Our Review — ProForm PRO 2500

The ProForm PRO 2500 treadmill is a great value when you consider the multiple features and the innovative technology of iFit Live. 

Here is another consideration.  Check out the ProForm Performance 1450 treadmill.  It lacks the decline feature, but it has a 10" full color touch screen display with an Android browser.  You can surf the web while you workout, or access the Google Maps features of iFit live and watch your progress through a street, earth or satellite view right on your console.  Selling for $1,499.

All three treadmills are good choices.
