NordicTrack® 8600 Treadmill Review

$3295.00

Nordic Track says "For those looking for the rigorous construction and performance of NordicTrack’s commercial fitness line, the 8600 treadmill is a good place to start. It boasts commercial-grade features like an incredibly powerful 5.0 HP commercial-grade motor, Power Incline™ up to a challenging 15% and a long, 60-inch treadbelt for long, uninhibited strides. To help protect your joints from harmful impact, the 8600 features DuraSoft Compound™ cushioning. It combines a super-soft foam deck with impact isolators that support the deck above the frame. Features CardioGrip™ pulse sensors to track and stay in your target heart-rate zone. Compatible with additional iFIT.com workouts in addition to 10 built-in programs".

What We Like : The Nordic Track 8600 Treadmill is a machine that we like mainly because of that whopping big 5.0 motor, which is commercial grade so it should take a good pounding for many years to come. It also has most of the gadgets we have come to expect from todays treadmills.

What We Dislike : Our only real complaints are that this Treadmill doesn't fold and It is expensive for a Nordic Track.

Specification Folding: No Heart Rate: Yes Maximum Incline: 15% - power Maximum Speed: 12mph Motor Size: 5.0 continuous duty Running Surface: 60in x 20in Our Recommendation :

As a comparison, Smooth treadmills from Smooth Fitness should be considered.In terms of build quality, design, and sheer value for money, these treadmills are better than other brands costing twice or three times as much – you will find it hard to beat Smooth Treadmills.
