You can also move it very easily thanks to its 2 big wheels.

It also has a special texture on the running belt to provide you with more grip while you exercise.
Price & Warranty
Durafit Panther Multifunction Treadmill comes with a warranty of 5 years for its frame and a 1-year warranty on other parts and 3 years warranty on the motor.

Durafit Panther Treadmill Review: Our verdict
There are lighter treadmills available at similar prices but they miss out on the features. If you don’t want a buy-looking treadmill, you can look at other options.
Also, it comes only in black colour with slight accents of red here and there. So if you want a treadmill with simple minimalistic looks then we recommend other options.
Apart from this, Durafit Panther Multifunction Treadmill is a good choice for those people who wants to buy a large treadmill with ample space and power to have their intensive workout.
Its build quality is very good and can last for many long years if proper care is taken.
