★★★★☆

The Landice L870 treadmill body is built to meet institutional standards. Its aluminum frame is three times stronger than steel frames, its deck is more durable than any in the industry, and it features an advanced VFX System for shock absorption. The attractive, quiet machine can add class to any commercial workout environment or home gym.

This impressive treadmill body is available with four console options. The simplest console is the Pro Trainer reviewed below. See our other Landice L870 reviews for the Executive, Sports, and Cardio Trainer consoles.

What We Like

  • Simple Console – The Pro Trainer is the simplest console made for the L870. It features an easy-to-use, high-definition, two-color display and can show workout data in English and metric units. Five preset workouts are included and there’s space to save two user-designed workouts. Heart rate control workout programs are not available for this model, but a wireless heart rate monitoring system is sold separately.
  • High Quality Treadbelt The Landice L870 Treadmill has a spacious 22”x63” treadbelt to accommodate virtually any runner. Its belt is made to endure: with four layers and large rollers, it can endure thousands more hours of use than can a single-ply or two-ply belt with small rollers. Furthermore, the L870’s belt is maintenance-free.
  • Incline – The track can incline 15% to help simulate road running and provide more challenging workouts.
  • Powerful Motors – This model houses an American-made 4.0 CHP drive motor. The motor supports a high speed of 12 mph and can operate at top speed (5 HP) for 15 minutes without overheating. The L870 also has a powerful secondary motor for the incline. With 1,000 pounds of thrust, it provides smooth elevation and declination even at top speeds.
  • iPod Pocket – A special iPod-sized non-slip pocket is built into the console for convenience.
  • High Capacity – The Landice L870 Pro Trainer Treadmill has a 500-pound user capacity. It weighs 355 pounds and measures 35” wide by 83” long.
  • Excellent Warranty – Residential owners of this commercial-quality cardio trainer get a lifetime warranty on the entire machine plus a year of labor. That’s an industry-leading warranty package. Furthermore, the warranty can be transferred to another owner if certain conditions are met.

Our Verdict

The L870 Pro Trainer Home Treadmill is a smooth-running powerhouse with an easy-to-use console. Compared with the L770 Pro Trainer, it has a higher weight capacity and a larger running area – but these upgrades aren’t necessary for most home users. Although it’s only protected with a residential warranty, the L870 Pro Trainer seems most appropriate for institutional use.
