Treadmill review: Matrix T5x

Built Like a Tank

Let’s get straight to it—the Matrix T5X is a commercial-grade treadmill designed for heavy-duty use. What does that mean for you? Reliability and performance you can count on.

Engine That Roars

At its heart, the Matrix T5X features a 5 HP club-rated AC drive system. Translation? This treadmill has the muscle to back its good looks. It’s built to last, making it a valuable addition to any fitness facility.

The Ultimate Deck

What sets this treadmill apart is its ultimate reversible, maintenance-free polymer deck, perfect for a marathon on a treadmill. This is more than just a fancy term. The deck is designed to absorb shock and provide a smooth running experience for marathon training. Also, the fact that it’s maintenance-free means you are saving both time and money in the long run.

Wider is Better

Let’s talk about comfort. The extra-wide 22″ belt on this treadmill gives you all the room you need to run, jog, or walk. It feels less like a machine and more like a luxury running surface.

Less Work, More Workout

One of the best things about the Matrix T5X? It requires less maintenance. Spend less time with a toolkit and more time breaking a sweat.
