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.

GBThis is what you get if you order… This is what you get if you order replacement parts from sole and they will only send you a label through the mail for the return and then they have to get the part back before the refund then you have to order a new one and try again. Well I guess you can’t put photos in here. The new screen I ordered can all dusty and looked like someone throw it sliding across a parking lot on it face.

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!?!

GBOn 07/04/23 I purchased the F80… On 07/04/23 I purchased the F80 Treadmill from Sole. I paid for assembly and for a five-year warranty. True to the pattern of bad business documented in these reviews, Sole weaseled their way out of my five-year warranty. The F80 Treadmill started to make loud screeching sounds after only 3 months of use. The replacement parts were broken. After three attempts the technician seemed to fix the treadmill. But a few months later the same problem recurred. This time the technician could not fix the loud screeching. A third time they made the screeching louder by the time they left. The fourth time, they returned just to photograph my room to pretend I was the one to blame for the treadmill's failure. They blamed my cat for its urine on the machine. Yet the machine didn't sound bad after the cat pee, it sounded worse and worse after the technician visits. Sole technicians are not held accountable for their incompetence; the pattern shown in these complaints is that Sole blames the customer. Sole machines are flimsy, low quality but priced high. The Sole company is a bunch of snake oil salesmen who traffic in pretense and fraud with the low quality machines and incompetent technical service.

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.
