Pro Form Treadmills - Quality at a Cheap Price
By Dean Iggo
The Pro Form treadmill brand offer a number of good quality, low cost treadmills aimed at beginners. Priced between $500 and $1500, they represent relatively good value for money but only for people who will use the equipment lightly as they are not made to withstand tough workouts.
Pro-Form treadmills have been around for ages and fall under the umbrella of Icon Health and Fitness, the largest manufacturer of fitness equipment in the world. Their claim to fame came with the introduction of SpaceSaver(TM) technology which allowed the treadmills to be folded up after use and hence saved space...it was amazing back in the day! :)
Nowadays many treadmills have adopted this fold-away feature and Pro Form treadmills ave been somewhat forgotten about.
I believe however that there is a place in the market for Pro Form treadmills and if you are just a beginner wanting a cheap treadmill from a reliable company then this brand could be the one for you.
The only problem I have with Pro-Form is that they only offer a 90-day warranty and their treadmills are inexpensive which usually makes my alarm bells ring. This makes me think that if you are a little more serious about exercise and fitness and are wanting a machine that will support your rigorous workouts then you should perhaps look elsewhere.
You are probably better off looking at treadmills with decent warranties i.e. 2 years or more, however expect these to be a little more expensive (remember you get what you pay for). For a list of the best brands and online suppliers send a blank email to mailto:report@home-gym-buyers-guide.com
Advantages
Pro Form offer a wide range of equipment with most priced between $500 and $1500. If you are new to fitness and exercise then these treadmills are a good entry level option.
Disadvantages
The main drawback of Pro-form treadmills is that most of them only have short 90 day warranties so may not withstand intense workouts. Also the cheap price suggests that they aren't that durable.
Recommendation
Pro Form are a well known brand that have been around for ages. They offer a large range of treadmills priced in the low ($500) to mid ($1,500) price range. They are a good entry level treadmill but for more serious, seasoned runners I highly recommend spending a bit more and buying a more durable treadmill with an extended warranty.
