I have a NordicTrack 1750 treadmill. I purchased the iFit yearly membership. They have updated a newer software that has an additional fee of several hundred dollars. I declined the new software. Since then my machine fails on average 40% of the time and requires multiple restarts to work once this happens. The customer support told me they cannot help. I also purchased a 4 year warranty. This is also a know issue throughout the NordicTrack community. I need the issue fixed or the software included. I cannot have this 3500 dollar machine bricked do to a software update/money grab.

Hello ******,
Thank you for taking the time to address the issues you have encountered with the new iFit 2.0 Software. We appreciate your valuable feedback as we work to improve our services! Our escalations team is dedicated to handling communication directed to the executive officers of the company. I am happy to be your direct point of contact for any assistance you may need moving forward.
I see that you reached out yesterday and were able to get the machine working again. The cost for iFit remains the same and has not changed. Although our membership tiers have been updated, it appears that you have always been on a Family plan, which is now referred to as a Pro plan, with no change in cost.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out to me. I am committed to resolving this matter promptly and thank you for allowing us here at IFIT the chance to make this right!

I purchased a Nordic Trac treadmill equipped with ifit software 1 year ago. A few months ago my software auto update to the new 2.0 iOS. It ran much quicker and was more efficient. The interface was modern and it was a much better version of the old software. A few days ago the software auto reverted back to the old 1.0 iOS and no matter what I did I was unable to update it back. I spent an hour on a chat with ifit troubleshooting to no avail. And then another hour on the phone with an agent troubleshooting at which point she asked me for my part number and proceeded to tell me that the new iOS was accidentally released to all machines and that the developers fixed this problem by reverting older machines (my part number identified my machine as older even though I purchased it brand new only 1 year ago) to the old iOS. She proceeded to tell me that even though my machine is fully capable of running the new iOS, if I wanted to run the new iOS I would need to purchase a new machine. This makes no sense and is very bad business. I would like ifit to understand that it is not justifiable to force someone who has fairly new equipment that has the capacity to run the new software to have to purchase new equipment to run said software. I would like to report them for very poor business practices.

Purchased this treadmill from NordicTrac (IFIT) in 2015.Ifit sent out a software update a number of months ago that caused the console to "Brick" essentially the unit no longer turns on.Spent 2 hour on the phone troubleshooting the problem with IFIT and they eventually said I would require a new Console ant my expense ($649) for a parts supply company (*******************)

I activated a Nordic Track Commercial 1750 Treadmill on 01/01/2023 The walking deck and motor failed in Sept of 2024 My treadmill failed under the promised warranty period . IFit has lied several times about a Technician appointment being made available. On Oct 2They took money from me for an appointment they have failed to honor. After 4 broken promises to arrange a Tech visit each with a fabricated excuse as to why I was never contacted by a Technician I want a pro-rated refund for the purchase price of the Treadmill, factoring a normal life expectancy of 5 years as well as a refund of the service visit charge they took and have failed to honor. I have them 4 opportunities for a repair remedy but they have broken their word each time

I am rejecting this response because:
1) Nordic Track literally promised me in an email dated back in Oct 25the the money would be refunded already. They've held my money since 10-2-24 and failed to provide service

2) On 4 occasions they broke their agreement to have a Technician call to make the Service Appointment and failed to meet the agreed deadlines

3) Because you failed on multiple occasions to provide a repair, a pro-rated refund of the Treadmill price is the only acceptable outcome

We opened a service request on 8/19/2024 due to issues with our treadmill, purchased in March, repeatedly turning off while in use. We've corresponded for 2+ months, sometimes waiting weeks in between responses from iFit, and have yet to receive any assistance or have someone visit to repair the treadmill. Our most recent correspondence is them stating they will not honor the warranty due to the treadmill being in the garage yet we had it delivered specifically to the garage and there was never any mention of that being against the warranty. We have performed all maintenance as expected but we are unable to resolve the issue.

After reviewing your account, we have gone ahead and set up a service tech to come out and look at your machine. We apologize for the confusion, we do void the warranty due to the machine being in the garage but it also depends on the if the machine is in a enviroment controlled area and the condition of the machine, as long as you keep your machine free of dust and in a well tempature controlled area your warranty will stay in tact. We do recommend having them inside but we do take into consideration everyone's enviroment as well.
Your service order number is SO-2923897 for your records, I've also ordered a few parts that the tech may need to repair your machine. If additional parts are needed the tech will let us know and we will get those ordered as quickly as possible to get your machine repaired. Please allow 7-10 business days for the parts to arrive, once they arrive the tech will be notified and will reach out for scheduling. Please note the parts will ship directly to your home.

About three years ago, we purchased the Nordictrack (NT) x22i direct from NT. It ran great for the first 6 months but then we had issues with the incline and decline. When I called, I was blown off and told the system needed to be restarted. I tried that and it fixed it for about a month. After doing some research, I found this was a well known issue with this unit and it was clear NT would do nothing to fix it. I called back about 3 months ago to try and get this issue fixed (becasue I've had a $4,000 treadmill that I can't use safely) but they said we were out of warranty (on a machine with less than 80 hours on it). They offered to send a technician out for $160 to diagnose it and then another $160 to repair it plus whatever the part cost. I have seen countless articles and comments on how the X22i is a faulty treadmill that needs a recall on the control board at a minimum. I want at least half my money back so I can buy a reliable ************** are some references of people saying the same thing I am:Incline Motor Malfunction: According to GymCreek, the NordicTrack incline motor often faces issues where the treadmill becomes stuck in the incline or upright position, failing to return to a flat level. This can be due to a calibration error or, in some cases, a fault with the incline motor itself, requiring recalibration or professional repair. Garage Gym Reviews also mentions that NordicTrack x22i treadmills frequently experience problems with the incline feature, recommending a full recalibration to reset the incline limits. If this doesnt work, the motor may need servicing, as incline malfunctions are common among NordicTrack models .

Placed an order for nordic track 1750 treadmill on 9/24 and it was delivered in 10/5. Spoke via chat with live person throughout the purchase process and via email. Even received a $75.00 discount. Now here comes the scam.. At no time was it mentioned from the representative **** ******** that ifit was involved and I would be required to have a ifit membership at any level (pro or otherwise) for the machine to be operable. This is the situation, it is not operable. I do not require or need membership to run on a treadmill. I ordered specifically to run indoors and use the screen to stream while I exercise. This is a scam including a refund which they steal $****** that includes a return fee of ****** + ****** for setup + 10% of something related to members which I have nothing to do with. It took 35 minutes on hold before I could speak with a person. That after numerous times in chat which I was told someone would get back to me with the price of the screen. Now reviewing the online reviews where if you make trouble for the company they have the ability to make the machine totally inoperable via an automated connection.Yes, i was asked if we compensate you will you keep the machine. I said no to a discounted membership price and simply waive membership and allow me the ability to simply use the machine. Having not used the machine, I am writing to request full and total refund. I had no desires to have this experience. So if they can provide a fee of ******, my inconvenience fee is precisely the same amount for being scammed. May you please assist with the return of merchandise and full refund of the 100% of purchase $2,780.38.

Complaint: 22475014

I am rejecting this response because: the refund does not make me whole but creates a cost for having this negative experience. I purchased with the intent to fully utilize the treadmill and I deserve full access at no additional charge. Perhaps if ****, *******, and Prime were made aware that you are dangling their products to profit from your customers, they would have the same concerns and response. Policy or otherwise, there was zero mention by the chat and email exchanges with NordicTrack agent of this major commitment. Also note the false advertising where IFIT is pretending to be NordicTrack. That makes your policy null and void.
Options should be either full refund or full access to the treadmill. Forcing someone to have a long term relationship with you (be it financial or otherwise) is ****.

I purchased a brand-new unit on June 7th, 2024, and it was delivered a few weeks later. One or two days after the delivery, the machine was already having issues. I called and requested a replacement, and they convinced me to have it fixed just to have more issues. It's been almost three weeks since I called customer service, and they ordered some more parts, but I have yet to hear from anyone. I need that unit to be replaced ASAP; they sold me a used unit. They sent me a refurbished unit; I need it to be replaced. ****.
