Nautilus Treadmills
Nautilus treadmills are sold at the upper end of the market, but for very good reasons. They are designed to withstand even the toughest, longest workouts on a routine basis without wearing out or tearing up. They also deliver features better suited to serious runners and athletes than most other treadmills can offer.
For instance, consumers often remark in Nautilus treadmill reviews that they are impressed with the size of these machines. The belts are longer and wider than most others, giving ample room for full extension of the legs no matter what your natural gait may be. The belts are also designed to absorb shock and support your feet so you remain in control and stable.
One thing that should be noted about all of the models here is that they do not fold up like some others. They are larger sized treadmills intended for serious use and are not going to suit the needs of someone looking to conserve space or who would need to move the machine around regularly.
The Nautilus Sport Series T5.18 LE-X Treadmill is capable of going up to 12 mph with a maximum incline of 15%. The oversized belt measures 20” x 60” which gives ample room for full stride walking and running. It is compatible with software that will track your progress and aid in training. These software options can be purchased separately.
It comes equipped with 17 preprogrammed workouts, including a few heart rate controlled programs. It will hold users up to 375 pounds, which is a lot higher than treadmills in lower price ranges will support safely. It is also designed with quite a few convenience features, including a stability bar, two bottle holders, key tray, and a book rack.
This model comes with a lifetime warranty on the frame and 2 years on parts and labor
The Nautilus T914 Commercial Treadmill has a slightly larger belt, measuring 22” x 60”. It has the same speed and incline capabilities but only comes with 9 preprogrammed workouts. It is a very sturdy machine that will hold users up to 400 pounds.
This model comes with a 15 year warranty on the frame and motor, with 3 years on parts and 1 year on labor.
For an even larger belt, the Nautilus T916 Commercial Series Treadmill offers a 22” x 63”. It has the same warranty and features as the T914 but comes equipped with 14 preprogrammed workouts.
There are many other Nautilus treadmills that may suit the needs of different users, but these three are top notch models for those with weight loss, health, or fitness goals that they are serious about meeting. The only setback is finding the room in your home for the extra space on the deck.
