Sole F83 Treadmill Review

Now for our Sole F83 Treadmill Review . . .

One of the best cardiovascular exercises that can be done by people of all ages is walking. Walking is good for the lungs, heart, and entire circulatory system, contributing to a healthy lifestyle.

However, walking or running can also be considered a tiring ordeal because of the impact generated on lower parts of the body and back when long distances are travelled. The distance required to travel back home can cause further trouble especially during tough weather conditions.

A treadmill can solve this problem as long as it has good electronics for tracking an effective workout while providing additional comfort to encourage exercisers to stay at home. The Sole F83 Treadmill strives to be one of those good devices while having an attractive price tag.

Let's take a closer look . . .

Sole F83 Treadmill - Main Features

Being part of the F series, the F83 has the unique feature to fold into a compact size using a lift-assist for easy and secure storage. This makes it look smaller when compared to the commercial-class treadmills, but the 3.0 continuous-duty horsepower motor that can deliver 0.1 to 12 miles per hour is impressive, and plenty powerful enough for most users.

Other useful features include the tri-color LED display, which has a message board for clear instructions and feedback. And with the easy-assist folding system, storing this treadmill is quite simple.

Sole F83 Benefits

In addition to the space-saving benefits, the Sole F83 Treadmill is offers excellent tracking features. It allows users to track their distance traveled, speed, incline, time, pulse, and pace.

It is also an easier treadmill to use even for those that never used a treadmill before as it contains six auto workout programs and two custom programs that make use of the message board for displaying useful graphs.

These built-in programs can be used with the 1/4-mile track feature to use a peak-and-valley graph as a reference to track progress. The two heart rate control programs are also useful for losing weight because the target heart rate zone is automatically generated based on your age.

This Sole treadmill is also more comfortable than other treadmills thanks to the Cushion Flex deck, which reduces the impact by up to 40% compared to walking or running on asphalt.

There is also a wireless chest strap to measure your heart rate, a much more accurate gauge than the hand grip sensors used on other models.

Technical Specifications

Unlike the more expensive Sole F85, the maximum weight capacity of the Sole F83 is 375 pounds, but it also makes it a little bit smaller in length measuring 78 inches. With the F83, you get a spacious running surface of 20 by 58 inches long.

Other key specs include an incline elevation up to 15%, a speed range of 0 to 12mph, a two-ply belt, and built-in cooling fans.

The accessory tray is another nice bonus. It offers convenient storage of water bottles and other items you may wish to have on hand during your workout session.

Consumer Feedback

The Sole F83 Treadmill has received high remarks from consumers on Amazon. Much of the praise focused on its Whisper deck, which runs quieter than the Sole F63. Other reviewers appreciated the solid frame. Customers recommended the Sole F83 treadmill for people 6 feet or taller, and for anyone who desires a quality machine for home use.
