I just wanted to let you all know that I purchased a proform treadmill two years ago with the intention on walking on it every day and I must say that I have been very good about it, not that I get on it every day but I try to at least five times a week for 2-4 miles at a time. I like the proform because the motor is quiet and it's easy to use, it tells me my distance, minutes walked calories burned and fat calories burned. I am very happy with it. I would recommend this brand to anyone, I went with the middle priced one but I'm confident that the cheaper end would still have been just as good in the proform brand. So far I have had no problems so if your looking to buy a treadmill proform will have a model to fit your needs. Oh yes, by the way I have lost 50 pounds in the last two years just walking on this treadmill.
