ICYMI, you can check out my full review and workday walk play-by-play here , but I'll cut to the chase. Here is what sets this folding walking pad apart from the rest.

• Size and storage functionality : The main attraction of this walking pad was its ability to fold and store away easily. I spent a lot of time researching low-profile, high-performance walking pads that can be easily moved around and kept out of sight. It lives folded up next to my desk when I'm not using it.
• Simple setup : The walking pad came fully assembled, so I had it up and running within five minutes of delivery. Simply plug it in, unfold it, and go. However, it may not be the best option for those who are not super tech-savvy, as you need to download the app to operate and control the treadmill (although there is a handy remote control).
• Safety features : I'm naturally a klutz, so I'm a fan of the auto-stop feature that helps to keep me safe.
• App : The KS Fit app helps you control the walking pad and displays your walking stats, including time, speed, steps, and mileage. There are two modes: manual and automatic. The automatic mode allows you to control your walking speed using your feet, whereas the manual mode requires setting a specific mph.
• Comfort : The walking pad features an EVA layer that provides extra cushioning. I've had no issues with comfort as long as I'm wearing a pair of sneakers .
• Noise level : Aside from the size and 180-degree folding capability, noise was the main thing I was concerned about. While it is not silent, and I did put the walking pad on top of my rug, it is relatively quiet. You can also purchase a pad to put below the walking pad to reduce noise.

Some drawbacks include the somewhat hefty price tag. While I'm sure there are more affordable versions, I felt safe and supported, plus I scored a major discount at the time of purchase.
