Thanks! Pretty persuasive toward the NordicTrack and the current price difference would pay for several months of iFit. Do you know yet if there's any benefit to the new F89 over the F85 aside from screen size?
Thanks for watching! So far the biggest difference is the screen size, other than that, from we've been able to tell, it's pretty much the same treadmill as the TT8, just foldable and a larger screen. Let us know if you have any other questions there! We also wrote up our initial thoughts on the F89 if you want to check it out. www.treadmillreviewguru.com/sole-f89-treadmill-review/
The incline at 0% (according to the treadmill) for the F85 is really at 1-2%. I recently returned a Sole F85 because of this issue. The NordicTrack treadmills are flat when set to 0%. Do you ever measure or report this parameter for treadmills you review? That is, what is the actual incline when the treadmill says it is 0%?
No, the rear feet are fixed and not adjustable. I finally heard back from Sole and they said that their treadmills have a 1% incline when the machine says 0% to help the motor. I measured the one I had at 2% and it was noticeable when running.
NordicTrack is just not reliable, to many cheap parts, and warranty along with customer service is a nightmare. Better off donating your 3k than buying a NordicTrack.
