Product Description
Sole F63 Treadmill , Nautilus U514 Upright Exercise Bike , Phoenix 98623 Revoluti Cycle Pro Ii Exercise Bike , Fitdesk X Compact Pedal Desk , Schwinn A10 Upright Exercise Bike , Named a "best buy" from a leading consumer magazine two years in a row, the entry-level Sole F63 treadmill is loaded with features typically found in more expensive machines. All Sole treadmills are outfitted with powder-coated, all-steel welded frames and heavy-duty, stable inclines. The F63 also includes an ultra-reliable 2.5-horsepower continuous-duty motor and all-steel zinc-coated balanced flywheel, creating a secure, quiet, vibration-free running/walking surface. The flywheel is much heavier than most other brands, giving runners the fluid motion they're accustomed to at the gym. To accommodate runners with balky joints, Sole added a low-impact, 1-inch phenolic deck. The deck's shock-absorbing design greatly reduces the impact to your feet, ankles, knees, hips, and spine, making it comfortable for frequent runners or for users with running- and walking-related injuries.
The F63's console includes a vibrant 6.5-inch LCD display and an integrated sound system. The F63 makes it easy to track your workout progress via the vibrant 6.5-inch LCD display, which includes windows for speed, incline, time, distance traveled, calories, pulse, and pace. The console also sports a 1/4-mile track and a peak-and-valley graph for different programs, along with an integrated sound system for listening to your iPod or MP3 player (the system includes built-in speakers and a sound cord that plugs into your player's headphone jack). Perhaps the handiest feature is the integrated message window, which offers scrolling messages that walk you through the treadmill's features or the workout itself. The message window will also recap your entire routine after you're finished, so you can see your progress from workout to workout. The F63 comes complete with six automatic programs--including cardio training and fat burning options--and two customizable programs, so you can challenge yourself with multiple routines. Or you can opt to control the speed and incline manually. The speed range is adjustable from 1 to 10 miles per hour and the incline varies between 0 and 15 percent.
And to reduce space, the F63 boasts an Easy Assist folding deck design. This unique feature allows you to release the deck, step back, and watch the deck unfold itself. When you're done with your workout, simply fold it back up and store it out of the way. Other features include a 20-by-55-inch running deck, a large stop switch, cooling fans, armrest speed and incline controls, and a low-profile running hood that doesn't get in the way of your running gait.

This review is from: Sole F63 Treadmill (2011 Model) (Sports)
I have had this treadmill about a week. Firstly it weighs a lot - 253 lbs. The delivery guys brought it into my front door. I then had to hire a couple of strong guys to take it upstairs to my home gym for me. It was packed really well and fairly easy to assemble. You will need a second person to help you attach the console.
I did tons of research. I looked at the $500-600 treads and after research saw they are made from cheap parts and have a limited life span, if you do more than walk. I decided to increase my budget to $1000. My decision then came down to this Sole F63, the Smooth 5.65 and the Livestrong L8.0T. They all pretty much had the same specs. I went with one this because of the 1/4 mile track display. I like this watching my progress around the track.
The tread is relatively quiet, although it is on a second floor. You can hear a definite thud on the floor below, even with a tread mat.
There are only a few minor negatives for me... firstly the fan is basically useless. If you run back a little on the belt, you can't feel a thing. Also I wish it had the option to hook up a wireless heart rate monitor. The handles don't really work as you have to hold them for 1-2 minutes for the rate to go up to the correct level. But this is certainly not a deal breaker for me.
If you are setting up a home gym, I also highly recommend the Concept 2 rower. Just see the reviews and you will see why. It rocks!
