Appalling 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.

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.

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…

On 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.

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.
