- A one-touch button lets you easily adjust incline from 0% up to 12%. This feature can help dramatically increase calorie burn and tone targeted muscle groups.
- I'm a bigger guy and the shock absorbing deck is excellent!! Assembling it was cake. My wife and I knocked it out in no time.
- The treadmill itself works great. The speed and incline controls are easy to use and the motor feels really powerful.
- The controls are also situated in a perfect place to easily adjust speed or incline as necessary.
- Treadmill makes noise during incline after week workouts.
- A folding treadmill which can easily be folded and stored after use, which makes it highly suitable for home use.
- It has an impressive speed range, incline, and decline capability.
- This treadmill has a spacious and thick belt that offers comfort to all users.
- Climbs up to full speed very quickly, and you can punch in your ideal speed quickly too.
- No pace option. Speed measurements are only displayed in MPH - not very useful.
- The monitor screen is cracked, the long, skinny, shock used to stand the treadmill in an upright position for storage fails to lock in place.
- This treadmill provides a nice amount of grip and has adjustable cushioning.
- FlexSelect cushioning is an on/off feature. Turn the cushioning on to get excellent joint protection. Turn it off to simulate outdoor conditions.
- Really sturdy treadmill. I can run and it doesn’t shake or make a lot of noice.
- I can't use my tablet computer with my workout because the tablet computer holder isn’t at eye level.
- Motor is already having issues after one year of normal use.
- It has a powerful 3.5 CHP motor which works quietly without creating much noise.
- ProShox Cushioning plays the role of lowering the effect of doing high-impact workouts.
- Pretty good cup holder, towel system. Not ideal, but plenty of storage and manageable.
- The belt has excellent cushioning which really eases the impact on the body.
- I had to replace the motor and the motor controller after I had the treadmill for only 8 months.
- The NordicTrack C 990 has a diverse array of 32 workout applications. You can work on speed, endurance, and weight loss goals with programs that are customized to your fitness level.
- The C 990 includes an InterMix Acoustics sound system with 3″ speakers. A smartphone-compatible music port lets you stream MP3s directly through the treadmill’s console.
- This doesn't even have onboard basic training like hill training, interval training etc. There is only one manual mode where you can decide everything like pace, incline.
- The treadmill is unusable if the computer malfunctions.
- Fan is noisy. Would be nicer if you could aim the fan or turn off it.
- Heart rate monitoring option through grip sensors or wireless chest strap work great.
- It is equipped with a cooling fan which has multiple speed settings to keep you cool and fresh during your workout.
- Fans are pretty good for a treadmill. I've certainly seen less effective fans in gym treadmills.
- No option to set weight for better accuracy on calorie burn.
- After 1hr, it stops showing seconds. This adds another difficulty in trying to find out just exactly what pace you are going.
