Sole F80 Review: Why The Sole F80 Treadmill Is Rated a Best Buy
If the Hilton Hotel and other upscale hotel chains make exercise machines available in their establishments for their patrons, I want to know what they are so I can check them out for myself. In regards to treadmills, I found out that the Sole F80 treadmill by Sole Fitness is the choice of Hilton and other high-end, upper scale hotels and businesses.
My first impression of the machine was that it was a solid commercial quality treadmill. At first I didn’t think it was anything fancy. But, first assumptions are often wrong. The Sole F80 is packed with some interesting features like six workout programs, cooling fans, and speed and incline controls in the arm rests, as well as built in speakers for MP3 players or iPODS. Pretty impressive!
As solid and durable as the machine is, the Sole F80 comes with an easy assist folding feature. This is ideal for someone who wants the machine in their home. I found the machine to be easy to push around and maneuver, too. This is great for someone who needs to put their treadmill in a closet or corner after a workout. My opinion is the Sole F80 is a space saver and it would make a great home treadmill for someone who is in the market for one.
The Sole F80 went through an upgrade in 2008. It now comes with a quiet, but powerful 3.0 continuous duty motor. The treadmill is very smooth and it can easily accommodate a large person up to 350 pounds. In my opinion the machine is most suited for people who will be walking or jogging on it. Runners should probably opt for a different treadmill, one that has more horsepower.
Sole Fitness is known for its outstanding warranties. The warranty on the Sole F80 is well above par offering a lifetime warranty on the motor, frame and deck. The price of the Sole F80 is less than what I would have thought, considering the durability, features and warranty that comes with the machine. Add the $500 instant savings when you purchase the machine directly from Sole Fitness, and I see why the Sole F80 is the number one choice for the Hilton Hotel chain and others. It’s a great treadmill.
