Is a 20% incline worth it over 10-15%?

Yes if you plan to walk or hike indoors. A 20% grade adds real intensity at walking speeds and spares your joints compared with running flat. At running speeds you will rarely use the top levels.

Can it handle a 400 lb user at 12 mph?

The belt and frame are rated to 400 lb, but running at top speed puts far more stress on the deck and motor than walking. Heavier runners should expect more wear and should keep the belt lubricated.

How much space does it need when folded?

The deck folds up vertically on a soft-drop hinge and rolls on transport wheels. Plan for clearance behind it to tilt the deck and a few feet of ceiling height when stored upright.

Does it work without the app?

Yes. The console controls speed, incline and the 71 preset programs on its own. The FitShow app adds phone control and tracking but is not required to use the treadmill.

What comes in the box?

The treadmill, assembly hardware and tools, a power cord, and the safety key. A mat and lubricant are usually sold separately.

Folding treadmills of this type tend to drop around Black Friday, New Year fitness sales and spring clearance. Compare across stores rather than assuming one retailer is lowest.
