The Sole F80 Treadmill is a 3.0 horsepower folding treadmill created by Sole in 2009.  While the treadmill does fold, it is also very stable, has the features and gadgets of a regular model and even provides cushioning to avoid any injury. A monitor keeps track of how fast you are going, for how long in minutes and distance, how many calories you have burned and how high you have set the incline, while easy-to-reach speed controls rest on the arms of the machine.

The instructions for assembly are very detailed; but the manual explaining the various features available on the actual treadmill is not. The assembly of the treadmill itself can be rather tricky as not all the pieces fit perfectly. However, if any big problems arise there is a lifetime warrant for the motor, deck and frame, and a five year warranty for electronics and wear items.
