Labor Day Treadmill Deals Are Here—Save Up to 30% on Our Top Picks from NordicTrack, Bowflex, and More

| 5 min read
  • End-of-summer Labor Day deals make it a great time to grab a treadmill.
  • The holiday weekend event always brings big deals, and I rounded up some of the best treadmill deals as we head into fall.

As autumn arrives, so does wet weather and the approaching cold, making your treadmill your BFF. (Unless you’re a glutton for being damp and cold, of course.) Running in the rain and cold can be miserable and slippery. But worry not, you can run comfortably in the glorious indoors with a fan directly in your face, your best serial killer doc on the television, and clothes that don’t need to be cute (but they so can be).

There are a ton of treadmills on the market, and knowing which ones are worth it and which to pass on is hard. Don’t worry, I’ve put the miles in to find all the best models out there, and right now, some of our faves are seeing big discounts.

I’ve scoured the web looking for the best deals. I’ve evaluated them for value, reliability, customer service, quality of feel underfoot, and any other spec I would traditionally assess when recommending ’mills, but paying special attention to price. Here are the best picks I’ve found.

We love this treadmill at the office. We’ve had it for years, and it consistently performs at the top of its class. Very few treadmills get to live at our HQ for any length of time, so that says something.

It has a large deck, a big screen, and is easy to operate. Personally, I love running the pre-installed programs, thanks to their variety and challenge, but even without the help of a built-in program or the dynamic iFit app, the treadmill is still really great. It has a cushioned deck with multiple running zones for push-off and landing, a smooth belt that doesn’t hiccup even after you’ve put serious miles on it, and accessories (fan and cup holders) that are well-placed and generous.

Motor2.5 CHP

If you’ve been eyeing a home treadmill, this Labor Day deal from Sunny Health is pretty boss. The quiet brushless motor and foldable design make it a natural fit for home gyms with limited space, while the 20-inch-wide running belt gives you enough room to feel secure without feeling cramped.

The 15 auto-incline levels let you simulate real terrain, and 24 preset workout programs keep routines from boring you to tears. The speed and incline adjustments are smooth, and the controls are large and intuitive.

It supports users up to 300 lbs and tops out at 10 MPH, covering everything from walkers to serious runners. It also arrives fully assembled, thank the gods.

For the price point, this is a genuinely strong mid-range option—especially with a Labor Day sale discount.

Motor3 CHP

The NordicTrack T Series 10 is a killer compact ‘mill for the price, and a Labor Day discount makes it an even better option. It packs a 3 CHP motor, a 20 x 60-inch running belt, and a 12 MPH top speed, which are specs you’d expect from machines costing significantly more. This newer model also introduces SelectFlex cushioning, letting you dial the deck from soft to firm depending on your preference.

The 10-inch HD touchscreen and iFIT compatibility bring an interactive training experience that rivals pricier competitors. I’ve found myself consistently loving the smooth, quiet ride, and I think the iFIT instructors are genuinely motivating.

It supports up to 325 lbs and folds away cleanly for smaller spaces. The main caveat: iFIT is subscription-based, so factor that into the long-term cost. Still, for serious home runners, this is a rare deal worth jumping on.

Motor3.0 CHP

I am a huge fan of Bowflex treadmills for one very specific reason—the line down the center of the belt keeps me from wandering. Yes, there’s a lot more to like about it, like the fact that you’re getting a premium machine at an affordable price, or that the speed and incline changes are smooth and easy, but I’m a wanderer. Having that red line down the center of the belt? It makes me so much more secure in my runs. Just checking in every so often keeps me where I need to be, and it does it without much thought from me.

Yes, the tablet holder could be a bit less fiddly, and the cupholder could be bigger, but this is one of my favorite treadmills, and I’ll ride or die for it any day.

Motor4.5 CHP

We’ll be upfront: we’ve put the 2450 through serious, sustained punishment over multiple years, and it keeps showing up. That’s the whole review, really. But let’s get into it.

The 4.25 CHP motor hits 14 mph without getting wobbly or loud—even on cement floors, even after years of daily miles. The 15% incline and 3% decline range means you’re getting real terrain simulation, and the generous belt gives even tall runners room to fully open their stride.

The 24-inch touchscreen tilts and swivels, and with iFIT, you can chase coaches through mountain trails or city streets. They have basically a gajillion classes, programs, and virtual runs that keep things interesting

At $2,299, it’s not for casual users, but it’s great for people planning to log serious miles. We are those people. Years in, it still earns its spot. Grab it while the holiday weekend deal is active and don’t look back.

This is Walkingpad’s entrant into the traditional treadmill space, doing what they do best—making an easy-to-store treadmill that delivers on its promises. At over 50 inches long and 20 inches wide, this is their largest treadmill. And unlike their other machines, this bad boy can get up to 11.5 miles per hour, which is way faster than I run, I can tell you that much.

And perhaps the best part? It folds up small enough to hide behind your sofa or in your closet, thanks to Walkingpad’s ingenious double fold that lets you fold the treadmill deck in half and into itself. It’s a genuinely wild thing to see, and I’m excited.
