How long will the Sole TT8 last?
The Sole TT8 is the perfect treadmill for semi-serious runners. It has great options and features in a home model, but at half the price of commercial units. The warranty on this machine is generous as with most Sole models. Sole treadmills are built to last, and they come with generous warranties that will serve you well if anything happens go wrong with your purchase. The powder-coated and steel, welded frame is durable, while the inclines offer stability on rougher workouts. With an impressive build quality that comes at low cost at an affordable price, it's hard not find a reason not to purchase this treadmill.
Brief Overview
The Sole TT8 is a sturdy, high-quality treadmill without a foldable design. If you live in an apartment or have a limited amount of dedicated workout space this treadmill might not be for you. On a side note, the TT8 treadmill is named for its 22-inch (twenty-two) wide tread track. The extra width on this 60-inch-long track makes it easier to cover longer distances and work up a sweat without having to constantly focus on your precise position on the treadmill. Along with the wide belt, the Sole also features simulated downhill (6 levels of decline) running in addition to the uphill support found across all their products as well – helping you feel like you are really tackling hills with the 15 levels of incline.
Overall Quality
Sole's TT8 is perfect for home or light commercial use offering many exciting features. From multiple incline and decline levels on a cushioned whisper deck to its high-grade steel frame that includes a lifetime warranty, Sole's TT8 just might be the treadmill for moderate to serious runners. With a powerful motor including 4.0 continuous horsepower, Sole's treadmill line offers the perfect amount of power to ensure you get up and running quickly, while maintaining safety with 12 mph max speed on its Whisper Deck System that reduces strain and impact on the joints by 40%.
The heavy-duty steel frame is one of the most durable on the market, so customers can enjoy their treadmill for years to come. With a 400 lb weight capacity, this frame will safely accommodate almost any user. Sole's TT8 also comes with some great features, including Bluetooth speakers to stream music from your devices on the console and USB ports to charge phones or other smart devices. The Sole TT8 also comes with a built-in tablet holder so you have the freedom to use your devices during your workout. It's also simple to work in mid-workout adjustment with the TT8; the built-in side controls on the handrails make changing settings during your workout that much easier.
