Formill FT62 Review 2026: 4.0HP Auto Incline Treadmill for Home Gym

Formill FT62 treadmill with 18% auto incline in a home gym setting

What if your home treadmill could simulate an 18% hill climb, hit 16 km/h, and still fold away when you're done? The Formill FT62 makes that a reality. 🏔️🏃♂️

If you've been shopping for a home treadmill, you know the trade-offs. Walking pads are compact but limited to slow speeds. Full-size gym treadmills are powerful but huge and expensive. The Formill FT62 sits in the sweet spot between these extremes — a 4.0HP treadmill with 18% automatic incline, 16km/h top speed, and a 1200×430mm running area, all in a foldable design that fits a home gym or living room.

Let's dive into what makes the Formill FT62 one of the most compelling home treadmills of 2026. 👇

⚡ 4.0HP Motor: Gym-Level Power at Home

At the heart of the Formill FT62 is a 4.0HP brushless motor — a significant step up from the 2.5HP motors found in walking pads and entry-level treadmills.

What 4.0HP means for your training:

Scenario What You'll Feel
Walking (1-3 km/h) Effortless, whisper-quiet operation
Jogging (3-6 km/h) Smooth, consistent power delivery
Running (6-12 km/h) Stable performance without motor strain
Sprint (12-16 km/h) Confident, powerful performance
Heavier users (up to 150kg) The motor handles the load without slowing

Why brushless matters: Brushless motors are quieter, more efficient, and longer-lasting than traditional brushed motors. They generate less heat, require less maintenance, and deliver more consistent power over years of use.

Real rider feedback:

“The transition between speeds is smooth, and the 4.0HP motor doesn't struggle even during long runs.”

🏔️ 18% Auto Incline: Simulate Outdoor Terrain

The FT62's standout feature is its 18% automatic incline — a rarity at this level of home treadmill.

What 18% auto incline means for your workouts:

Incline Level What It Simulates Benefit
0% Flat road Recovery walks, warm-ups
Low incline Gentle hill Extra calorie burn, glute activation
High incline (18%) Steep trail Intense cardio, muscle building

Why auto incline matters: Unlike manual incline treadmills where you have to stop and adjust the deck by hand, the FT62's auto incline lets you change elevation from the touch panel or app — even mid-run. This makes it easy to follow 12 built-in training programs that alternate between flat and incline segments.

Real rider feedback:

“The 18% auto incline is no joke—it really pushes my hill sprints to the next level.”

📏 1200×430mm Running Area: Room for a Real Stride

The FT62's 1200×430mm running belt is significantly larger than the compact belts found on walking pads.

Why running area matters:

Running Area Best For
Walking pads (90×40cm) Slow walking only
FT62 (120×43cm) Walking, jogging, and running
Gym treadmills (150×55cm+) Sprinting, tall runners

What this means for you:

  • 🏃 Running stride: Enough length for a comfortable stride at 16 km/h

  • 🦶 Foot placement: 43cm width provides ample space — one reviewer noted “I really appreciate the 43cm-wide belt, NOT UNDER 40cm... I never feel like I'm going to step off the edge”

  • 👟 Average-height users: The 120cm length accommodates most runners comfortably

📱 Touch Panel + APP Control: Smart and Connected

The FT62 offers two ways to control your workout — a smart touch panel and APP control via Bluetooth.

Key control features:

  • Smart touch panel — clear, responsive display for speed, incline, time, distance, and calories

  • APP control (FitShow) — connect via Bluetooth for program selection, progress tracking, and custom workouts

  • 12 built-in programs — preset workouts that alternate speed and incline

  • Speed range — 1-16 km/h, adjustable in precise increments

  • Heart rate sensors — monitor your training zone

🛡️ Safety & Build Quality: Built for Daily Home Use

The FT62 is engineered for daily home use with a focus on safety and durability.

Key safety features:

Feature What It Means
150kg max load Supports a wide range of users
5-layer anti-slip belt + 8 silicone shock absorbers Reduces joint strain and protects knees and ankles
Magnetic safety key Stops the belt instantly if you lose balance
Folding design Folds up for storage when not in use
Transport wheels Easy to move and store
48kg net weight Manageable for a full-featured treadmill

Build quality impression: The FT62 uses 8 silicone shock absorbers and a 5-layer anti-slip belt to reduce joint strain and minimize noise — making it a good fit for apartments, houses, and offices.

One reviewer noted: “It feels incredibly stable, more like a gym machine than a home one. The 150kg weight capacity gives it a very solid, premium feel with zero wobbling at high speeds.”

Best For Serious home running Full-featured home gym Under-desk walking

The FT62 occupies a unique position in the Formill lineup: the most powerful and versatile home treadmill for serious runners. While the FT71 offers a slightly larger running area, the FT62 delivers more power (4.0HP vs 3.5HP) and a steeper incline (18% vs auto) at a more accessible level. If you want to walk, jog, and run at home — without dedicating a room to a gym treadmill — the FT62 is built for you.

🎯 Who Is the FT62 For?

If you are... Why the FT62 fits
🏃 A serious home runner 4.0HP, 16 km/h, 18% auto incline
🏋️ A fitness enthusiast Full range of speeds and incline programs
🏠 A home gym owner Fits in a dedicated workout space

⚠️ What to Keep in Mind

Weight: At 48kg, the FT62 is heavy — it's not a portable walking pad you slide under the sofa. It's designed for a dedicated home gym or living room spot. The folding design and transport wheels help with storage, but you won't want to move it daily.

Footprint: With a 1200×430mm running area, the FT62 takes up more floor space than a walking pad. Measure your available space before ordering.

Assembly: The FT62 arrives partially assembled — final setup takes about 20-30 minutes.

Power requirements: Operates on standard household power — check your local voltage compatibility.

Not for under-desk use: The FT62 is too tall and too fast for under-desk walking. For that, look at the FT31 or FT33 walking pads.
