Compact, Smooth, and Surprisingly Comfortable
The Step Climber XL has totally transformed my mornings! The machine is quiet, smooth, and very compact. I love the oversized cushioned pedals—they make my workouts comfortable even when I go hard. The USB-C port is a small but helpful feature. Plus, syncing with my Bluetooth headphones makes the iFIT workouts even more immersive. I was given this product for a reduced price in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.

Quick and Efficient for My Hectic Schedule
With two kids under five, I don't have hours to spend working out. I use my step climber for 20 minutes during nap time, and I can feel the difference already. It’s quiet enough not to wake the kids, and it tucks into a corner of the living room. My only complaint is that the screen isn’t very bright, but that’s minor. Great for multitasking moms or dads!

Perfect for Short Intense Workouts After Busy Day
After 12-hour shifts, I don't have the energy or time for long workouts. The Step Climber XL gives me a fast, effective cardio session in under 30 minutes. It is easy to jump on and go. I appreciate that it doesn't require much warmup to start feeling the burn. The build feels premium, and the machine is very stable. Perfect screen size. Easy to set up. This is an incentivized review.

Excellent product with entertainment
I’ve never enjoyed home workouts until I got this stair climber. I can watch my favorite shows and get a good workout in. Ifit gives you a selection of workouts or the manual mode so you can select the resistance and time. I’m impressed with the look and overall quality. My workouts go by fast because of the entertainment options and that’s such a plus! This is an incentivized review

Huge Screen!
This is an incentivized review of the NordicTrack Step Climber XL. I am more than happy to share my opinion of this equipment and its use over the past 45 days.
I am over 40 years old and a 20 year military veteran so I needed something for my home workouts that is low impact. 20 years in the military has really taken its toll on my knees so low impact was a requirement. This Step Climber is fantastic for it. It’s a stair climber but moves up and down in an elliptical motion versus just a straight stair climber. The padded foot pads and the motion really keep any impact to a minimum allowing for pain free workouts. The giant XL screen has options for multiple accounts so my entire family can use and track there personal progress. The workouts can be as intense has you want with guided workouts through iFIT or you can just create your own pace and enjoy watching a show on one of the built in apps like Prime Video or Netflix. My wife loves to throw on a Netflix show and get a nice workout in while catching up on her favorite series. Having the larger screen is great and amazing picture quality. Really eliminates the need to have a TV in the room. The machine fits perfectly in our bedroom and right against the far wall. The quality of NordicTrack equipment still keeps its reputation in this Step Climber. Its very quite, solid, and allows a great workout without waking up everyone in the house.

Quality machine and workout
This stair climber has been a great addition to my workouts. While I love running, it can be really hard on my joints. I have been able to use this machine with minimal pain. The ability to use iFit on this is an added bonus. I often get bored doing indoor workouts, so having different options of trainers, workouts, and even catching up on my favorite shows through iFit keeps me from getting bored. I forgot how convenient it is the have a workout machine in your home. I am easily able to track and compare workouts. It even has the ability to set up multiple profiles so I The stair climber is quiet, making it easy to use in the early mornings when everyone is still sleeping in the house. We also have limited space inside and it surprisingly does not take up much room in one of our spare rooms.
We scheduled the delivery fairly easily and made the mistake of putting it together in our garage. If I had to go back, I would have definitely brought it upstairs before putting it together as it is pretty heavy. It was a little difficult to put together alone, but not impossible. Would recommend two people just to make it easier. Instructions were clear the machine is very sturdy. I have used machines in the past that do not feel stable, but this one is solid. This is an incentivized review, but it is my honest and unbiased opinion.

Time saver with kids
I’ve had this machine for a few weeks and am very happy with it. This machine is very quiet and smooth, I don’t have a ton of space but it fits well and doesn’t require a large space. I try to workout as much as I can but with little kids at home and a full time job I usually find an excuse not to! I like that I can get the kids set up on the tv nearby and I can catch up on my tv series on the screen ofthe machine at the same time. Exercise definitely makes me feel better mentally and physically and I’m happy that this machine has allowed me to get those benefits and still be able to have my kids nearby at home. This stepper was offered at a reduced price for my honest opinion and I’m very impressed with it. I 100% recommend.

Love my new machine
This has been a great addition to our home gym. I used to incline walk on the treadmill, but I wanted something that felt smoother. This feels more like an elliptical to me, but with the added resistance for my legs and glutes. Trying to work my way up with the resistance, so using the machine in about 20-30 min sessions which has been a great workout! This is my honest, but incentivized review.

Better than a treadmill!
I got this machine about a month ago and have tried to use it when I can’t make it to the gym. It’s cardio, but with the resistance, so I feel like it is also helping with my strength training as well. I definitely can’t use it on the highest resistance yet, so it’s something to work up to. Very much enjoying this machine as an addition to my routine. This is an incentivized review.

Highly Recommend!!!
Absolutely love my NordicTrack Step Climber XL! It’s the perfect fit for my busy schedule and delivers an awesome workout in less than an hour, which is usually the amount of time I have. The variety of Ifit workouts keeps it fun and changing, and I appreciate that the machine does all the adjusting for me. I love to run but my knees aren't the best so this machine has helped to get a great workout without the knee pain. Setup was simple and fast, thanks to my husband. This is an incentivized but honest and unbiased review.
