- Excellent treadmill with features you would expect on a higher-priced treadmill. This approaches commercial quality at a home price.

I just got my f63 yesterday and I do the same thing with my iPad, haha. Great machine!
It's on par with most other treamills in this price range. As you change speeds it is a gradual change. I don't find it a problem and in fact would not really want the speed to change much faster than it does.
4:28 i'll explain it to you. You plug your mp3 player into the treadmill and you plug in your headphones into the machine so you don't drop your mp3 player. It has happened to me in the gym before. Really nice feature if you ask me.
Great review! The only thing that concerns me is setting it up. Did it take a while?
Дорожка высокого уровня, заказывали в магазине Зона Спорта. Зазоры маленькие все детали подогнаны безупречно, пластик не пахнет. По характеристикам полная комплектация, хотелось что бы по максимуму) В общем всей семье тренажер очень понравился, и даже друзьям которые приходят в гости. Дорожка класс!!!
No kidding, lol. I'll have to go looking for it, thanks!
Yes, you can adjust speed up to 12mph
Hey Michael, unrelated to this video, I had a question. I watched your review of your Keurig and in the background you had your uniden cordless mounted on something--looks pretty handy, can you tell me what it is, I have the same phone.
Hi Michael, We are currently looking at the Sole and was wondering how fast is the response time between its speed settings? Thanks in advance!
Also, how long have you had this treadmill? I looked at some reviews and a few of them said after several months, they've encountered some problems. I would hate to go through that problem as well, since this treadmill isn't exactly cheap... :(
LOL... man you've got a sharp eye! It's actually just the base station and wall mount that was included with the phone. Didn't you get one with yours?
Also, how well do the speakers work on the unit? Thanks!
$1499 from Sole. Less from Sears Outlet stores although I would not recommend that as I bought my first one from Sears Outlet and the delivery was so botched they basically destroyed the machine and had to order me a brand new one... on the other hand that worked out pretty good for me :-)
what increments does it change the speed by? ie 0.1 mph increments, etc. thanks!
Are you able to adjust the speed to whatever you want?
I have read some reviews about how difficult the set up for this was. Did you set yours up or did the delivery ppl set it up? If you did how difficult is it to set up?
I set it up myself and yes it was a bit tricky. Care had to be taken and its best done by two people working together.
Have you had any problems with motor overheating? I notice that sometimes when I do a 60 minute workout I notice a motor smell and the motor gets too hot to touch.
Haven't had that problem and I've used it for up to 2 hours at a time at speeds 4-6mph and I'm about 200 lbs.
The speed increments are by .1
So this treadmill will run 1 hour 39 minutes before it shuts down ?
Did you assemble this treadmill or did you pay for someone to assemble it for you?
If you did it yourself - how easy was it to put together?
Just asking because I'm probably going to purchase it here in the next week or so and will need to figure out if I want to shell out the $120 fee to have someone assemble it for me. Thanks!
I had the delivery guys take it into my basement. They were clearly not going to do a good job so I stopped them and put it together myself. It's a little tricky and you really need two people to do it properly since the pieces are large and one person needs to hold a piece in position while the other tightens things. I'd suggest having the assembly done for you but keep an eye on them while they do it because it's easy to screw up a couple things if you've never done it before and aren't careful.
I hope you don't get the dreaded LS1 low speed error. It seems like a known issue with the F63 and F80 models. I am almost at my wits end with this company. If I get another replacement part from spirit fitness the warranty provider, I'm going to scream.
How the machine is working now? i mean what is the present situation..??
I am going to buy Sole F63 how is that for buy??
Note: My weight is 125 KG and height is 5'11" will it match to me??
I am not familiar with the F63. I recently sold my F80. It was perfect and I've had no problems with it during my ownership. I sold it because I moved and no longer had room for it.
I can think of one reason to use the headphone jack rather than your device. I have caught my headphone cord with my swinging arms and knocked my very expensive iPhone onto the deck almost stepping on it. I would rather yank it out of a jack than have my phone fall off. However I have decided a Bluetooth headphone was the way to go since I can’t control my arm swing. LOL
FlygirlTRE2011 makes sense to me. Thanks
looking to get an f80 2013 model from marketplace for $400. Is that good? What should I be concerned? any advice?
That would be a 9 year old machine. I would be hesitant unless you are able to check it out thoroughly before purchase. Depending on how much use it has had, it could have parts that need servicing or even replacement. Be careful.
I hear there are lot L1 Low speed error issues with Sole F models, did you face it ?
I am aware that the error is discussed frequently. I've not experienced it.
OK.I am thinking of buying Sole F80 (lot of L1 errors letting me down) but also see Lifespan TR2000e which gives lifetime warranty on motor (but 2.5 CHP) for the same price range. I am confused which one to buy , do you have any recommendations?
How long does one of these last??
With proper care and maintenance they can last many years. It really depends on how much use it gets.
how much is this treadmill?
do not buy this mine got the LS1 error code and now the fun begins trying to fix this... $1,000 down the drain.......
