NordicTrack is one of the fitness industry’s oldest manufacturers. In 1975, Edward and Florence Pauls built a ski machine in their garage in Chaska, Minnesota. Ed wanted to train indoors during the brutal Minnesota winter. The ski machine was so successful, the Pauls found themselves running a thriving manufacturing business that expanded to include treadmills, ellipticals and other cardio equipment. In 1998, NordicTrack was acquired by IconFitness located in Logan, Utah. Icon is also the parent company of ProForm, iFit, and FreeMotion and still one of the largest manufacturers of health and fitness equipment.
NordicTrack offers a plethora of highly functional treadmills and we enjoy getting to test and review these machines. Check out the lineup of NordicTrack treadmills below.
What To Expect From NordicTrack Treadmills
We really like NordicTrack’s treadmills because they were designed with innovation, while also keeping your body in mind. Running is high-impact and can be tough on the joints, especially when you run on concrete. The cushioning on NordicTrack treadmills is among some of the softest we’ve tested, which really helps absorb the impact that comes from running and minimize the pain that can come with that.
Even their basic model treadmills are iFit compatible to ensure you’re able to get the most out of your training. From studio-style classes, to outdoor hikes and runs around the world, to classes off the treadmill, iFit offers countless options to keep you engaged and motivated. Even apart from their features and content, when you step on a NordicTrack treadmill you can feel the stability and experience the hearty motor power that can withstand your training for years to come.
NordicTrack Incline Trainer Reviews
NordicTrack’s Incline Trainers are their top-of-the-line treadmills that feature steep incline and decline, extra Reflex Cushioning in the deck, magnificent full-color touchscreens, hearty motors, and extras such as sled push bar and manual mode. The Incline Trainers do not fold up, but their enhanced stability enables them to offer more features.
NordicTrack Commercial X32i Incline Trainer
NordicTrack’s x32i is king of the mountain when it comes to overall design and functionality. The 4.25HP motor is smooth and powerful and you get an extra 5” of length on the tread belt! This is the perfect set-up for anyone who wants a bit of extra space or for tall runners who may need additional kick-back length. The 32” touchscreen is NordicTrack’s largest with graphics that are crisp and colorful. The screen takes up the full space on the front of the treadmill, so you do have to reach behind it to grab water bottles. One touch controls to the side of the screen make navigation easy; you can quickly move from a 6mph speed to 9mph speed and drop incline from 30% to 6% with just the touch of a button. NordicTrack’s one touch controls are my favorite on any console. The x32i is a powerful, impressive machine that will make your training enjoyable and beneficial.

NordicTrack Commercial X22i Incline Trainer
I seem to like the mid-range models the best and this is also true for the x22i. This is my favorite incline trainer by far. It offers a great combination of gorgeous 22” touchscreen, 40% to -6% incline and decline, 12mph max speed, good size tread belt and enhanced Reflex Cushioning. It also measures slightly smaller than the x11i. The difference between the 10” touchscreen on the x11i and the 22” touchscreen on the x22i is like night and day. Whereas the x11i is adequate, the x22i is gorgeous. The screen is the perfect size so you retain the one touch controls for speed and incline along the side. This touchscreen really pulls you in and makes it feel like you are right there, in the iFit class or on an outdoor route, enjoying the scenery and exercise. A powerful fan in the console has four settings and speakers under the screen offer good sound. Water bottle holders on either side of the screen are easy to reach and a lip above the speakers provides the perfect place to see a phone or tablet. I love training on the x22i and I bet you will too!

NordicTrack Commercial Treadmill Reviews
A step up from the T-series, the Commercial line treadmills feature larger running decks, more cushion, higher incline and decline, and larger touchscreens. The Commercial treads have bigger motors to support more intense training and multiple users. The Commercial series treadmills all fold, which makes them NordicTrack’s best selling line.
NordicTrack Commercial 2950 Treadmill
The 2950 is NordicTrack’s highest-grade folding treadmill. The 2950 features much of the functionality found on the Incline Trainers while still retaining the folding frame. It has a 4.25HP motor, which is on par with the x32i so you get top-of-the-line power. Since the motor regulates both speed and incline, adjustments are smooth and consistent. The motor is self-cooling and rated for heavy use and lots of training. The RunnersFlex cushioning is adjustable, so you can turn it on to enhance cushion or turn it off to mimic outdoor surfaces. Add a wide database of iFit classes and you have a machine that will offer some of the best conditioning available on a folding treadmill.

Read our full review of the NordicTrack Commercial 2950 Treadmill.
NordicTrack Commercial 2450 Treadmill
NordicTrack’s 2450 is the mid-range model in the commercial line that again upgrades the motor and adds a 14” touchscreen. RunnersFlex cushioning in the deck provides more travel than the FlexSelect option, so the 2450 gives you more joint support and impact control. While the 1750 is consistently the best-selling model, I personally prefer the 2450 because I love the larger screen size. Size matters here with so many great iFit options, and that 4” really does make a difference. Since so much functionality is embedded in the touchscreen (fan and speaker control; additional speed and incline controls; iFit menu and selection) the larger size makes it easier to see and navigate the programs and classes. Check out the 2450 (it’s my personal favorite)!
- 0 – 3% Decline

Read our full review of the NordicTrack Commercial 2450 Treadmill.
NordicTrack Commercial 1750 Treadmill
The 1750 hits a sweet-spot for the best combination of features at just the right price. Consequently, it is one of NordicTrack’s best selling treadmills. The Commercial line offers decline in addition to incline, so you can drop the front of the deck -3% for downhill training or gentle knee strengthening. It’s unusual to find decline on a folding treadmill, so we love the innovation here! Again, 12mph speed is about the most anyone should need and the 3.75HP motor keeps the power flowing through speed changes and incline adjustments. You get all this for a reasonable price well below the $2000 threshold, which makes the 1750 consistently popular.

NordicTrack Elite Treadmill Review
NordicTrack offers another line of treadmills that is perfect for incline training. The Elite treadmill comes in two options for screen sizes and offers the same 40% incline as the incline trainer treadmills, but with a unique design. The Elite treadmills don’t fold and weigh around 505-520 lbs. The screens on the Elite Treadmills are extremely adjustable and can be positioned up and down, as well as side to side up to 360 degrees. This way you can use iFit on and off the Elite Treadmill. The screens in both sizes also sit up higher than other treadmills we’ve seen so your head and neck are in a better position when following along to iFit’s classes.
NordicTrack Elite Treadmill
The NordicTrack Elite Treadmill comes in two different screen size options: 32 inches and 22 inches. The screens are really clear and obviously large. They have a floating design similar to a TV or computer monitor, and minimal storage options. The handles are similar to the incline trainers and allow for sled-pushing, too. In addition to the 40% incline, the Elite Treadmill declines to -5% and goes up to 12 mph for lots of training options. It has a pretty low step-up height at around 9.5” from the floor to the top of the side rail, making it easier to get on and off, and saving you a little bit of headroom when it comes to ceiling height, not much though!

NordicTrack EXP Series Treadmill Reviews
The EXP Series is NordicTrack’s basic line of in-home treadmills. These treadmills are affordable and foldable, so they work great for apartments, small homes, students, etc. The EXP Series is best for users who want to walk or lightly jog. All these treadmills will support a 300lb max user weight. The EXP Series all have full color touchscreens that are iFit compatible. EXP Series treadmills will support light to moderate use, but they are not designed for intense running, multiple users, or heavy use.
NordicTrack EXP 10i Treadmill
We love how the EXP 10i is affordable but still offers a lot of great features. The 10” touchscreen is the same as on the Commercial 1750, so you’re getting great functionality here at a good price point. FlexSelect cushioning in the deck also adds to your comfort and the 20” wide by 60” long tread belt is enough space for walking or light jogging. The NordicTrack EXP 10i is a great option for first-time treadmill owners, students, or anyone in a small space or apartment. It’s quiet, folds up, and doesn’t take up too much space when in use. The deck is lightweight and easy to lift by one person.

NordicTrack EXP 7i Treadmill
The EXP 7i is a new model in the EXP Series with a 7” touchscreen and comfortable walking deck. This is a great option for users who want to walk and enjoy good content on a solid treadmill at a reasonable price. The 7” can be a bit small for some users but it’s still nice to have a screen. We love the great combination of features that provides an excellent in-home exercise experience for any budget.

Pros / Cons of NordicTrack Treadmills
Pros
- NordicTrack treadmills are consistently at the top of our best list due to impressive features and solid engineering
- NordicTrack does not believe that one-size-fits-all. They offer multiple treadmill models and options so users can find the right combination of features for their needs
- The NordicTrack EXP Series and Commercial series treadmills all fold up, which is a huge benefit to users who may need to clear floor space when not using their treadmill
- NordicTrack has streamlined functionality so console layout and navigation is similar on all their machines. It is easy to understand and use any NordicTrack machine
- iFit runs on all NordicTrack treadmills, from the affordable T6.5s model to the high-end x32i incline trainer. This means users are all getting the same excellent workout classes and options, even if they can’t afford a high-end machine.
- NordicTrack has been engineering and manufacturing exercise equipment for decades, so the company knows what works and what doesn’t. NordicTrack components and design are tried-and-true.
- NordicTrack treadmills feature some impressive cushioning. The EXP Series line offers RunnersFlex cushioning while the Commercial and Incline Series both have adjustable cushioning that can be turned on or off as needed.
- NordicTrack has amplified their incline/decline feature. Even folding treadmills will drop to a -3% decline and up to a 15% incline. This enhances calorie burn and muscle strengthening so users can walk an incline, stay low-impact, but still get great cardio conditioning.
Cons
- Some of the higher-end treadmills can be difficult to put together and require at least two people to do so. We recommend purchasing the “White Glove” assembly from NordicTrack which covers set-up and removal of all packaging material.
iFit Review:
iFit is Nordictrack’s subscription service. It currently costs $39/month for a family plan (up to 5 profiles), and $180/year for the yearly individual plan (1 profile). NordicTrack currently offers a free 30-day iFit subscription with the purchase of any exercise equipment. iFit includes thousands of different workouts and classes for both on and off the treadmill. All Nordictrack treadmills have touchscreens that will support iFit, which makes it so all Nordictrack have access to great content. A few of the features we love
- Automated incline/decline and resistance
When you start an iFit program, the treadmill is automated to do what the trainer directs, which means users can run (or walk) hands-free while the treadmill automatically adjusts to match the class incline or resistance. This is a huge benefit and makes it easy to enjoy a class without having to constantly play with the controls.
- Abundant indoor class options both on and off the treadmill
iFit classes are not limited to running on the treadmill. There are also walking classes, interval training, and hundreds of other classes off the treadmill such as resistance training, yoga, stretching, aerobics, combo classes, HIIT classes, etc. You can log into iFit on your machine or from any personal device so you can take a class at any time in any location.
- Outdoor running and walking routes all over the world
You are also not limited to indoor classes! iFit has running and walking routes all over the world! One of my favorites is the London walking series where you walk along as a trainer navigates the streets of London. Another option takes you through the mountains of Thailand. Outdoor routes are led by a personal trainer who gives instruction, cues upcoming inclines or speed changes, and offers informative tips about local culture or geography.
- Professional personal trainers lead and instruct as you work out
Each class, indoor or out, is led by a professional personal trainer. These trainers are engaging and make the content and programs helpful and interesting.
- Updated and engaging content
Class content is updated regularly. New classes and routes will show up daily. Series classes may take you through various stages of an event, such as the Hawaii Marathon. You can select one of the different filmed routes in that event.
- Leaderboard and other community features
iFit does have a Leaderboard, which connects users who are taking the same class. Filters on the Leaderboard allow you to adjust who you compete against and manage the leader criteria.
- Affordable for what you get
iFit is one of the more affordable fitness subscriptions on the market when you consider that it is automated with your treadmill, has thousands of classes, and can be used on any personal device at any time.
