Conclusion for ProForm 5.5 Crosstrainer treadmill review

The ProForm 5.5 Crosstrainer treadmill is a well designed machine driven by a good 2.25Chp motor and with a lot of stimulation training programs. For this price it offers enough features and it looks like a good buy for a beginner or a walker.

The 5.5 Crosstrainer don’t have any entertainment features like mp3 dock or speakers but we think this is the best you will get for 600$. This treadmill is not a foldable one and has a maximum incline of 10% but comes with a lot of other features that compensate and give value.

We also observed that the ProForm 5.5 Crosstrainer has a longer belt that the user model in the economy class and his mid size motor will handle the job in a decent matter. You may engage occasionally in running sessions at 10 mph but if this becomes a habit you will probably have to replace this treadmill with a better one.
