-point dual rubber cushioning
  • 16 mm high strength composite running board
  • Running belt: 1.6 mm thickness, anti-slip and wear-resistant

What this means for you: The deck is supportive rather than pillowy, which is what I prefer for people clocking regular kilometres at home.

Everfit CHI480 Treadmill Advanced Shock Absorption System feature

5-Inch LCD Display with Built-In Audio

The 5-inch LCD screen keeps speed, time, distance, calories and pulse in front of you, so you can read your session at a glance.

USB and MP3 input plus dual built-in speakers let you play your own audio without needing earphones for every run.

  • 5-inch LCD screen
  • Metrics: speed, time, distance, calories, pulse
  • 12 pre-set training programs
  • USB and MP3 input with dual built-in speakers
  • Pulse sensors, tablet holder and dual drink holders

What this means for you: The grip pulse sensors handle casual tracking; for accurate heart-rate zones you'd need a separate heart-rate monitor.

Automatic Belt Lubrication System

Everfit lists automatic belt lubrication. Per the manual, you check the belt about monthly (or every 30 hours of use) and, when it's dry, top up through two oil spouts under the treadmill rather than lifting the belt.

Belt lubrication is the maintenance step most people forget, and skipping it is what shortens a treadmill's life, so the spout system makes it a quick job.

  • Automatic lubrication system built in
  • Lubricating oil included in the box

What this means for you: Easier lubrication means the job actually gets done, which keeps the belt and motor happier over time.

Hydraulic Fold-Down and Transport Wheels

The hydraulic fold-down lets you raise the deck to shrink the footprint from 173 cm long down to a folded 90 cm, so it tucks away between sessions.

Built-in transport wheels let you tilt and roll it into a corner rather than dragging the full frame across the floor.

  • Hydraulic fold-down system
  • Assembled footprint: 173 cm (L) x 77 cm (W) x 128 cm (H)
  • Folded footprint: 90 cm (L) x 77 cm (W) x 140 cm (H)
  • Built-in transport wheels

What this means for you: Folded, it fits a standard room easily; the hydraulic assist controls the descent so the deck doesn't drop on you.

Everfit CHI480 Treadmill Foldable & Space-Saving Design feature

Included Manual and Simple Setup

Assembly is required: the manual covers raising the frame until it locks, bolting the supports and handles in place, and fitting the two front covers.

A multi-function wrench and 5 mm and 6 mm Allen keys come in the hardware pack, and the front covers fix with cross-head self-tapping screws. The safety tether key is there from the first session.

  • Assembly required: frame, supports, handles and front covers
  • Supplied tools: multi-function wrench, 5 mm and 6 mm Allen keys
  • User manual and lubricating oil included
  • Safety tether key included
  • 12 month warranty

What this means for you: You can have it built and running the same day it arrives, and our 100-day money-back guarantee gives you time to be sure it suits you.

Dimensions & Assembly

Everfit CHI480 Treadmill

What's in the Box & Setup

Effort: assembly required, 4 illustrated steps in the manual. Tools: a multi-function wrench and 5 mm and 6 mm Allen keys are supplied; the front covers fix with cross-head self-tapping screws.

What arrives

  • Everfit CHI480 treadmill main chassis
  • Chassis covers (2)
  • Safety key
  • MP3 cable
  • Hardware pack with multi-function wrench and 5 mm and 6 mm Allen keys
  • User manual and bottle of lubricating oil

Setup reality

  1. Raise the frame until it locks, then bolt the supports and handles in place and fit the two front covers, following the manual's 4 figures.
  2. Check the running belt for lubrication before first use, as Everfit advises, and confirm the folding mechanism releases smoothly.
  3. Net weight is 66 kg, so plan the move into position before unboxing, and consider a 6 mm rubber mat if you have rooms below.
  4. 12-month warranty applies from purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions

How loud is it at running pace?

The 3.5 HP motor stays reasonably quiet at walking and jogging speeds. Push it toward the top speed of 18 km/h and you'll hear more motor hum plus your own footstrike. On an upstairs install, a 6 mm rubber mat under the deck cuts the thud transferred to rooms below. Expect normal-conversation levels during a steady run.

What's the running surface like for taller runners?

The belt is 125 cm long and 48 cm wide. That length covers walking and jogging up to about 12 km/h for users up to around 185 cm tall. If you run at 12 km/h or faster, we'd recommend a belt of 130 cm or longer, and longer again if you're tall. Confirm your height and usual pace against the surface before committing.

How does the incline work and how steep does it go?

You get 15 automatic incline levels, adjusted straight from the 5-inch LCD console, so no stopping to shift anything manually. Incline adds real intensity without raising speed, which is handy for hill-style sessions and keeping walks challenging. I lean on incline a lot with clients who want harder work at a controlled pace rather than faster running.

Are the pulse sensors accurate enough for heart-rate training?

The built-in pulse grip sensors give you a rough read, fine for a general check mid-session. For accurate heart-rate zones, use a separate heart-rate monitor so you're actually training at the right intensity. Grip sensors also mean holding the handrails, which changes your gait, so I only use them for spot checks rather than continuous monitoring.

How much space does it need, and does it fold away?

Assembled it's 173 cm long, 77 cm wide and 128 cm tall. The hydraulic fold-down brings the footprint to 90 cm long once stored, though it rises to 140 cm tall folded, so check that clearance. Built-in transport wheels let you roll it to a corner between sessions, which makes it workable in a shared room.

How hard is it to assemble and what do I need?

Assembly is required. The manual walks through 4 illustrated steps: raise the frame until it locks, bolt the supports and handles in place, then fit the front covers. A multi-function wrench and 5 mm and 6 mm Allen keys are supplied; the front covers use cross-head self-tapping screws. The user manual and lubricating oil are in the box, and Everfit asks that you check the belt for lubrication before first use.

What happens if it arrives damaged or a part is missing?

Take photos before unpacking and email support@cardioonline.com.au within 48 hours of delivery. We'll lodge the freight claim, organise replacement parts or a full unit, and stay across it until you're running. You don't chase the courier or the manufacturer yourself, that's our job to sort out for you.

What's the warranty, and what if I change my mind?

The CHI480 comes with a 12-month warranty, handled locally by us. If this product page shows the 100 Day Money Back Guarantee badge, you have 100 days to return it: as-new, disassembled and repackaged with all parts.
