The product is very cool and hoping to see how it improves my work/life balance. The app was terrible and unusable.

I'd rate this higher, but the remote doesn't work (and I have replaced the battery twice - though I've only had this a few months), and the app... well - it leaves as lot to be desired (it also really needs some English proof reading).
I really wish this synced better with my Garmin. Right now I have to use it as an input to Apple Health, then THOSE steps are what populates Noom.
I was happy to find a small treadmill for use in the snowy, icy Minnesota winter. I can fold it up and put it away in the summer, but also fairly easily bring it out when I want. It works as advertised and I am happy I purchased it.
However, do note that the app and the remote are not user-friendly. The app is in such broken English it's unusable. The buttons 3 of the buttons on the 5-button remote are duplicative and the start button isn't even labeled. The tread gets off course very easily (like just stepping on and off it) and fixing it is quite the chore done with an allen wrench. It's also way heavier than the videos on the site led on. It's over 50 pounds and even with the wheels quite the workout for this middle age, semi-fit woman to move. Because the videos made it look like even a very slight woman could move it, I didn't bother looking at the weight. The folded height is quite tall and I doubt it would fit under any couch, so please take note of all the dimensions.
Super easy to install and start using. It is slim and takes up little space. It is heavy to fold and move around and the front wheels are not that great working on hard flooring. I use mine all day, sometimes just for standing. A couple of times it has gone into Automation mode, which doesn't appear to work, when I want it to, but rather unexpectedly when I was not aware I wanted to start walking. Only had it for a week so I am sure they will work themselves out as I get more familiar with the tool.
i love it! but after a week or two of using it there is a noticeable clicking/plastic sound that happens when you step near the area that folds and it makes it feel cheap or like its broken when its not and its really loud. If you walk closer to the front or the back of the pad you wont hear it but the middle part is so loud and annoying. its like a mechanical bang impact from your steps.
The product was exactly as pictured. It arrived well packaged and quickly. It was a simple installation and works great. I use it under a desk to get excersize throughout the day. I mainly use the manual mode. It folds nicely --- it is a bit heavier than I realized, but the quality is great !
