ProForm is launching the Power series in treadmills looking into 2010. The ProForm Power 690 Treadmill is one of these 3 new models. They are pretty much the same as the anterior models with some added features that are worth to take a look at, such like the new iFit technology.

The new iFit technology is the highlight for these new treadmills, it allows you to connect wirelessly to the internet and connecting to a iFit Live account you can choose trails from all over the world and run on them, plus it gives you an online profile that you can manage to your preferences, workout online with videos and tips from Jillian Michaels, or even race your friends from Facebook in 5K races.

The little brother from the new Power series

The ProForm Power 690 Treadmill covers all the basics and has a great package of features that will make every dollar spent on it worth it. From the Grafixx Display, to the 16 built in workouts, the ProTech Adjustable Cushioning and the iPod ready music port, it has everything you need for an excellent workout.

The 2.75 CHP Mach Z Commercial Plus Motor is smooth, consistent and self cooling, good for walking and jogging. The ProTech Cushioning system reduces impact by 15% on your joints, delivering a comfortable walking surface. And the convenient Quick Incline and Speed controls allow you to control your won settings with max speed of 12 MPH and 0 to 12 degrees incline.

With 300 pounds max user weight, this treadmill is just saying of what it is made off and the lifetime warranty on frame and motor shows how ProForm stands behind this treadmill. Enjoy your workouts with a Universal iPod dock and the built-in Intermix Acoustics 2.0 EQ Sound System. Plus a CoolAire workout fan, that can be adjusted with high and low fan speeds.

Any of the 3 new Power models from ProForm for 2010 are good and the price is within the same range with some differences in the features, which may or may not mean much to you as a user, depending on what you expect of a treadmill. Our advice, wait and save some dollars by buying the one that you can find on sale.

Proform Power 690 at a Glance…

Pros:

  1. iFit compatible
  2. Built in sound system, iPod and MP3 compatible
  3. Good 2.5 CHP motor, with 12MPH max speed

Cons:

    The ProForm Power 690 Treadmill is the little brother from the new series of treadmills from ProForm for 2010. Even so, the difference in features isn’t that significant and this treadmill can meet a beginner need of a treadmill at an affordable price. For more advanced options you can check the other models. Overall they are the same and either one will be a good choice for you and your family.
