Our Review — ProForm Carbon TL
One of the notable features of the Carbon TL treadmill is its 5-inch backlit display, which allows users to track various workout metrics such as calories burned, speed, incline, and heart rate. The treadmill is also iFit compatible, providing access to a wide range of workout programs and interactive features, although this requires a subscription. Users can enjoy a diverse range of workouts, from high terrains and snowy mountains to lush green gardens, with the iFit programs.
The treadmill is foldable, making it a space-saving option for home gyms. It includes transport wheels for easy movement and has a user weight capacity of up to 300 pounds. Additionally, it features Bluetooth audio capabilities with dual 2″ speakers, an audio auxiliary port, and QuickSpeed buttons for easy adjustments of speed and incline.
In terms of assembly, it might be advisable to seek professional help to ensure proper setup. The treadmill also turns off automatically when the Bluetooth feature is switched off, which is a design feature rather than a malfunction.
Customer reviews generally indicate satisfaction with the treadmill’s performance, ease of use, and space-saving design. Some users appreciated its smooth incline and speed transitions, as well as its sturdy build. However, a few users noted issues with assembly and the preprogrammed workouts.
Overall, the features offered make the ProForm Carbon TL treadmill a suitable option for home use, especially for walking and light jogging.
