The Sole F63 and Horizon 7.0 AT Treadmills have a lot in common. Not only are they around the same price, but they have a lot of the same specs and features.
They both have 3.0 HP motors, folding decks, simple consoles with LCD screens, and 20” x 60” decks. They’re also both pretty quiet and what we consider to be appropriate for most homes are far as noise.
The F63 and 7.0 AT handle up to 325 lbs of user weight. They are also the same size and almost the same weight with the 7.0 weighing 277 lbs and the F63 weighing 267 lbs. So, they both will take up the same amount of room in your home.
Their differences are really in how they perform and function. As far as cushioning, the Horizon 7.0 AT has a more forgiving deck cushioning than the Sole F63. If you have joint sensitivity, you might want to keep this in mind. The F63 feels firmer underfoot to run on, so if you’re an outdoor runner this is great.
The 7.0 AT has a fast-adjusting motor so it adjusts the speed and incline levels pretty quickly, making it great for interval training.
As far as our recommendation, we like both of these treadmills and they’re both on our best treadmills list. If you want softer cushioning and love to do interval training, go with the Horizon 7.0 AT. For most people though, we recommend the Sole F63. This treadmill has excellent build quality and is very durable and easy to use.

Great video! I currently use a treadmill 2-3x a week at my college, but would love to have one in my garage gym as well. Definitely considering both of these options.

[@ProTechEpoxyFloors]

Went to Dick’s today where they have both side by side. They are both awesome machines, it was a difficult choice. While I preferred the controls of the Horizon ($799) I found the deck of Sole ($999) to be more comfortable. My wife and I share the machine. We both only walk and jog, but hope a runner’s machine may give us better durability? On the whole I found the Sole slightly more solid but that is not to say the Horizon is shoddy in any way. I did choose the Sole. I did opt for their delivery and assembly ($160). I did this because if there are any damage or defects it is on them to get you a new machine (I’ve read all the online horror stories about defective equipment and hassle of getting it fixed). I also added 4 years onsite additional warranty ($219).

I just got the horizon 7.8, im about 329 pounds and this thing holds up well to the pressure i put on it when i do my dsily stomping, oppo i meant walking

[@ImApringle]

just bought the horizon. very impressed. It was the quick response to incline and speed changes that tipped it in favor

[@TreadmillReviewGuru]

Those quick adjustments really do make a difference 👌 thanks for sharing your insight!

[@m3driver245]

How fast would you say the adjustments are? We just bought one and it seems to take forever…about 8-10 seconds from adjustment to the motor reacting. I reached out to horizon but haven’t heard back yet.

[@ImApringle]

@@m3driver245 I mean it’s not instant but it is noticeably faster then the sole f63 which I compared side by side with this one. Also noticeably faster then my old semi commercial treadmill. If you changing the speed and the motor does nothing for 8-10sec then adjusts there is probably something wrong. I checked mine from a speed of 0.8 km/h to 10 km/h it took about 8 -10 seconds. That’s faster then my old treadmill and definitely feels faster then the sole f63. There was no delay from when I pushed 10km/h on the console for the motor to start speeding up

[@JSimon-or4ve]

I noticed this as well, on sole you wonder if it was changing or not. The change in incline is pretty fast on the Horizon when I tried them side by side. The Sole does eventually get you there. it takes more time.

[@m3driver245]

@@ImApringle I opened up a ticket with them about the issue. Turns out the communication cable was damaged and once it was replaced the treadmill has been wonderful.

[@ikamy]

What is this high pitched sound from F63 ? annoying unless you use a headphone or something. Also it's very shaky

[@larryfloyd5111]

The Horizon is quieter judging by this video.

[@JSimon-or4ve]

I think the machine seems louder, but the running (foot steps) sounds louder on the Horizon. So when you're actually running on them, the Horizon will sound louder overall. This is when I ran on them side by side at Dicks, I found the Sole more sturdy. I'll need to try one more time though to be sure.

[@MABardowell]

The horizon is quieter because it has three pads. The Sole is like running outside for runners who like that feel of the ground.

[@alenegreen3116]

I have arthritis in my knee so I am looking for something soft on the joints. I walked on a Sole 80 and it was really hard. Do you think the Horizon 7.8 is softer than the Sole? Anyone feel free to answer… I can’t find any in stock to try out.

[@LuvLuke954]

I am seriously considering the Sole and that is mainly bc of the durability as well as the customer service is supposed to be better than most - but I will have to recheck the horizon cs reviews. That being said, this video shows the Sole is really bouncing while the Horizon seems to be more stable - though it is supposed to be more shock-absorbing. So I am a little curious as to which is better based on the demos. The more bouncy/more like concrete (Sole?) or the softer yet more sturdy-seeming Horizon?

[@reactionsok]

What did you end up getting?

[@alltheusernameswastaken8936]

You said the console of the Horizon shakes a bit, but looking at the video the Horizon 8:27 does not move when compared to the amount the Sole 7:55 shakes. Were you referring to sideways motion of the console? ..I have not run on a treadmill yet, Im choosing between these two of my 1st purchase. ..

[@DAjugRnaut]

does the sole come with feet levelers both on the front and back of the treadmill? i see the horizon comes with feet levelers on the front.

[@davidliming9419]

It looks like the console the F63 is "shaking" a lot harder than the Horizon! I find it interesting you said it felt the Horizon "console" was shaking more. The video certainly doesn't show it.

[@steveareeno65]

That's what I was thinking too. The horizon looks quite a bit more stable

[@davidliming9419]

good prices right now on the horizon too, I ust ordered one at $899.@@steveareeno65

[@jlmm4435]

Does anyone Purchase either one of these? Do they shake?

[@davidliming9419]

@@jlmm4435 I bought the horizon 7.0 AT. I only use it for waling, not running, but it seems very stable to me.

[@larrysfbb6231]

No comment on the easy change controls on the Horizon?

[@JSimon-or4ve]

I found the controls to be easier to change on the Horizon as they have those vertical handles for easy changing. It's definitely more convenient, but it does takes away from the space in front of you.

[@tranquil87]

You should listen properly.

[@billwill1337]

sole > horizon

[@fvvfvbbbb]

Why?

[@billwill1337]

better quality@@fvvfvbbbb

[@OaklandR1]

You say this, but in all the purchase reviews I've been reading the Sole has way more issues. I was set on the Sole, but undecided now.
