We have had this treadmill for about 2 months. My husband and I are training for our 4th half marathon and live in the state of Wisconsin where the winter months mean snow. I'm up to running 10 miles at a time and this treadmill has treated us great. No complaints what so ever. It's easy to store, wasn't very difficult to assemble at all. Would definitely recommend!

I just spent 1.5 hours to assembly this treadmill. Not too difficult to get it done. Played it about 10 minutes, so far so good... no complain yet. I probably will get the refund back of the 2 yrs extended warranty.

THIS WAS A GREAT PURCHASE FOR ME AND WELL WORTH THE 399.00 IT'S QUIET, STURDY, THE IPOD SPEAKER SYSTEM SOUNDS GREAT! VERY EASY SETUP I'M A WOMAN AND I PUT THE MACHINE TOGETHER IN 45 MINUTES BY MYSELF! VERY GOOD PRODUCT FOR THOSE ON A BUDGET LIKE MYSELF! THE ONLY THING LACKING WITH THIS TREADMILL IS THAT THE LCD DISPLAY IS NOT LIGHTED...

from opening the box to the time i was playing on the treasdmill took just under an hour. thats with the help of my three year old son. for someone somewhat mechanically inclined setup was a breeze. this machine is whisper quite can only hear my feet when they hit. super sturdy when placed on a level surface. fold up is kind of akward because of the angle it sits at so it definatley takes up more room than my old one. it was sales priced and i had an additional coupon so i think i got a really good treadmill for the price.

This is my second Proform Treadmill,the first one I gave to my step-dad after he had a heart attack because I joined a gym, and he loves it. I decided to by a new one two years later because I cannot always get to the gym and this is perfect!!

I will start with this- you get what you pay for. For this fairly low price, the treadmill does it's job. However, what I found incredibly misleading is that both in the store and from the looks of the picture, it appears that the console lights up in blue and states that there is an "LCD Display". I set the treadmill up in my basement and once completed and turned on, the console does not light up in blue but instead resembles the screen of a calculator with black digits and does not light up at all. As you can understand, this makes seeing the display in a basement setting impossible. I have to use a flashlight to see the display. So, either set it up in a well lit room or buy a more expensive model. I did call customer service and they were willing to send me out a new console just to make sure it was not an electrical error, but I waited 45 minutes on hold and was asked to remove the motor cover to double check wiring. Customer service was also unsure of whether or not the console was supposed to light up which was not very reassuring. Spend a bit more money if you are going to use a treadmill to train. Spend the money that you would pay for an extended warranty to upgrade to a better model.

I bought this treadmill based on the reviews that I read on this site. There were 6 reviews and all of them were very glowing of this machine minus the display screen (or lack thereof). Let me start on the assembly for this machine. This machine definently needs two people to assemble. That was part of the problem, I only had myself and it took my 3 hours to assemble. Once the machine was fully assembled, I was ready to enjoy all my hard work....NOT SO FAST. As soon as the machine started up, the belt made the most annoying whipping sound over and over. The display screen is non-existent...in other words, is a poor feature of this device. You can't even read the display unless you are directly under a light. And last but not least, the machine is built poorly. I put the speed on 5 mph, which is roughly a decent jog and I felt like the machine was going to break on me. The display panel was shaking terribly (keep in mind I double checked all screws more than once to ensure they were tightened) and when you use the incline, the motor makes very loud noises as well. I use my treadmill in the garage so noise isn't a big issue for me, but all the reveiws I've read stated that the machine is very quiet...be vary weary of this...in my experience, it isn't quiet at all! I am 260 lbs and the user capacity is a 300 lb limit. Do not buy this machine if you are a jogger/runner about my size...You will be disappointed with the cheapness feel to the machine. To end on a positive note, the speakers on the treadmill worked very nicely I thought.

I bought this for my kids for Christmas. This is our first treadmill, but we have several other pieces of equipment. This has become our favorite, by far. It is so easy to use! I love the pre-programmed workouts!
