Stay active throughout the day with Walking Pads, the compact and convenient solution for home or office fitness. Our collection of cheap walking pads includes under-desk and foldable options ideal for walking while you work or during downtime. Pair your pad with treadmills, vibrating platforms or resistance bands to create a balanced routine. Factory Buys is loved across Australia for great value, quality products and fast delivery.

Why choose a walking pad

A cheap walking pad offers a practical way to stay active without needing a full gym setup. Designed for small spaces, these slim treadmills can slide under your desk or bed when not in use. They are perfect for improving step count, circulation and focus during work hours or relaxing evenings at home.

Many models feature remote controls, digital displays and speed adjustments for comfort and convenience. Pair your walking pad with weights or a weight bench to add light strength training to your daily routine.

Combining activity and recovery

Consistency is key to maintaining long-term health. Use your walking pad alongside ellipticals or rowing machines for more intensive workouts when time allows. After use, aid recovery with massage guns or a foot and leg massager to help relax muscles and improve circulation.

To boost mobility and posture, include stretching sessions using yoga accessories before and after walking. This combination of movement and recovery supports an active, balanced lifestyle.

Types of Walking Pads

  • Minimal speed range, perfect for walking while working.

  • Lightweight build for easy portability.

Who They're For:

  • People who want to add movement into their workday.

  • Individuals with limited space or budget.

  • Foldable deck for compact storage.

  • Durable hinges and mechanisms to ensure stability during use.

  • Often includes wheels for easy movement.

Who They're For:

  • Collapsible handrails for dual functionality.

  • Wider speed range, suitable for both walking and light jogging.

  • Sturdy build to support a variety of activities.

Tips for Safe and Effective Use

  • Start Slow

Begin with slow speeds and get used to the pad first, especially when you’re multi-tasking with a computer. You can gradually increase the speed as you go. 

  • Proper Posture

To avoid neck strain, make sure your desk is at an appropriate height once you’re on the walking pad. Keep your shoulders relaxed and head up. 

  • Wear Appropriate Footwear

To avoid injuries, ensure that you’re always wearing comfortable walking shoes to prevent slipping. 

  • Take Breaks

Alternate between walking and standing to avoid fatigue or overuse. 

Maintenance & Cleaning

  • Dust the walking pad’s surface and edges to prevent debris buildup. The buildup could potentially interfere with the motor or belt.

  • Wipe down the belt and walking surface with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt. Avoid using too much water on the pad.

  • Regularly check the belt, motor, and power cord for signs of wear or damage and address issues promptly.

  • Stay within the weight limit to prevent undue strain on the motor.

  • If not in use, fold (if foldable) and store the walking pad in a dry, cool place to avoid moisture damage.

  • Make sure to follow the user manual for cleaning and maintenance schedules to ensure longevity.

What Do I Need to Consider When Purchasing a Walking Pad

Before buying a walking pad, here are a few features to look out for:

  • Size: Make sure you’re choosing something that will comfortably fit under your desk, and make sure you’re stepping safe. 

  • Motor: Choose one with a quiet motor to ensure that you can have silence when you’re working. 

  • Portability: Ensure you find a walking pad that will allow you to fold it up quickly and store it with ease.

What Brand of Walking Pads Does Factory Buys Sell

Factory Buys stocks Everfit electric walking pads. These under-desk treadmills are the perfect companions if you’re looking for a pad that is quiet, portable and will help you get your steps in every day. 

What Size Treadmill Will Fit Under a Desk

Here are a few things to look out for when selecting the right-sized treadmill for your desk:

  • Compact Dimensions: Make sure the pad’s length and width fit properly underneath your desk without getting in the way of your workspace and chair. 

  • Deck Height: Choose a walking pad with a low profile to ensure that you can maintain proper posture without needing to raise your desk height excessively. 

  • Stride Length: This might be obvious, but it can sometimes be forgotten when placing orders online - always ensure the walking surface is long enough to accommodate your natural stride, especially if you have a taller height.

Are Walking Pads Good for You?

Walking pads are highly beneficial for overall health and your movement goals. Regularly using them is known to: 

  • Improve Physical Health: Walking pads encourage you to move more often, thus improving cardiovascular health, helping you burn calories and reducing risks associated with being sedentary. 

  • Reduces Postural Issues: Instead of being hunched over a desk, you can enjoy a slow-paced walk that will keep your spine in check while you work. 

  • Boosts Mental Well-Being: Exercise, in general, is known to do this, and even at slow paces with a walking pad, you get your blood flowing and release endorphins as you work.

What’s the Difference Between a Treadmill and a Walking Pad?

Treadmills are larger, more multi-functional machines designed for walking and running. They offer higher speed ranges and other features like incline settings and built-in workout programs. Treadmills are known to be bulkier, less portable and are suited for more strenuous exercise sessions. 


Walking pads, on the other hand, are compact and specifically designed to walk at lower speeds. Perfect to put underneath your desk, they are meant for light activity while you work. They do not support running at higher speeds and do not have incline settings. Walking pads are generally portable and foldable, making them perfect to easily stash away. 

What Other Types of Exercise Equipment Does Factory Buys Sell?

Factory Buys has a dedicated exercise equipment selection that includes cardio, resistance, and strength training equipment. We also have a range of items suited for recovery post-exercise, such as yoga accessories and massage chairs. Explore the full collection today to build your very own gym setup. 

How Loud Is the Walking Pad?

Walking pads are generally designed to operate quietly, with noise levels typically ranging between 45 to 60 decibels (similar to a quiet conversation or background noise in a library). The exact noise level depends on factors like the motor quality, belt material, and speed settings. Always check these specifications before purchase, and if you have any questions, feel free to get in touch with our friendly customer service team to learn more. 

How Hard Is It to Setup the Walking Pad?

It’s extremely easy and should take you about 20 minutes in total. Every one of our walking pads comes with an easy-to-read and understood product manual that will help you get started in no time.
