Bought a 1250 Nordic Track treadmill directly from Nordic Track. Took about a month to arrive and it was dropped off on the street beside the sidewalk. After hiring some help we got it in the house and near the end of assembly I had a swivel screen was frozen at 90%. So I reached out for help and they were going to sent me a part. Wait? What!? Their 3 month warranty is 3 months from DATE of purchase, parts were covered, but labour is described as help in telling you what to do, finding helpful videos, etc. COMPLETELY AND INTENTIONALLY MISLEADING. And by the time the part arrived my warranty had expired and they refused to do any “labour”. But I could pay a technician $150 for a quote. My recommendation is take a HARD PASS on this clearly shady company.
So dumb Nordictrack locks you out from playing music from your phone to your treadmill speakers and even dumber you can’t watch Netflix or stream content on the screen.
you can bypass it and make it work / stream whatever you want on it, but it is very annoying to get it going, and whenever there is an update, you have to do it again.
@@trollzone1 yeah i heard about that as well, it blows my mind that they would do this lol. at the moment, i am having a nightmare of a problem picking a treadmill for myself. I really wanted the super immersive stuff with following a trainer through around the world places, but i am asking myself how important are the features and such, when i could just put a different and cheaper one in my gym room with a big tv and watch shows and not pay a subscription.. then alot of people keep mentioning they are not great durability wise, and all the research ive done stated customer service is the biggest hell i could ever imagine. I am also considering like the r2 walking pad for my computer desk, so i am all over the place trying to figure out what i want, and it seems like the videos and research i am doing just is not helping me decide lol.
@TreadmillReviewGuru, So are we really paying an extra $500 for the bigger screen and 0.1horsepower of the 2450 vs 1750? It really seems like NordicTrack's models are converging instead of differentiating offering consumers multiple options. I'm trying to find a good reason to buy the 2450 over the 1750.
Do not get any NordicTrack treadmill! They delivered a 1750 to me that was defective. It felt like I was going to fall off. Customer service was horrible. They told me customers should it's NORMAL for that to happen. They made me pay a $450 fee in addition to the $250 fee I already paid to return it less than 24 hours after I had gotten it. I'd much rather pay the fee than keep a product that has a safety issue!
Is it true that Nordic Track treadmills will not allow you to search the internet or use apps? It looks like the only thing you can do with them is to use the IFit for a monthly charge.
Don't buy these treadmills! We bought the 2450 and when it arrived I attempted to pair my phone to the treadmill because we had an older generation that we would pair our phones to play music etc. To our surprise, you CANT even do that!! When we attempted to return it, we would only receive about 80% (I can't remember the exact price) of the money back! These units are designed to FORCE you to purchaser their stupid IFIT app to mil more money out of you. Don't buy this because there are other companies that make better units and allow you to decide the expense you want instead of the one they GIVE you.
Do not get one. The screen does not respond competently to touch and every thing is set to making you spend more money rather than exercise Waste of A$3,500
Theyre all trash because nordic track is trash. They will all break down and you will not get any help from Nordic track. Anyone tells you different theyre lying to uou for money.

@@TheRealEvadestoo much work for me. They even lock out Bluetooth on the 2022 on up models.

Does the peloton do the same thing?

Absolutely agree

Thanks for the review!
Bowflex T22 has my vote!
I think we might also go with the T22. We would like to be able to watch Netflix while working out.
The T22 was a nice upgrade from our Bowflex BXT216! Streaming Hulu, Netflix and Amazon is totally worth it!
The 2450 just went on sale for $2,799. Any chance it might go cheaper come Black Friday / Cyber Monday?
They get deeply discounted when the new year model comes out usually in spring. If you can’t wait it out buy when you get a good deal.
I just got it for 2,149 before taxes, so I guess it being spring does help. @@trollzone1
What workouts are there without if it? Is it worth the price if you don’t need if it capabilities?
I found the size difference to be that big I returned the 2450 2023 model.

Yes, you can stream iFIT with a subscription or use manual mode without a subscription, you can't stream from other apps or browse the internet
Big screen treadmills are a scam. Save the money and buy a cheap TV with UA-cam on it.
Love this channel
Thanks for watching!
