Sole F85 Folding Treadmill -“One of the Best Fold-Ups on the Planet”

The Sole F85 folding treadmill is the fruition of what the F83 starts. It’s essentially the same treadmill but with upgrades that make it more suitable to serious runners.

The Machine

As always we are impressed by the double horseshoe design of the folding mechanism and the speed and incline buttons that are set into the arm rests. Sole puts a lot of time into perfecting functionality and the Sole F85 folding treadmill shows it. You’ll get:

Sole F85 Console You’ll notice that the motor is more generous in the Sole F85. In fact, it’s one of the most powerful in the industry. It’s what makes this folding treadmill a workhorse that can withstand even the most grueling workouts with ease.

The console’s scrolling message board and one-touch keypads are a breeze to use. They also walk you through setting up programs and setting your heart rate with step-by-step instructions displayed on-screen.

The Buzz

Sole F85 Treadmill Folded This is the hands-down favorite of customers and professionals alike by Sole. The Sole F85 folding treadmill is the company’s #1 seller and it doesn’t look like this will change unless they come out with something completely stunning and new. The Sole F85’s popularity is due to the solid construction, durability, excellent warranty and extras. There are just enough perks with this folding model to make it worth its $2,000 price tag.

What We Say

This is a heavy, durable machine that out-performs many folding treadmills that cost substantially more. The fact that it folds up is an extra that is great, but frankly the Sole F85 would be worth its weight as a stationary machine. The motor is great, and the extra two inches of running deck length is just enough to push this model into the “serious training” category.

The Treadmill Doctor has referred to the Sole F85 folding treadmill as, “One of the best fold-ups on the planet.” We tend to agree.
