Who should pick which

Pick the WalkingPad C2 if

  • you will move it in and out of storage often. It weighs 55 lb against 81 lb.
  • you want to change speed without bending down to a console.
  • budget matters most. It sits in the mid-range tier.

Pick the WalkingPad X21 if

  • you weigh more than about 190 lb. It is rated for 240 lb against 220 lb, and we suggest 30 lb of headroom above your weight.
  • you drift sideways while you read or type. A 18.1-inch belt gives more room than 15.8 inches.
  • you also want to jog or run. It reaches 7.5 mph against 3.7 mph.
  • you want something to hold for balance, for example at faster speeds or on incline.

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.
