Both walking pads and treadmills have a moving belt that lets you walk or run indoors. However, walking pads are generally more compact and portable with lower speed settings. They also typically lack handrails, making them a better option for light walking rather than intense running or sprinting, as you'd do on a traditional treadmill.
Unlike full-size treadmills, walking pads aren't designed to move super fast. Most options max out around 4 mph, so they're best for those looking to get some additional steps in during the day—not train for an upcoming race.
Yes—some walking pads function close to a treadmill. For instance, the WalkingPad R1 Pro and WalkingPad R2 can reach speeds of over 6 mph for running. That said, most basic walking pads do not reach speeds high enough for you to run on, and it can be dangerous to do so on a machine that doesn't have handrails. If you're more interested in a dedicated running machine, there are plenty of deals on treadmills right now.
The best walking pad will depend on your budget and preferred features, such as desired incline, speed and size. Our gear editors recommend the GoPlus 2-In-1 Treadmill because it's quiet, compact and can go faster than most models. If you're looking for a budget-friendly option, Forbes Vetted staffers also recommend the Urevo SpaceWalk Lite, which is currently on sale.
Walking outside or on a walking pad are both great ways to get active. Walking pads help you get low-impact steps in from your home or office, acting as a suitable alternative for moments you can't leave the house. Walking outside has varied environmental terrain which can intensify the workout.
The amount of weight a walking pad can support depends on the model, but most can handle between 220 to 250 pounds. That said, some walking pads can support up to 400 pounds, while certain compact models are designed to support less than the average weight range. Be sure to check the product specifications before making your purchase.
