NordicTrack T Series T 8.5 S Treadmill



NordicTrack T 8.5 S (NTL11219)  is a modern commercial level treadmill for home use with high end features, very sturdy construction and premium look and feel. In the box you’ll get an iFit membership for live interactive training with Google StreetView and 16,000+ on-demand workouts by world class trainers for a whole year.

It comes with a 3.5 CHP DurX Commercial Plus motor that offers the smart-response drive system with reduced vibrations and self-cooling for your quick and tough workouts. It has a fairly compact space saving foldable design with a good size walking belt that measures 20 x 60 inches. With the decent FlexSelect™ cushioning your knees and joints will not suffer. The maximum user weight capacity is around 300 pounds on its sturdy frame, which should accommodate a big percentage of adults.

The 3.5 CHP DurX™ Commercial Plus motor gives you a running speed of up to 12 mph and an incline control between 0-12% with the digital speed and incline control. The T 8.5 S Treadmill has a large 10-inch full color capacitive pivoting touch display. It has the Start/Stop, Incline Up and Down, Speed Up and Down, Auto Breeze Fan buttons on the 10” display panel as well as the quick speed and incline buttons from 0 to 12 each. As a very heavy duty product it weighs 254 pounds and measures 35.5W x 78.5L x 59H inches.

But you can fold it and move it easily on its small but solid transportation wheels. The walking platform is 10 inches high off the floor and the treadmill is 59 inches tall, which should be OK even in rooms with low ceilings. This treadmill has built-in Bluetooth Audio capabilities and Aux outlet and you can listen to your music on your phone or other devices wirelessly via the dual 2” digitally amplified speakers. The sound quality is actually very good on this treadmill.

You have 50 on-board workout programs or you can customize your own with different speed, incline and time settings. There is no specific tablet or smartphone holder on this unit but you can put your device just below the NordicTrack T 8.5 S (NTL11219) Treadmillworkout fan. It comes with a generous warranty of two years for the labor, five years for the parts and lifetime for the frame and motor. So you can have a peace of mind that you can get assistance for replacement or repairs or any other problems you may encounter.

Please note that you can only purchase this product at Amazon.com for a proper warranty as they are the authorized seller. And the manufacturer- NordicTrack can not guarantee authenticity or quality if you buy it from non-Amazon sellers or websites. If you want to get in shape and stay fit in the comfort of your home and if you have the budget for this fairly expensive commercial grade treadmill, we highly recommend it. NordicTrack T 8.5 S is a great fitness product that is well worth the price.
