How long will the Star Trac 8 Series TRx 19in Touchscreen last?

The Star Trac 8 Series TRx 19" Touchscreen is not your average machine. It weighs in at 470 lbs, which helps provide exceptional stability and durability! A moderate to heavy runner weighing less than 500 lbs. could get plenty of years from this treadmill as long as they follow a routine maintenance schedule. The Star Trac 8 Series TRx 19" Touchscreen is offered with both a commercial and residential warranty. The home warranty covers a 10-year frame, 5-years MCB, parts and labor, 10-year all other parts, and 3-years labor. Other manufacturers at this price range offer lifetime frame warranties.

Brief Overview

When you're looking for an excellent commercial treadmill experience on a non-budget friendly treadmill, the Star Trac 8 Series TRx 19" Touchscreen should be at the top of your go-to list. Yet on the other hand it does come with a patented deck suspension system making it easy on one’s legs while providing plenty of support with every step; plus, there are other features such as intuitive user interface which make this a decent workout machine no matter your fitness level.

Overall Quality

Treadmills are a great way to get in shape, but they can be expensive. If you have $12K lying around and want the best of most everything then this commercial grade treadmill is exactly what you’re looking for! The Star Trac 8 Series TRx 19" Touchscreen is outfitted with features only seen on higher end pieces such as 22" x 60" running space (which leaves plenty of room when exercising), 5 HP motor that provides maximum power output per stroke while maintaining efficiency, and 3.5” wide rollers that allow runners more support during intense workouts. It comes upgraded from the TR with a 20% incline and max speeds of 15 MPH. There is also 23+ built in programs available with the 19” console choice. With HDMI streaming options as well as Bluetooth connectivity built in this display, it has something everyone can use no matter their needs from serious athletes looking to get in some high-volume training sessions all day or to someone just beginning their new fitness journey.
