I also bought (and love) a Sole treadmill at Dick's -- but it was the F63 model as that one came to about $700 when they had a sale. The fact you can use your iPods or whatever on most of these new treadmills is a great feature. I came very close to getting a Smooth, but after really considering it, I decided it's not a very good idea to buy something like that without trying it out. It's an exceptionally quiet machine, which to me, living in an apartment, means a lot.
The only problem is that none of the other treadmills I have had over the years had to be greased,and Sole does recommend doing this, I think after 3 months. Frankly, I have not done it yet, and wonder if other Sole owners are better than me when it comes to that?
Good luck, whatver you decide -- to me, it's one of the most wonderful investments anyone can make!
