UREVO Strol 2E: problems, parts and running costs
Checked: 2026-10-22
Summary
The Strol 2E is a compact flat-deck under-desk treadmill whose main ownership cautions are fit and maintenance: the belt is 40.2 by 15 inches and cramped for tall runners, and UREVO requires lubrication every 125 miles, with motor heat and burning odor reported by owners of older UREVO 2-in-1 units. Recurring cost is lubricant and electricity, with no app subscription. It is strong value at or below about $200, fair between $200 and $280, and weak above $300, and it is not suitable for users over 265 lbs or runners over 6 ft tall. [1][5][6][8][10][13][14]
Common problems and fixes
- No incline — flat deck at every speed; buyers wanting incline need a different model. [1][5][8][10]
- Basic app — changes speed, tracks basic stats and offers two 30-minute guided workouts; connectivity issues reported by some users. [5][9][10]
- Handlebar and device holder — the handlebar must be tightened to avoid wobble at speed and the device holder bounces. [6]
- Motor heat and burning odor (caution) — reported by Reddit owners of older UREVO 2-in-1 units, not confirmed on the Strol 2E; the manufacturer FAQ points to lubrication and motor inspection. [13][14][4]
- Error codes E0, E7, E10 — tied to the safety-key magnet position. [4][14]
- Lubrication maintenance — required every 125 miles, with a reported learning curve. [4][7][9]
- Replacement parts uncertain — UREVO sells remotes, safety keys, power cords and handrail accessories, but belts, motors and decks are not documented; one owner claims UREVO sells no replacement parts. [1][16]
Parts and consumables
- Belts, motors and decks — availability not documented; one owner claims UREVO does not sell replacement parts. [16]
- No app subscription — the app is free. [5][10]
Yearly running cost
Recurring items are lubricant every 125 miles, electricity, and occasional replacement of a remote, safety key or power cord if lost; no app subscription is required. [1][4][5][10]
When it is a good buy
- $169.99 sale vs $289.99 compare-at (UREVO US site, checked 2026-10-22) — below the $200 strong-value line. [1]
- $199.99 (Top Trusted Products) and $189.99 (Pad & Pace, checked 2026-10-22) — also in the strong-value band. [10][8]
- $279.99 (Live Science, 2025-03) and £249 RRP (T3, 2024-08) — in the fair band. [5][6]
- At or below about $200 — strong value for desk walking plus occasional jogging: quiet, compact, cushioned, with a handle and a free app. [5][6][8][10]
- About $200-280 — fair; compare with the WalkingPad C2 (4 mph, 220 lbs, $429) and Egofit Walker Pro (incline, 3.1 mph). [10]
- Above about $300 — weak value; consider a full-size folding treadmill or a premium walking pad. [10]
- Not suitable for runners over 6 ft tall or users over 265 lbs. [5][6][8][10]
Named alternatives:
- WalkingPad C2 — 4 mph, 220 lb capacity, $429; better if you want a higher-priced walking pad with a different deck. [10]
- Egofit Walker Pro — incline at 3.1 mph; better if you need incline. [10]
- Strol 2E Pro — adds 12% incline; the better choice if incline matters, since the Strol 2E has none. [1]
