Does what it claims May 16, 2011
Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
Set up:

It takes about 2 people (which is the minimum you should have) 2 hours to set this treadmill up. I can't say it was all that difficult, just takes a bit of time to read through the instructions.

Compactness/Maneuverability of the unit:

Once set up, you can lift the belt section upwards almost vertically in order to reduce its profile by about 67%. While it is relatively easy to move (for a man) around on a smooth surface such as the concrete in the basement I would imagine that it would be more difficult for those not used to moving around heavy weights and/or if this was placed on a carpet. I can't call it very easy to move in that situation at all.

NOTE: Please make sure that after you have reduced the profile and you then want to put the belt down on the floor again, that you DO NOT hold the belt by the belt itself, no matter how tempting, but instead hold it on either side of the unit or else it will slip off of your hands and possibly onto your foot.

Learning Curve:

I read the instruction for the functionality of this unit within 5 minutes and it only took another 2 or 3 minutes of playing around on the controls to learn how to use it. Frankly, I'm glad it doesn't have any more crazy bells and whistles because let's face it, you're there to run, not learn how to use a computer and you know that the more variability and functionality there is, the less you're likely to use each function.

PROS:

I like that you can basically choose a speed up to 10mph (way more than the average person needs) and 10* incline (very difficult, I'm not sure why anyone would need any more than this).

You set the angle of the incline and the speed by one unit intervals (i.e. 1mph/1*) before turning the machine on and you can adjust the speed by .1mph or .5*incline as you are running which is great in terms of gradually increasing it manually; no need to worry for a sudden jolt either as the increase or decrease in speed/incline is very gradual and easy on you.

You can choose a preset profile to burn a certain amount of calories; these profiles will have a sequence of 20-30 different variations in incline and/or speed as you run; changing once a minute. However, as we all know, each person will definitely not burn the calories indicated as the estimates are just that, estimates.

The great thing is the calorie counter works if you manually adjust the speed/incline and just run how you want to, so I don't see the purpose in the calorie section except for having the machine automatically vary your incline and speed for you.

There is an option for you to put in flash disks from a store-bought training program that will supply you with more exercise regiments. It's a nice option, but again, as a purist exerciser, if you're not going to run just as it is, then an exercise program won't do it for you. Save your money.

There is a speaker set built in for your music player. The sound is good, but I don't use it since the TV is right in front of this machine.

A nice safety clip that magnetically allows the unit to function, and shuts it off gradually (but quicker than changes in speed if you're running normally) if you happen to fall or step off.

CONS:

This unit has a heart monitor. Virtually useless in my opinion. If you put your hands on the monitor as you're running you will NEVER get an accurate reading, EVER. You need to stop running, put your hands on it, and wait 15 seconds and basically pray it will be close to realistic (I was getting figures of 160bpm when I hadn't done anything at all).

Also, 2/4 people in our house experienced an unpleasant tingling sensations in our hands and fingers after using this heart monitor, including myself, so I'm staying the heck away from it.

JOINTS:

A household member had an older version of the ProForm treadmill that didn't have the joint cushioning support this one does. I was always personally skeptical of the claims of reducing the impact on joints; but this person insists that his back problems prevented him from ever using his old treadmill but he uses this one every-day without any issues. So, kudos to the company for making a quality product in this respect.

Overall: I'm very pleased with the machine. It's quite, easy to use, and does what it promises (minus the heart monitor).

Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
Wow, this thing came well packaged in a HUGE, Heavy box, have the delivery people put it where you want it because there's no way you will be moving it again unless you have a couple of weightlifters with STRONG backs! So have a large place cleared when you are expecting the delivery. As to the putting together of it, my 12 year old son & husband had no problem, it took them several hours though, if it had been me putting it together it would have taken much longer. Two people makes a big difference and of course your ability in assembling things in general.

It says to have a professional put it together IF you do it yourself, as we did, the screws are very TIGHT to screw in, they do this so they will fit snug & not come out. You cannot use power tools as they might strip the screws, so be prepared for a workout!My husband is STRONG and It took him 3 hours to put it together.

Once it was assembled, I realized that where I had placed it I could not see the 36" TV screen on my dresser, (I am 5'5" tall) the control panel blocked it from my view, my 6'3" son could see the TV with no problem though!

Then the next feature came in sooooo handy....... I picked up the tread and pushed it to its new location (It has wheels!) on the other side of the room, now I could see the TV fine but discovered I did not have enough clearance between the wall & the back of the treadmill, you need about 8 feet so if you lose your balance & accidentally fall you won't be smashed into the wall where the treadmill will deposit you! (They do have a magnetic "key" on a string with a clip on the end, that you can clip onto you, so IF you fall, it will automatically shut the treadmill off!)
Now back to the repositioning of the treadmill!

We moved it again, effortlessly I might add, this time I had a new problem! The cord would not reach the outlet! The cord is only about 6 feet long and comes out at the front of the machine towards the wall. There is no room to run it under the machine and behind it or enough length to run it along the side to plug into the wall behind it & have any clearance between you and the wall! It is really designed to be plugged in FACING a wall no more than 6 feet away in front of you! So unless you are tall or have a higher wall mounted TV to view, you will be listening to music looking out a window or at a wall unless you use an extension cord or are fortunate enough to have a side wall outlet that lines up with the front of the machine EXACTLY where you want to place it!

Now for my profile info: I have mild scoliosis, I have been diagnosed with osteopenia (that means I'm pre-osteoporosis) I am 53 years old, 5'5" tall and weigh about 115 pound. I go to the gym regularly, rotate weights with cardio, & own a mid price range elliptical that was a Consumer Reports Best Buy about 6+ years ago. I have an 18 year old, weight lifting, "Navy Seal Workouts" type of son who also uses this, he is extremely fit, 6'3", and weighs about 220 pounds. I will be telling you both our perspectives on this treadmill.

My elliptical at home was bothering my knees when I did more than 4 miles on it, where I could do a 10 miles on a treadmill at the gym at a speed of 4.1 with no pain! So I really wanted a home treadmill, while researching various models this one was independently rated a Best Buy for medium price range model as my elliptical was, so I was pretty confident it would work well for my needs.

This treadmill is AWESOME!! I know there are more expensive models that are uber cool but are out of my price range so for what this has for the price it is sweet! I LOVE the ipod dock with the speakers! NO more ear buds!
There are 12 programs to select from where you can input the calories you want to burn & it will automatically adjust the speed/incline/time to what you want! It has a nice variety & you can set it for 200 to 750 calories!

The tread belt is 20" x 55" which suits me fine, my son however wishes it was a bit larger but it still does fit his gait, he just is about at the max for it we think. So IF you are tall like him or maybe even shorter but with longer legs you might want to go to a gym or fitness store and compare treadmills with similar tread belts to see if they are big enough for your gait. For us it is sufficient.

It also has the iFit Card Technology that you can get for it but are NOT included! It would have been neat if they had thrown at least 1 in with it. After we get done playing with the feature it already has we will be getting some and will update this review.

While the machine itself has a limited one year warranty on parts and labor, it also has a 2.25 Continuous Duty HP Motor that comes with a 25 year warranty! That gives us a sense of peace that we can go to town and not worry about burning it out as there is no one in our family that exceeds the weight guidelines (300 pounds max)

It is reasonably quiet, there are no noticeable "squeaks" or noises that make listening to TV or music difficult.
The LCD display is backlit, there is Dual-Grip EKG Heart Rate Monitor, it can incline from 0%-10%, it has 12 different Quick Calorie-Burn Workouts to select from along with what they call "ProTech Cushioning" that reduce impact on your joints by 15% as opposed to running on the pavement/road! It also EASILY folds up, which is wonderful if floor space is a premium in your house, it is not an issue where I have it place in my home.

This is the baseline model for this line, IF you can afford it or are Taller OR heavier I would definitely recommend looking into their higher end models! But for our wallet & needs this is the one that we recommend our friends with similar budget buy!

If there are ANY issues that arise I WILL update, I so appreciate it when other reviewers do updates!

5/23/2011~ update!
We discovered today that when you burn 1,000 calories it resets itself back to zero & restarts itself!
It's a good thing we caught this as IF we did not see it reset & looked at the cumulative amount of calories burned at the end of the run, we would have thought it was defective!!

Very Nice Treadmill June 14, 2011
Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
The unit was delivered in a timely manner in a large box that was placed inside where we wanted by the delivery men. I was at work when it arrived and my wife and mother in-law didn't want to wait for me so they unpacked and assembled the unit without incident in under 2 hours. The only thing they said was a bit tricky but nothing they couldn't work through with a little patience was getting the screws in the hand rails. So really a couple of women who aren't body builders unpacked and put it together on their own using only the instructions and no outside help, so assembly isn't that difficult.

Next I'll get into the things that are weird / bug me about the unit. These things were all noticed right away. First off plastered all over the instructions are notes about how you must use a single outlet surge suppressor but they fail to include one in the package. You would think that for something that is apparently so critical to the units operation that they would have included one, but they don't, you have to go buy one. Another thing I find odd is that to turn power on and off to the unit you have to use the circuit breaker down by where the power cord enters the unit near the floor. You'd think they could have put an on/off switch up on the control panel too. The built-in speakers could be louder and sound better but are better than nothing I guess. (You get a standard headphone jack connector for the audio connection not a iPod dock. Not a negative point IMO.) Finally the heart rate monitor, it is totally inaccurate based on our experiences with it and it is best ignored. The book says it is not a medical device and only a general exercise aid.

Now on to the devices core functionality running and walking. I have nothing but good things to say here. It seems to have a good amount of cushioning and a wide range of incline and speed adjustments to get you the workout that you want. You have volume type up and down buttons to adjust the speed in .1MPH and .5MPH increments (depending on if you press or hold the button) and incline in .5% increments. You also have direct select number buttons to quickly jump around the speed and incline settings. You can select a calorie burn preset that works you through a pre-programmed workout based on the general number of calories you'd like to burn. The unit will vary the speed and incline during the program at preset intervals until complete. During the program if you need to adjust what is happening you can manually interrupt things for that segment of the program. The unit has a large easy to read back-lit LCD display showing you relevant information in regards to the settings and workout progress. There are also two trays on the console to set things and a magnetic safety key to kill the unit if you fall off.

I'm not going to touch on the iFit cards because they didn't include one to review.

My wife has been using the unit 5 days a week for about a month and a half in her exercise routine that she started when we got the unit and has so far lost 15 pounds and 2 inches from her waist. This treadmill has helped her achieve these results and not beat herself up doing it. All in all I would say that this is an excellent unit to purchase to help you achieve your exercise goals. It seems like an overall well built unit that will hopefully last for years.
