Sperax Walking Treadmill Pad with APP, 3 in 1 Under Desk Treadmill, 400W Low Noise Walking Vibration Pad with Remote Control,Portable Treadmills for Home Office

Why 5 stars? Because it more than met my expectations. I have a Lift Desk, in my 50’s and have a desk job. You get the drift. Initially my review is more about using something like this rather than this actual product so hang in there. After a month of using this there are some surprising outcomes: -initially I actually had trouble walking straight without a hand-grab onto my desk here and there and after a week the most simple thing you might think of (walking a straight line with perfect foot timing) became my norm. —I like this so much I carry it downstairs from my home office to be in front of my TV. This is weird to even say but I can look anywhere around me and maintain a straight line. —I didn’t mention I’m an avid backpacker so I should be able to walk a straight line right? Well, not so much so I’ve seen. So I’m not coming at this from a couch potato position. I also strength train 3-4 days per week, using heavy free weights. —I have a less-than great walking profile where I sometimes drag my foot. This has almost cost me huge injuries hiking in tough terrain: —-since using this (I’m sure it’s true of ALL such devices) my gait and footfall is nearly perfect. —-after backpacking so many years I developed Morton’s Neuroma. I found out the hard way how to properly manage your footwear while hiking. This has reduced that pain a lot. ——-why do I care about this? My father literally died from multiple falls for this same trait of scraping his feet, but when he was over 80, it was deadly. I wanted to correct myself before I got near that age. 80 Is no longer that old-at least IMO. I don’t care to just live long, I want to live as a mobile, active person. So far so good. About the device: —-I found my sweet spot at 3.2 mph and it has been flawless, however… ——I needed to adjust the roll drifting to one side using the included Allen wrench and after a week of use I needed to lubricate the rollers ———seemed much earlier than necessary but the directions on adjusting these things and the included lube and wrench fixed this. I haven’t had to adjust for three weeks and counting. ——-I’m averaging 5 miles a day and a big part of that is while working and using a keyboard and mouse of course. After getting my gait straight this is not an issue at all. In fact, I have a ton of energy throughout the work day and lost weight which wasn’t a desired outcome when I went into this: —-my coworker heard a light, droning sound while we spoke on Microsoft Teams when I had this at 3.2 mph, but it was so little (I didn’t tell her I was using this). I turned it to 2.5 and she could no longer hear. I was using the microphone included in my webcam so I had little background noise reduction. So it’s quiet enough. It’s only been a bit more than a month so five stars is at this moment. I may be using it more than typical. I also enjoy it and often forget I’m using it. I made my Apple Watch finally STFU, as I am exceeding all goals a computer told me I needed to meet. That’s cool. One of our cats is also enamored with this thing and figured out how to use it; all she wanted was to lay under my feet but our “chunky monkey”gets her own workout when I’m not using it. I just slow it down and step away and watch her go.

This is an excellent choice for apartment living. The treadmill is compact, doesn’t take up much space, and is very easy to store when not in use. It fits perfectly into a small apartment without feeling bulky or intrusive. I really like how quiet it is — I can use it daily without worrying about noise. It’s very convenient for walking while working or just staying active throughout the day. The controls are simple, everything works smoothly, and the overall build quality feels solid and reliable. It’s been a great addition to my daily routine and makes it much easier to stay active at home. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a compact and apartment-friendly walking treadmill.

The pad is relatively compact and easy to use. It can be easily stowed in a closet or under a bed. It isn’t silent but it is not terribly loud. It works well overall. It is important to take breaks so it doesn’t overheat, and be sure to use it on a solid surface.

I absolutely love this treadmill pad so much that I actually bought two of them. One for my home and one for my rental where I work. That alone should say a lot. It’s lightweight, easy to move around, and doesn’t take up a ton of space, which is huge for me. The app is a fun bonus it has different training programs that make it feel less boring and more motivating to use regularly. The vibration plate feature is honestly one of my favorite parts. It’s great for foot massages after a long day, and I also use it when I’m working out with weights for extra activation and recovery. Overall, I love everything about it. Super convenient, well designed, and actually something I use consistently. Definitely worth it.

I feel like I am really flirting with the angel of death using this thing, because I have several health conditions that make balancing a bit of a challenge. I also get tripped up on the back caps, sometimes I nick the lcd panel area with my foot, and sometimes my stride is too long and I feel the back roller which also startles me but I'm getting more used to that one. I am 5'7 and can make this work for me, my husband is 5'11 and seems to have an easier time than me but he prefers to walk at 2 mph. I think if you were much taller though or have really long strides, you might have issues or you'll need to adjust your gait. I regret not buying the one with the handlebar, my husband felt that we did not need to spend the extra money. In my opinion, it is worth the extra money. I also feel really dizzy after using it because of the equilibrium, I like that they have it slow to a stop to try and get you used to the stopping of the motion, but for me I still feel like the room is moving quite a bit and always have to grab a doorway to make sure I don't fall, because I don't trust that I won't. I would honestly return this and get the handlebar version, but for whatever reason the handlebar version is now unlisted. Oh well. We've added this to our diet regime as it is really hot outside and I am so social phobic, I hate being around people, this gets two birds with one stone. I get a good sweat from it and feel that my heart rate is high after using it (look up heart rates and weight loss), meaning I am getting a proper workout. I do 2.8 for 30 minutes a day at the moment because it has been a long while since I have used a treadmill. I am currently 280 lbs and my husband is around 340, his first try on it it was clearly struggling but since we have started our diet and I'm sure he is lighter now than he was then, it sounds like it is working excellently. I'm really grateful that this pad has such a high weight limit as every other treadmill typically has a limit of 260 lbs which would not even hold me (when you get too fat to even work out, oof.) I also forgot to put it up one night and tripped over it going to retrieve something from our office, all 280 lbs of me came crashing down on it full force, I completely ate it, it was shockingly completely in one piece after and still works the same, so you can add extremely solid and sturdy to the list, just remember to put it up after you use it! Overall, even despite its downfalls, I highly recommend this pad! There is nothing better than being able to exercise well in your own home. The treadmill is my favorite exercise and I'm falling in love with it all over again. This pad is super affordable, transportable, and the high weight limit makes it useable for so many more people compared to many other pads.

I bought this walking pad to use at work. I also purchased a standing desk separately to use with it. I use this to simply move my body during the workday, because my desk job doesn't require much moving. I use it almost every day and it's working just fine. It seems to be pretty sturdy and it's easy to use. My office is carpeted, so I don't have it on a pad. I don't walk at a fast pace while I'm working, so I can't speak to it's ability to accommodate that, but if you're just wanting to move your body, it gets the job done. It's easy to set up and the maintenance instructions are clear. It's also pretty quiet, so it isn't bothersome to those close by. I think my actual walking is louder than the treadmill. I recommend it if you're in the market for a simple way to get walking in.

I have found that since I started WFH that my activity level had decreased from what it used to be. When I go to the plant to work, I end up doing a lot more walking than I do at home for various reasons. I used to go outside for a walk but that proved to be challenging at times because obviously when I left the house my computer stayed here and I wasn't able to respond quickly to any requests that came my way. I needed a way to get some steps in while I am in my home office. I didn't want to get a traditional treadmill because they are typically pretty large and heavy, not to mention that they can be pretty expensive. I knew that I would end up having to put it in my basement which although more convenient, obviously, than walking outside I still was away from my computer to keep close to the action. Also, often I wake up in the middle of the night with sore joints (arthritis) and a little bit of walking helps reduce this stiffness and soreness. Obviously way more convenient to walk on this versus getting dressed to walk outside, especially if the weather isn't cooperating. Then I discovered this item. This is exactly what it looks like it is -- a small compact, and portable treadmill. First, I will address some things that it doesn't have that may or may not matter to people considering this. It does not have railings, it does not have an adjustable incline, and lastly it doesn't go fast enough to be useful for running. The top speed is 3.8 MPH. That's a very fast walk, but definitely not a run. If these things are important to you than this may not be a good fit for you. However, if you are looking for a very affordable, compact, inexpensive compared to a full-sized treadmill, easy to use and operate, and finally very easy to put away when not in use then this is definitely worth a look. I am 6'4" inches tall and about 270 lbs. Luckily this device can accommodate up to 350 lbs I believe. However, being tall does cause its own set of challenges -- not the least of which is that I have a fairly long stride compared to many people. However, this walking pad is long enough that I can use it with no issues. If a tall, heavy guy like me can use it then those who are of more average sizes should be just fine. It is essentially 2 devices in one. The first feature and the one that I exclusively use is that it is a walking pad that goes from 0.1 to 3.8 mph. That's fast enough for me. It also is a vibration pad. To be honest I have never really used this, aside from trying it out. I can say that it is pretty powerful, but at present I haven't found a use for that feature. Another feature I really like is that I really like is the included remote control. It would be very inconvenient to have to bend down to change any settings (like speed for example) on the pad itself, which is where the remote comes in. You can adjust the speed of the pad from the remote or shut it off which will end your workout session. Unfortunately, you cannot pause the workout from the remote. However, there is another feature that in my opinion greatly expands upon the remote. There is an associated app which can be downloaded to your smart phone. I have an iPhone so that is all I can speak to. With the app you can pair the walking pad and then a number of other features come into play. Not the least of which is the ability to start, pause, or end the workout. You can also change the speed, and it shows on the display a one-mile track that gives you a visual representation so you can see how far or close you are to getting to the one-mile mark. I really like that feature. Just like a treadmill at a gym you can access pre-programmed workouts or even make your own. There's even a "Quick Start" mode where you just hop on and adjust it as you go. It records your workouts as you do them. I have an Apple Watch so that I can record my indoor walk workout to my Apple Fitness app, which is how I keep track of my walking. The one thing that I thought I would miss from having a traditional treadmill was not having the railings. I have a few thoughts on that. What I do is I place my walking pad next to a table or a desk and that is my "railing". Secondly, when I walk, I keep the corner of the desk or table in my peripheral vision. That way I will know if I am perhaps not keeping myself centered on the belt. This is probably not as big of deal for people with shorter strides but nevertheless it is good to keep that in mind. Finally, the walking pad sits fairly close to the floor and if I were to slip off the back it is only 2 inches (at most) to the floor. I have never tempted fate, but I am sure that it would not cause me to trip or fall. The final thing I would like to say is that if you are short on space, or if you just don't want to leave something out all the time if you aren't using it, then this walking pad is not that big and weighs under 30 lbs. It can easily be put under a bed, a coach, a desk, or stood up in a closet or corner. It would take 30 seconds to put it away. Turn it off, unplug it, and walk it over to where you want to store it. Try that with a traditional treadmill. To recap -- if you want a great WALKING (speed </= 3.8 mph) pad with tons of features then this is a great choice. I am very happy with my purchase.

Minus ⭐️ due to a design flaw. While walking when, not if, when the sneaker touches the plastic at either corner the piece will break off. This said, the device is fantastic. Fits easily under the bed/seat. Easy to use. Enjoy. Super happy. Since using it the past few weeks both sides popped off. I’m not sure why there’s a slight lip on either side. While walking at 3.0 enjoying watching some YouTube University learning videos was careful to keep myself within the boundary, or belt. The issue for me is a 36 inch inseam. I’ve worked to have a solid stride and keep the remote with me in my hoody pocket to adjust as needed. This said, it only takes on oops, the foot touched the plastic, combined with the pull of the belt to pop goes the weasel end cap gone. Even if I crazy glue it back this will happen again. It’s unavoidable. I appreciate the size and configuration. It is perfect for me in every way. Sharing this info for the developer to consider. Make those back plastic pieces curve down not up. It’s the lip of the plastic that’s the issue. If this were curved down my sneaker tread wouldn’t have grabbed it. The tree couldn’t have kept my foot going before the casualty. And correction. I’ve practiced turning the speed up and down. Never start at 3. Or more. My stride is gradual. Either way. Please fix this flaw. It’ll help a lot of people be safe. It can be jarring if unexpected. Like, someone could go WTF. Look. Fall back. Off. Be hurt. It only takes one injured person to shut a device down. This is the risk we take without a handle bar. This is the purpose for safety. For me, prefer this fit in the home gym. With understanding, you must be good at balancing yourself. And, one thing I’ve done is where a back support when I feel myself wanting to tip forward. I think this is the body trying to balance itself. But, can cause back discomfort If you’re like me, wanna do two things at once. Two handed remote action. One for the tv learning or show. One for the tread. Make sure to start slow. Train your brain to react appropriately. Keep the same remote in the same hand so muscle memory can help for safety. One morning I got on before I woke up. Thought slip on the shoes. Start walking. Cautionary tale. Make sure your alert. For safety. It’s not like taking the dog out on a sidewalk before I do anything else at 4 am. For this lovely equipment requires more alert brain waves. At least for me. Now, I try to boost the blood sugar with some fluids, like my super good morning beverage. Sometimes a bit of specialty coffee from Morning Movement. Anything to ensure I’m wide awake. Hope this update is helpful. Wanna share experiences to help others enjoy this wonderful gadget while also helping the manufacture improve. Thanks for your thumbs up as this encourages me, too 😊 /\update Wow, so many pluses. To begin, price. Including a discount absolutely can NOT be beat for reasons needed. As someone who struggles to wanna walk for a few reasons had been eye balling equipment. Use in my ‘no excuses’ fitness regime. Following a major storm called Derecho in 2020 after COVID closures was not able to walk the community due to 60% of the trees toppled over by the storm blocking the way for the German Shepherd and myself to go on our typical long walks. Then, a few events including a major injury in my rotator cup made walking the dog impossible or even playing frisbee to help him get his workout on. When we finally got back into our walks we’d do a mile almost daily if it isn’t raining. This isn’t enough is my conclusion. And, we always go when it’s still dark in the morning to afford time to go work in the community gardens I’m helping to renovate. Why share the story? Maybe you relate. Some happenstances or just everyday life with the family or perhaps caring for a loved one. Many reasons to not be able to get the walk in happen. When I created the no excuses workout strategy I was training for a mud run. My biggest obstacle at the time was the rope climb. My upper body is strong but pulling my entire self up and over a way didn’t seem likely. Even though I’m a slender build and at the time a few extra pounds of muscle from a solid fitness regime. I installed a chin up bar to the bathroom. Charged myself a toll to go. A chin up or minimally hang. Until I could do one. Eventually, I was able to do six. My arms are super long so it takes a lot. For me, as a veteran remembering that struggle in full uniform to pull up and fail. This was quite a triumph. To include a new life strategy. Set up so there’s no excuses. At this juncture most people could deduct but just in case the clues didn’t make sense, bought this device to provide no excuses for walking during winter months. I gave the dog a trial and even one of his kitties named Floofe’ who’s a bit large and she likes it very much. In December 2019 prior to COVID closures has decided to invest in a basic weight bench since I’d bought a property with plenty of rooms. Combine this with fly press and leg lift with my other equipment, like a row machine, bike mount to use the cycle in and out doors, plus other equipment. Since I decided it would be fun and easier to have a gym as close as a walk into the next room from the office. I’ve got a step machine that’s similar to walking but prefer the walk stride to relax. Now, onto what’s to love, in my view, about this gadget besides price. -It fits under the twin couch the dog and his cats enjoy. -The remote is simple to use and makes adjusting speed easy. -The speed is limited due to no handles and I appreciate the safety of this limit. -the equipment is on a slight incline of a little over an inch. -manual is easy to understand. Offers safety and upkeep instructions that can eliminate issues described by other users. I’m sure some are equipment failure as at times these things happen to the best of products, like this one. But some users didn’t read the guide and it’s unfortunate use struggles arose. -oil for upkeep included. -remote makes slow speed increase via use easy. The machine when clicking off automatically slows. I recommend starting slow. Then, adding a “+” as you adjust to feeling comfortable and safe at let’s say 2. Slowly gain speed. I find 3 a nice go of it for a brief period. Then, I slow a bit. Then, increase. Similar to a natural walk in nature. It’s also disruptive to the body and is proven to help not grow complacent physically. Google the reasons to know more. Hope this helps keep things interesting. -I’ve found zero cons for our needs. -during use, when watching a show or mentally drifting enjoying the trek, if a sudden sound happens it means you’ve stepped on the end. This is helpful for me since I have a long stride. Notice when I began walking tend to look down. But, over time focus more on the interesting YouTube on a research topic or show. Without a handrail it’s easy to drift back slowly. With the rear sound when I stepped on the back was able to teach myself to autocorrect. The second time. First time, was startled. If this is you to surprises can train your brain to expect this might happen when in the chill brain zone. How? Intentionally touch the area to hear how it sounds. Do this a few times. The brain will adapt and include forward step. This way you can enjoy mental drift safely. I enjoy lots of research. If it’s a visual can combine fitness and research. Imagine watching a movie for two hours. If you can manage 2,000 steps in about 20 or so minutes at 2.5 speed. In the two hours the flick goes would walk how far? Pretty cool, huh? 😊 A word to the wise user, pay attention during the first few times of use. Like practice. Eventually you’ll enjoy safe walking and enjoying visual things you like. If facing a window with a bird feeder or a tv playing a bird feeder. Either way the brain gets a benefit of peaceful enjoyment while the body gets the benefit of becoming happier. The only visual that based on the summary prior to purchase didn’t make sense is showing someone running. 3.8 mph aka miles per hour isn’t much of a run. More like a power walk. This said, maybe a jog for someone with less leg length. My legs are a 36 inch inseam. For me to run would need a pad twice the length. So far, I use the remote to vary speeds mentioned earlier. I’m really enjoying this device. Glancing down know the details, how far. How long. Speed. Etc. I bought this dream for walking. The max speed is perfect for my needs. Exactly what I want. If the cat uses this will have the little buddy in a harness and until she’s used to the slow stride will make sure to support her. If the dog decides this is something he likes will supervise a slow paced setting. He enjoys a game we play named speed frisbee. Two frisbees and none stop fetch and trade until he can’t run anymore is how we tackle extreme cold weather for his fitness needs. I like to sprint with him so his gets my faster moves in I learned during research and books like, The One Minute Workout: science shows a way to get fit that’s smarter, faster, shorter. Sprinting and walking have helped me regain my goals. Along with slowly healing from the arm injury that took almost two years. I’m on the later end of that journey thankfully. Hoping this share encourages others who have struggles to get started or back at it due to a break for whatever reason. Me, wake up. Slip on walking shoes. Grab remote and go! My hope is getting more distance. Charge myself a toll if I wanna watch a show. I like rowing for hours. Or, step. Or, cycle. Now, walking is in style for many a mile 🙌🏼 If you look to the left of the photo, kitty inspection during unboxing 😁 Living a long happy life when busy working toward publishing, rehabbing a property for a creative arts studio and office, and preparing for the YouTube launch sharing tour/travel, talk (conversational interviews), taste (cooking and high end quality coffee made and beverages), tips and tools for anyone in the publishing and other related industries helping authors move the needle of connecting with their audience … whether interviewing an author I’ve reviewed to cool YouTubers I know who share content to media marketing and how to tour tips … This device for the price and ability make keeping myself spritely and healthy for longevity and can you as well on a budget. My main goal here is sharing my experience. If you’re a prime customer can return if it’s a dud for you. If you have some of these tips and knowledge for understanding can enjoy your own fitness journey. Based on Blue Zone studies or how centurion's are created. Even if you don’t live to greater than 100 years it’s clear walking is a mainstay to well-being. If you’re a shut in a win. If a veteran like myself who doesn’t always feel up to going out or it’s winter this gadget makes a no excuse win. For the pets, supervision. Teach. Slow and happy for the indoor kitties. Or, even a dog. It’s up to you. Take responsibility for use and grow happier for the tool and hope the tips help 😊
