Hi, this is a short review for NordicTrack A2550 model.

Weight:
This is a very heavy & big machine. Pay the extra fee for the in house delivering.(Unless you have a lot of friends/family members that are willing to help you).

Assembly:
The process is pretty straight forward but it will take you at least one hour to do it. Also because the machine is very heavy you should assemble near his definitive location.

The package items are easy to find and the instructions are pretty clear. If you can pay for delivering and installation: do it.

Warranty:
You get a lifetime warranty for the motor and frame but only one year for the parts. This is not a good thing. You are going to scream if you see the part price list. So get the extend warranty.

Console:
The console is easy to use and I love the Quick Speed and Incline keys (didn’t have these on my previous treadmill).The design is boring and the sound from the speakers is not very good.

Didn’t have time to play with the iFit cards and I don’t think I will. But, it looks like a nice feature for beginners.

The heart monitor is completely off- it’s need some time to display the pulse that is wrong in 50% of the cases. However you should not consider this a minus since all the handgrips hear reader (on other brands) don’t function right.

Noise:
Well it makes some noise, but is not something annoying. I think you can watch the tv (with sound on normal level) and use this treadmill. I never tried since I’m an Ipod guy.

Cushioning:
The cushioning is surprisingly good. It gives me a firm feel.

Walking and running
The walking area is spacious and can accommodate tall persons. The machine makes a strange noise at lower speed (around 2.5 mph) but it disappear when you use it at higher speeds.

The machines feels good and it runs smoothly at higher speeds. No problems when you use the incline. Everything works as expected.

There is a small problem when you change the speed via the Quick keys. If you go from 8 to 3 mph you have the feeling that it stop and then start again at the desired speed.

Customer Service
I didn’t have any problems with my unit so I cannot say anything on this chapter.

The NordicTrack Apex 8500 is a very good machine and we especially like the 3.5 CHP motor that handle easily faster running speeds. Also the belt (with the Reflex Deck cushioning system) is very comfortable and you will love it once you get use with it. You will actually refuse to work on other treadmills because you will have the impression that is only a belt over concrete.

The bed is pretty light so it will be easy to lift and fold but don’t expect to be easy to move since is a heavy machine.

Also you should know that because of the Reflex deck system the workouts will seem much easier since the belt will return part of the energy absorbed on each step.

The warranty is not very good. We recommend to buy the extend warranty.

Overall we think that you get a very good quality for this price and that the NordicTrack Apex 8500 treadmill is one of the best home machines for runners.

The machine is a pretty good one. Most of the persons that buy it will say that it’s worth the money.
This treadmill is specially designed for the ones that want to do some exercise but in the same time watch their favorite TV show. The flat screen is the strength and weakness of this model .It look great but it breaks too often and you will not want to replace it when you will hear the price (around 1100$).

It comes with a massive box which is extremely heavy and it may take a while until you will assemble it. But we will not consider these as minuses.

The built in fans are a nice feature but don’t think you will run with the wind in your hair :).The fans are not powerful enough.

NordicTrack ViewPoint 3000 Treadmill is a big and serious machine (by the way you really need to have some room for it even if it does fold up).Is a durable treadmill that will serve perfectly a home runner.

The treadmill has also a pretty good sound system installed but don’t expect at something high end. Anyway for this lower price the sound quality is very good.

Some users complain that the CardioGrip™ Heart Rate Monitor is not very exact. We notice this also and this is definitely a serious minus. Another disadvantage is the fact that is pretty heavy and usually need 2 people in order to move it.

Overall the machine works very well is extremely quiet and is definitely one of the best solution if your budget under or around 800 usd.

A big minus for this machine is the montage: it takes around 90 minutes and you need to follow the directions very carefully. Otherwise you will have to go back to step1.

For 800$ you will get a good treadmill where you can run for good miles and not feel flimsy or cheap.

In conclusion the C2155 treadmill comes wit some nice feature but in the end is still economy equipment. This is indicated for the casual runners and not for the ones that train on daily basis. Also is not recommended for the heavier persons.

There are 2 big minuses of this machine – the heart monitor sensor which is completely off and the fact that is heavy and pretty hard to assemble. But even with this 2 things the treadmill is a very good machine and is a best buy solution for 90% of the home runners.
