20 programs

 Multiple programs give you variety and challenge to help you reach your fitness goal. You will surely appreciate the 20 built in programs in this machine, as compared to  other brands in the same price range that only offer an average of 7-11 programs.

Comes with fans, oversized pedals, cushioned handle bars, and MP3 player support

Even though it's priced for just $599, we're happy to see several features that are designed for your convenience and d musical enjoyment. The 590E comes with cooling fans to keep you fresh, oversized pedals and cushioned handlebars, plus a built-in sound system allowing you to connect your iPod or other MP3 players to this elliptical.

Intensity ramp

The 590E comes with an incline feature called 'Intensity Ramp'. As its name suggest, this feature adds intensity to your workouts thus making your strides more challenging. This gives you the opportunity to train even harder and get better results.

Cons

No brakes warranty / 1 yr parts

Especially when we're not sure if this elliptical is equipped with eddy Current braking system, lacking any brakes warranty is a turn-off. Even though it has a 1-yr coverage on parts, it's too inferior compared to the 10 years offered by other brands.

Unknown unit weight

One downside with Proform ellipticals is that you don't have access to information with regards to its unit weights. This is important for us to know if its claim of supporting users weighing up to 300lbs is accurate. Ellipticals also need to be heavy for it to be sturdy.
