Sole S73 Treadmill Review
 Sole S73 Treadmill - this is a non-folding exercise treadmill that has a 20" x 60 " running surface that is driven by a 3.0 HP continuous duty motor capable of driving the belt at speeds of up to 12 mph and inclines of up to 15 deg. of grade. The Sole S73 treadmill has a frame covered in an epoxy powder coated paint, baked to appliance finish durability. This finish protects the all-steel construction, along with welded steel, frames that are indestructible and have a lifetime warranty. The industrial quality motor is fitted with a large diameter, all-steel zinc coated balanced flywheel for a vibration-free secure running/walking surface. The flywheel allows the motor to run cooler with less electricity and also make the motor last longer. This also allows for a start speed of 0.1mph or 1/10 of 1mph. that is exceptionally slow and gives very smooth start to your fitness workout. The Sole S73 uses the highest quality rollers that are usually found only on $5000 exercise treadmills. These are 2.75 inch rollers with a sealed bearing design and copper ground wires that reduce static. Larger rollers result in a larger contact surface against the belt and thus prolong the life of both roller and belt.. This makes for smooth, quiet, and static free motion. The Whisper Deck on the S73 is superior to any other on the market. Most deck have a Phenolic coating to make them smooth, quiet and durable. Other treadmill manufacturers fit Whisper decks but this deck is exceptionally smooth and quiet and so durable that Sole offer a lifetime warranty on it. If it wears out Sole will replace it for free. The Sole S73 uses a double woven 2-ply belts with four layers. Two rubber layers over a middle PVC layer with a nylon backing that rolls over the deck and rollers. The rubber provides the durability, the PVC stops the belt from over-stretching and the nylon provides a smooth static free surface to glide over the deck and rollers. The Sole S73 has the stability and durability of all Sole Treadmills, and includes the proprietary Cushion Flex Decks. This unique system offers stability for the user while providing minimal stress to hips, knees ankles and spine during your fitness workout. The Cushion Flex system has been recognized by a leading university researching fitness equipment as the industry’s best, providing a 365% lower impact than walking or running on asphalt. Sole does this without compromising the stable, safe feel of the treadmill. The S73 features 6, easy-to-follow pre-programmed workouts with two customizable fitness workout programs.
