How long will the Spirit XT485ENT last?

When it comes to durability, Spirit knows what they are doing. The XT485ENT is a heavy-duty treadmill that can withstand years of use from those looking for long lasting machines to start or continue their fitness journey. Spirit has upped the warranty game with this model, not only offering their standard lifetime on the frame, motor, and deck, 10-year parts, and 1-year on labor but then throwing in a 2-year console part warranty. A moderate to heavy jogger will enjoy many years on this machine with proper care and maintenance. Even unplugging your machine after each use will help extend its life expectancy.

Brief Overview

The Spirit XT485ENT does not disappoint with its upgraded features that include the 10.1” touchscreen and additional built-in workout programs. Spirit has finally joined the technological bandwagon with this newest addition to their line and we like the direction they are heading. If your budget is under $3500, this treadmill will be a decent addition to your fitness journey.

Overall Quality

The XT485ENT shows that Spirit is now allocating budget funds to the technological and not just to the construction side of the ballpark. The XT485ENT offers a 10" touchscreen which is a huge upgrade for the XT line and is a game changer. The screen mirroring and USB charging port make it easy for you to stay connected with your favorite TV shows or videos while working out while the touchscreen offers convenience at the simple touch of your hand.
With its sturdy frame, the XT485ENT can stand up to daily use. This treadmill has a 4 HP motor that's strong enough for joggers but also not too loud in an apartment complex environment. While the 269 lb. weight will keep movement to a minimal, the foldable design does help to keep your living space from feeling cramped and restricted after your workout. The XT485ENT also features 12 mph maximum speed with 15% incline settings (found conveniently on both handles) - perfect if you want variety when exercising or need fast changes during workouts.
With powerful features like intuitive user interface and 7 built-in apps, you can take your training to the next level. The track history function that allows users to see what they have accomplished before it's too late catch up on lost time or build a legacy for years down the road! You'll never be bored with multiple workout views because this device will do everything from showing calories burned during an intense session all way through analyzing rest periods between exercises so there isn't any guesswork involved when staying healthy as humanly possible.
