The WalkingPad X21 Treadmill is an extremely compact model. We recommend it for users who live in apartments and condos, on upper-level floors, and who have only a small amount of space. The X21 has a unique double-folding mechanism that allows this treadmill to be stored in a closet or pushed against a wall, out of the way.
The WalkingPad X21 is best for walking only, although users with shorter running strides will be able to lightly jog on the deck as well. The 1.0 HP brushless motor is quiet and moves the belt from 1 mph up to 7.5 mph. It’s fairly quiet, too.
What makes the X21 unique is its double-folding mechanism. The deck folds in half and then folds again at the top of the deck to sit upright under the console and uprights. It reminds me of a large briefcase when folded. This technology takes the deck from around 56” long to only 9” long when folded.
Something to be aware of is that the area in the deck that folds can be felt underfoot when using the WalkingPad X21. It is noticeable, especially if you’ve used a treadmill before, however with time, most will probably get used to it. We did, after using the X21 for a bit.
The console and uprights remain in place when the X21 is folded and unfolded. The console is also built into the handle to display metrics like your time, distance, and speed. The center adjustment dial is pretty intuitive to use for adjusting the treadmill. You can also download the KS Fit App for free to track your workouts and adjust the treadmill with your phone.
If you’re looking for a small walking treadmill that can be stored out of sight, this is one to consider.

I love how thorough and concise your reviews are! Could you do a top 10 for the best treadmills that are more compact for home settings? There's so many out there but it's hard to decide which one is reliable.
-
When you said this was light by comparison, I had to get a sense of how heavy treadmills were in comparison to the 90 lb plus this one weighs. And I did not have a sense of how HP contributed to using this at its max speed for too long. This is a pretty thorough review. I appreciate the information here.

When running at high speed, it is difficult to control the rotation of the control knob to increase or decrease the speed exactly as desired. Very dangerous. Better if it has a handheld remote. But this product does not have a remote control, it is not designed according to this model. The phone app is also difficult to control and sometimes doesn't connect well
-
Thank you for the review, it helped me make up my mind about buying this treadmill, since I've been looking for a folding one for light/moderate use that wasn't too expensive.
-
Can you use this on wood floor without using mat underneath?
-
I LOVE the simple, clean look of this! Do you like this as much as some of the other brands of walking/light running treadmill pads? I was also considering the Urevo 3-in1 as well as the Lifespan (but I wish it had a front folding handle!).....thoughts?
-
Great review. Very helpful. Thank you very much.
-
How durable is it? Has anyone got long term experience? Any information about durability and quality is highly appreciated. Thanks! 👍
-
They seem to sell an X23 model in some places, but I can’t see what was changed.
-
I was getting shocks from the 2 screws under the handle. I sent it back.
-
Great review. Very helpful, thanks 😊
-
Thank you for the review. I have a maintenance question. How often do you fold the treadmill? Is there a chance to break the mechanism if it is too often (twice a day for example)?
-
Is it still worth getting this one? Debating over R2. Which do you recommend? I prefer to use at standing desk and be able to run at the max speed when not at the desk. Assuming X21 can still go under the desk even the bar doesn't goes down. Is there better folding treadmill over those two model?
-
This review was really helpful, thanks a lot! Will you consider reviewing a Kingsmith K15 treadmill? That's quite interesting model, also foldable and with build-in 4% incline(you can't change it, but as for me, for a foldable and relatively compact treadmill that's an amazing feature)
-
I like the comparison with the heights, that's the case with my wife and I 😃
-
Thanks for the review!!
-
Hello, can you grab the frontal bar while walking?
-
Anything similar to this that you can jog and run without burning the motor?
-
My wife and I are looking for a small foldable treadmill, and this seems perfect for our apartment. But, she will primarily be walking while I would like to run. For how long would you recommend to use this at max speed? I guess I will be running for about 30 minutes 2-3 times during the week. I am 5,7 and not that heavy. Thanks in advance.
-
Can it handle me running 3 times a week for about 30 minutes? My weight is 230 lb and height is 5 feet 8½ inches
