You mention that you miss a decline option for both the F85 and the F80 at the 7m 11s mark. The 2023 F85 should come with a 6% decline capability (and the video actually shows it in action during that section).
I was going to get a Nordictrak...but i really don't need ifit to keep motivated plus they have mixed reviews. Leaning towards a sole 85 now with higher incline and decline.
I'm 320 lbs, i want use this for walk/jog at an incline, going no faster than 4 to 6mph max. 45 minutes a day with another incline 45 min walk at the end of the day. Which would you recommend me?
7:20 "I wish they included a decline option" Are you sure that your sole F85 doesn't have decline? Everything I've read about it suggests that it does offer 6 degree decline -- though I'm not sure if that's only for the refreshed 2023 model of F85? It does look like the F85 you're reviewing has a servo motor in the rear for decline.
Great review. I am deciding between Sole F85 and Spirit xt685. I am building my Gym at this time and also trying to decide on flooring. Do you have any recommendations?
Just ordered my 71 yo father an F80 to replace his 12 year old Nordictrack 3500R ... Was around $2200 after shipping and tax. Was very tempted to go with an Assault Runner manual treadmill, mainly for longevity - but concerned that it might pose more risk to fall or injury for elderly users.
I'm confused, you said you wish the the f85 had a decline function while your showing a video of the f85 in the decline position. BTW the f85 does have decline.
The timing is great, I have been watching all of your videos this morning to help me decide what treadmill to buy and this video came out. Will the f85 be able to mirror my Peloton app? Or for that matter do you know of any treadmill that I can mirror my phone onto the screen for that purpose?
So much poor information in this video. In addition, there is no valid link for any referral for purchase. Please try and update the video and description.

Excellent and informative review! Thank you!
Thank you for the review. In this price change which would you go with? I’m a bjg dude at 250 pounds and enjoy walking and running.
f85 is more stable and has higher capacity
Not to nitpick, but you say there is a $300 difference, but iti is $500 difference. :)

This was a frustrating review because it focused more on style than substance. There are so many inaccuracies in the review that I can't trust it.

Yes, I purchased the F85 treadmill 2 months ago and have been using the mirroring feature to access my peloton app. Love it!
Do you have to buy a subscription with either
no, you can, but they both work great and have some of their own programming that isn't apart of the subscription. - Linds
