Should You Go For Elliptical Trainer By Sole?

One of the most important features that tilts the scales in favor of a particular brand of an elliptical trainer is the warranty. The extent of the warranty speaks volumes as to the quality and the durability of the machine.

The elliptical trainer industry has a young and new competitor on the field, and that is Sole Fitness. They are defining their niche by offering one of the most extensive warranties available at any price range.This includes 5 year coverage on parts and electronics, and 2 year labor.

Why is the warranty so important when purchasing fitness equipment? .First, it reduces your liability if the machine breaks down. It’s very expensive to go for the services of a professional for replacing costly parts. Second, the warranty generally reflects the quality of the machine. And Sole exercising unit is backed up 100%.

Come to think of it; isn’t warranty an extension of simple business sense?. You don’t expect a manufacturer of an elliptical trainer to offer you an extensive coverage by way of warranty if the product has not been designed and manufactured to last for a long time, do you?. On the other hand, an equipment with an imperfect design or doubtful quality of components used for making it, can’t be warranted for long as the prohibitive cost of replacements would drive the company to near bankruptcy.  

Ever wondered why elliptical trainers with 90 days warranty are so cheap? . One definite reason is that the manufacturers are not too sure if the machine would work longer than that.

Besides offering an unordinary warranty, Sole Fitness produces high quality elliptical trainers. I had a chance to test ride the machine and was overwhelmed by its smooth elliptical motion and it remained almost noiseless even under enhanced resistance. Another feature I liked about it was the 20” stride it had to offer.Most ellipticals are built with a 16”-18” stride.  Working on machines with smaller strides limits your workout while the elliptical motion gets bouncy.For someone who is over 6’ the longer stride is a must, but even for people of average height the 20” stride feels natural and comfortable. Not to mention short stride of Proform ellipticals.

Further, their treadmills are being patronized by Hilton group for their in-room fitness equipment. Having been proven in a commercial environment, this is a statement on the durability of their machines. You are assured of getting the same quality in their elliptical trainers.
