Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great machine. iFit is great!! Having the trainers control your incline and speed is pretty cool. You can override the speed and incline if too advance or if you want to kick it up a notch higher than the program you’re doing. The machine is quiet and smooth. Fans work great and the speakers are pretty loud. Contrary to what other are saying, yes you can watch TV on your treadmill. There are YouTube videos on how to access privilege mode which is where you can access the browser. To save you time: 1) turn on treadmill 2) let it load up to iFit screen 3) in blank space, tap 10x on screen 4) wait 7 seconds 5) tap 10x for the 2nd time 6) privileged mode will appear at bottom of screen 7) at bottom of screen swipe up 8) 3 icons will appear (click on the circle) 9) next screen you will see couple icons 10) swipe up and more icons will appear 11) click on browser icon 12) from there you can go to any website (YouTube, YouTube TV, Netflix, Prime, Hulu etc) 13) on whatever site you choose log in if you already have a subscription and enjoy watching) 14) to get back to iFit, at bottom of screen, swipe up 15) tap the circle icon 16) swipe up again 17) tap the iFit icon 18) if you want to lower the trainer’s voice, start a workout and tap screen and you will see mixer icon 19) lower/mute the trainer voice 20) repeat process to go back to browser and watch whatever you chose (Netflix, YouTube etc) And you can use the volume button on the console to control volume of whatever you’re watching. This will work for other Nordictrack and Proform treadmills as well Enjoy treadmill, it’s pretty awesome!! The 22 inch screen is worth it!!

Love the large screen, wide tread size, strong motor, and multiple control options. Ability to use buttons on sides of screen plus touch control options on screen. Unfortunately ifit software is glitchy with stuttering while using trainer controlled videos, but this does not affect the treadmills speed or functionality. Read online that this is a recent problem after update to software, helpfully will be resolved soon. Love that ifit subscription is not required either, can function as normal treadmill without having to pay subscription fees. Ifit did come free for 1 year with purchase, while description only stated 1 month.

Before purchasing this treadmill, I was unable to run an Entire >1 Lap without stopping. In less than 2 weeks, I was able to push myself beyond my limits and I was able to complete The Entire >1 Lap without stopping, thus saving my career by passing my PT Test. It's collecting dust now, but I'll always have the memories.

It's really excellent. Super heavy and huge, so make sure to pay for delivery and installation, especially if you are on your own. The machine is really high quality, and supports harder workouts. The programming is great. Ifit is awesome because of the auto-programmed trainer led difficulty shifts feel much more like a real world workout, and way more engaging than just staring at a bunch of progress data. If you are serious about a life change - this is WELL worth it. Just a couple cons - but in know way would prevent me from buying the machine: a) The screen isn't always crystal clear during ifit b) There isn't a place to put up a different device for viewing, or use the giant screen with other video apps, which frankly feels like a waste

We got this for our employee gym room and so far it’s a big hit.

Super Super perfect and works good I love everything from Bestbuy, thank you so much

The belt developed a cut within the first 15 days of use. Best Buy said they would replace it with a new equipment, so that way Best Buy did a good job, although I had to go through the hassle of setting up the replacement. Disappointed with NordicTrack's quality!

I had my treadmill delivered. Make sure they put the box down flat (not on the side) and the letters on the box should not be upside down, otherwise, you'll have to muscle this thing around to get it upright and it's heavy. I assembled this myself and it was a bit of a challenge for a very fit and chiseled male with impressive upper and lower body strength. The most challenging part is having to hoist the conveyer section of the unit up so you can install a crossbar. You can get creative and figure out how to safely make this move. All put together the unit is impressive. I've been on plenty of treadmills at the gym but this unit is a notch above once you see the console. It's wide and that monitor is nice. And if you're like me trying to weigh the pros and cons as to why you should shell out the big bucks, well, here's what I didn't expect: I have a treadmill in my living room. I work from home. It's convenient to just hop on this thing and go and then get off for a meeting. At lunch or dinner I'm back on it for at least 30m and I don't have to get off and get in my car to drive home. I used to have to prepare for the gym or to run on the street and that's all in the past. I can run in my jammies...but I don't. If you haven't run on a treadmill with a huge monitor while following a trainer or pack of people in a marathon, then you're going to love it, yes, you will fall in love with this thing. Having that visual helps with the cadence or your run. You'll double love that the treadmill is changing speed to maintain pace with the runners and the incline matches the steepness of the terrain, so going up a hill - you're going to feel it - and coming back down the hill - you're going to feel it. This thing has a negative incline so you work out a different set of muscles. You can detach from the trainer and adjust your own incline and/or speed at any time. I give the machine 5-stars. iFit gets 3-stars. iFit clutters the startup screen with junk for other workouts. Hit the "Filter" button to narrow your what they show you. iFit doesn't allow you to continue where you left off so you'll be looking at the same scenery and listening to the same conversation every time. Yes, there's a descent amount of content but you'll likely gravitate to specific types of workouts and you'll be saying "been here - heard that" after some time. They swap out content so you won't be trapped. Sometimes I will run and listen to the trainer but most of the time I have headphones on so I'm lost in the visual of the trainer with the scenery. They do this part well. I give them a B on their video quality. I have fiber. The trainers will take you running in the mountains, desert, beach, and cites across the globe - very cool. It comes with 1-year iFit membership (Best Buy spec sheet said 30-days) and it says I can have 3 more family members open an account on the same machine for tracking which is nice to have. The free content isn't so bad so if you don't want to sign up after 1-year you still get to run but with limit content. There's also a way to run your monitor in admin mode and surf for content on the web (youtube). I had to call iFit because signing up on the machine failed. Thankfully they have good service. I nice lady in Idaho made it all better. I had read plenty of reviews before making this purchase. Especially where people were complaining about defects or breakdowns. You have to go into this accepting the fact that machines breakdown. Electronics fail and moving parts fail. I purchased this from Best Buy because I wanted the Geek Squad warranty on top of the manufactures support. I'm not alone with any problems that arise within 5 years. I know it takes time for parts and a technician to manifest, I know this because I've seen gym equipment sit broken for one to three weeks. I'll find something to do in the meantime.

I’ve been using the NordicTrack Commercial 2950 for three weeks, and I would highly recommend it. I don’t usually write reviews, but this treadmill is a large purchase, and I wanted to share my experience with others who might think of buying it. Delivery Best Buy delivered the machine on the promised day/time-period. It’s a really large, heavy box and the delivery team were thankfully able and willing to place it in a basement room. Assembly I was able to assemble the treadmill largely by myself. I needed help installing the display monitor and installing the storage release on the bottom. The instruction manual contains a QR code to download an app with a 3D manual. I would recommend using the app with the paper manual. It took a few hours to assemble. Treadmill When I bought the treadmill online, it said it came with a 30 day iFit trial, but it actually contained a gift card (inside the box) for a 1 year subscription. Also it wasn’t advertised online, but it came with a chest strap heart monitor. The heart monitor is great to use during iFit workouts, as the machine will automatically adjust speed based on your heart rate. I have had problems when I’m walking that the heart rate monitor doesn’t connect (assume low heart rate) or it doesn’t connect quickly (again think low heart rate). A few times it has just stopped working during a run. There is no instruction manual included with the heart rate monitor, so I had to research how to use one. It looks like it has a battery, so I assume I’ll need to replace at some point. The display monitor is awesome. It’s touch screen. It oddly doesn’t have a turn off functionality, so I turn off the whole machine using the on/off switch at the base of the treadmill. There’s no native ability to download or use other apps like Netflix, etc on the monitor. All the iFit videos stream via a WiFi network. The music can be turned off or I can stream music via my phone to the treadmill. The display monitor looks like it has a camera and microphone. They're not needed for the iFit videos, so I've covered them up. There are two fans under the monitor. They’re not very strong, but I usually have them going during a run. The treadmill’s track can be pulled up for storage. I’ve used treadmills for decades, and it’s always been monotonous and boring running. The iFit videos (included 1 year trial; 5 users) are awesome. The treadmill automatically adjusts incline similar to incline on video (something I believe Peloton cannot do), and the heart rate monitor adjusts speed. The incline goes negative, which is something I’ve never had in a treadmill and is awesome for working those different muscles. The instructors and scenery are incredible, and it’s easy to forget you’re running on a treadmill. It’s also fun to tell people that I “ran” in Costa Rica, Croatia, etc. this morning. I did loose a tiny screw during assembly, and NordicTrack helped me quickly, sending a new one via mail. I would recommend the treadmill. I like it so much that I’m debating purchasing a NordicTrack bicycle too.

The treadmill is sturdy and is well built my wife loves it and the i fit program. We bought the proform 900 but was not sturdy. Also i put the treadmill together myself due to the initial installation was of the proform was installed Incorrectly. If you know how install yourself because you want get the installation fees back if they install Incorrectly i lost 200 in installation fees and best buy wanted me to pay for the new installation again thats why i installed the nordictrack myself

I’ve only been using for two weeks but really happy with purchase so far. I’m getting used to the start/stop since it’s a little abrupt but it is very smooth when running. Plenty of room on belt and incline changes are also smooth. I’m running on average five miles at a eight minute pace and it is stable. Nice large screen and iPhone easily connects to speakers. Appreciate the different fan levels but wish you could angle/tilt for direction.

So, you've decided to embark on a journey with the NordicTrack Commercial 2950 Treadmill, the treadmill that makes running indoors feel almost as exciting as watching paint dry. Let's break down the thrilling features, shall we? Firstly, the 22" touchscreen – because nothing says "I'm serious about fitness" like checking your email while jogging. Who needs the great outdoors when you can have the great virtual outdoors right in front of you? The incline and decline feature is a real game-changer. Now you can simulate the experience of running up and down hills without ever leaving your living room. Because let's be honest, who doesn't dream of running uphill while binge-watching their favorite show? And the belt speed – it goes from "brisk walk" to "are you sure this isn't a jet engine?" in seconds. Perfect for those moments when you want to go from zero to regret in record time. In conclusion, the NordicTrack Commercial 2950 Treadmill is the epitome of indoor fitness innovation. It's like running in the great outdoors, minus the fresh air, scenery, and any chance of unexpected wildlife encounters. Happy running, or should I say, happy virtual sprinting to nowhere!

Bought this in July 2021 and within 4 months it started acting up (i.e., belt stopped after 2 miles), then about 3 months ago it just stopped all together and now it won't even boot up. The video quality is also super poor and very pixelated, constantly buffering, and frequently loses its wifi connection. We have 1 gig internet speed and a modem strong enough to reach the computers in the basement (w/o extenders)...the treadmill is about 12 feet from the modem. I called NordicTrack about this and they told me to call iFit, who tried very hard to be helpful, but was not able to fix the issue. The machine itself is sturdy and feels pretty solid, just the electronics that suck. I did buy the extra protection, so hopefully they will be able to fix the machine.

Very pleased with purchase as it’s great for indoor workouts. Screen is also very big and clear with great picture to follow along with I-Fit. Would recommend.

If your looking for all the bells and whistles, this is a great option. Bluetooth capabilities to sync your phones music while you work out BUT you can't stream any shows to the huge screen. You can run upto 15miles per hour BUT if the machine calculates based on your profile height and weight that you're pushing too hard, it'll shutdown - like hard! Like someone just yanked the power cord. A neat feature is that it has springs under the board so it'll cushion your run a bit if you like. You can use built in Google maps to run around a neighborhood BUT it's a laggy. A good thing is that the "buttons" for thr incline and speed have been pretty responsive.

Mixed review. Love the size, and the iFit is great. First week was fine, but now on the third week there are a lot of creaks and noise coming when I run. I'm pretty heavy, 220, but it's rated up to 300. Love it so far, but concerned about the longevity if it's starting the noise after only 3 weeks. Not sure if there is something for maintenance on a monthly basis? Would rate it higher if not for that concern

Haven't worked out in years, and honestly don't think it's the machine but the tours and locations of the tours that get me on this treadmill. Huge screen, entertaining instructors, and exotic locations, I actually look forward to walking to learn about Turkey, Zimbabwe or trek to Everest base camp. It really adds a whole new element to exercise. Also purchased a laptop holder so I can work while walking at a lower speed. Haven't found any negatives yet, with the exception of only 10 minute pause, but amazing machine and iFIT subscription is a must!

We have had this treadmill for a year now. We LOVE it! I use it almost everyday. IFIT is amazing and worth every minute. I just started learning Yoga & Pilates through it. We also have the bike and just purchased the elliptical. The bonus is, when you buy a Nordic track, you get a month free of IFIT from Best Buy and a year from Nordic track. Then when you and your family members get 200 workouts, you get a free month. There is so much to do & love about IFIT and the quality of Nordic track together, make this equipment worth every penny.

I've had it now for less than 2 years (bought it 12/2021) and I've had multiple problems with it. Both the drive motor and main controller have now had to be replaced. And Best Buy TotalTech has refused to honor the extra 2 year warranty that I got by being a TotalTech member, even though I see on my Best Buy TotalTech app that I currently have the Best Buy Protection Plan until 12/29/23 on this item. But each time I talked with TotalTech in person or on the phone (or even when I spoke with a supervisor) they said they cannot honor the plan and I would have to deal with NotdicTrac directly. So I have, and I've been paying out of pocket for all the repairs and service calls and it's still not fixed. After the last technician was out to replace the drive motor, the belt suddenly runs backwards. I called the tech and he said I have to call NodicTrac again to get it back on the schedule. If I'd known I'd have so many issues with this, I would NEVER have bought it - and I absolutely wouldn't have bought it with Best Buy since they can't stand behind what they promise (and charge you for).

We are coming up on a year with the treadmill and we love it. Would definitely reccomend. We waited to splurge on a good quality treadmil and it was worth it.
