[quote=Anonymous]I researched this a few months ago and went with the Sole E55. I would have gone with the E85 but wanted the shorter footprint for the smallish room we needed to put it in.

I've used it several times per week since getting it in January and have been quite happy with it. The machine is solid and I feel the workout is similar to the Precor and Life Fitness machines I am used to from all my years of going to a gym. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles related to entertainment (screen is not like a TV or able to stream anything or give me pretty hiking workouts, but the machine feels good and I'm happy with the workout options. I would recommend it and buy it again.

One tip if you do but a Sole: the price was the same on their website and at places like Dick's and Amazon, but the delivery & assembly fee was much lower through the company compared to paying for it to be put together through one of the 3rd party sellers. The guy who came to set it up told me that he does the set up for most retailers, so it's not like I got any different service for the lower cost to me. I would definely pay for assembly again as he clearly knew what he was doing but it still took him 1+ hours. He said the ellipiticals are the worst to put together.

The only other machine that he recommended (and said is a really easy assembly and a very small footprint) is the Bowflex Max Trainer. I had researched it but felt that it might feel more like a stair master than an elliptical (which I did not want). [/quote]
