Pro Form XP 590s Treadmill - Just Look In Sears. . . That Was Quick
Sears offers the Pro Form XP 590s treadmill as part of its exclusive XP Series manufactured by Proform.
The XP Series includes, in addition to the Pro Form XP 590s treadmills, the 542s, 542e, and XP 800VF.
All are moderately priced or economy models, depending on your point of view, which closely match older Proform models like the 345, 840, and 860 but with upgraded features and design suitable for home fitness and sports training as well as weight loss programs.
Proform, part of Icon Health and Fitness, Inc. since 1994, is the largest manufacturer of quality treadmills worldwide for training, weight loss, and personal health. Though Icon brands are known to skimp on quality in favor of features, they are also commonly rated among Best Buys in their class.
You Get On It, Sears Stands Behind It
The XP 590s treadmill is suitable for large people or users who like to run full bore.
Its cushioned running deck is 19x55", pretty good size, with up to 10% powered incline. Its top speed is 10MPH, pushed by a 2.75HP motor.
The Proform 590s, like the XP542e, a smaller treadmill but largely sharing the 590s features, includes a Carb Counter, among all sorts of other readouts, in case you're fitness regimen follows a low-carb weight loss program.
Preset workouts and iFit®, an interactive technology that provides workouts on CD or online, are also featured along with ePort™ for playing MP3's.
A nice feature is the lift assist for fold-away storage.
Warranties on the XP 590s are, like most Icon warranties, pretty weak - a few years on the motor but only 90 days on everything else.
Still, Sears makes extended warranties available for $150 or less and Sears service is available.
The Pro Form XP 590s sells for less than $900 at Sears, so all things taken into consideration, they're a pretty good reason to check them out.
