Sole F83 Treadmill

The Sole F83 Treadmill is built for serious runners with a powerful motor and a great warranty cover – probably the best offered by any fitness equipment manufacturers in the industry. Though this is a folding treadmill for residential use, the quality is definitely club class. Let us take a look at the specifications of the Sole F83 Treadmill:

I am yet to see a warranty as desirable as this – lifetime on frame and deck, 30 years on motor, 5 years on electronic and other parts and 2 years on labor. Because it is priced at USD 1800, it comes with advantages of a powerful and relatively silent motor and good belt cushioning that I found particularly easy on the ankles and shins.

The Sole F83 is priced at USD 1800. It gives a good variety of programs that will keep the runner from getting bored. For a residential model, the Sole 83 Treadmill claims to give a great shock reduction value for lower limbs and joints at 40% and it has the full incline range.

The speed and incline control buttons are on the arm rests which means Sole has thought of those who walk, jog or run or use inclines holding the rails. They need not take their hands off the arm rest/rails to adjust their speed or inclines. This is safe for those who need it and reflects Sole’s philosophy to serve and include more.

You may have to spend a packet on the Sole F83, it comes from a very reliable manufacturer that gives some of the best machines in terms of sturdiness, warranty, safety and minimum maintenance co-efficient.

The only issue you may want to watch for is that of the maximum user load it can take – 350 lbs. If you are close to this figure, you may want to go for non-folding treadmills.

MY RATING FOR THE SOLE F83 TREADMILL = 4.25 out of 5 stars.
