Our Take
The NordicTrack EXP 7i is a mid-range folding treadmill aimed at home users wanting structured, app-driven training without stepping into commercial-gym territory. It sits comfortably between entry-level budget machines and premium smart treadmills, offering a decent motor, a built-in touchscreen, and iFit integration for those who want guided workouts rather than just a moving belt.
Key Features
2.6 CHP motor, suited to walking, jogging, and moderate running sessions
7-inch HD touchscreen with iFit compatibility (subscription sold separately)
Speed range of 0–12 mph with 0–12% incline adjustment
SpaceSaver folding design with EasyLift Assist for compact storage
20-inch x 55-inch running surface — adequate for most users up to around 6 ft
Cushioned deck with NordicTrack's FlexSelect cushioning, switchable between cushioned and firmer feel
Our Verdict
A reasonable buy for casual-to-moderate runners who want structured, coach-led sessions at home and have the space constraints that make folding essential. If you run seriously or hard daily, a more powerful machine would serve you better. Factor the iFit subscription cost into your budget before committing.
