Lowest Price

Extra Savings

Good points

• • comes equipped with all the necessary features for an effective workout
  • cushioning is superior to many higher priced models and is especially beneficial for runners

Bad points

• • not the best quality judging from the low weight capacity and slightly inadequate motor

Comments

• On the surface, there isn't really anything that sets the Nordictrack Apex 4500 apart from the other treadmills out there. You would be right for the most part. The Apex 4500's main selling point is the superior cushioning that are especially gentle on your joints. Besides this however, even at 50% off MSRP, there are usually better deals from Nordictrack so you can probably pass on this one.
