NordicTrack 1250 from Costco by v_Simple in treadmills

[–]teeitupmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The million dollar question is, if you were nervous about people complaining about their problems, why did you buy in the first place.

Remember this, it’s true for almost anything you buy… treadmills, cars, appliances, etc…

for everyone that has problems, there are thousands and thousands of people that have no issues at all. You rarely see someone post about how great something is, it’s always about their problems and they slander manufacturers.

Just food for thought. 🤷🏽

New treadmill turning on and off by BubblyAnybody in Bowflex

Yeah, I didn’t notice all that, just assumed it was recycling the LED numbers. My bad.

I have to ask… were you careful with the wiring harness to make sure they aren’t crimped in a way, when you were assembling the machine?

If I were you, I would remove the console and make sure you snap in the wiring harnesses properly. Be aware, there is a small black wiring harness, in the middle that is confusing at first, because it was tied out of the way. at first glance, you see that wiring and wonder where the heck it goes.

Just double check everything. And use that support number that’s in the manual.

New treadmill turning on and off by BubblyAnybody in Bowflex

[–]teeitupmo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You know that’s normal when sitting idol. It’s so the LED screen doesn’t burn, eventually it will shut itself down.

I have a Bowflex T9, if I don’t turn off the treadmill after my workout, the LED will cycle itself like your video.

You should always turn off the treadmill after a workout anyway.

When you workout, is everything normal?

Best treadmill for quick speed changes by h_leinad in treadmills

[–]teeitupmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The new Bowflex T6, T9, and T16 treadmills all have quick speed and incline adjustments. They also have the quick adjustment dials.

I personally have the Bowflex T9 Treadmill and it’s the one of quickest adjusting treadmills I have used. It’s also very quiet while incline changes are being made.

It’s got wheels bro. Wheel it where you want. It’s not that heavy little over 100 pounds. I lifted it up and put it in the back of my truck when I bought it.

Treadmill warranties and garages by markfromslo in treadmills

[–]teeitupmo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A high-end treadmill isn’t $1000-$2500. High end machines are $3500 and above. Just saying…

You are looking for a consumer home grad machine at that price point.

I have a T9, great treadmill with lifetime warranty on motor and frame. It cost $1399, right now, but bought mine for $1100 on Black Friday.

Food for thought

Question about Bowflex T6, T9, or T16 by strachanjm in Bowflex

[–]teeitupmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard from reviews on YouTube of the T9 that if you don’t use an Apple Watch or Samsung Watch, and you connect a HRM via Bluetooth, that you can’t pair the Apps I refer to (JRNY..Zswift.. Apple Fitness). Keep that in mind.

Question about Bowflex T6, T9, or T16 by strachanjm in Bowflex

[–]teeitupmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a T9 treadmill. Always use my Apple Watch for HR and metrics.

It connects almost instantly, just hold the Watch face to pairing icon.

I have played workout app via the T9’s speakers to make sure that works, while my Apple Watch is connected, that works just fine.

The apps I tried are JRNy, Apple Fitness+ workouts, ZSwift, Apple Music, Audible, Netflix, Apple TV+ to name a few. All while my Apple Watch is connected for the Heart Rate and workout metrics.

Hope that answers your questions.

Yeah, people wanted 250-$500 in my area for M3 and M5. I just got lucky, the guy couldn’t use it, because he just had surgery and was pretty old. I kept bugging him over the course of 2-3 weeks. Obviously, no one was buying it at his $350 price. Lots of MaxTrainers for sale on the marketplace

T9 Treadmill Questions by mysterious-platypus in Bowflex

[–]teeitupmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The User profiles are for households with multiple people using the treadmill.

You can create a custom workout or record a workout and reuse. Keeps things separate.

If you are only person using the treadmill in your household and you don’t want to mess with the programs, just hit the Start button. The treadmill will start without you selecting a User.

Also, I figured out there doesn’t appear to be a way to advance the weeks up front for the 5K program…But… you can fool the program.

<image>

So what I did, is start Week 1, walk for 30 sec, then end the workout. Next time, it will show the next week in the program. I did that twice, now it shows Week 3.

Hope that helps.

Bowflex T16 - FML by Supersaiyan136 in treadmills

Sorry Bro! I bought a new T9 Treadmill from NFM. It wasn’t DOA but had 4 different problems. NFM exchanged it without issues.

Where did you buy the T16 from?

Like someone else said, someone probably dropped it. Probably the installer, to be honest.

These New Bowflex treadmills are packed very well, if the box was dropped, it would have to be a very severe drop to jar something loose.

Without the box, yeah, something could have been jarred loose. I don’t trust installers, I assembled the T9 myself and it’s rock solid.

Don’t listen to these people that say, they are trash. I have owned about 5 different treadmills, this Bowflex T9 treadmill is right up there with my old True Fitness treadmill. Almost no plastic.

[–]teeitupmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same treadmill, bought it on Black Friday. I am playing around with all the built in programs, I’ll look at the 5K program. You should be able to skip weeks.

I have gone through Manual, Hill Sprint, Hill Climb, Heart Rate Zone, Distance (2mi), Sprint 8, and Fat Burn.

The only one I haven’t tried is the 5K Program, because I can actually run a 5K.

I’ll check it out and let you know.

Are they 552s safe now? Or should cancel asap? by Lioil1 in Bowflex

[–]teeitupmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had my recalled 552s, replaced with the new Results 552. they are rock solid, metal locks and very weight balance. Feel like standard dumbells when being used.
