| Max speed | 0.8 - 19 km/h (up to 12 MPH) |

If you run daily and want a machine that keeps pace with serious training, the Sole F85 pairs a 4.0 CHP motor with a 152.4 cm running deck and a 170 kg user rating. Speed climbs to 19 km/h with 15 incline levels and 6 decline levels, so hill repeats and sprint intervals both stay on the menu.
It suits a household that wants a full-featured runner: the 15.6 inch HD touchscreen streams video and syncs your training apps, while integrated Bluetooth speakers and wireless charging keep your phone topped up mid-session. The CushionFlex deck softens each footstrike, which you notice most in the last 15 minutes of a long run.
What sells this one for me is the 4.0 CHP motor paired with a 152 cm belt: that combination lets a genuine runner open up to 19 km/h without the deck feeling short or the motor labouring.
At 133 kg it isn't built for shuffling between rooms, so pick its spot first. The 15 incline and 6 decline levels are the standout, giving you hill work most home decks can't.

The 4.0 CHP continuous-duty motor handles daily running without straining, so the belt speed stays steady even during long sessions.
This is the kind of motor headroom a serious runner needs when the machine gets used every day.
What this means for you: For a household that runs daily, this motor will hold its pace for years.
The 152.4 cm long, 55.9 cm wide belt gives runners room for a full stride without clipping the front motor cover.
Taller runners and those who open up at speed get the length they need here.
What this means for you: If you're over 180 cm or run fast, the extra belt length matters more than any other spec.
The CushionFlex deck absorbs footstrike impact, which reduces joint impact by up to 40% according to Sole Fitness.
In practice, your knees and hips feel the difference on longer runs.
What this means for you: Softer footstrike helps you run longer before your joints ask you to stop.
The powered incline and decline range runs from -6% to 15%, so you can simulate hill climbs and downhill sections without leaving home.
Decline is rare at this level and lets you train the muscles a flat belt never touches.
What this means for you: Adding incline burns more energy at the same speed, so you get more from a shorter session.
The 15.6 inch HD touchscreen puts your metrics, programs and streaming in one place, so you're not squinting at a small monochrome readout.
The size makes on-screen content easy to follow mid-run.
What this means for you: A screen this size keeps you on the belt longer because there's something worth watching.
WiFi and Bluetooth let you sync your runs to fitness apps and stream audio to the built-in speakers without cables.
The console pairs with Sole+, Fitbit, MapMyRun and Apple Health, so your data lands where you already track it.
What this means for you: Your session logs itself to the app you already use, so nothing gets lost between workouts.
Integrated Bluetooth speakers, wireless device charging and dual water bottle holders keep everything you need within reach.
A phone and tablet holder means your device stays put and charged while you run.
What this means for you: Fewer reasons to step off the belt mid-session means you actually finish the run.
The commercial-grade steel Z-frame handles the 170 kg max user weight and stays stable at running speeds.
Soft drop folding with a release lever lets you fold it up and reclaim floor space when you're done.
What this means for you: A frame this solid doesn't shift under a fast runner, and it folds away when the room needs to do double duty.
Sole backs the F85 with a lifetime warranty on the frame and motor, the two parts that decide how long the machine lasts.
A safety tether key stops the belt instantly if you lose your footing.
What this means for you: Lifetime cover on the frame and motor tells you Sole expects this to outlast your interest in running. If it isn't right, the 100-day money-back guarantee has you covered.

Effort: a one-person job, see manual for a first build.
It ships freight as a single boxed unit, and it's a big one: the packaging is 218.4 cm long and 147 kg gross. You'll get live tracking so you know when it's arriving. The driver delivers to your door or ground-floor entry, not up stairs, so have a clear path ready and someone on hand to help move the box inside.
Take photos before you unpack and email them to support@cardioonline.com.au within 48 hours of delivery. We lodge the freight claim, organise replacement parts or a full unit, and stay across it until you're running. You don't chase the courier or the manufacturer yourself, that's our job to sort out.
It's a one-person job, though a second pair of hands makes moving the 133.4 kg frame easier. Follow the manual for a first build and set aside a bit of time, since the console, uprights and deck all need bolting together. Have the box in its final room before you start, because it's far simpler to build in place than to shift once assembled.
You get a lifetime warranty on the frame and motor, three years on the deck, parts and wear items, and one year on labour. All of it is handled locally by us, not routed to an overseas manufacturer. A lifetime motor warranty tells you the brand expects that 4.0 CHP motor to outlast your interest in running.
Assembled, it's 209.6 cm long, 96.5 cm wide and 167.6 cm tall, so a standard 2.4 m ceiling is no issue. Folded with the soft drop system it shrinks to 114.3 cm long, though it rises to 181.6 cm high. Give yourself clearance behind the deck for your stride, plus room to step off safely at speed.
It suits daily runners and shared households, with a 170 kg max user weight and a commercial-grade steel Z-frame under it. The 55.9 cm by 152.4 cm belt gives runners genuine room to stride out. If you run five-plus days a week and want a machine that won't flinch, this is the one I'd point you to.
You get 15 incline levels plus 6 decline levels, spanning -6% to 15%. The decline is the interesting part, most home treadmills skip it entirely. Running slightly downhill recruits different muscles and mimics real terrain, so if you train for outdoor courses or trail events, that decline range genuinely earns its keep here.
No. The 15.6 inch HD touchscreen runs all 10 preset and 12 user-defined programs on its own. Netflix, YouTube and Spotify come preloaded, and you can screen-mirror or sync apps like Sole+, Fitbit and Apple Health over WiFi and Bluetooth if you want. The app pairing is a bonus, not a requirement, to get a full workout.
