ProForm Treadmills Reviews

ProForm is an instantly recognizable brand name in treadmills and ProForm treadmills attract many more potential buyers than any other brand. ProForm treadmills are made by Icon Health and Fitness, who is one of the biggest manufacturers of fitness equipment in the world. Some of their well-known subsidiaries include Reebok, Nordic Track and Weider.

ProForm treadmills range from very low-cost, entry-level models (below $500) to what would be considered mid-range price (around $1300). The low-cost model is naturally not built to the same standards as higher-cost models, and you should bear that in mind when reading reviews which compare a entry-level ProForm treadmill with a mid-price model from another brand.

You get what you pay for in a treadmill. So if you are a serious runner, an athlete or expect your treadmill to work overtime, then you should avoid the lowest-priced Pro Form treadmills. Like many other low-cost treadmills, the low-cost ProForm models carry a short warranty of 90 days on replacement parts.

Ordering a ProForm treadmill is very simple. You can buy one from on of the distributors near you. Sears Stores carry some models in their Sporting Goods department. Also, try searching online for some good discounts.
