Proform 840 Treadmill Review

The Proform 840 Treadmill is an attempt by Proform to pack as many selling features into as nicely a bundled package as possilbe and still keep the price down below the dreaded $1000 mark that manufacturers fear, and consumers dread...

Did Proform succeed in their mission with the 840 treadmill? I think they did for multiple reasons.

One of the things I think Proform did right with the 840 treadmill was to include a good motor (2.25 hp MachZ) with a good solid warranty of 12 years.

If the motor inside the 840 was a pile of junk, Proform wouldn't stand behind it like they do.

Some of the other nice goodies on the Proform 840 include a good sized treadbelt that you can actually run on (19" x 55") a high user weight capacity of 300 pounds, power incline and speed control, and their Proshox Impact system that, granted, won't fool you into thinking you're running on a $2000 treadmill like a Sole S77, but it functions well for this price range.

If you're looking for a treadmill in the $501-799 dollar range, you'll be hard pressed to beat the Proform 840 Treadmill.
