Thank 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 😊

Horrible Support on New Sole F80 treadmill… I purchased a new Sole F80 treadmill with white glove delivery and setup. After geeting the treadmill setup and installed, it was perfect. However, I didnt realize the white glove installers had installed the main display screen crooked. I immediately called Sole Fitness and it's affiliated warranty company to see how Sole would take care of this improperly installed display screen, considering the treadmill was brand new. This is where I have my issue. I was advised, "I would have to fix it myself." I said, "WHAT!?" I expressed that I paid $350 for set up and I would now have fix an improperly setup treadmill that I didn't set up. You can see where my dismay and anger is from. This treadmill is brand new, not even a week old and never used yet. At this time, out of principle, Im about to return this Sole F80 treadmill for a complete refund. The fact that I was told to handle the repair is an insult, and far from what I expected from deciding to go with a Sole treadmill. So while I'm quite sure the treadmill is solid, beware the lousy inconsiderate after support as well as the poorly done initial setup, which is not worth $350. I hope I'm contacted by Sole as this is an embarrassing situation for them Sincerely, Chris C.

Worst 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.

Lousy customer support Bought a Sole F63 treadmill in 2017. My wife and put about 600-700 miles per year on a treadmill. Mostly during winter months. After 5 years, this treadmill sparked, causing a small fire. The damage was only to the control board. After contacting Sole, they sent a new motor and said the control board was on order. Well, guess what, I’m still waiting for the control board. Whenever, i contact Sole, they say that they are still waiting for a shipment(?) New treadmills are being sold, but sold ones are not being supported. Very disappointing.

Limited 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…
