NordicTrack Commercial 2150 (Folding)

• Motor: The NordicTrack Commercial 2150 houses a 3.8 horsepower DurX motor. This commercial-quality motor is designed to have great power and remarkable silence. It supports a top speed of 12 mph and has a lifetime warranty.

• Console: The 2150’s console is a top selling point. Boasting the exercise industry’s largest color touchscreen and an Android browser, it displays high-definition video workouts and offers trainees the convenience of reading email or surfing the Internet during workouts. The console also has a convenient shelf that’s sized for an MP3 player.

• Workouts: This treadmill includes several workout options. First, high-definition video workouts are built into the console. These feature stunning beach views plus the motivation of a personal trainer. Second, iFit Live lets owners access additional workouts, log their exercise sessions, and even compete in treadmill races with Facebook friends. Third, the 2150 has a Set-a-Goal Workout Center. This function quickly designs workouts by taking your time, distance, and calorie-burning goals into account.

• Track: This treadmill’s two-ply track is 60” long. It provides exceptional joint protection with QuadFlex Plus cushioning. Additionally, extra-large 3”rollers help extend the track’s life and make its operation remarkably quiet.

• Incline/Decline: An incline and decline stimulate additional muscle fibers and help replicate outdoor exercise conditions. The NordicTrack 2150 treadmill inclines up to 15% and declines up to 3%.

• Heart rate monitoring: Trainees can use a wireless chest strap or special handlebar grips to monitor their heart rates.

• Sound system: The 2150 has advanced 3.0 Intermix Acoustics speakers with great fidelity. Just plug in your iPod or other MP3 player to exercise with your favorite tunes.

• Fan: The NordicTrack 2150 has one of the best treadmill fans available. The 8” unit has low, medium and high settings to help trainees’ endurance.

• Space-saving: This treadmill can be folded vertically. Shock-assist technology makes it easy to fold with a simple push.

• High capacity: This unit has a 375 pound user weight capacity. Its 3.8 HP motor can easily support a heavier trainee during high intensity workouts.

• Warranty: The Commercial 2150 treadmill warranty includes a lifetime guarantee on the motor and frame. Residential customers also get a five-year warranty on parts and two years of service. A separate parts and service warranty is available to commercial customers.

What We Don’t Like:

• Higher price: This machine’s 10” touchscreen and Android browser give it a higher price than many other home treadmills. That said, they also make the competition look a bit old-school in comparison.
