Matrix TF50 Folding Treadmill with XR Console

The Matrix TF50 folding treadmill is a great choice for those looking for a very high end machine made with the best components that will last for years and years with little to no maintenance.

With three console choices, incline capability, the Ultimate Deck System, ViaFit tracking and Passport technology, it has everything you need for an effective, enjoyable workout.

From its cushioning to its custom console, the Matrix TF50 is one of the best folding treadmills for any runner, jogger or power walker. This sturdy machine weighs nearly 300 pounds and, just like health club treadmills, has a 400-pound user weight capacity. The parts are under warranty for seven years and the electronics for five, which is a good match for a high-end treadmill.

The Matrix TF50 is easily a top choice among folding treadmills in its elite price class. This unit is well-made from deck to console, and a generous warranty helps make it a no-worries purchase.

• Data Tracking: All consoles built for the TF50 can track fitness data locally, plus they have ViaFit for automated online data tracking. Two of the consoles have the MyFitnessPal app as well. ViaFit and MyFitnessPal make it easy to automatically log and graph your fitness data from treadmill sessions and around town. They’re also compatible with FitBit and similar devices.
• Virtual Active: Depending on console choice, the TF50 arrives with Virtual Active video workouts. Virtual Active workouts coordinate scenic sights and sounds with the pace of your training, letting you virtually tour the globe from your treadmill.
• Passport: A Passport-ready TF50 can use Virtual Active with your own big screen TV. Walk, jog or run in front of high-definition video that adjusts to your pace! Passport Players for this technology are sold separately from the treadmill.
• Track Length: The TF50 treadmill track size is just right for all but the largest runners. It measures 60″ long by 20″ wide. Aluminum siderails are included for safety.
• Cushioning: A 1″ deck with advanced cushioning helps prevent fatigue. Additionally the TF50 treadmill track is 2.2-mm thick and two-ply for comfort and durability.
• Custom Consoles: Matrix home treadmills are each sold with a choice of three consoles: the XR, XER and XIR. All have reading racks, wireless heart rate receivers, energy saving mode and bottle holders. The XER and XIR have touchscreen displays and popular apps: MyFitnessPal, Facebook, Twitter, Hulu, Weather and more. The XIR has a web browser.
• Incline: Rev up calorie burn and tone your muscles with help from a power incline. The Matrix TF50 treadmill track can tilt from zero to 15 percent. This feature is especially fun with scenic Virtual Active video workouts.
• High Speed: This treadmill can support up to 12.5 mph.
• Wireless Telemetry: Grip heart rate sensors are built into the treadmill’s aluminum handrails. Additionally all Matrix home treadmill consoles support wireless heart rate monitoring.
• Speakers: The XER and XIR consoles support high fidelity audio. Play your MP3s or use the treadmill speakers with built-in apps such as YouTube and Hulu.
• Motor: The 3.25 CHP motor can support sprinting and long distance running for just about any trainee. However, a marathoner should consider moving up to the Matrix T70 (a non-folding treadmill) for even more horsepower.
• Transport Wheels: Four wheels are attached to help with transport.
• Folding: The Matrix TF50 Treadmill easily folds to reveal extra floor space in between workouts. The folded dimensions are 41.1″ long x 35.8″ wide. Unfolded, the machine’s footprint is 81.3″ long x 35.8″ wide.
• Warranty: This high quality trainer has a home warranty with lifetime protection for the frame, motor and cushioning; seven years for parts; and two years for labor. Each Matrix home treadmill console is sold with a five-year warranty.
