What We Don’t Like:

It does not have a cooling-fan: the ProForm 6.0 RT is not integrated with cooling-fan yet even much cheaper treadmills contain a cooling-fan. This means that you will sweat and feel uncomfortable while using this treadmill.
A Narrower running-area: the ProForm 6.0 RT treadmill features a slightly shorter and narrow treadbelt compared to other standard treadmills on the market. This means that you will have to sacrifice some comfort most especially for taller people when working-out on this treadmill.
