Sole F83 Treadmill Review

Is this for you:

Sole Fitness has made an excellent valued treadmill with an overall good package. By putting together good components with a long warranty, Sole treadmills are setting themselves apart from the market. The Sole F83 treadmill is yet another solid model by this manufacturer.

Compared to the Sole F80, the Sole F83 treadmill has a few upgrades. A longer running surface and a reinforced frame that allows for a higher weight capacity. It is worth the additional $200, we will leave that to you…

Key Features:

The Sole F83 treadmill features one touch speed and incline buttons to jump straight to your desired speed/incline. It also features the low impact Cushion flex deck with a Safety Lock Deck design that locks the deck into place when the treadmill is folded in the upright position.

The Sole F83 treadmill has an Easy Assist Folding Deck Design to easily lower the treadmill’s deck. Its 20 x 58 inch belt is a good size while the 3.0 HP motor can delivers speeds up to 12 mph and inclines up to 15%.

The F83 Sole has one of the strongest warranty in its price range with lifetime on frame, deck and motor, 5 years on the electronics/belt/rollers and 2 years on labor.

Looking at its decks, the Cushion Flex Decks offered on all Sole treadmills allow for low impact, joint friendly workouts. The Whisper Decks
 have a phenolic coating to make them smooth, quiet and durable.

Final verdict:

The Sole F83 treadmill has it all. A strong warranty, high powered motor, numerous features and reliable parts. We strongly recommend this model.

The F83 Sole is a compromise between the F80 and F85; which are models we recommend.
