NordicTrack Commercial 1750 Review: Is It Your Best Home Treadmill?

Consumers Best Verdict: NordicTrack Highlights
In our nordictrack 1750 review, the 1750 stands out for its sturdy build, roomy 20" x 60" deck, responsive motor, and immersive 14"-class touchscreen with iFit’s global workouts and studio classes. The SpaceSaver folding frame helps reclaim space, and the deck cushioning is kind on knees. Downsides? It’s heavy, assembly takes a minute, and iFit is a paid ecosystem. Still, as an everyday training partner from a brand we trust, the value holds up. My honest read: catch it on a good sale and you’ll feel like you “leveled up” your home gym overnight.
Look, after a lot of miles on the latest 1750, my take is simple: this is the do‑it‑all treadmill most homes actually need. It’s powerful enough for speed work, smooth for long runs, and the incline/decline plus iFit AutoAdjust keeps workouts engaging when motivation dips. It’s not feather‑light or whisper‑quiet, and the best features shine with an iFit sub, but the overall balance of performance, comfort, and smart features is hard to beat in 2025. If you’ve been waiting for a sign—yeah, this might be it.
In-Depth Look: NordicTrack Features & Considerations
Core Features & Consumer Benefits
The 1750 blends strong hardware with thoughtful software—the combo most people notice on day one and appreciate on day 100.
Hands‑free coaching with iFit AutoAdjust
Speed and incline/decline shift automatically to match trainer cues or terrain, so you can focus on form and breathing.
Real‑world terrain with incline/decline
Train hills (+15%) and gentle descents (around −3%) to better mimic outdoor routes and build strength without guesswork.
Joint‑friendly deck and full stride length
A cushioned 20" x 60" belt gives tall runners space and walkers a forgiving surface for everyday use.
Stable power for intervals
A robust motor holds pace changes smoothly, keeping sprints snappy and long runs steady—fewer hiccups, more flow.
SpaceSaver folding design
Folds up with a lift assist to free floor space; helpful in multipurpose rooms and shared living areas.
Important Considerations & Potential Downsides
- Best features live behind iFit
You can run manually without a membership, but AutoAdjust, mapped routes, and guided programs are where it really shines.
- Large footprint and heavy frame
It’s sturdy—which is great—yet moving it solo or fitting it into tight apartments can be a pain.
- Assembly takes time
Expect a solid, step‑by‑step build; two people make it much easier and safer.
- Service and pricing fluctuate
NordicTrack’s support has improved, but experiences vary; pricing changes seasonally, so timing your purchase helps.
Who Is the NordicTrack Best For?
Everyday runners who want structure
iFit programs and AutoAdjust make consistent training feel easier—and frankly, more fun.
Hill lovers and outdoor simulators
The incline/decline range adds realism for hikers, trail runners, and anyone prepping for rolling routes.
Families sharing one machine
A roomy deck, smooth motor, and multi‑profile iFit support fit mixed goals under one roof.
Recovery‑minded athletes
Softer deck cushioning helps reduce impact fatigue during higher‑frequency sessions.
Tech‑forward users
If you enjoy guided classes, scenic runs, and data‑rich feedback, the 1750 hits a sweet spot.
Who Might Want to Explore Other Options?
- Strict budget shoppers
If you just need simple walks or jogs, a basic non‑screen treadmill can save serious cash.
- Small‑space dwellers
The 1750 folds, but it’s still big and heavy—compact treadmills or walkers may fit better.
- Subscription‑averse buyers
If you don’t want ongoing fees, look for models with robust built‑in programs.
- Elite sprinters or specialty training
If you need very high top speeds or ultra‑firm decks, consider pro‑grade options.
