Nordic track treadmills

[Duckhunterbrad]

My wife and I have burnt through a couple Facebook marketplace treadmills over the last few years, and we are considering splurging on a Nordic Track X24. Anyone buy one and regret it? I really like the additional incline and decline options and "trail running" features they offer. Unfortunately, we live in a relatively low-income area so finding one used online won't happen within a reasonable distance.

I use my dreadmill only when necessary, for specific incline training or when its below zero and windy. That said, I love my Nordic track. They are very durable and the functionality is very good.

I had one for years (older model) but had to sell it when I moved. There’s no more efficient tool to train hiking up hill than an incline treadmill. You can throw on a pack or weight vest (or not), set the incline anywhere from 20% to 40%, and just start hiking. It’s also excellent for interval work. If I had the space, I’d buy another one in a heartbeat.

I bought the X24 a couple of months ago, strictly for the incline/decline range. I don't do any of the classes or anything like that but I'm sure they are good options. No issues so far, and I'm liking it. I'll put it through its paces during the winter and when ultra training picks up a bit more.

It's a big machine with a tall step up, so make sure you have room wherever you plan to put it.

What is the ceiling height for the room you have it in? Our primary workout room has 8ft ceilings

It's in my basement, 92" from floor to ceiling. I was concerned about the height, but I went in to a Scheel's to stand on one, even on incline, and measure from floor to my head. I'm 6'0" and have room to run/hike without issue. It's a little tight, but definitely not hitting my head!
