    Garage Gym ReviewsHands-on review · 2024

    A compact, easy-to-assemble treadmill that folds flat and suits walkers and casual joggers, but its motor and short deck do not suit heavy or tall runners.

    A good, fairly affordable and durable home treadmill that is especially suited to small spaces thanks to its easy auto-fold.

    TechRadarNo printed score · Hands-on review

    A good fit for beginner and intermediate runners with little space thanks to its clever folding and simple controls, though the app is costly and the motor and deck limit serious runners.

    The reviewer finds the Stride simple, stable and easy to store, with a large class library through the app, and feels it justifies its price.

    Runner's World UKNo printed score · Hands-on review

    A capable, stable folding treadmill with lively classes, but the reviewer ran into repeated connection hassles, limited app compatibility and a high combined cost.

    CoachNo printed score · Hands-on review

    The reviewer likes the flat fold and engaging classes but finds the price, weak specs and costly subscription hard to justify when cheaper treadmills perform as well.
