While shoppers decide their New Year routines and resolutions, many may settle on incorporating more exercise into their day as a great way to stay fit and happy. There’s a hugely practical underdesk treadmill from Amazon at a great discount, it could be the perfect way to sneak some exercise into a busy day.
The Urevo Under Desk Treadmill is currently priced at £169.99 down from £199.99, saving a handy 15%. There are other colour options available too, like a fashionable and natural wood look, a black with green accents and one without, as well as an aesthetically sleek light grey.
One of the most unique features of this treadmill has to be the included app, as there’s no traditional control panel included. Although the app does come with a suite of handy features like customizing workouts, tracking progress and adjusting settings, there’s also an included remote control for those that would like to keep things simple.
The brand promises this treadmill’s extra silicone cushioning is “designed to absorb shock and deliver a smooth, comfortable experience”, the included motor is said to be nice and quiet, too. Inside the box, shoppers can expect a manual, power cord, remote control, tool kit, and lubricant so there’s everything shoppers need to keep their machine running smoothly.
As an alternative, shoppers after an integrated LCD display up top could check out the New Image Fitt Mill Smart Bluetooth Treadmill & Walking Pad from Currys, currently priced at £244 down from £299, saving a sizable £55. This treadmill even includes a Bluetooth speaker as well as a phone or tablet holder, along with the usual auto-stop safety systems and remote control, it folds up for easy storage with a max speed of 7.5km/h.
Otherwise, buyers after a bargain friendly deal could look at Argos’ Dynamax Running Pad 3.0 Treadmill, currently priced at £349 down from £549, saving a massive £200. There’s a host of premium features like the 12 incline levels and pre set programs, a massive running area measuring in at 120 by 46cm, and a max speed of 15km/h, there’s even a two year manufacturer’s guarantee.
Back to the Urevo Under Desk Treadmill 1-6 km/h, shoppers loved the unique features. One said: “The specific version I have is the Spacewalk One Lite. Been using [it] for around a month. Seems well made and sturdy. It is pretty small and light, so fairly easy to move and store. Has good functions, e.g. you can set a number of steps (or time or distance) and it will count down. It actually detects steps (unsure how), i.e. if you step off while it’s running it will stop counting the steps – which surprised me for a budget product.”
Another said: “Purchasing this treadmill has truly transformed my lifestyle. As a workaholic who spends long hours working from home, I used to suffer from back and waist pain due to prolonged sitting. But now, with this treadmill, I’m effortlessly incorporating healthy movement into my daily routine.”
A third added: “Great machine for walkers. Arrived very fast and the Bluetooth app is great to use instead of relying on the remote. Will come in handy for the Autumn and winter months with the incoming inclement weather. Thoroughly recommended for anyone wanting to stay fit or on a weight loss journey!”
Other shoppers felt differently however, for example the lack of a phone holder commonly found on other offerings. As part of a larger review, they said: “Only used it for one hour seems great, [the] app is better to control the speed as you can do it in .1 units instead of .5. Shame this model doesn’t have a hand rail thing to put your phone and stuff on. Takes a little while to get used to the width, and the plastic wood can damage easily if you knock it with your shoes.”
Another said: “I’ve not used this walking pad for long but I really like it, I purchased it so I could use it at an adjustable desk and change up my working day. It’s quiet, slightly lifted off the floor (so no burn/run marks on the carpet) and is much easier to store than the treadmills with arms. The only criticism for me is the controller slot on the pad itself has no way to secure/tuck away the wrist tie which is tempting for my pets to grab and chew! So it has to be stored elsewhere. Overall very pleased: slim, quiet, slightly raised, spot on.”
The Urevo Under Desk Treadmill 1-6 km/h can be found at Amazon.
