Who should pick which

Pick the DeerRun A6 Plus if

  • you also want to jog or run. It reaches 7.5 mph against 4 mph.
  • you want something to hold for balance, for example at faster speeds or on incline.
  • budget matters most. It sits in the budget tier.

Pick the Merach W50 if

  • you weigh more than about 270 lb. It is rated for 400 lb against 300 lb, and we suggest 30 lb of headroom above your weight.

Our buying guides

How these pages are built

Every figure comes from the maker's product page, manual or the Amazon listing, and we only include models with a live, in-stock Amazon listing we checked ourselves. When sources disagree on a weight limit we use the lowest number. We do not test these machines ourselves.

Height fit starts from a typical walking step of 0.41 times your height (0.45 when walking briskly), adds 12 inches for your shoe, and 6 more inches of room to drift for a comfortable fit. These are rough guides, not measurements of you. Weight fit leaves 30 lb of headroom above your body weight.
