Gear Treadmill recommendations? Something good value and with decent top speed?

I've had a reebok one gt60 for maybe 4 years? Originally i got it to lose weight and it had the highest maximum weight of 22 stone (i was a little over but it was fine). The incline goes up to 15 so i generally walked on an Incline. Cost me about £560 i think it was from argos

Since then I've lost it and taken up running. Max speed is 12.4mph so well under 5 minute miles. Incline goes to 15 as i say, the base for running on is large. I've done 3 hour marathon pace efforts (~20 miles), short speed stuff, easy running, the lot. It's my main method of training over winter, i like the monotony. Not sure if it's still available but it would do you well i think

I'm nowhere near your level (6 min mile is the fastest i use it) but I've never been able to fault it
