Don’t trip over this deal.
The challenge with finding sleek workout equipment that still delivers a real workout is that some designs are simply too compact, especially with under-desk treadmills. I’ve tried a few myself, and some models are so narrow and short that it’s hard to fit in a proper stride and stay balanced.
But one design on Amazon has racked up more positive reviews from users who say they still have “plenty of room” on the 16.5 x 41-inch belt for their feet and longer strides. And, this specific model from the reputable MERARCH Fitness brand is currently on sale for almost $200 off.
“It seems well built, very sturdy and quiet… The remote is easy to use and you can toggle through different speeds and incline levels while walking with no problems,” one shared. “I have no trouble using my normal stride when walking, so the treadmill’s length is good.”
And despite the larger belt, it’s still easy to move thanks to industrial-grade wheels and a compact 55-inch frame that fits in most apartment spaces.
According to the brand, the spacious16.5″-wide running belt isn’t just for added comfort — it also “ensures stable footing with enhanced safety” compared to standard 13.8″ models.
The machine also features a 12% auto-incline and 4.0 MPH speed limits for a more challenging workout, along with a 3.5HP super-quiet brushless motor so you can train without the distracting buzz.
It’s heavy-duty construction supports up to a 400-pound weight capacity, while the diamond-textured, non-slip surface adds extra stability for faster sprints.
