Compact, Sturdy & Quiet, Excellent Walking Pad
I hunted for about 3 months to find the ideal walking pad for my son. His room isn't huge so I needed something compact, and it had to be easy to move around and very durable. This one hit all the right points on paper, so I ordered it. It was on sale when I grabbed it, I think there was $50 off the MSRP, something in that ballpark. Going from an enormous treadmill to this has been glorious. What I like: Size: It's very compact yet still very sturdy. If you are extremely tall or you take very long strides, the length might be an issue for you, but you would need to be taking exaggerated strides for sure. My son is 5'11" and is having no problems with the length or the width of the walking/jogging area. Functionality: Ideal for the purpose. The remote control works perfectly (so far) and the digital display on the pad is bright and easy to read. I did buy a pad for underneath the machine because it's being used on carpet and the pad will help the motor not overheat. It also comes with an accompanying app but he hasn't used that yet so I can't comment on how good (or not) it is. Noise: Quiet, basically. I don't know how loud other models are, but this one is very smooth and when I close my son's door, I can't hear it at all. Moving/storage: It has wheels and it's been easy to move around and/or stand against a wall if we need to. Value for money: In my opinion, excellent. I read reviews for models that were selling for considerably more than this one, and based on those, this one is by far the best choice in the price range I was looking at ($100-$200). Drawbacks: None so far. It's working exactly as promised. I have read that walking pads in general can act up after a few months of consistent use. If that happens, I'll update my review. In the meantime though, it's awesome. Read more
