Walking treadmills are a godsend for people who don't like to "make time to exercise". It took me maybe a week to learn how to walk and type at the same time, and now I can walk all day long while I'm working, playing games, or just goofing off on the internet. I can easily get 20,000 steps a day without even thinking about it. It takes a few days for your feet to get used to it - they'll be sore at first. But power through it and you won't even notice after a week.
Some advice: DO THE MAINTENANCE. If you use the treadmill every day, you NEED to maintain it every six months or so. Loosen the tread belt and clean underneath it with an old t-shirt or another thin piece of cotton or linen. Clean underneath the side rails. Use the provided liquid silicone lubricant on the tread base - not too much, but don't skimp, either. Take the plastic cover off over the motor housing and clean it out. It's only four screws and they come off easily; it's designed to be taken off and cleaned. If you have pets, pet hair will accumulate in here, as will dust. (Don't use a vacuum cleaner on the electronics board - it will short it out with static electricity!)
An additional maintenance item I have discovered recently is to use a spray silicone lubricant on the motor and flywheel: I sprayed some WD-40 silicone on the inside of the flywheel, and the treadmill starts up a lot better now, especially when it's cold. I was having trouble with the "E1" error, which seems to mean it can't get enough startup torque or something. I would not use the spray on the axle itself, as it is already lubricated with grease, and you might actually displace that if you use a spray on it.
Make sure you properly balance the tension of the tread belt, using the screws on the back, and don't lose the Allen key! If the tread belt is not balanced, too tight, or too loose it'll wear against the side or flap against the rollers and be noisy. This may take you some time to figure out; go slow, one turn or even half a turn at a time.
I recommend getting a cheap, dumb pedometer. Apple Watches and other "smart" fitness trackers often require three axes of motion to accurately track steps, and on a treadmill you're only moving in two. A twenty dollar pedometer works great, though you're not able to automatically record your steps in an app (which is annoying).
Get a standing mat (like cashiers use) to put on the treadmill for when you aren't walking. Standing on the treadmill when it's not in motion isn't good for your feet or your back. A standing mat (also called an anti-fatigue mat) makes it so that you don't have to roll it out of the way when you're not using it.
Finally, get one of those treadmill mats to put underneath it. They are basically the same foam material as a standing mat, just large enough for a treadmill. It will dramatically cut down on noise and vibration, especially if you have hardwood floors. They're cheap and make things much quieter.
The walking treadmill is the most positive impact I've ever had on my health. I've lost over twenty pounds and kept it off without any changes to my diet - and most of that weight came off in the first six months. My resting heart rate has gone down over fifteen beats a minute, and my blood pressure is down more than ten points without drugs. I can walk for hours without getting tired, and I actually enjoy going on walks now. I no longer get winded doing things that once left me exhausted, and at almost fifty years old, I'm in the best cardiovascular health of my adult life.
The desk cost plenty so I was especially trying to avoid a high price tag for the treadmill.
The main competitor's treadmill at this time costs closer to $1000, with caveats how many hours you could use it a day!
And if you want to walk more than 6 hours a day they suggest upgrading to the $1200 unit (on their web page!)
I've read the Rebel has no such limitation.
This unit has a top speed of 2 MPH. Which is completely adequate if not ideal for desk use allowing the motor to small enough and quiet enough to be ideal for a low profile / light duty treadmill (e.g. under-the-desk type). I read somewhere that walking treadmills that have a top speed of 4MPH are actually using re-purposed running treadmill motors (e.g. heavier duty motors optimized for a different task) and that a heavy person walking at too low a speed on an over-capacity motor will strain the motor too much which can harm the motor and burn out the controller board (so can forgetting to lube the belt, leading to increased friction which mars the running board under the belt but that's another issue).
What I like about this unit is:
- Straightforward. Worked right out of the box with no setup. Not much read or learn to use it.
- Small "footprint" but wide enough (18") and long enough for walking.
- Motor is surprisingly quiet
- Belt is textured well so you can walk comfortably in socks or slippers
- Discreet, looks nice. Doesn't take up more space than necessary.
- Motor comes up to speed and slows down very smoothly and gently.
It weighs only 88 lbs and has wheels on the front so you can lift the tail part (which weighs
much less than the front where the motor is), and can easily roll it where where you want
it to go.
My impression is this model is engineered very carefully and specifically for the under-desk
walking role, and has no more and no less than necessary in every respect. It appears
well designed, well built and solid.
Though I just got it, don't anticipate problems.
Though the motor is quiet, be aware the impact of shoes will make the most noticeable noise.
And how *much* noise I imagine depends on the speed of the treadmill, weight of the
person, style of walking, how hard the soles of the shoes are. The motor itself
is quieter than our Sole Fitness treadmill which is a much heftier larger machine, and I had
to replace the controller, running board and belt on that so I've gotten a feel for what treadmills
about from that.
