How long will the NordicTrack EXP 10i last?

Weighing in at 200 lbs. the NordicTrack EXP 10i folding treadmill is built to hold users up to a 300 lb. capacity. The footprint is larger than its predecessor but still offers space saving abilities using a hydraulic mechanism that allows for easier folding. Icon offers a rather low warranty with only 10 years on the frame, 2 years on parts, and 1 year on labor which is disappointing from a manufacturer that offers lifetime guarantees on other brand names. Light use by walkers to light joggers will result in more years of service while proper care and maintenance will add even more years of longevity to this fitness machine.

Brief Overview

The NordicTrack EXP 10i folding treadmill offers a larger screen and higher-powered motor than its predecessor the EXP 7i. The overall look of the console is completely changed with the addition of a slightly larger screen and does not seem quite as bulky in design. Purchase of the 10i offers entrance to the iFit fitness network along with a 30-day free membership that allows users to travel the globe and access to a library with over 16,000 workouts – some led by world known expert fitness leaders. It is an overall solid machine for those looking to walk or jog their way to fitness health.

Overall Quality

The NordicTrack EXP 10i folding treadmill has a larger 3.5 CHP motor that while does not offer higher speeds than 12 MPH, allows for longer use of the motor in an overall capacity. Surprising the EXP 10i has entered the fray with a -3% decline that adds a whole new level of workout intensity for lower body extremities along with a standard 12% incline. Those taller in nature will appreciate the length of the 20” x 60” running belt that allows for longer strides and the ability to swing arms during workout sessions for higher cardio effects. Flex cushioning offers users the ability to choose between a real road experience or dampeners to lower painful impacts along the path to premium fitness health.
The 10” HD touchscreen is a nice complement to the console on the NordicTrack EXP 10i folding treadmill, offering a more retro look for those into stylish designs. The EXP 10i also offers Wi-Fi and the ability to connect headphones through Bluetooth capabilities to better hear trainer directions when engaging in workout sessions. Also, training comes to life with the addition of a paid iFit subscription while an integrated fan keeps sweating to a minimum during exercise fun.
