The two gentlemen arrived as scheduled and did an excellent job in setting up the treadmill and explaining its operation.

A good sturdy treadmill. Relatively easy to assemble and use. My prior ProForm treadmill lasted 20 years, so I'm hoping this one does as well.

My son has been using this treadmill for a couple of weeks now. It is very easy to fold up and move away, and bring it back out to use.

I have had this for almost a year now and it’s been great. My belt slid off track and was damaged and they sent me out a new belt.

Quiet and the right size for my apartment! Assembly was not difficult. You don’t have to use iFit though. Don’t get sucked in!

This is arguably the worst purchase I've made in my adult life. I have had this machine for 45 days and in that time it is has been functional for maybe 10. ONE WEEK after I got it the motor started making a weird noise, like an engine revving and every time you stepped on it the belt would slow down. Reached out to ProForm support and they decided the motor was bad, after 5 days... So it was decided that they needed to send me a new motor. In the first week of Dec... with shipping delays, Hello Christmas. I get my new motor, I have a professional install it on Dec. 29. Use it 5 more times and now you turn on the machine and there is a clicking noise like a horse is trotting through your whole house. ProForm is now sending me a SECOND motor along with a brand new drive roller, which should be here by the end of the month... The only exercise I have gotten from this machine is taking the cover on and off and folding myself into awkward positions to try and figure out what the ______ is wrong. Good News: Since I've memorized the manual, I now believe I could build my own treadmill.

I absolutely love my ProForm treadmill! I purchased this during the holidays on sale and it was delivered 2 weeks later. I have been using the iFit app for my workouts and can’t get enough of the variety of work outs. Honesty, I love this better than the Peloton.

I've been using this ProForm 505 CST for about a month and I am very happy. The only thing I believe could be improved is the level of noise. Even when I use the speakers at max volume the noise is very significant.

Bought on sale, good quality for the price. Great for the casual runner. Easy to change speeds and large display. Don't expect much air from the fan though!

Installation was pretty easy but time consuming. The worst part about the product is the forced activation through iFit with a sneaky business practice of trying to get you to forget about the monthly subscription.

Hard to assemble. Bolt holes out of tolerance. Had to drill my own holes.
Instructions misleading on how to get to run without using “Ifit”.
