proform 755 treadmill reviewThe ProForm 755 is not a heavy-duty treadmill, but it is a good value for a budget treadmill.

If you are looking for a machine that can handle runners, multiple users or excessively overweight individuals, this is not the treadmill for you. However, if you plan to primarily walk, the 755 is worth considering.

The ProForm 755 treadmill offers a nice selection of features, designed to assist you in achieving your fitness goals like getting in shape and losing weight.

ProForm 755 Treadmill Features:

proform 755 console20" x 55" Treadbelt - If you are a walker, this treadbelt is an adequate length for individuals up to approximately 6'3". You'll find some models in this price range have an 18" wide belt and a short length. It feels very confining.

2.25 Continuous Duty HP Motor - This motor will suffice for walkers, and should not strain when you crank up the incline.

Console with Fan - The console is designed well. You have can change the speed and incline with a touch of a button, rather than having to scroll up and down.

The display is cheap, but that is to be expected with a budget model. Regardless, it provides multiple feedback, like time, speed, calories burned, pulse rate. You get a 2-speed fan that helps cool you down.

Twelve Training Programs - The ProForm 755 treadmill has twelve programs, offering a variety of challenges. I find using different workouts tends to motivate me, and overcomes the boredom of walking in place. The programs includes upper body, lower body and total body scuplting programs. I believe the incorporate the set of weights that are included with the treadmill. You also get two user defined programs.

As with most treadmills in this price range you get hand grip pulse sensors. This give you feedback on your heart rate, which can assist you in getting an optimum workout. Once you determined your acceptable heart rate exertion, you can work within that range in order to burn the most calories. (Note: Check with your physician on your proper heart rate level for exercising.)

750 foldedEasy Fold - The ProForm 755 treadmill is designed with shocks for folding. This makes it effortless for lifting or dropping the deck.

Warranty - Except for the motor coverage, the warranty is weak. That is because ProForm hopes to upsell you on an extended warranty, which you want to purchase. The current coverage is 90-days parts and labor, the motor is covered for 12 years. You probably want to extend that by 1-2 years at the checkout.

Note: As with most treadmill manufacturers, ProForm overexagerates the weight limit. It is a typical marketing ploy. They place it at 300 lbs., I would not recommend this treadmill to anyone over 250 lbs.

Our Review - ProForm 755 Treadmill

If your budget is limited to around $700, then the ProForm 755 is one of your better buys. The features are decent, and the quality is above average in comparison to other models in this price range. If you can afford a few hundred dollars more consider the NordicTrack C 2155 (Built by the same company - Lifetime motor, 1-year parts and labor.), or the Smooth 5.45 (Lifetime motor, 3 years parts and 1 year labor.)
