Who should pick which

Pick the Horizon 7.4 AT if

  • you are tall or walk briskly. Its 60-inch belt suits walkers up to about 9'9" at slow desk pace (8'6" with 6 inches of room to drift), and up to about 7'9" for brisk walking, against 5'11" at slow desk pace on the 41.3-inch belt.
  • you drift sideways while you read or type. A 22-inch belt gives more room than 16.5 inches.
  • storage space is tight. It folds (Yes); the other one does not fold its deck.
  • you also want to jog or run. It reaches 12 mph against 4 mph.
  • you want something to hold for balance, for example at faster speeds or on incline.

Pick the Merach UltraWalk W60 (Plus) if

  • you weigh more than about 320 lb. It is rated for 400 lb against 350 lb, and we suggest 30 lb of headroom above your weight.
  • you want to change speed without bending down to a console.
  • budget matters most. It sits in the mid-range tier.

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.
