Warranty clause forms one of the few very important aspects of buying an elliptical trainer. The scope of warranty offered by a manufacturer goes a long way in helping one to assess the durability and quality of an equipment.

Sole Fitness, is a relatively new entrant in the field of elliptical trainer industry. They are out to position their product by providing one of the most widespread warranties ever offered by a competitor. It provides a cover of 5years on parts and electronics and 2 years on labor, excluding the E25.

But, what’s so great about warranty when considering the purchase of fitness equipment? . First of all it reduces your liability if the machine breaks down for any reason.Replacing parts and hiring someone to service your elliptical trainer can be very costly. Second, you can’t ignore the fact that warranty certainly speaks volumes about the quality of equipment. 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.  

Could you imagine the reasons for offering just 90 days of warranty by the producers of cheaper elliptical trainers?. It’s because the manufacturers do not have much faith the machine will last much longer than that.

It’s not only a fabulous warranty offer, Sole Fitness manufactures elliptical trainers of very superior quality. In a recent test I very impressed with the smooth elliptical motion, and how quiet it was, even when I cranked up the resistance.I also liked the 20” stride.Most ellipticals are built with a 16”-18” stride.  Working on machines with smaller strides limits your workout while the elliptical motion gets bouncy. The longer stride is certainly needed for taller people measuring about six feet or above but even those with average height will remain comfortable with a stride of 20 inches. Not to mention short stride of Proform workout equipment.

In addition, their treadmills are used by the Hilton chain for in-room fitness. Now that reflects on the quality of the equipment! . You are assured of getting the same quality in their elliptical trainers.
