My review is that I thought that this had Bluetooth integration with the monitor in the monitor having access to Wi-Fi we could go to other sites using the monitor but it's only good for iFit only and that was not clarified unless I had to read 20 pages of fine print to find it. It feels like a commercial machine but for the price point there are other machines that have much bigger screens and their screen integration to phones and devices via Wi-Fi to navigate to other websites is available. I'm actually thinking about returning this machine for that purpose and buy a different brand who has these other capabilities and won't hide the fact that the monitor is iFit only

We are sorry for any confusion caused by the features and capabilities on this treadmill.

Treadmill works great but the 9” monitor is hard to read at times. The fonts are made for a 20 year old. I’m older and sometimes find it difficult to read. There’s no way to adjust fonts and you can’t upgrade the monitor. Norditrack treadmills cost too much just for a larger monitor so I paid $150 to mount a 45” tv in front of it. Also, I found it a little ridiculous you can’t use any provided apps such as Spotify, Prime, or Netflix without subscribing to iFIT which is over priced too. iFIT charges monthly recurring dues which are more than my gym membership.

I decided to purchase this treadmill after my 15 year old Nordictrack treadmill stopped powering on after some electrical issues in my house. After researching I went with this 1250 model while it was on sale. Overall, I think it's doing well so far and a step up from my older one. It's lighter than the older ones and the mechanism to lock it in the upright position is more secure. I chose the BB delivery but I had to find a way to get it into my basement on my own. My kids and I managed to safely get this down the stairs but it is heavy and we were not going to be able to carry it. I also managed to put this completely together by myself and it's pretty sturdy. Took about 3 hours and a lot of sweat. All the tools except the screwdriver were included. Functionally, yes the screen is small but not that big of a deal. I don't think it's worth it without the iFit membership, but if you purchase the family plan and have enough people in your family to join, the membership seems worthwhile compared to the cost of gym memberships. (Family membership allows you up to 5 individuals using their own emails but one payment. iFit breaks the cost down in a monthly amount but I had to pay all up front as the whole annual payment. I didn't see an option to pay it monthly.) It is smaller, lighter, but taller than my old model but is easier on my ankles when I run. I love that it has the incline and decline. My only quip with it is that it takes a while to start up when powered down from the switch. This is due to the technological aspect. I'm still trying to get accustomed to using this in the manual mode since there's so many bells and whistles with the screen. I think the more that I use it and over the course of time I will probably start to enjoy this a lot more. I'm hoping, even with the technological pieces, that this one lasts me another 15 years too. If not, I'm going back to a basic model with only buttons, no screens.

Decided to go with the 1250 just for some incline walking (12 incline + 3 mph) and some occassional running and I do have to say its been a great purchase so far. I saw the old model in store and it was huge, but this more compact and sleek design doesn’t disappoint. I am pretty happy with it so far. It’s also really sturdy considering you follow the instructions or youtube videos correctly. Only nit pick is the monitor has a small piece of screw or small object that rattles when moving the monitor around. not sure what it is but it works fine so far. Made sure to get that protection plan!
The NordicTrack Commercial 1250 is the perfect mid-sized treadmill with a combination of features for users of all levels. Not too big, not too small, priced exactly right. The biggest selling points include its connectivity with the iFit workout app and ten″ touchscreen, automatic trainer control, and incline/decline options. It also sports a twenty″ x 60″ tread belt, which is really the beginning of the units designed for jogging and running as opposed to walking and hiking. The biggest downside is that if you opt out of the $39 per month iFit program, the screen’s value falls flat. Measuring 78.5″x 35.6″ x 64.7″ with an in-box weight 281.6 pounds, the treadmill sports up to three hundred pounds and folds quite easily with terrific front wheels. One thing I love about folding treadmills is how much easier they are to clean, lubricate, and relocate it necessary.

Excellent Treadmill – Worth Every Penny! The NordicTrack treadmill is a fantastic investment for home workouts! The build quality is solid, the cushioning is easy on the joints, and the incline/speed adjustments are smooth. The interactive iFit workouts make running more engaging, and the large touchscreen display is a great touch. It’s quiet, sturdy, and perfect for all fitness levels. Highly recommend for anyone serious about their fitness goals! The ONLY thing I wish for is that I opted for the larger screen, but I still love this model!

Solid, quiet, well built machine, all related (strictly to the purpose) functions of this treadmill should satisfy beginners to more serious practitioners. That said, the display is useless without the program iFit. Nothing else can be displayed…no HDMI or AV connection to allow external sources. If this last is important…next model up is same mechanically, $800-1000 more but you can watch Netflix

I recently bought the NordicTrack Commercial 1250Treadmill and it’s fantastic! The build is solid and the motor runs quietly. It offers smooth transitions between speeds and incline levels, perfect for walking, jogging, or running. The large, easy-to-read display, definitely worth the investment for anyone serious about their fitness! LOVE IT

Great mid-sized treadmill. Putting it together was pretty challenging, but it was overall a good purchase. Clean design and ideal for joggers/runners. The screen only works with an iFit subscription, but there is a manual option.
Spiker Posted
I didn’t use iFit, but the manual mode itself is great enough for me. The max speed it provides along with the incline and decline options, I think, makes it great for most people. Also, I felt happy I didn’t purchase higher-end models of this brand or something like Peloton.

I love this treadmill. Living in Western Pennsylvania, it's very hard to predict when you'll be able to run in the winter, so i bought this so i can train year round for marathons. I compared it to the next higher priced Nordictrack Commercial and i went and tested both out. I couldn't tell a difference except for the screen size. Well, i don't like watching a screen when i run anyhow (i only listen to music) so this level is very much worth the price and fits my needs!

Awesome treadmill! Fast, great quality, works great with or without the ifit. If you’re looking for commercial quality, this is the one! You won’t retreat this purchase.

Easy to setup, 100% recommend 2 people. Screen is a little small compared to other brands but honestly not a bad size for its use.
JacobR Posted
Solid for the price and looked at a lot of models in this price range. Have had for over and year and no complaints.
ShruthiV Posted
The product is great for both beginners as well as experienced runners. The equipment is not too heavy.
Catdadryan Posted
I like that it is a heavy duty and large option. You do have to sign up and pay for the programs to have all of the "special" workouts, otherwise you only get a basic workout. That's not a problem if you're okay with it. I do wish that the deck folded up tighter for better storage, but it is still a great item.

Love this treadmill! Quiet, smooth, easy to run on. The elevated screen is perfect so I'm not looking down while I run. Buttons are conveniently placed. Fans are great.

Very good and durable treadmill. The only disadvantage is that you need to pay for ifit yearly membership to enjoy the full benefits of the equipment in terms of the apps. Overall, we have no regret so far.
