How long will the LifeFitness Club Series + X last?
The LifeFitness Club Series + X has been built to last and combines a mixture of brushed stainless steel and aluminum that is then painted with a corrosion, stain, and chemical resistant coating. LifeFitness backs up the Cub Series + X with a lifetime frame and motor warranty, 10 years on parts, 1 year on labor, and 6 months on cosmetic parts. The warranty is incredibly generous in an age where things are not really built to last and moderate and heavy users will get a multitude of workouts from this machine with proper care and maintenance.
Brief Overview
The LifeFitness Club Series + X is a step up from the basic offerings in the Club Series and its assortment of commercial grade features and capabilities will appeal to a variety of fitness buffs. It allows the luxury of a gym quality machine in home settings and is designed to fit right into any living space despite its almost 7” long footprint. The Club Series + X is intended for both walkers and joggers and can even handle a sprint or two with its wide running surface. It is streamlined for smooth performance and is a great cardio machine to help users either start or keep on track in their fitness journeys.
Overall Quality
The LifeFitness Club Series + X offers a blend of technology and functionality along with a sleek design to appeal to a variety of users from beginners to seasoned joggers. Users will find the 22” x 60” running space ample enough for comfortable workouts while the 4.0 HP AC motor provides effortless operation along with max speeds of up to 12 MPH. Those that love to climb will find the 24” siderails handy for finding balance or just a secure hold when climbing to a 15% elevation during intensity training sessions. And no worries about knees or joints as the deck is built with 8 shock absorbing cushions that lesson the impact of either walking on running feet during operation.
The LifeFitness Club Series + X comes with a smaller 7” screen but can connect through Bluetooth technology to provide engaging workout experiences. While it does not offer entertainment features, there are 21+ built in programs along with a touchscreen keypad plus it saves previous workouts so users can challenge themselves continuously again and again. LifeFitness requires a white-glove install with this purchase which is generally built into their listed price and finance options are available for those that do not have $7000 available for spot purchasing.
