The F80's console includes a vibrant 7.5-inch LCD display and an integrated sound system.

The Sole F80 Treadmill makes it easy to see your workout progress via the vibrant 7.5-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 revved 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 trendiest feature is the integrated message board, which offers scrolling messages that walk you through the treadmill's features or the workout itself. The message board will also go through your entire routine after you're finished, so you can see your progress from workout to workout. It comes complete with two heart-rate-controlled workout options, so you can customize the workout specifically to your needs. Throughout your HR workout, the treadmill will display a heart rate zone graph on the console while adjusting the incline to keep you in your target zone (the treadmill includes a wireless chest strap that touts a 99.9 percent accuracy rating). The remainder of the time, you can challenge yourself with the six automatic programs or two customizable programs.

And to reduce space, this treadmill boasts an Easy Assist folding deck design. This time and space saving feature allows you to release the deck, step back, and watch the deck unfold itself. When you're done with your exercising, simply fold it back up and store it out of the way. Other features include cooling fans, a large stop switch, armrest speed and incline controls, a 20-by-60-inch running bet, and a low-profile running hood.

The Sole F80 treadmill has earned a reputation as one of the highest-quality treadmills in its price range, with an unbeatable variety of high-quality components and is easy to use. It's better than ever in (2011) adding a longer deck, a better display, and a fresh new look. The changes make the treadmill a great choice for average to athletic runners who don't want to spend several thousands of dollars but still want a powerful, sturdy machine. It is outfitted with powder-coated, all-steel welded frames and heavy-duty, stable inclines. It also includes an gym-quality 3.0-horsepower continuous-duty motor and all-steel zinc-coated balanced flywheel, creating a secure, quiet, vibration-free running/walking surface. The flywheel is much tougher than most other brands, giving runners the fluid motion they're accustomed to at the gym. To accommodate runners with balky joints, Sole added its low-impact, whisper-quiet Cushion Flex deck. The Cushion Flex system greatly reduces the impact to your feet, ankles, knees, hips, and spine, making it comfortable for experienced runners or for users with running- and walking-related injuries. In a recent study, researchers concluded that the Cushion Flex deck reduced impact up to 40 percent as compared to running on asphalt.

The treadmill's Easy Assist folding deck helps save space in crowded homes.
