When the COVID-19 pandemic ruptured the fitness equipment supply chain and made physical weights hard to come by (and insanely expensive), digital at-home workout options began to soar. Notably, many companies are mimicking the original, luxury fitness mirror (called, plainly but aptly, the MIRROR). Find out why we think the ProForm Vue mirror is currently a better deal than the MIRROR even though the price is almost the same.
ProForm Mirror is Called ‘Vue’ and Has Weights
ProForm, a longstanding and reputable fitness equipment manufacturer took the concept of a smart connected fitness mirror one step further by including physical weights. This is important because no matter how intense the classes or how sleek the machine, nothing stacks up to the sense of sweat accomplishment that comes with throwing down some weights.
ProForm realized this and took a stab at solving the problem with ProForm Vue, a smart fitness mirror that combines the digital and connected fitness experience with a true weightlifting experience. And it only costs a cup of coffee more than the original.

Why ProForm Vue Is a Better Deal Than MIRROR
Plus, you get a full year of the iFit subscription free with the Vue. That alone is a $468 value. MIRROR’s membership for workout access costs $39/month and billing begins upon delivery of your MIRROR device.
MIRROR does win one category, and that’s the number of workout class options. MIRROR offers workouts in more than 50 categories with new workouts added weekly. Comparatively, the iFit app still offers plenty of workout classes, though, so you shouldn’t worry about exhausting your options.
