There are many people who decided to go with a Proform Crosswalk treadmill because of the benefits it offers. This brands is known for the bells and whistles they offer with their fitness equipment. And this is exactly what draws many customers to their treadmills and elliptical trainers. Maybe you will like what they have to offer after you read this short but useful review.

What you want to know is does Proform offer a good value for your money. There is not simple answer to this question. But I think it will help if I say that their models are known as low cost machines that are very affordable for most people. Proform treadmills range mostly from $500 to $1,000 and are meant for low to mid level market. These are not anywhere near some high quality units that Precor or Landice offer. For under $1,000 you can get a machine that is good for walking and jogging only. For anything more serious and long lasting, you will need to invest more money.

Proform Crosswalk has a lot of interesting features, like CD player, built in TV and workout fans that keep you cool during the workout routine. Usually, these features are considered as luxury. They are meant to occupy your attention so you would not have a boring exercising routine. But there is one catch. Since these machines cost less then $1,000, all the money goes for those bells and whistles. Th problem Proform has is the durability of their treadmills. They are trying to change this and in the last few years the quality of the parts they install is better. Still, there is much to be desired when it comes to durability.

You just need to compare one Proform Crosswalk treadmill with one model from Smooth. The prices are almost the same, but Smooth has a lifetime warranty while Proform offers only a 90 days warranty. This is still a bit of a problem and needs to be solved. Of course, there are many people who buy these treadmill because they are drawn to TVs and CD players installed. But they realize they made a mistake in several months after the purchase.

I hope that the warranty will improve, because the 90 days shows that Proform does not have the confidence in the product it is offering. Still, if you decide you want a Crosswalk, make sure you get it from manufacturer to save the money. And make sure you get a newer model, they have better parts installed and the motor will last longer then those on the old models would.
