Under-Desk Office Treadmill Bases
An under desk treadmill base is a treadmill shorn of its arm rails and slid under a standing desk for walking at work. These devices come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and quality levels, and some are better able to handle the repetitive motion of walking than others.
While the DIY treadmill desk may have been the best option in the past for someone with a running treadmill collecting dust in the attic, the office fitness industry has now caught up with demand by offering a solid selection of under desk treadmill products, though not all of them are good and most of them won’t stick around for long.
Our roundup of all the walking treadmill bases we have reviewed also has a great amount of information that will help you choose what is best for your workstation.
