    Pretty quiet, yet sturdy. Got it on sale and have had it for 2 months. I've liked the ProForm series and they've been pretty solid.

    I bought this in September of 21 and it lasted just a year! A repairman has been out twice since to replace the motor and it still isn’t working. They refuse to send a new one. Waste of money! Not to mention when it was working, it would overheat and shut down. I am just an average user and not training for marathons!

    Very easy to assemble…took about 2 hours. I run and walk on an incline and found the only “issue” is if you go anywhere between 1-2 mph it’s very laggy. I’ve only rode it to test the belt and how it runs at different speeds. It says Bluetooth capable but haven’t figured that out. The fan really serves no purpose but not a big deal to me. Overall satisfied so far!!

    Love this treadmill! Easy to install, would recommend having someone to help especially towards the end! You can bypass the IFit by pressing the button for about 30 seconds. Does make a loud noise at first, but then goes away, 10/10 recommend.

    Used it twice, the belt keeps shifting to one side and the motor is making a very weird winding noise. Overall it seems cheap. I wanted to like this but it’s too flimsy for almost 1000 bucks. Feels like a thick piece of plastic, returning it will probably be annoying bc I need a truck. Also it came with all this packaging telling me it’s locked till I activate the program trial they don’t tell you to bypass by holding the ifit button. Feel ripped off

    Only unit available! Numerous delays on delivery due to weather. Advised by EVERYONE to have it assembled as I got a 5 year repair warranty. Others have this unit and it works for them and for MY needs this work perfect as well as it's more important for me to walk 2 miles daily no matter the weather.

    Poor Instructions = Not Worth It

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The poor activation instructions made me regret this entire purchase and lose trust in the brand. The activation code provided was invalid and the support line was experiencing technical difficulties every time I called. I had to dig through support topics online to find instructions for Bluetooth activation. Those instructions should have been easily accessible and highlighted in the assembly process rather than the invalid activation code (which btw you cannot log out and log back in to try the code again because then that screen is no longer accessible, so good luck). Also, the crew that delivered the treadmill would not take it down two half flights of stairs to my basement despite claiming they would take it up to three flights. This thing is way too heavy to just be left like that so I'll find another store and service to help me out next time. Glad I didn’t pay for assembly because that would have been an absolute waste.

      Delivery and assembly services have surely been suffering due to covid concerns. We are sorry the service you experienced from your delivery company did not give you all the help expected.

      We are sorry the activation instructions did not seem as clear as you prefer. We will pass that along to the appropriate team to make improvements.

      For expedited service, please reach out to us at ce@ProForm.com with your personalized case number, 1-R101630. We want to ensure that your equipment gets working properly so you can enjoy the full experience it can offer you.

    I purchased the installation service because I didn’t want to lug the treadmill around, and am glad I did. The treadmill is just what I wanted; incline and speed settings, in a simple and relatively inexpensive product. I use it every day. As other users state, although the treadmill came with multiple stickers saying you must activating membership, it can be overridden easily as noted in multiple reviews. So far I love this treadmill.

    Prompt delivery and wasn't difficult too assemble. Some of the pilot holes were a bit tight, that's not a deal breaker issue. Took about 2 hours with 1 person. Had help with the last step, but did not take long. Super quiet and you don't have to activate the iFit to get started. You just have to hold the iFit icon for less than 30 seconds and you can start working out. Only con for me is that the max incline is 10. I wish it was a little more, but for the price I'm not mad about it.

    I love this treadmill. It was very easy to assemble. I actually watched a YouTube video that was very helpful at ease. I can’t believe I spent $600 on an equipment that I normally see at the gym that’s usually way more then what it’s original value.

    this treadmill is exactly what I needed to get my daily walk in. It is a simple machine to operate. I do not use ifit but there are sufficient builtin programs to suit my needs. Would recommend this treadmill to anyone that needs to exercise.

    Simple and Sturdy

    This treadmill is simple, comfortable, and sturdy and perfect for what I need - a place to walk when it’s too cold, icy, or rainy outside. Disabling iFit was the only issue on setup but once I learned you can turn it off by holding the button for 15 seconds, it was all good. I did subscribe for the first month (I think you have to, to set it up), but cancelled immediately after easily online and now just use the treadmill features without iFit.

    Treadmill arrived on time. A bit bigger and heavier than was expecting, but I really love this treadmill. The reason for 4 stars is the building process was tedious and a couple of bolts did not fit. But after putting it together and using it, I have no regrets. And I am using it it with out the membership. Like other reviewers have said just press the ifit button for like 20 seconds and you are good to go.
