After reading all the rave reviews on the Sole F85, I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. Why were so many people excited about this machine? Why is it Sole Fitness’ number one selling treadmill? So, I took a look at it for myself.
The first thing I noticed that distinguished the Sole F85 Treadmill from other treadmills is its well designed, sturdy construction. The treadmill’s durable construction ensures that it will last for years. The treadmill’s sturdy and durable construction also allowed the manufacturer to put some really great features on the machine.
The large running area is one thing that really stands out about the Sole F85. It is ideal for people of any size. It will even accommodate people who weigh up to 400 pounds, tall people, or people who are really intense on a machine-like runners. The motor is a quiet, ultra smooth, powerful 3.5 continuous duty horsepower motor that can handle even the most intense pressure.
The shock absorption deck on the Sole F85 is really nice. The treadmill has a Cushion Flex deck that will let people walk or run longer because it takes the pressure off of the knees and joints. According to many consumer reviews, the deck absorbs the shock better than most treadmills they have used.
The Sole F85 is very stable and strong. The frame alone weighs in at 280 pounds. Yet, despite its weight, it is easy to fold due to its easy assist folding feature. I also found that the treadmill is easy to roll around and maneuver, too. This makes it ideal for people who need to move their machine after using it.
It’s easy to see that a lot of thought went into the Sole F85 to make it consumer friendly. The company has put two onboard cooling fans on the treadmill, along with built in speakers that you can use for your MP3 players or iPod. This treadmill is certainly a lot different from the relics of the past!
The Sole F85 treadmill has other features consumers will like too such as speed and incline controls on the arm rests, a lifetime warranty on the motor, deck and frame, and a five year warranty on parts. If you are in the market for a new folding treadmill, make sure the Sole F85 is at the top of your list.
