However it has only a very short 14 inch stride length which precludes anyone
with normal or longer length legs from using this elliptical trainer comfortably.
arrived just 2 weeks after our order. However it was broken and could not be
assembled to conduct our testing. We contacted customer service to get a
replacement. This request was refused but a technician was scheduled to repair
it. The repairman took 10 more days to arrive and immediately stated it was not
repairable. After 3 more weeks we did receive a replacement 675 elliptical
trainer. After setting it up our smallest tester who has literally hundreds of hours
of elliptical trainer time took it for an initial ride. All went well for about 30
minutes when it started to generate considerable noise. After some tightening
up the elliptical trainer the test was continued.
After one hour of riding the Proform 675 our tester took a break and let our
second tester take the elliptical trainer for a ride. It was immediately noted that
the display console was not working. Despite several attempts to get it working
we concluded it was dead. Again we called customer service for assistance.
They were clearly irritated with our request for a new console and a visit from
the technician. They did not answer our emails and only because we had access
to supervisor numbers at Icon were we able to get the problem resolved. All this
required another 12 days of delay.
The technician came and replaced the Proform 675 elliptical trainer console and
it tested out just fine but as we were testing it, an additional problem developed.
The technician noted that something was wrong with the magnetic resistance.
After examination he stated that the SMR silent magnetic resistance unit was
failing and would have to be replaced. Again we spent a good deal of time on the
phone with customer service since they did not answer our emails. We decided
to ask for a refund under the 30 refund clause. We were told that more than 30
days had elapsed since we had purchase the Proform 675 elliptical trainer and
we did not qualify.
In gathering background information on this unit we came across a good number
of customer reviews that found the Proform 675 to be a very poor piece of
fitness equipment. The total lack of any quality and the extremely poor customer
service was a common thread through most product reviews. We strongly
recommend that you do not buy the Proform 675 elliptical trainer. Again it is
unwise to purchase any elliptical trainer that does not have an initial cost of at
least $1000.00. It is paramount that you check customer reviews before you
consider purchasing any elliptical trainer.
