NordicTrack Treadmills
NordicTrack treadmills are by far the most popular home exercise machines on the market today, and for good reason. Their machines offer features, capabilities and technology that you just don’t find anywhere else…especially for the price.
The NordicTrack brand is owned by ICON Health and Fitness, who also make ProForm, Healthrider, Freemotion, Weider, Weslo, Gold’s Gym and the popular iFit workout technology. But NordicTrack is their biggest seller, and the treadmills seem to get better and better every year.

Model Reviews:
As a general rule, NordicTrack sells very good treadmills with competitive features at very affordable prices. They were the first to add features such as decline and Android touch screen monitors.
They have also become known for their iFit technology, which allows you to tap into hundreds of specially designed workouts, track and share your results and choose any location worldwide via Google maps and watch it unfold on your tablet, smart phone or even on some NordicTrack treadmill displays.
Main Strengths
Workout Diversity
All treadmills have at least 25 preset workouts built right into the console. Also, almost all units are iFit compatible or enabled, adding even more workouts to choose from.
Incline Trainers
Incline Trainers are an Icon Fitness trademark. They are popular because they support high incline (up to 40%) and decline (-6%). They give hill intervals a new meaning and really amp up your training.
Strong Frame/Motor Warranty
You receive a lifetime warranty for the frame and motor as well as a solid warranty on parts and labor.
Weaknesses
Customer Support Issues
Some of our readers have mentioned customer support issues with their NordicTrack treadmills. Although we haven’t yet experienced any problems during our reviews, it’s worth mentioning. However, this is the case with most companies in the industry for some reason.
NordicTrack Treadmill Buying Tips
When you decide to purchase a NordicTrack treadmill, make sure you check their promotions. They have sales going on almost all the time, and you can find terrific bargains for all of their latest models.
The second recommendation is to buy a treadmill with iFIT included. It doesn’t matter if you get the touch screen system or not (although it’s a neat feature). iFIT connects you to a large workout variety and automatically adjusts both the speed and the incline to match the workout. It does require a yearly fee but it is well worth it in our opinion.
Their Commercial Series, including the 1750, 2450 and 2950 is the most popular, and these machines are more durable and have more features than the lower priced C Series. If you have the budget, one of these is your best bet. However, the C Series treadmills are perfectly fine for home use if you’re looking in the lower price ranges.
