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 😊

GBPurchased LCB (2020 model) exercise… Purchased LCB (2020 model) exercise bike on 1/8/2024 that had the power control switch completely missing stated is located beside line cord plug. Called twice agents said there is nothing they can do. Wrote a CHAT request for assistance and they never replied. Now, the only way to completely power off is to unplug and re-plug each time.

GBWorst Company I’ve ever dealt with I spoke with customer service. I reached out to several senior leadership including the CEO. My message was below: I ’ve had some trouble with customer service with Sole from the very beginning of our interactions and I was hoping I could get some support from senior management on this. Upon purchasing 2 units (a little over a year ago) 1 for my wife and 1 for myself we had a hellish experience dealing with the logistics and delivery company. One unit was delivered when both were supposed to be. They were put together incorrectly when I paid for them to be put together fully. It took weeks for the next one to be delivered at which point I had actually delayed a business trip I was supposed to be on for a month. It cost me a fair amount of money logistically to re-arrange everything and get everything back together. Davis Johnson was my sales rep. When reaching out to him and his management it was a constant finger pointing between the logistics company and sole. No one really took ownership and fixed the issues. The second unit was delivered and was still not assembled correctly. Speed knobs didn’t work, back safety mechanism for the belt wasn’t installed, etc. neither machines were appropriately leveled, and all the left over parts were left scattered Fast forward to this year, on my wife’s treadmill, heavy rust has begun eating its way down the Metal arms of the unit and her Screen stopped working. On my unit the belt is completely slipping, the arms are rusting, the stop/start button has slipped out of its housing unit, and the screen intermittently will stop working. I called customer service and was told that I was 1 month out of warranty for the screen and I never heard anything about the rust issues the belt issues or anything else. It feels like when someone spends almost $7k with your company it should stand by its product more than telling someone they are a month out of warranty so tough luck. Not a single person responded.

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

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.
