Taurus Elite Run Curved Treadmill
Written by Jamie Miller, Founder & EditorLast checked
We have not run on this machine and we do not pretend to have. What follows is every figure Taurus or its retailer publishes about the Taurus Elite Run Curved Treadmill, each one carrying where it came from and when we checked it, and an equally plain list of the 5 figures nobody publishes at all.
10 of 15 specifications established from a named source.
What the figures say
Every line below is worked out from the numbers in the table, compared against the other machines we hold records for. None of it is an impression.
In its favour
- At 160 cm the belt is the longest of any machine we hold a record for, ahead of 153 cm.
- Rated to 150 kg, which almost nothing in the UK consumer market reaches.
- There is no motor at all. The belt moves because you move it, so there is nothing to burn out.
Against it
- It does not fold, so the floor it occupies is permanent.
- At 128 kg it is a two-person lift, and it is not going upstairs easily.
- 5 of the 15 figures we look for are not published anywhere we would trust.

What nobody publishes
Most sites leave these rows out, which makes a machine look better documented than it is. They are here because knowing what is unknown changes how much weight you put on the rest.

Who it suits
Our reading of the figures above, not a verdict on the machine.
- Running
- Yes
- Walking
- Yes
- Flat or shared building
- No
- Putting it away
- No
Running is yes: a 160 x 43 cm slatted curved belt with no motor ceiling is built for sprint work, and the retailer rates it for commercial use at the same warranty as home use. Walking is possible but the machine is designed around the runner driving the belt. Apartment is no on mass and permanence - 128 kg and no folding mechanism - not on noise, which is unpublished as everywhere else. Storage is no: one dimension set, no folded size, 172 x 81 cm of permanent floor.
How this page was put together
Every figure above was read off a named source, recorded with the date we read it, and is shown with that source attached. Where two sources disagreed we kept both. Where a figure was missing we left it missing, because the alternative is to borrow a number from a similar model and hope. Nothing here is a measurement of ours. How we review.
