    I'm at the beginning of my search for a walking pad and this video has been really helpful. Every point you made makes a lot of sense and really helps. Thank you!

    In an apartment you need a some cushioning under your treadmill, there a re loads available. As for you power these thing as only 918watts they should not be causing any electrical problems which in the US is about 7-8amps perhaps your apartment has an electrical issue.

    Very informative. Thank you!
    I also was thinking about the speed and found many walking pads go to 4mph at most and since I'm recovering from a foot injury, I prefer walking pace, but I also wanted one with some incline and I found two, they're a bit pricy but worth it for me.
    I used to prefer going outside then speding on a tredmill but something it gets late and I really don't want to get exposed to the insecurity outside since I'm from Mexico... so choosing the walking pad it is! 😊

      I described my usage above, some. The Sperax I have is 3.8 mph max speed. I've used it a bit over 3 months, and for most of that I was doing 3.0 mph (20-minute mile). I recently bumped up to 3.2 mph. One of the "features" I wanted from the walking pad is that weather, time of day, and traffic are irrelevant. The minimum speed of my pad is .6 mph, and for your recovery the slower speeds may be helpful for rebuilding endurance.

    I'm a different sort of user than this very helpful reviewer in some ways. I'm older, 6" tall, and a bit north of 300 lbs. I walk one or two 5K and/or 10K running events a month and my work includes a decent amount of walking about the building. My weight and budget pretty much determined what I bought (though what I have was not expensive, and I don't know if higher priced brands/models have the 320 lb. weight limit I bought). My belt surface is 37 1/2" x 15". Because of my stride I wish it were a bit longer, and I do have to focus some on where I am so I don't drift too far left or right. I would find a fold-up bar useful for that, but I positioned the pad near furniture I can use to help stay in the right area of the belt. What is my "Why?" I'm just trying to add a bit more activity into my day, basically an extra half mile, 3 or 4 times a week. That really is not a lot, but my finish times in my most recent 5Ks have been the best I've done in a couple of years. So that benefit has happened faster and greater than I anticipated. Were I to join a gym, that would be ~$30/month, plus gas and travel time ... in that sense the pad will pay for itself in 8 or 9 months.

    What about noise levels? I intend to use my walking pad in the office, it's a big concern.

    • @petestorz172
      @petestorz172 10 днів тому

      The usability will depend on the noise level in your office and whether you have cubicle walls that dampen sound. I think I could use mine in my cubicle if sound were the key consideration, but it might be a close call. The whir of the motors is not the main sound, it's the footfalls of each step.

      It does work. I do this with my manual treadmill and I use the fitness app along with steps app to compare between the two. I definitely don't think it's 100% accurate, most devices are not, but it is a good ballpark to measure progress over time. Hope this helps. 🙂

      Unfortunately I still haven't heard back from them yet for the US coupon, so I've just tried emailing them again 😔. The only coupon that appears to be working is for the UK site in case you happen to be ordering from there: walkingpad.pxf.io/c/1358364/1771351/16080.
