When it comes to cardio equipment, elliptical trainers are a great option for low-impact workouts that provide a full-body experience.

The NordicTrack Space Saver SE9i is a top-of-the-line rear drive elliptical trainer that delivers on both convenience and functionality.

Its foldable design allows for easy storage when not in use, and it can be assembled quickly and easily.

The machine features a fully integrated 7-inch Smart HD touchscreen display with web browser, incline, heart rate monitor, and iFit technology, which includes thousands of workouts.

Pros:

  • Foldable design with a small storage footprint
  • Large touchscreen display with thousands of iFit workouts
  • Automatic adjustments to both resistance and incline during iFit classes
  • Adjustable oversized pedals and Free wireless chest strap for heart rate monitoring
  • AutoBreeze workout fan and Soft Touch Upper Body Grips
  • Water bottle holder and Transport wheels for easy mobility

Cons:

  • Only an 18-inch stride, which may not be comfortable for taller individuals
  • The iFit Coach technology is subscription-based, so it requires an additional fee
  • May not be ideal for those with limited space as it's still relatively large
  • Fairly expensive, especially with add-ons
  • Touchscreen monitor cannot be tilted for height adjustment

What We Like About It:

The SE9i offers a range of benefits, including a small storage footprint, 24 resistance levels, a 10-degree power incline, adjustable oversized pedals, a free wireless chest strap for heart rate monitoring, an AutoBreeze workout fan, Soft Touch Upper Body Grips, a water bottle holder, and transport wheels for easy mobility.

The foldable design is a standout feature, allowing users to save space in their home gym, and the Smart HD touchscreen display provides a clear and vibrant display of workout stats in real-time.

While the SE9i offers plenty of benefits, it’s important to consider its drawbacks as well. One potential drawback is the 18-inch stride length, which may not be comfortable for taller individuals. Additionally, the iFit Coach technology is subscription-based, so it requires an additional fee.

  • Parts 2 Years
  • Labor 1 Years

Conclusions:

Overall, we recommend the NordicTrack Space Saver SE9i for anyone looking for a compact and convenient elliptical trainer with plenty of features and capabilities.

The machine provides an excellent full-body workout experience, and its foldable design and small storage footprint make it ideal for home use.

The 7-inch Smart HD touchscreen display and iFit Coach technology offer a wide variety of workout options, while the adjustable oversized pedals, free wireless chest strap for heart rate monitoring, and AutoBreeze workout fan make for a comfortable and enjoyable workout experience.

However, with a fairly high price tag, it may not be the most cost-effective option for those who don’t intend to use it frequently.
