It's not just for fit young women - it's good for old men who want to stay fit. :-) My traditional rowing machine and treadmill had to go when we moved home five years ago, as everything had to go into storage for a long time. I was desperate to get back on the machines again but don't have a convenient spare room. The folding rower not only fits my bedroom but looks furniture-like, too. I love the sound of the water and the variability one can obtain with stroke speed. Can't wait to get a folding treadmill to go under the bed!! My wife loves it, too...
I have Parkinson’s disease so I need to do as much walking as possible to maintain mobility, having the X218 means I can walk whenever I want to, and break into a jog occasionally too! It’s sturdy, easy to open and close, and to move around. It fits perfectly under my home gym TV and I’m now thinking about purchasing the WR20 Folding Water Rower.
Love it!!! It isn’t cheap but a fair price for a quality piece of kit. Fast simple ordering process on line. Equally fast efficient delivery. Easy to unpack and get going. Quality piece of equipment. Works exactly as intended. Excellent for brisk walking or jogging. I’m already burning 300 calories a day, every day without even trying. It’s so easy to watch TV on my IPad on the accessory shelf or listen to music. App works well also and provides some interesting data/graphs of performance. In short, thoroughly recommend.
WalkingPad Z1 has been great. I hate leaving the house to work so this has allowed me to get my daily steps in. I’m ranging between 6-12k steps on a daily basis. I’d recommend the Z1 to anyone.
I absolutely love this walking pad. It feels so close to the quality of the ones in the gym, it's so sturdy! It's a bit bigger than expected but I definitely trust it to walk and run on. It has good safety featurse and is very easy to work. I am very happy with my purchase
I bought the WalkingPad G5i in addition to my WalkingPad R1 Pro. It is a very sturdy treadmill, which is reflected in the fact that it weighs approximately twice as much as the R1 Pro. It feels stable and secure when both walking and running.
The incline feature is excellent, as it allows me to achieve a higher heart rate while exercising at a lower speed. When the incline is activated, it also seems to provide additional cushioning, making the treadmill feel comfortable and gentle on my knees.
It can connect via Bluetooth to an Apple Watch and display your heart rate on the treadmill. However, you need to install and run the KS Fit app on the watch. If you simultaneously start a workout using Apple’s native Workout app, the treadmill stops receiving your heart-rate data.
Overall, I am very pleased with the G5i. It offers considerably more functionality than the R1 Pro while still taking up very little space.
I bought the Walking Pad Z3 Hybrid + as it was offered at a good discount rate and also had the option of the bar. I really wanted to use this as a walking machine but thought Ito would make a lot of sense buying this as it would give me the added option to run if I wanted to. I must say that I was surprised by the size and weight. I read a lot of comments about people finding it to be heavier than they thought but once you get your head around that to me it suggests it’s well made and likely to last longer. Time will tell but it certainly seems to feel reassuringly sturdy. I leave it folded in half in my living room space. I only have a small home and no separate room for a gym but I don’t want to store it away. I want to see it’s there and be encouraged to use it and this works for me. The motor is relatively quiet and I can really have a good walk watching a film and if I need to stop it will pick up again from where I left off. The app is really useful as it keeps record of my performance and there are many options to try routines which I can look into later but being able to see the results and information so easily on both the screen and the app is really useful. I had a much cheaper treadmill before but despite the fact this folds in half it really feels like a proper machine and is surprisingly more gym like than you might think. It’s a great design and a great product which I feel is worth the money. It doesn’t have the walking pad sensitivity where you can set the speed higher or lower by walking backwards or forwards but because it offers you the option to run and walk I think it’s probably just as easy to use the remote if not easier than trying to do a dance routine to adjust the speed without. Again, it was a bit bigger and more heavy than I imagined and when it arrived my first thought was “Oh no” I should have gone for a lighter version just for walking. But I’m glad I made this choice as it gives me options. By the way, I have to give credit for a super fast delivery and a really great service from the driver who brought it right to my door on his own and even called to let me know when they would be coming. I’ve read some negative reviews about the walking pad on line and people complaining they develop issues. I really hope mine doesn’t because it’s going to be a nightmare sending it back but all in all my view to this equipment is very positive and as long as you remember it’s a sizeable and sturdy item. It doesn’t have the fold. It does take up less space if left folded on the floor and it’s a fantastic piece of equipment that will meet the challenges it was designed for.
My best purchase ever! 😁
We are not all born runners, but we can all walk and jog and this makes it so easy to start.
Honestly, do not overthink it. Just get a walking pad, it can genuinely change your daily routine and your life.
I spent about a month researching walking pads and comparing all the specs, I wanted something that would take up as little room as possible and wouldn't look like a cheap piece of plastic.
Ended up buying the Z1, it does look smart and it performs well, I've been using it around once a day for a month now, always for an hour or less. I oiled it from day one. No problems with the app at all, always connects, it syncs steps to Google Fit (but not Health Connect or Fitbit, but that's okay).
Why 2 stars? First issue is that on second use, the fold crease got an air bubble, this seems to be a design fault and I'd be surprised if it isn't present on all other Z1s, it makes it quite noisy, like you're popping bubble wrap every step you take...
Second issue... as mentioned, I'm less than a month into light usage, and the motor has started making strange noises that it didn't do before, makes me think it's probably not going to last too long. We'll see.
Overall just not what I was expecting from a product and company that positions itself as the go-to premium walking pad, I'm not alone as these issues are often reported on the internet.
Love this treadmill. I use it when the kids are in bed and even on 2nd floor of the house its nice and quiet and doesnt wake the neighbours.
Desk is fab for when I work from home too and the cup holder is a nice touch!
App works well and the wrist controls / safety catch work well
Really happy with the WalkingPad X218. I can watch football or my favourite Netflix show Dexter while getting my 10k steps in, which makes it so easy to stay consistent. The display and controls are clean and intuitive, and the KS app works well. Speeds go high enough for a serious workout, and the width/length is perfect even for someone 193cm+. I also like the side handle support and built-in emergency stop for safety.
Only small downside is a slight stutter feeling when changing speeds - but overall, very impressed.
Love my walking pad, I just pop on to do half an hour if I’ve been sitting for a long time or if I need to get my steps up for the day. Haven’t had any issues so far but only had it 2 weeks. Would highly recommend
I absolutely love this treadmill!!
It is quite heavy, but thanks to the handle and wheels you can move and maneuvre it.
Folds away very nicely.
Speed is also really good, you can properly run on it.
Really happy with the purchase and would defo recommend.
I spent a lot of time researching walking pads and decided to go for the C2. As I am tall I wanted the longer walking area because it folds it easily slides under the chair in the living room. I am able to jog on the machine aswell.
I have had excellent customer service from start to finish. It was super easy to set up and I love the sleek design. I am now able to get my steps in when it suits me. I did not like walking in the dark or rain so this has had a huge impact on my fitness. I 100% recommend the UK walking pads company. 🙌🏼
Great walking pad, speed is perfect topping out at 6kph, folds away for very easy storage, well built and quieter than I imagined even after reading reviews that stated it was quiet enough, very happy with it.
Great addition to my routine , having a small home gym in a garden extension I opted to put this “ closer as it reminds me to get my steps in and now there is no excuse for not having a walk 😝 thank you for such good service and for such a wonderful product
I’m impressed with the WalkingPad R3 Hybrid+. The footprint is excellent, it doesn’t take up much space at all, and the fact that it folds away neatly is a huge plus, especially if you don’t have a dedicated workout room.
I love that it allows both walking and running, which makes it very versatile. It’s also quiet, which is ideal for home use.
My husband uses it regularly while working from home with a standing desk, and it works perfectly for walking while working. He also uses it for a short run in the mornings, which is a great bonus.
Overall, it’s a well designed, space saving treadmill that fits easily into everyday life. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a compact but flexible home treadmill.
I’ve been put off buying a treadmill for years due to the space they take up. I love the fact that this can be folded in half and moved out of the way if we have visitors, even though most of the time we have it out so we can pop on it whilst watching tv. It doesn’t go fast but you can walk at a brisk 6k per hour which is fine for what we wanted it for. Easy to set up, and I have put the app on my phone. I usually just use it with my Apple Watch to measure steps and activity though. Making sure I get my steps in is much easier now, as I can do it even if it is miserable outside.
Bought the X21 and WM10 at the same time. I really love these two products. The quality is excellent, and I especially appreciate their foldable design. It perfectly meets my need for practical fitness equipment, while also allowing my room to easily transform from a gym into an office. This design has brought great convenience to my daily life—truly amazing!
Great for getting steps in, with the wet day and dark nights we get here in the UK. Simply put on some music or your favourite tv programme and go for a walk. You'll be amazed how quickly the time flies.
Easy to set up and app is great it is a bonus to keep fit in bad weather and our Dachsund is loving it too (if a little obsessed with it now, he can hear it turned on from a different room and howls to join in!)
This is a great product — I really love the walking pad. It’s compact, thin, and perfect for small spaces. However, it’s extremely heavy and there’s no handle to move it around. This makes it almost impossible to relocate within the room, especially for a woman, as there’s nothing to grip or lift from. This is a major disadvantage.
