Further down the page, you’ll find some explanations regarding the key similarities and differences between the NordicTrack Commercial 2950 and the ProForm Pro 9000.
But before checking out explanations regarding their specs and features here’s a table that summarizes the main technical summary sheet for these 2 treadmills:
Specs Comparison
The two treadmills measure a running deck of 20’W x 60’L inches. They provide users with some wiggle room for various lateral movements. The belt area is also large enough for tall users to stretch their legs comfortably and run long strides.
In terms of capacity, they support a max user weight of 300 lbs. In comparison to other models in the same class, this, however, can be a drawback.
Both hit the top speed of 12 MPH – a remarkable rate for home running equipment. So if you’re trying to boost your stamina, they’re the ideal trainers for you.
NordicTrack has incorporated one of the strongest motors in the industry and in its treadmill line, the 4.25 CHP. This allows the machine to withstand intense courses and long sessions without overheating. Despite having the slightly weaker motor, the 4.0-CHP, the Pro 9000 can still be used for heavy training sessions, allowing users to run at top speeds.
Are these machines noisy? The answer is “no”. The two machines produce very few disturbing sounds, despite their huge motors. Users can enjoy a smooth and quiet run thanks in part to their sturdy design.
In addition, both machines offer 15% in inclination and -3% in declination, allowing runners to boost their endurance and increase cardio exertion. By combining both downhill and uphill training, you’ll experience great leg exercises.
Both of them are equipped with 40 pre-installed workouts, including classic and advanced programs. This means people of all fitness levels, from beginners to pro runners, can find themselves a suitable routine to follow.
With such outstanding features, the NordicTrack Commercial 2950, of course, is expected to be on the costly side. Priced at $2999, it’s $1000 more than the Proform Pro 9000. For those who consider budget as the top priority, this may be a setback.
Features Comparison
When it comes to convenience, ProForm Pro-9000 will be the one to choose. It comes with water bottle cubbies, cups, and device holders. Users can watch their favorite shows or scroll through their news feed while walking. This is a drawback for the Nordictrack Commercial 2950.
These two models provide users with Bluetooth speakers, allowing you to play music from your phones via the treadmill’s soundbar. Enjoying good music while working out is a nice way to start your new day, isn’t it?
Unfortunately, they both lack USB ports, and this is a disadvantage, as built-in charging stations typically provide much greater comforts for users.
While the Commercial 2950 comes with a 22-inch HD touchscreen, its competitor is integrated with a 10-inch touchscreen. So obviously, a 22-inch HD touchscreen would allow much easier access to your stats, time, speed, heart rate, and workouts. In addition, their display delivers high-definition quality and responsiveness, letting you scroll with ease.
