Some people prefer to have simple treadmills that come with basic features, while others prefer machines that can offer dozens of extras, the latest technology and have a price tag to go with it. The NordicTrack X32i is one that falls in the latter category. This one is part of NordicTrack’s incline series and is undoubtedly an impressive cardio machine.
The Workout Experience
To begin with, you will immediately notice that the NordicTrack X32i is extremely sturdy and it remains solid, whether you walk or run. The deck is also well-cushioned, which works in favor of those who enjoy a low-impact run, or are suffering from injuries. The 40% incline is undoubtedly great, as it is not something you see on regular treadmills.
As for the speed, it can go as high as 12 miles per hour and the quick-select buttons are very convenient and responsive. The treadmill itself remains very quiet, which is another plus. The desk measures 22 x 65 inches, which is one of the largest on a treadmill. The step-up height has not been specified, but it is higher than usual. Other than the lengthy deck, the powerful 4.25 CHP motor is best for serious runners because it is beyond the standard 3.0 CHP motor.
Footprint and Portability
The NordicTrack X32i treadmill is not foldable and it would certainly not be a good choice for a small apartment because it requires a dedicated space. This is because the machine weighs a staggering 462 pounds, which means it is not easy to lug it around.
Technology
The 32-inch smart HD touchscreen is one of the most prominent features of the NordicTrack X32i. The Android-based screen has spectacular graphics and the touchscreen itself is very responsive. It is an immersive screen that helps you make the most of your workouts. A 30-day free subscription of iFIT is available when you buy the treadmill.
This is an excellent way for you to determine if you enjoy the classes and want to continue with it or not. Other than the treadmill classes, such as walks, long-distance runs and jogs, there is a variety of on-demand meditation, strength training and yoga classes for you to explore. Other than iFIT, the NordicTrack X32i also offers you Google Maps and Bluetooth headphone connectivity features. There is also an adjustable cooling fan, dual water bottle holders and high-quality speakers.
Warranty
NordicTrack offers the same warranties on all its machines and it is no different here. There is a 10-year warranty available for the frame, two-year warranty for parts and one year warranty for labor. If you want an extended warranty, you have to pay more for it.
