Not Even Close To Commercial Grade

I've had this for about 3 months now and I've put just over 300 miles on it. My review is based on using this machine in a very simple manner: I don't use any media or programming options - I just hit start and control everything manually. Pros: - Solid and stable feel - No need to lube the belt. I had all sorts of maintenance issues with my prior treadmill, a Sole F85 - Has decline mode Cons: - The touchscreen! They outfitted this model with a standard consumer-grade touchscreen. When I work out, I sweat -- and standard consumer-grade touchscreens can't handle sweat. One drop of sweat on the screen in the wrong place and it starts going crazy. This is a massive flaw especially in a machine billing itself as "light commercial." I "fixed" this issue by taping a piece of plastic bag over the screen. Which makes my new treadmill look just wonderful. I would purchase a properly fitted plastic cover if one were available... - The software. Seems stable enough, but has a lot of usability issues. Speed controls lock up every minute for about a second; on-screen speed controls are hidden under a weird menu; informational counters (e.g. pace, calories) that are configurable are not saved for next time; and so on. - The hood. The geometry is odd and you have to tread carefully to avoid hitting it. In addition, at least in my case the hood rattled at higher paces. I had to put some rubber shims between it and the frame in order to silence it. (Why didn't Sole spend an extra $0.05 per unit to ship it this way..? This is a "high end" treadmill, really?) - In decline mode, especially at higher paces, the machine started slowly rolling forward when it was bare on the floor (high density rubber gym tiling). I had to fix this by fixing the front wheels in place using a board. Why is there no wheel lock on this "high end" treadmill? - Support. I wrote to support about some of these issues and didn't receive a reply until I followed up six weeks later. Took another three days, after which I was told that there's nothing that can be done about any of this. Overall... I feel like the main actual treadmill bits are solid and will last a long time (with the possible exception of the speed and incline adjustments on the side; I'm concerned that they're not sweat-resistant and will die quickly, but we'll see). However, between all of the hacks I had to do and the fact that the software is kind of crappy, I'm not super happy with this purchase. I've stayed in several hotels since buying this machine, and have run on Precor, Lifetime Fitness, and other machines; these real commercial brands have much better and smoother user interfaces, more solid speed control hardware, and touchscreens that don't mind a few drops of sweat. So at the moment I probably recommend passing on the TT8.

Great Treadmill

My wife and I really enjoy our new TT8 treadmill. It feels very solid, quiet and smooth. It is easy to control. I don't know that I'll ever use the media features, but they seem to work well. I like the wireless charging pad for my phone as well. I can't make my existing Sole heart monitor connect, so I'll quit trying.

Good Tread, Terrible Tech

Tech needs serious work. App is a mess. You'd think you could just program a simple interval workout like 4 minutes on 1 minutes off. You cannot. The mobile app is also a slow mess. They have cheaper out on developers and the tablet that runs the machine must be ancient.

My Tt8 Purchase

This Sole TT8 is replacing my S77 purchased 8 years ago. This is our 4th Sole purchase. We have an elliptical, bike and now 2nd treadmill from Sole. There was over 7,000 miles on the S77 before we retired it. Any worn parts were replaced under warranty without issue. Customer service was prompt and easy to work with. But technology changes over 8 years and we felt it was time to upgrade. The TT8 is a beast. Heavy and solid. Consider where you plan on placing the treadmill before purchase. Large interactive screen, quiet motor, speed and elevation controls easy to reach make adjusting your run a breeze. Programmed routines are extensive. Far different from the S77. Wifi brings options for an abundance of classes, routines and streaming video selections. The multi user login and data capture makes personal goal details more visible. The ability to add favorite routines to the main screen is a big plus. After 88 days of ownership and 622 miles logged, I'm a happy Sole TT8 owner.
