A Review of the Sole S73 Treadmill

The S73 is very similar to the folding version, the F83. You still get the same build quality and many of the same features, but you get it for a little cheaper. If you’re looking to save money rather than space, this is a viable alternative to the folding model. In addition, you get a more stable feel to the non-folding treadmills since there are fewer moving parts to wobble around when you run. Contributing to that solid feel is the weight of the treadmills itself. At a hefty 250 pounds, it is extremely stable even when you get moving pretty quick.

You still get the 2.75 inch rollers you would expect on a treadmill twice as expensive and you get a good-sized running belt at 58 inches. You also get the powerful 3 horsepower motor, more than enough to keep most runners happy. Unless you are really looking for the extra size and power of the S77, this treadmill is a very budget-friendly model that will suit most people. The value continues with the warranty. The warranty from Sole is always above average and it is no different with the S73. You get a lifetime warranty on the motor and frame and 5 year parts warranty backed up by a 2 year labor warranty.

The Sole S73 still has some very tough competition, but interestingly enough it comes from Sole as well. All treadmills fall into a certain niche, but with Sole that niche is very small. While it is easy to recommend this model for a well-built and solid treadmill, there are other great models with very similar prices to the S73.

You should definitely make sure to do your homework and get the model that is best for you before you spend your money. But if you do end up with an S73, you will have a reliable machine that will offer you years of great running.
