I've been considering buying a small folding treadmill. Apparently very popular now are Walking Pads which are much smaller and used by people working from home which enables them to stand with their laptop higher up and exercise.
Does anyone have any experience of these ? Just wondering if they are safe as I'm not always that stable.

I bought one which was about £100. It is really good and my daughter uses it a lot. I aim to use it more once my husband doesn’t need me so much when and if he improves from his stroke.

It is not too very heavy and my niece has one which she stores behind a door. She uses hers a lot.
