Precor 956i Treadmill and Precor 954i Treadmill VS. Matrix T5x Treadmill

See below why Matrix out performs Precor Treadmills

UltimateTM Hard Wax Deck System	Our proprietary UltimateTM Hard Wax Deck System has a melting point that is more than 3 times higher than a conventional wax deck. Because the melting point is so much higher, our wax stays where it is needed and does not migrate away from the foot plant area.
22" Wide Belt	The wider the belt, the more secure the feeling of the user. A 22" belt provides a sense of spaciousness and security that all your clients can appreciate. It’s a full 2" wider than Star Trac’s 20" belt.
5.0 AC Drive System	Precor is the only major treadmill manufacturer who has not switched to AC drives for its top of the line models. Our 7 year AC motor warranty attests to our confidence vs their 3.2 HP DC motor with a 3 year motor warranty.
