Product Description The Sole E35 elliptical offers smooth, natural motion with a whisper-quiet ECB drive system and 16 levels of resistance. It has convenient handlebar adjustments for resistance and incline, and articulating foot pedals that feature an inward slope to help reduce ankle and knee stress. The blue backlit LCD display allows you to keep track of your progress.
Amazon.com Product Description Enjoy an efficient full-body workout without heading to the gym with the Sole E35 elliptical trainer. Boasting a heavy 30-pound flywheel, a high gear ratio not found on most comparable models, and a pair of upper body handles, the E35 delivers an extremely smooth workout with plenty of top-end resistance. Users will also appreciate the unique oversize foot pedals, which were designed in collaboration with a leading physical therapist and sports enthusiast. The pedals are not only extra large, but also feature a 2-degree inward slope that reduces the ankle and knee stress that's common in other elliptical machines. And thanks to the stationary handle bars with built-in pulse sensors, it's a breeze to monitor your heart rate as you exercise (a chest strap is also included for highly accurate wireless monitoring). Workout specifics include 16 resistance levels, ten total programs (including one custom program), and a 20-inch stride length. Perhaps the handiest feature from a user perspective, however, is the easy-to-use electronic console, which integrates a blue backlit LCD display, a cooling fan, and a water bottle holder. The E35, which offers a maximum weight capacity of 350 pounds, carries the following warranties: lifetime on the frame and brakes, five years on all parts and electronics, and two years on the labor.

Manufacturer's Warranty frame and brakes - lifetime, parts / electronics - 5 years, labor: 2 years About Sole Sole brings over twenty years of treadmill and fitness product design and manufacturing to the table in their line of innovative equipment designed for fitness-conscious people. The company's treadmill line is simple in design, with an emphasis on quality and warranty all at a great price. Sole's easy-to-use treadmills offer a great value and feature a convenient, space-saving portable design. The treadmills have a very stable base with four wheels for ease of movement, folding decks to conserve space, and a 30-year motor and lifetime deck and frame warranty. Sole is always looking for ways to make their equipment better, more efficient, with higher quality at a great price. About Elliptical Trainers Elliptical trainers represent the next wave of advancement in low-impact cardiovascular exercise machines and continue to grow in popularity. By simulating motions experienced through walking, stepping, cycling, and skiing, elliptical machines allow for a smooth and fluid motion while building strength in the arms and legs. Similar to the exercise position for treadmills, elliptical trainers are used by standing in an upright position while holding the handrails of the machine. With elliptical trainers, however, your feet remain in the foot pedals throughout the exercise regimen and circulate in a smooth and seamless motion, resulting in little to no impact on the knees, back, and hips. Elliptical trainers are compatible for all ages and fitness levels and allow you to select the difficulty level through the incline and intensity settings. Additionally, elliptical trainers allow you to determine the complexity of your workout based on your needs, all while listening to music, watching television, or reading a magazine while exercising in the comfort and safety of your own home. Although different types of elliptical trainers offer an assortment of features, many of them include an array of challenging programs, forward and reverse directional movement, EKG grip pulse handles, a lightweight portable design with easy fold-up capability, and a monitor displaying calories burned, distance, speed, time, and heart rate. Other types of exercise machines, namely treadmills and bikes, offer excellent cardiovascular exercise and muscular training for the legs in a forward-motion exercise. Elliptical trainers take this to the next level by offering an upper and lower body workout with dual motion, challenging and diverse programs, and a low-impact exercise machine that won't strain sensitive joints.

quiet, well engineered, dependable March 3, 2010 Art Yerkes 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The good:
- The instructions for assembly are excellent. It comes with a small blister pack with nuts, bolts and washers divided up by assembly step.
- It really is quiet like they claim. I can watch TV easily while running a couple of miles on it, without bugging anyone else.
- The display device it comes with provides good pulse feedback, and has a decent choice of builtin programs.
- The resistance and incline controls change smoothly.
- The manual says that tightening every bolt thoroughly is important. It's quite true.
- Just assembling it gives you the feeling of good engineering. Although its footprint isn't as big as one might expect, it's very stable, even during an intense workout.
- The wheels in the front are quite helpful.
The somewhat less good:
- It'd be really really neat if. instead of the audio pass through, it had a USB hub.
- If it squeaks at first, you might have missed the lowest of the four bolts that holds in the mast part, which came already inserted under the flywheel housing. It can be easy to miss.

Sole E35 Elliptical Trainer
This is an outstanding machine, and the company is very good in responding to your phone calls, and not getting the run around: When delivered, the inside guard was broken, I had called the company and they are going to ship the part ASAP. I have work out for thirty minutes for two days in a row. Outstanding smoothness, What a great machine for the price, Less see if it holds up for six day's thirty minute workout.
Amazon, you are the best on line shopping store. For having such bad weather this machine and all my other orders came to my home within a good time frame, Thank you for being the best
Sole E35 - Broken on Arrival February 10, 2010 Boston (Boston) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Product was shipped promptly. Assembly was not too difficult
Big Problem - The ramp does not work at all.
Sole has been responsive towards fixing the problem (still not fixed by the way going on week 4), but what a let down to receive something and not have it work correctly....I guess you get what you pay for.
Excellent elliptical for the home February 7, 2010 Michael I. Wirth 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is an excellent elliptical for the home; smoother and with more features than the gyms I used to work-out at. A bit pricey for the home but well worth it. Incredibly smooth and silent has easy hand controls for the level and the incline for your workout. A bit of a process to put together but the instructions are fairly easy to follow.
Great Value! February 5, 2010 Jess (New Jersey) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
After reading some of the reviews, I was a little hesitant to purchase this product, based on concerns about customer service. But I ended up taking a chance based on the positive reviews, as I tend to put more credence in a review when someone has taken the time to point out the good in something! And I'm glad I did. I absolutely love this machine. It was a great price and is a solid piece of equipment. And more importantly, it allows me to get a great, convenient workout. The instruction manual is a little daunting and could probably use some attention by a Technical Writer (being one, I was half tempted to rewrite it and send it back to them!). However, it wasn't really that difficult to put together, it just takes time. As someone else said, the suggested time is 35 minutes and this is highly optimistic. It took me close to three hours. But this wasn't b/c it was difficult, it is just tedious.
Once I got the machine together and turned it on, I did run into some trouble in that it wouldn't calibrate and just kept beeping at me. When I called customer service they were very polite and professional. They said a technician would call me back within 24 hours. And they followed up with an e-mail giving me the technician's name and direct phone number. The technician called back within an hour and gave me a suggested fix. Unfortunately, this didn't work so I had to take the machine apart to check the computer cable. The technician was great in helping me find and fix the source of the problem, and he did everything he said he would in the timeframe to which he committed.
As far as using the machine goes, I love it. It is very quiet, which is great since I use it in the morning. And you can really vary your workouts to keep things interesting. I am pretty tall, 5'10", so the 20" stride is great for me. As far as mid-range elliptical machines go, I would recommend this to anyone!
Update 2/22/2010 - I've been using my Sole E35 for four weeks, six times a week for between 30 and 40 minutes a day, and I absolutely love it. One thing that surprised me is the great arm work out I get on this machine. I used to use the Precor machines at the gym and never felt anything in my arms. But, on the E35, each time I switch to a higher level (I'm currently at level 10)I feel the work out in my arms for a day or two. Great machine and great value.
