The Proform 810 Treadmill - Review

Proform have built a reputation on budget priced fitness equipment. The Proform 810 treadmill is towards the middle of their product range in terms of price. It comes with a range of features that make it worthy of consideration as a first treadmill, or somebody that is trading up.

One of the best features that it has is its compatibility with iFit. This technology lets you fit a computer card into the console and you are able to get a customized workout that will help you reach your exercise goals. There are cards that focus on weight loss and increasing performance. The computer automatically adjusts the incline and speed of your treadmill as well as giving verbal instructions. Why use the personal instructor at a healthclub when you can get all the benefits at home?

The treadmill has 20 workout programs including 4 special distance-training workouts. There are easy controls to allow you to quickly alter the speed and incline. You can run at up to 12 mph and the incline will work at up to 12%.

If you like to listen to your favourite songs while you workout, you can plug your iPod into the docking station. Meanwhile, you can monitor your progress on the Clearview 8-inch screen.

The Proform 810 treadmill has a quality 2.25 hp motor and like other models in the range it has cushioning technology. This helps to reduce stress and strain on the joints.

This treadmill is a fold up model making it ideal for use in any room in the house. It has lift assist, which enables you to easily fold the machine away for storage. In addition there is an easy drop system that slowly lowers the running deck when you are ready to use it next time. There are also wheels to assist you in moving the machine.

There is a lifetime parts, 15-year motor, and one-year parts and labour warranty.
