The Ironman treadmills are manufactured by Keys Fitness Products, and the company has two series of treadmills for sale: the new T-series and the classical M-series. They also offer an intermediate model called the Ironman Triad which combines characteristics from both models. These products can be placed at the middle class of the manufacturing sector with prices ranging from bellow $1,000 to over $2,000.
They have good models that are suitable for a normal program of exercises like the M2, M3, M4 and the T150, T220, T320. At the same time, they also have larger and heavier machines that have an impressive stability and an extended number of controls and features.
Amogst all Ironman treadmills, the Triad model is one of the most appreciated, it comes with a modern design like the T-series but it has the same accessories as the M5 which was a great machine.
It’s weight is under 400 lbs and it comes with a decent engine that generates 3hp. A maximum speed of 10 mph can be reached with this treadmill. It is true that the Triad model took much of its monitoring function from the M-class models but it didn’t import all the features, so while the M models have a 12% inclination angle the Triad comes with a smaller angle of just 10%. The running band of a Triad is larger that at the M6, so you might see this as an advantages too.
Impressive on Ironman treadmills- they come with a good warranty: 10 years for the motor, lifetime for the frame, two years on the parts and 12 months on labor. Ironman treadmills offer a good quality-cost relationship for their price when compared with the competition.
If we compare the 320T model with the Smooth 5.25 that has a similar price you will realize that 320T comes with a bigger walking surface and more additional functions. However the Smooth model brings a better warranty, better ratings, a larger inclination angle, so it is really up to you to decide what suits you best.
What’s notable about the Ironman treadmills is that in the past they might have had some problems with the electronic system. Despite some controversies, the models are well appreciated by users so that most Amazon buyers give them 4 stars out of 5 which is quite something. If you should decide to buy an Ironman treadmill don’t run to the first sports shop because you probably won’t necessarily get the best sale. We advice you to take a look at the online promotions because there are increased chances to buy it much cheaper.
