This seems like a fairly typical sale price for these. I wish I caught the Walmart one for $40 a few weeks ago, I'm planning to wait for a similar price.
I have a LifeSpan under desk treadmill (over 5x the price). While I'm curious on how these compare I can say:
- If you plan to use these under desk you don't want a handle.
- The max speed on this is 3.1, personally I walk at 3.4 usually, so figure out what speed you want to walk at before buying.
- These get quite warm (or at least mine does), so in the summer my office space can be a few degrees warmer than elsewhere.
- The lifespan has a 48" belt which is more than enough for a 6' person. I easily have 6" behind my feet that I rarely use (since I know I have it, sometimes, I'll slow down a bit and distance myself from my computer screen).
This under desk walking pad is best for slow workday walking in tight spaces, with minimal assembly and easy moving or storage under a standing desk. The low profile and optional safety cord fit desk use, and the motor is described as fairly quiet. The main tradeoffs are the 3.1 mph top speed, which is not a power walk pace, and the lack of handrails or incline on this version. Fit and durability concerns also come up, along with reports that the tracking can be off.
People working at a standing desk who want slow-paced movement while typing, because it fits under the desk and supports low-intensity walking during work.
People doing light rehab or casual walking sessions, because it is described as useful for physical therapy and slow-paced use rather than hard training.
No. 3.1 mph is a slow walking pace rather than a true power-walk speed, so it is better suited to light walking, work-from-home use, or physical-therapy-style movement than higher-intensity workouts.
Yes. It uses a pull-out safety cord/clip style auto-shutoff, and the unit will not move until the safety pin is inserted. The clip can be left on the ground if you are not using it, but it still needs to be in place for operation.
The product images suggest a 200 lb limit, but the instructions do not list one. The 200 lb figure appears to be the nominal limit shown in Amazon photos.
This model is the handle-free under-desk version, and the handle version is listed separately at a higher price. For desk walking, the lack of a handle is often preferred because it stays out of the way.
The motor itself is reported to be fairly quiet, but the overall noise depends on your footsteps and shoes. In an apartment or thin-walled setup, the walking impact may matter more than the motor.
I would never buy one of these because a 20-minute mile pace is the upper speed limit, and I'd be concerned about overworking the motor and burning it out at that slow pace.
Where would you put your chair when using these? I Guess you need a desk deep enough to tuck this under and then roll it out each time you want to use it?

Agreed. This might be useful for someone doing physical therapy, but it's not meant for higher intensity exercise.

Are we really thinking an under desk walking pad would provide any high intensity workout? These comments are wild.
Biggest thing to me is space for this. I have a standing desk and seems like a nice addition but then storing it somewhere when not using would be tough. Maybe stand up on wall? Do people just full send an remove chair and just have this and stand all day?

I work from home, I have a different model, but the reason why I have one is just to walk at a slow pace while getting work done. I keep mine stored under my standing. I have it on its side leaning on my desk's leg. It sticks out a past my desk, but I placed on the side I don't walk by often.

I've got an adjustable standing desk. I don't have this model, but a different one, move it behind me when not in use. When not using walking pad, two different wobble boards (depending on how much want to work my balance) - hardly ever sit at my desk anymore, but do have a chair I can wheel in when I want to sit

My comment wasn't about workout intensity, it was about literally burning out the motor because of how underpowered it is.
I bought this one with rails a couple months ago. https://a.co/d/0hkokXrA
Definitely cheaper materials and the speed,calories tracking seems way off compare when I used my Apple Watch. But needed a minimal assembly, easy to move and for smaller space in my bedroom and it fits those qualities. I only do walking and slow paced jogging. Also i dont have proper 3 prong walll sockets so it's plugged into a 4000 joules surge protector. I make sure only the treadmill and a google mesh WiFi pod is only plugged in at same time. Just to be safe when I use the treadmill for 30-40 mins. So unfortunately I can't watch tv or stream music from echo show plugged in same surge protector since I'd rather not risk it. But for basic treadmill for less than $150 if it lasts a year I'll take it. I plan to travel in May and might stay for longer period and rather than paying $5 a day for gym guest pass at planet fitness. I might just rebuy the same treadmill and just use it there
