Source: ellipticalreviews.com (read 2026-08-01) STALE · 2026-08-01 · corroborated by bestbuy.com (read 2026-08-01). bowflex.com redirected every fetch attempt this session to global.bowflex.com (a non-US landing page with no M9-specific content), consistent with Bowflex's 2024 Chapter 11 bankruptcy and acquisition of the brand by Johnson Health Tech; the brand's US retail presence in 2026 runs primarily through third-party retailers (Best Buy, Walmart, Johnson Fitness/JOHNSONFITNESS.com, Nebraska Furniture Mart) rather than a fully functional bowflex.com storefront reachable by this tool. Specs were therefore confirmed via EllipticalReviews.com's 2026 review (20 magnetic resistance levels, 300lb/136kg max user weight, 49.2 x 30.5 x 65.1in / 125 x 77 x 165cm, 148.8lb unit weight, 10in HD touchscreen) with Best Buy's live listing confirming the product is still actively sold under this exact name/SKU. Max Trainer M9 combines elliptical and stair-stepper motion; it has no stair riser or SPM cadence spec (resistance/intensity is magnetic-levels-based, not step-height or step-rate based), hence those fields are null. No flywheel (direct magnetic resistance on the arm/pedal linkage), hence flywheel_weight_kg is null. No verifiable release date found.
