don't waste TIME and MONEY
Model Number:
NordicTrack ZS Commercial Folding Treadmil
"the packaging is very very very bad. I'm on my second treadmill and both are broken after setup.
while the machine is sturdy. Really, the whole belt and motor system is WEAK. The belt is always out of balance no matter how much you adjust. I've had two motors die out on me so far. I'm only 220lbs. Not even close to the the 350lb max they advertise. Plus, I've yet to really jog on either machine!!! just walk!
icon's answer to everything is... what part number is that sir? Once they run out of parts to mail you they send out a technician that tells you that machine is a dud....
i'm going to make an investment and buy a more expensive machine that has at least a 3 year at home warranty. NOTHING from icon.
Costco is great by the way."

Great name but bad product
Cons: did not work
"I knew before I bought this product it was going to be a 350lb bear and it would take work getting it home and setting it up but it would be worth it.
Within seconds of turning it on the oncline went nuts and never worked. After 7 months of trying to replace the motor, mather board and controller we finally returned the item. The only workoutt I got from this tread mill was bringing it home and packing it up and back to the store."

What's up with that ???
Model Number:
NordicTrack ZS Commercial Folding Treadmill
"I ORDERED A NORDIC TRACK TREADMILL FROM COSTCO.COM ABOUT A MONTH AGO AND FROM THE FIRST DAY I HAD A PROBLEM, THE BELT START SHIFTING AND WHEN CALLED THE SERVICE THEY WANT US TO FIX IT OUR SELF.
THE WARRANTY SHOULD BE ONE YEAR BUT THE COMPANY TOLD US THAT THEY CAN SEND THE TECHNICIAN BUT ONLY ONE TIME AND AFTER THAT I HAVE TO PAY BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT PAYING MORE THAN ONCE, ALSO THE MACHINE STOP WORKING AFTER 2 WEEKS AND BECAUSE THE BELT IS ON BACK ORDER THEY ASKED US TO WAIT ANOTHER MONTH FOR THE BELT AND THE CONSUL WE DECIDED TO RETURN THE TRADE MILL AND GET A DIFFERENT BRAND FROM COSTCO.
I THINK THAT COSTCO SHOULDN'T DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY BECAUSE THE SERVICE IS REALLY BAD."

Just like so many others
"I bought this based on reviews on other websites - what a hunk of junk. Console stopped responding about 3 minutes after turning it on. Packaging is a joke. They literally threw pieces in a big open box and they bang around until they get to your house. Nothing was secured and probably lead to many complaints. Icon is suppose to be a big fancy treadmill company, but as many others have found, it's QA is non-existent."

Awful product and service
"We purchased this treadmill and were only able to use it 10 times or so before returning it. It broke, was serviced (after a TWO MONTH wait!), broke again and then went back. Beware of this treadmill!"

Horrible purchase

"Though the treadmill was easy to put together, it only worked for the first two weeks. The speed slowly decreased and eventually stopped. Costumer service is horrible as well. They are no help. We will return it back to Costco."

Bad Warranty and Customer Service
Pros: when working this was a great treadmill Cons: broke less than two weeks after purchase.
"I purchased this treadmill less than 20 days ago. The first two weeks I was very happy with my purchase. Since then, I am not. It stopped reading the speed. I adjusted the sensor and calibrated the treadmill while on the phone with the customer service agent. No luck. The told me I need a new display and it will take 2 - 3 months before they can ship this item since they are out of stock. I just made this purchase from Costco, how can they be out of stock?
I asked for a supervisor at the customer care for NordicTrack and was told they are not available to talk with customers. This had to be the worst experience with any Call Center I have ever had. I will never purchase from NordicTrack again."

worst purchase ever
Model Number:
NordicTrack ZS Commercial Folding Treadmill
"I will not give any star if I can. I just got the treadmill this morning and put it together. The incline always keeps at 12%. I used the troubleshooting and it didn't work. Then I called their customer care and was told to have a credit card in hand to pay for warranty work. I'm considering to return it to costco.
Don't be fooled by the overall rating (3.5 stars now). There are 23 reviews and 7 of them returned the product or are waiting for further service to fix the problems. It will be 30% possibility that this product fails during first several runs. Consider its price and heavy weight to handle, I will not suggest anyone to buy it."

Item stops working shortly after purchase
Cons: difficult to move into house, stops working after one use
"The first time I used this machine it worked fine. The second time I got on the machine, turned the speed up to 3 mph and instead the belt started flying at 7+ mph. I had to step to the sides of the machine due to the extreme speed and when I hit the stop button it beeped but nothing happened. The emergency stop cord had to be pulled in order to get the machine to stop. Once I got back on the machine the time and distance meters kept running but the machine would not work. I tried to reset the machine and change outlets etc but nothing worked. This should not have happened after using the machine only once!!"

Worst purchase ever
Pros: none Cons: difficult to install, does not work
"This probably is the worst purchase I have ever made. I would have rated 0 star if I can. IT SIMPLY DOES NOT WORK! Just like the other reviewer mentioned, the installation is very difficult due to it's size and weight. And after I put all the pieces together, guess what? It does not work. It turned on fine, then after running by itself for a few seconds, it stops. I thought the belt might be too tight so I adjusted it, no help. It stops after running either a few seconds or a few minutes. Called customer service today and was told the same thing as what the other reviewer was told - something wrong with the motherboard. What's worse, they are now out of motherboard, which means I have to wait until their next shipment arrives. And they don't even know when their next shipment will arrive. I really doubt whether installing a motherboard will help after reading other buyer's comments. I guess I am going to take it back to the store and get another one."

Do NOT buy - stopped working second time I used it
Pros: good size long belt very sturdy Cons: didn't work after i received it!!
"I purchased this Treadmill about two months ago. When it came in, it was very heavy but I managed to set it up in my bedroom. Several of the heavier bolts on the bottom were so difficult to get in, especially if you are putting it together yourself. You had to line up the holes "just right".
The first time I used it, it was great. Ran fine, the iPod 3.5 mm plug worked great, I was happy. THEN day two - I turned it on, and the belt wouldn't turn. I called ICON and the ran through the diagnostics and thought it was the controller board. CHARGED ME to ship the replacement controller board and HAD ME INSTALL IT MYSELF. That didn't fix it. (this was two weeks later, after my part arrived). Called AGAIN. Ran through the diagnostics 5 times. Then they thought it was the console, or maybe the wire harness. Got both in (another week later) and I installed the console myself. Still no luck. Can't replace the wire harness because I can't get the old one out. Called ICON up again, told them to get a technician out as soon as possible and THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME $45 FOR THE SERVICE CALL ON A MACHINE THAT SHOULD HAVE WORKED GREAT OUT OF THE BOX!!! I said absolutely not! It is brand new and should have worked right out of the box! The service call is free, I have to wait yet another week for the technician to come out. I am very skeptical that things will get resolved at this point. I will probably take this back and get another brand - perhaps Sole."

never has worked
Cons: the tread has never worked
"I would not recommend this tread mill to anyone. I have had it for 3 months, called the service department twice after getting the phone number to call from my local Costco. Two different parts were sent, still not working. They attempted to charge us for the second call. It will be going back to my local Costco. It is a lemon."

Returned It
"When we raised up the belt to walk on an incline, then you had to bend over to reach the handles. Very uncomfortable position for your back. We have owned and used many treadmills over the years. This one had great "bells and whistles", but requires standing in an uncomfortable position."

Poor Customer Service
Pros: good cushioning and sound system Cons: $45 charge for warranty work, speed fluctuates on its own, console is too far forward - hard to reach, heart rate sensors are not accurate, expensive $100 heart rate strap not included
"We purchased this treadmill based on high marks by a review site. However, our unit fluctuates in speed on its own and the heart rate monitor is way off (by the way, your Polar heart rate strap will not work with this unit. You have to buy theirs at $100). With these problems, we contacted customer service expecting to get this fixed under warranty. Well its not free! They want $45 to do warranty work - each and every time you need it. What is the use of a warranty if you have to pay for it. Therefore, we are taking are unit back to Costco. What a pain. Save yourself the trouble and buy a better treadmill. The only plus is that Costco always stands behind your purchases and we can still return the unit. Thanks Costco."

Incline motor failed
Pros: very sturdy and feels solid Cons: very very heavy. not easy to fold
Model Number:
Nordictrack Com 1500
"1 year and 1 week after buying this treadmill, the incline motor failed. The incline is now stuck at 12%. Called customer service and they asked me to run few diagnostics and concluded that the motor has failed and needs replacement ($150). Thanks to costco's return policy, I will be taking it back to costco.
I have seen few more people complain about the incline motor as well. Its really frustrating to take such a heavy piece back to costco to return.
I like the treadmill though. Its very sturdy and feels good. I might end up buying the same machine again!"

NT Commercial Folding TM
Pros: motor sound system Cons: hard deck horrible customer service
"I bought this treadmill approximately one year ago. Overall, it is an OK treadmill with a strong motor and a great sound system, but has its share of problems.
I wish the deck were a bit softer. This deck is definitely much harder than other treadmills I have owned, without much give.
The TV is nice, and keeps me entertained while I run. For some reasone, it does not get all the channels that my cable provides (excluding HD channels). I have talked to customer support, and they agree this is a problem, but do not know how to fix it.
That brings me to the customer service. Oh, where do I begin? Icon Fitness has probably the worst customer service in the industry. While the TM is under a full warranty, they will ship you the part, but charge you for shipping. If you need a tech to come out and repair the problem (which shouldn't have occured in the first place), they charge $45 for "travel fee".
Overall, an average treadmill, and horrible customer service."

One drawback
"The treadmill is sturdy, easy to operate and works well, consistently. My only issue with it is the odor; our unit gives off a very pungent unpleasant smell that has not dissipated in the 5 months we've owned it. If I knew about this at the time of purchase, I would not have bought this unit."

So far, so good
Pros: great price, big motor, free delivery, huge walking/running pad, folds up Cons: very heavy
Model Number:
NordicTrack ZS Commercial Folding Treadmill
"I was worried about buying this because of the mix of bad reviews. Not sure if every machine is bad, or just a batch. Regardless since Costco has an amazing return policy, I decided to chance it.
My local Costco had these in stock for the same price but since it is a huge machine and quite heavy, I decided to take advantage of the free delivery.
It was delivered a week and a half ago. No problems with the delivery. Note: this treadmill is heavy and moving it down stairs will not be easy.
Was able to set it up by myself in a couple of hours. It should have taken less than an hour but ran into a snag with the bolts not aligning (HINT - using a flashlight, align the bolts from the top looking down into the tube with someone else turning them from the bottom as you align them).
We've been using the treadmill for the past 8 days with no problems at all. My wife and daughter both love it.
For the price, you cannot beat this treadmill. I'll keep my fingers crossed that it does not break."
