GBBe wary of third party support After using my previous elliptical for over 14 years, I did a ton of research before deciding on the E95S from Sole. I opted for the additional fees to have it assembled when delivered. Unfortunately, the second or third time I used it, the legs started jumping track. I called Sole support and a helpful person offered to send a tech to fix it. The third party firm that Sole uses for support has no-showed for multiple appointments and now, three months later, I'm still trying to get someone to show up to fix it. Next time, I'll buy locally from someone that will come to my house and fix it if it doesn't work (especially within weeks of purchase). Disappointing experience for a $2k purchase.

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.

GBAppalling post sale service We bought a new F80 treadmill in December 2020 and belt is not alligned, rubbing and chafing on one side, which makes machine inoperable. Waiting times to reach CS avarages 1 hour. I've had to call more than twice to get the same issue resolved. Finally they are sending technician to tune the machine, but they have not called to schedule appintment, despite they said I would be contacted in maximum three days. Four days have passed and no one has contacted me... as I write this review I've been over 1 hour waiting to speak to someone.

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 😊

GBLousy 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.
