# Best 2-in-1 walking and running pads Source: https://deckandstride.co.uk/best/best-walking-and-running-pads Publisher: Deck and Stride. Picks are based on what the Amazon listings state, not on hands-on testing. Method: https://deckandstride.co.uk/how-we-pick A 2-in-1 pad sits between a walking pad and a full treadmill. With the handrail folded down it slides under a desk for slow walking; lift the rail and it unlocks faster speeds for jogging or running, usually up to 10 or 12 km/h. The trade-off is that most still use a walking pad deck, so the belt is shorter than on a full running treadmill. This guide compares 2-in-1 pads on top speed, belt size, motor, maximum user weight and the type of handrail, taken from each listing. If a listing does not give the belt size or weight limit, we note it, as both matter once you start running. Picks are ordered by how well each one handles both jobs, desk walking and short runs. ## Products ### 1. 7.5 MPH Treadmills for Home Foldable, 5-in-1 Walking Pad with 10% Incline Noise: Under 40 dB; Motor: 2.75 HP brushless; Speed: 1 to 12 km/h; Max user: 160 kg; Belt: 100 x 40 cm A pad with a fold-down handle that covers desk walking through to running at 12 km/h.
