Goplus Walking Pad Under Desk Treadmill: Review, Pros & Cons

Summary

A budget flat walking pad for under a desk, with a 2.25HP motor, a 0.5-4 mph range and a 265 lb capacity, sold direct by the manufacturer. It is for walking while you work rather than running, and the 90-day warranty is the main thing to weigh before buying.

Strengths

Direct from the manufacturer it is $139.99 against a claimed $179.99 compare-at, and one review cites about $149.99.
A slim 5-inch profile and 41 lb weight make it easy to slide under a desk or couch.
Setup is installation-free, with a watch-style remote and 12 preset programs.
The 7-layer belt uses 14 cushioning elements, which softens the walk.
Owner reports describe quiet operation for calls and simple day-to-day use.

Weaknesses

The manufacturer’s own page states only a 90-day warranty, short for fitness equipment.
The 4 mph ceiling and the lack of an incline rule out running.
The 40 x 16 in belt can feel short for tall users and long strides.
Budget walking pads draw motor-durability cautions, including a cited warning that motors burn out after 3 months.
Carpet use is not recommended; it needs a hard, level surface or a treadmill mat.
The maker page showed the unit sold out under clearance terms with no returns or exchanges.

Full research notes and sources

Where it fits

This is a light-duty desk walker, not a gym treadmill. The maker specs 2.25HP, 0.5-4 MPH, 265 lb capacity and a 40 x 16 in belt on a 41 lb frame; the desk-work pace most owners settle on is roughly 1-2 mph for typing. There is no incline, and the 4 mph ceiling means walking and light jogging only. The manufacturer page claims under 50 dB, though no independent measurement was found, so treat the noise claim as manufacturer copy.

The 2024 revision of the flat-pad line used a different set of numbers (0.6-3.8 MPH, a 38.5 x 16 in walking area, a 6-inch profile and a manual incline via front foot pads). The current revision is 0.5-4 MPH with a 40 x 16 in belt and a 5-inch profile and no incline, so match the listing to the revision before you buy.

Warranty and durability

The exact-model warranty is confirmed at 90 days on the manufacturer’s own product page. Community signals are budget-class: a Reddit comment warns that low-cost walking-pad motors burn out after 3 months, and a brand-level r/treadmills thread flags a high 1-star ratio for GoPlus walking products and a walk mode limited to 2.5 mph, though that comment concerns the handrail model. These are cautions, not a failure rate.

Maintenance is simple but real: lubricate the belt periodically with the included silicone, keep it on a hard level surface or a treadmill mat, and keep the belt clean.

Is it worth it?

At about $140-150 it is a small, quiet walker with a decent feature set and only a 90-day warranty. Value is best for desk workers who walk 1-2 mph while working, for small spaces, and for buyers who accept budget-class durability. Above about $200 there are longer-warranty options, such as the GoYouth 2 in 1 with a 1-year warranty. The differentiator against the handrail 2 in 1 sibling is simplicity and weight (41 lb against roughly 70 lb), not speed or warranty.

Which model this is

This page covers the flat Goplus Walking Pad with no handrail. The better-known Goplus 2 in 1 Under-Desk Treadmill is a different machine, with a collapsible handrail, a 7.5 mph top speed and roughly 70 lb of weight. The US listing is ASIN B0DNB3Y417.
