I have now used my new C990 for about 1 month. Although it has some good features, I am VERY disappointed in several design aspects of this machine:

1) Only the belt inclines, so the handrail is barely in reach beyond 6 degrees of incline. I am a normal 5' 8" so this is ridiculous. Was this machine designed exclusively for midgets? This is a safety issue!

2) The handrail is far too short. I need to be at the very front end of the belt to reach the handrail. Did the designer have ultra-long arms? This is a safety issue!

3) The tablet reader stand is completely useless because it is positioned far too distant from my eyes. I would need binoculars to read my 8" tablet screen.

4) The instruction manual requires the power switch at the base of the machine to be turned off when not in use. This is idiotic...the power-off button should be on the control panel.

5) The built-in fan points about 6 inches above my head. It cannot be adjusted.

OVERALL, I am dissatisfied with this machine's design. I have the impression the designers never tried it themselves, or they would have caught these many basic design flaws.

Shame on NordicTrack for allowing this product to reach the market. It ruined my opinion of the company and its products

Reason of review: Bad quality.

Monetary Loss: $1000.
