Top Walking Pads for Under-Desk Steps (2026)

Best for: Anyone who wants a quiet pad that looks good in a living space

TechRadar's best under-desk treadmill overall. The wood-grain finish looks less like gym gear, it is light enough to move between a desk and the TV, and it is quiet enough for calls.

Skip it if: You want to jog on it

Tom's Guide's pick if you specifically want the WalkingPad brand. It folds in half for storage and passed a 90-day test, and it replaced the P1 as the best-value WalkingPad because it has a display.

Skip it if: You are quite tall or need a higher weight limit

Tom's Guide likes that it is affordable, plugs in right out of the box and has a small handlebar for support when you are not at a standing desk.

Skip it if: You're tall, the narrow belt caught the tester's foot on the side panels
