Is anyone else having problems with the front area where the screen is and the handles moving a ton while running? Is my floor uneven? I feel like I’ve tightened everything and it just moves a ton. Am I running too close to the front? Are other people experiencing this? Even my 9 year old son gets on and it’s rocking/swaying/wobbling. It’s not a shake. But it’s definitely moving like something isn’t tight but it’s completely tightened
Great review! Is this a good treadmill for an ok runner who averages 20-25 miles/week? (Do you have a video for 'Best Treadmills for Runners'?) thanks!
Yes, this treadmill should work well for a runner doing 20-25 miles per week. We would love to do a Best Treadmills for Runners video, but we don't have an current one yet!
would you choose this or the ProForm TLX? I want to walk on incline while reading, or runs no more than 5 miles. Programming isn't a feature I need and am mostly interested in whichever has better durability, quieter, and convenience of use.
The Sole F63 has 15 levels of incline that max out at about 12%. It would depend on the treadmill you are comparing it to. Some commercial treadmills have a 12% max while others have a 15% max incline.
I just purchased this one (not delivered yet) you mention going to the F80 if you train more than an hour a day. I do a little more than an hour a day, just walking. I do 4 miles and it takes about 1hr 6 min. Are you saying going up due to the wear and tear or some other reason.
You should be just fine with the F63. It's because of the motor size. If you were running for an hour or more every day, a more powerful motor might hold up better under more intense use. The F63 is perfect for walking!
Does this tread have ftms? Will it work with zwift and peloton? Are the speed and incline buttons in an accessible place as they look to be in an awkward place. Is this a better tread than the bowflex bj8?
The F63 connects with Zwift via Bluetooth, but I haven't had any luck with the Peloton app. The speed and incline buttons are not my favorite, but they work.
So attempting 4-6 miles a day walking wouldnt be good for this treadmill? I am going from 0 activity to wanting to use something 5-6 days a week for walking then maybe a little running down the line
4 to 6 miles of walking per day would be fine! It's hard to say exactly what a treadmill can handle. Personally, I would want to upgrade to the Sole F80 if I was running 5+ miles per day.
@@BestTreadmillReviews I naturally came to that conclusion. I bought a nordictrack t series 5 and it wouldn’t handle my weight.. soon as I step on, it would shut off.. I was at a dicks sporting goods yesterday and tried the f85 and 63. Ordering the 80 today. It will do everything I need and last. I have never been a runner so I will start by walking and hopefully work my way up to a 5k. I’m on a journey to become healthier. Thanks for the videos and replies! They really do help
Both are great options. I prefer the feel of the ProForm TLX and I like the iFIT training content, but the Sole F63 has built-in programs and is quieter than the TLX.
@@BestTreadmillReviewsthanks for the reply! I see so so many awful reviews about the software of the ifit programs and their trust pilot score is awful. Since the TLX has no screen are the ifit software updates etc an issue?
I'm new to buying a treadmill for home use so at 3:23 when you say walkers or runners who want a treadmill for an hour or more for daily training might want to consider the F80? What did you mean by that?
While the F63 is a good entry-level treadmill, if you are exercising for an extended period of time every day, you might want something a little more powerful like the F80. It has a stronger motor and a sturdier build so it will hold up longer under heavier use. I hope that helps!

Nice Review! When using your kindle, you're running or walking? I feel like I might get that car sick feeling if trying that out... lol
I'll read my Kindle if I am running slow. I don't normally get car sick, but I can definitely see how it would be a problem for those that do!

Oh no! Definitely try adjusting the leveling feet to see if that helps.
Nice video, which one do you recommend the sole F 63 or the horizon 7.0?
If I had to pick, I would have to go with the Horizon 7.0 AT, but they are pretty similar.
thanks@@BestTreadmillReviews
I'm curious to hear why? I was trying to decide between these two treadmills and bought the sole F63 this morning.@@BestTreadmillReviews

While I like both, the Sole F63 is a quieter treadmill and does not require you to create an iFIT account like the TLX does.
would you say the incline 15% is the same height compared to a gym tredmil?
The Sole F63 has 15 levels of incline that max out at about 12%. It would depend on the treadmill you are comparing it to. Some commercial treadmills have a 12% max while others have a 15% max incline.

I saw your review of the Horizon 7.0 AT and you stated that the deck is pretty firm, is the same case for the Sole F63? Thanks...
The F63 is more firm than the 7.0 AT.

What would you pick between the sold f63 vs proform TLX? For a complete beginner

Hi nice video 🔥 can I connect this with Apple fitness
I don't think so. Sole+ doesn't connect to Apple Fitness yet either.
is the tablet holder adjustable to different sizes?
Yes!

@@BestTreadmillReviews Thank You this definitely helps. I'll keep this in mind while looking.
How big of tablet can the tablet holder accommodate?
The lower tablet rack is 13 inches long, and the top rack can accommodate a tablet with a maximum height/width of 9.5 inches.
Can the top rack accommodate an iPad Pro 12.9?
I don't have a tablet with its dimensions to test out, but it should fit.@@rafster1882
@@BestTreadmillReviews thanks. I’ve currently got a bowflex bxj8. Would you say that the f63 is better and does the f63 have better cushioning?
@@rafster1882 I haven't run on the BXT8J, but I would guess they are pretty similar. Bowflex and Sole both have firm cushioning.
