Model overview:
The Nordic X32i Incline Treadmill gets a top grade at Treadmillreviews.com and is one of the highest quality treadmills in the $3,000 - $4,000 price range. With solid construction and loaded with high-end features, the X32i is one of the best treadmills you can buy, period. This is an excellent treadmill for any skill level, from walkers to runners to those preparing for a race.
If you like top-notch features and a gym quality feel, the Nordic X32i Incline Treadmill is for you.
Polished features on this incline treadmill justify the high-end price tag, and you won’t be disappointed. The X32i comes with a one-month subscription to interactive iFit workouts and a 50+ iFit Coach library bonus. The hands-free incline control gives you versatility and ease while training at home.
The Nordic X32i has one of the highest-rated motors you’ll find on a home treadmill with the 4.25 CHP DurX™ Commercial Plus Motor1. The deck is one of the largest on the market at 22” x 65, allowing for taller exercisers with large strides. Reflex Cushioning on the X32i continues the outstanding series of treadmills by NordicTrack. Deck cushioning makes a massive difference in the amount of impact sustained by the joints. Keeping your joints happy makes for better workouts and quicker recovery.
This treadmill has a 300 lb weight capacity but can provide most home exercisers with a great workout. The new Quiet Drive Incline Tech is accurate and nearly silent as it raises and lowers the deck. With an incline range of -6% to 40%, you’ll find new ways of challenging yourself.
The X32i has a large, crisp 32” Smart HD touchscreen display. The improved processor cooling enhances the graphics, immersing you in the on-screen environment. This screen is larger than most and offers bright, clear images and the ability to customize settings. The quick select console controls on either side of the display make jumping between speeds and inclines easy without endlessly pressing the up and down arrows.
Another user-friendly technology is the new Bluetooth Headphone Connectivity. Grab your favorite Bluetooth headphones and easily sync to your treadmill. You can listen to your iFit trainer and workout music without being distracted--or being a distraction to others. Connect your Bluetooth device and play your music through the two 3” digitally amplified console speakers when you can make a little more noise.
Just below the display in the center console, you’ll find comfort with the fans positioned to keep you cool-no need to occupy more floor space with a separate fan. Double water bottle holders located just beyond the edges of the display offer plenty of room for drinks or other accessories.
Also included is a Bluetooth chest strap-style heart rate monitor so you can begin training in targeted zones right out of the box. To aid in finding that target heart rate, the integrated Sled Grip and Push Bar give you unique options to get that heart pumping and work your muscles head to toe. Set the sled speed as low as you can handle and let it burn.
The Nordic X32i comes with a 1-month iFit Family Membership. This subscription service can be purchased yearly and can handle up to five user profiles. Those profiles can be maintained seamlessly across multiple iFIT outfitted machines.
If you decide not to take advantage of the streamed, trainer-controlled workouts, you can use the onboard workouts from the 50+ iFit Coach Library. Simply navigate via the touchscreen to select a unique workout for the day. To capture and store data from past workouts, you will need to maintain an iFit subscription.
Overall, we love the X32i and give it a solid thumbs up! This is our pick for the best treadmill in the $3000 - $4,000 price range. A strong industry warranty provides peace of mind while you tear it up at a severe incline.

If the teadmill costs 3.5k I should expect the subscription to be free for life to the programs, and also have 10 years warranty on everything not just the frame and motor.

[@gavinski98109]

Nice review. Clear, concise, and informative. Well done.

[@wadeplowman7030]

Is there anything out there that has cushioning as good as treadmill? Not sure I want to spend $4k on a treadmill, but when I ran on a friend's x32i last week I was amazed on the comfort of the deck. Did 5.5 miles instead of my normal 4.5.

[@TRYtoHELPyou]

The push feature is awesome

[@drguy629]

Thanks for the review!

[@Teacher2Polis2XtraRice]

Perfect treadmill for people who loves hiking.

[@deusvlad2.083]

I found another thing wrong with this treadmill, aside from hig price, and lower weight capacity, it also has no space to put a portable TV screen or a tablet or phone due to not having any ground space. This wont' be a problem if the TV screen can connect to the phone or having youtube and amazon prime built in to watch movies instead while training.

[@JS-ld2qd]

Thanks

[@deusvlad2.083]

The warranty is also 10 years on the motor I heard, What is the frame warranty? What does frame mean?

[@deusvlad2.083]

What does it mean to have a lower weight capacity? Just that it won't be able to hold more than 136kg with that particular speeds? or it will break down? Can you say use it at 130kg and it will still be okay even though your 6kg to the cap?

[@mrzameer6197]

Great machine iv owned one for 2 years now

[@joeypolsfut3736]

Hi, just checking in to see if you’ve had any issues with your x32i? I’ve been on the fence buying due to people having issues. Thanks

[@mrzameer6197]

@@joeypolsfut3736 no issues what so ever i have bought a x11i awell for the wife both machines are running perfectly fine

[@BeauDapro]

​@@mrzameer6197wow, you're the first person that hasn't had any issues, thanks

[@Omar1066]

You did a great review. If I don't subscribe to the service can I hook up my phone/tablet to the the monitor to play my own videos?

[@bgoldsm]

I was also curious of that…

[@macster1000]

I was wondering the same. Is there a chance to use any of the features without the subscription service?

[@slingerace]

I know this is 7 months after your question, but perhaps some folks will find my answer helpful. You can't connect an external device to it. The screen is an Android device. It's no different than an Android phone except that it defaults to the iFit environment when it loads. There are several good videos on KZbin showing how one can bypass the iFit environment, however. In that case, one can access the Internet, watch KZbin videos, watch Netflix or do pretty much anything else that can be done on an Android device. That said, if one is buying this thing to actually get in shape I don't know why one wouldn't get the iFit membership ($15 per month for an individual). It's a totally immersive experience on this machine. Today I followed a really pretty trainer on a three-mile run through the mountains of Costa Rica and learned much about Costa Rica in the process. The time flew by. Even though I've set it up to watch KZbin videos, Netflix, etc., I've never felt a reason to do so.

[@spreenjeff]

I have this treadmill, had it for not much time, and its stuck in downward decline position. Nordictrack doesnt have any support, they dont answer the phone, and when I called the sales line, they hung up on me.

[@leslieflores4419]

😳

[@BeauDapro]

Wow! That seems to be the norm for this machine (problems)...

[@BlackNAVYAmericanVET]

No utube videos 😢

[@vik-rai]

Please exercise caution and sound judgement before buying this product. Their customer support is ignorant and you will likely regret it in weeks if not days. You pay so much for it and there is absolutely nothing you can do once you’ve bought it and face these issues. First they shipped the treadmill in parts it took 3 or 4 months. Then I had billing issues. They billed me twice saying they were sending a second one since the first shipment had missing parts, it took forever to resolve and now the belt does not move. Good luck if you do decide to buy it. I own one and now I feel stuck with it. The belt stopped moving in 6 months and in under 400 miles that I’ve used it for. If you do magically manage to get to help desk - they will literally ask you to open console (which is ridiculous), they use self service concept through a video app. If something happens they don’t even respond to your calls/emails. I dread the music they play when you wait for help and worst thing is they try to sell you more stuff while you’re on hold for hours. 😅 holy macaroni!

[@michaellim7002]

Thank you. This is what I am worried, the bad after sales service. You should lodge an official complaints to consumer affairs dept.

[@debbismirnoff1424]

I have several nordic track equipment over the last 40 years….starting with their cross country ski machine. Then a treadmill. Never needed customer service. Machines always worked great.

[@vik-rai]

I did, the repair guy was nice and fixed it up. He told me they potentially shipped me a returned piece which had lots of missing parts. All this is fine, and it works well now. But my thing is who has time for all this. Not me.

Méfiez vous, la garantie, vous pouvez vous asseoir dessus ! J'ai dépenser 4000euro, fait pas beaucoup d'heure dessus, Suite à une opération... La machine reste bloqué, la pente ne marche plus et nordictrack ne veut pas appliquer la garantie pour de la poussière alors que je bache ma machine tout les soirs dans une pièce fermer etanche !
