Can anyone recommend a treadmill?

I'd like to get a treadmill to use at home. I'm back at being a beginner (again!) but working towards either a 10k or half marathon.

Can anyone recommend a good home treadmill? I'm not fast but I want it to feel solid like the ones at the gym, oh and it doesn't need to be foldable.

Thank you Smile

We got the cheapest of the mechanical powered ones from decathlon, I will find a link.

It was about £299 I think. It's great, feels solid. The track is slightly narrower than a gym one, it goes up to 14k/hr speed. I started off doing 10 minute walks and then got confident to run outside but I still use it once a week to do a hiit workout or if I can't get out due to weather/kids. I have run a half and a few other 10-15k races off the back of starting. I'd not do more than 5-6 k on the TM though, lest I die of boredom

If I could change 1 feature or pay extra for one thing now after using it, it would be a cup holder for my water bottle. Or a speaker that I could plug my phone into actually both.
