GBLimited Functionality with workout apps I have a Sole F80 treadmill (2021 I believe) and it functions fine, but Sole limits the bluetooth functionality so that it will not work with third-party fitness apps to control treadmill incline and speed, which means that you are stuck with their very small built-in workout menu. You can still adjust speed and incline manually, but you will lose so much functionality to use different workout programs of your choice. Asked about a firmware upgrade, SOLE told me sorry, no plans to do anything about that. Basically we have your money, see ya sucker…

GBThank God I didn’t buy from Sole Fitness! I haven’t actually purchased a Sole treadmill yet, but I’m SO grateful for all the negative reviews and warnings I just read regarding Sole’s horrific customer service practices and equipment orders that seem to go “ghost”. I almost made a huge mistake by making a purchase with their company today...thank God I didn’t!! Thanks everyone for your complete honesty 😊

GBExcellent quality. I bought a Sole Fitness R92 recumbent exercise bike. It is very sturdily built, excellent quality, much better than a Schwinn 230 I'd previously purchased and returned after one day. Assembly is a bit tedious, but straight forward with very clear instructions. The control panel is easy to understand, much better than the Schwinn. Seat is comfortable. Sole Fitness is about the only company were you can even buy a high quality exercise bike right now. The web site says it won't ship for 30 days, and that's what I experienced; it did ship shortly after 30 days.

GBI purchased the F65 Treadmill on… I purchased the F65 Treadmill on February 9, 2024 after investing alot of time researching for the highest quality treadmill in the price range from $1,500 to $2,000. I assembled the treadmill on March 3rd. I found the assembly instruction to be inadequate and poorly written. Many of the fasteners to secure the plastic trim to the steel frame would not work. I was shorted two 2 threaded machine bolts for the display. After assembly the treadmill would not operate only the display board. I followed the technical support for a reset the unit from factory sleep mode and still could not get to operated. Disassembled to recheck all wiring connections which I found to be poor quality female to male connections. This unit was fabricated in China very poor quality. I am in the process with Sole this am to return treadmill for a full refund. I would not recommend this brand

GBTerrible customer services Terrible customer services. Prior to writing this I read some reviews on Sole customer service. Ten to one harrable frustrating customer service. Reviews suggested not doing business with these folks if you can avoid them. Some of us already have a sole 300 pound junk bolder in our living room that doesn't work. I will not enter my number. These folks are so bad I'm afraid of retaliation!?!
