Unsit™ Under Desk Treadmill

Bought a $350 treadmill off Amazon and it broke down after six months of using it 3-4 hours day. So bought another brand around that price point, and it also broke down within a few months. Continuing to buy cheaper treadmills seemed wasteful both from a financial and materials standpoint (treadmills are a big thing to throw away and send to the dump), so I decided to invest in a nicer treadmill that's made to last and take hours of daily use. The Unsit seemed like the only treadmill out there that fit the bill.

I've only had it a couple months, so I can't yet speak to its longevity. But I can speak to several of its flaws.

First, it doesn't tell you how fast you're going. To increase or decrease your speed, you turn a dial, which looks like a technology out of 1999, which only shows unlabeled hash marks. It does not tell you your mph. There is also, inexplicably, no read-out/display that shows how long you've been walking or have far you've walked. This seems like the most basic of basic features to include on a treadmill; in fact, I didn't even bother looking to see if it had this display before purchasing the treadmill, because I figured if a $300 treadmill had that feature, surely a $2500 treadmill would. Maybe this kind of data is available on the (seemingly much maligned) app, but I have no interest in using an app to see how long I've been walking on a treadmill. In fact I have no interest in using an app to use a treadmill in general.

Another flaw is the fact that the belt stops automatically as soon as you step off the treadmill. This is highly annoying. What it means in practice is that if I want to step off the treadmill to, say, talk to someone for a minute, or to grab a pencil off a table a few feet away, I have to let the treadmill belt stop, and then press the start button again, and then wait for it to get back up to speed once I hop back on. You should, as with every other treadmill I ever used in my life, be able to jump on and off the treadmill while keeping the belt running.

Other than these flaws, the treadmill seems smooth and sturdy, and if it does in fact last for years without burning out and breaking down, then that will outweigh these head-scratching design choices and the purchase will have been worth it. Here's hoping!

I ordered the treadmill + desk combo and WOW!!! I cannot say enough good things! I researched treadmill desks for months before pulling the trigger, and I have ZERO buyer's remorse. The packaging upon delivery was phenomenal, the quality of the product (treadmill and desk) is exceptional, sturdy, and sleek (you get what you pay for), the customer service team is responsive and helpful, and the product is a game-changer for my working style, health, and concentration. I love the extra treadmill width provided by Unsit and definitely make use of it frequently. My biggest hesitancy before purchasing was the max speed of 2pmh, especially when purchasing a premium product and noting there are competitor treadmills that go up to 4pmh. BUT, I can now confidently say that if I were walking faster, my productivity would decline. So in the end, I think the 2pmh speed is perfect and even helps the motor last longer. IF I had to make a constructive criticism (nobody's perfect, right??), the app and synchronization with my iPhone and Apple Watch is not intuitive / poor quality / does not really work. However, I think the InMovement team already knows this and is releasing a much-needed app update soon. I also wish the Apple Watch or Fitbit could somehow track treadmill desk workouts, but it's challenging since your arms don't move enough. Also, one picky thing, but it would be nice if the accompanying desk had integrated outlets or a place for a docking station, but you can of course pair the treadmill with any wide-enough standing desk you like. Overall, this is one of the best purchases I've made, and I am so excited for many, many steps and miles ahead. Thank you to the InMovement team for an awesome product! I've been spreading the word to everyone I know ;)

I almost purchased a cheaper walking pad/treadmill, but I was discouraged by the narrow treads on them. Because of this, I reluctantly purchased the Unsit Under Desk Treadmill. I was reluctant because of the high price. I am so glad I did. I wanted something that was well made with a large walking surface area. This accomplishes that in every way. I have walked and worked about 3-4 miles per day for the past 3 weeks. I am getting use to the walking/typing. It's not bad once you do it for about 1 week. As an attorney I type a lot. This was a concern of mine, but it's doable.

Get this treadmill. Take care of your health. It's well made, stable and large. I highly recommend and am considering getting one for my home office too.

While the treadmill is quiet, I didn't realize the top speed was 2.0. I would like a refund on my "White Glove" delivery because it was a hot mess. I had to call numerous times after only receiving the treadmill and not the desk. No one from- your company called me back. When they finally delivered the desk, they didn't even complete the installation. Filthy, dirty handprints were left on the white desk, which I had to scrub clean. Please refund my credit card for the amount of the "White Glove" service. Thank you, Pat C

Great product! Wish there is something that can help with having a comfortable position for hands moving mouse and having staff not see me move. Other than that great product. I will be recommending to our organization
