Pros
- Wirecutter's top pick after testing multiple under-desk models
- Reaches up to 7.5 mph — significantly faster than most under-desk competitors
- 2-in-1 design folds flat for easy storage under a desk or bed
- Handles both walking and light jogging unlike most under-desk options
- 12 mph top speed with both incline and decline options
- 16-inch pivoting touchscreen with iFIT access to 10,000+ workouts
- Speed and incline dials make interval adjustments easy mid-run
- Consistently top-ranked by both Reddit communities and expert reviewers
Cons
- Weighs 70 pounds — the heaviest model Wirecutter tested, making it hard to move
- Not designed for serious running or long-distance training
- Durability concerns noted — may not hold up as well as full-size treadmills long-term
- Requires iFIT subscription ($15–$40/month) to unlock most workout content
- NordicTrack has a mixed reputation for long-term reliability and customer service
- Large footprint — not ideal for small spaces
Our take
For remote workers who want to move during the day without a dedicated workout space, the Goplus is the clear winner — Wirecutter tested the category thoroughly and this one stood above the rest on speed, stability, and usability.
If you want one treadmill that satisfies runners, walkers, and fitness streamers without breaking the bank, the 1750 is the answer — it's the most mentioned model on Reddit by a wide margin and Wirecutter's top pick after testing 37 machines.
