This is an excellent review. 1. When you're walking/jogging near the front of the belt, do your toes/feet sometimes hit the powerbox/display of the treadmill? 2. What kind of warranty does it come with? 3. Aside from its app, can the info displayed on the treadmill be input into Apple's Health app? 4. Did it come with lubrication? 5. Can this be used on carpet? 6. Have you ever contacted customer support and were they helpful and friendly? 7. When the treadmill reaches the end of its life, will it be easy to recycle? Thanks.
Great review of the Kingsmith Walking Pad R2! I'm from India and just ordered one for 50,000 rupees. It's arriving next week, and I'm excited to use it for my long WFH hours. My main concern is post-purchase support. Since you've had the treadmill for about 2 years now: Have you ever needed to contact customer support? Do you have any contact information for them? How is the treadmill holding up with regular use? I noticed you mentioned not using it heavily, but I plan to use it quite a bit. Any insights on durability and support would be really helpful. Thanks for your detailed review!
It's used almost every day. Had no reason to contact customer services. I've had to lubricate the belt myself and adjusted the belt manually also. Other than that no issues
Thanks mate for the demo and review, it has been a while you had this now, are you still happy as I am considering to buy, your input will help. Thank you
It's been good. Went through a period of no use and now being used again. I have had two incidences of cut outs. Code indicates this is a power surge protection. Not sure if that was a fault from the machine or my power outlet as the machine is being run off an extension cord. I've had no cause for aftercare
For the price point yes although as a walking pad. The ability to run is great addition but I'm not sure how durable it would be long term if you were heavier than i am. I walk on it for 1hr 2 to 3 x per week.
@@functionalwarriorworkouts2368 Thanks for replying to all the questions still now! I appreciated the early review and read all your follow up in the comments 😌
Awesome review!! Do you know if it connects to a smartphone, and if so, have you used this app? Is it good? Do you know if it counts steps? Thanks, and sorry about all of the questions..
Wow such a detailed unboxing review. Thank you. Could you please comment on the width? Do you sometimes accidentally touch the sides because of 17 inches width belt size? Or is it comfortable enough? I plan to buy this mainly for walking while using the desk. Also, unfortunately I am obese. I do not plan to run on it, but would like to walk. You think it would be fine? I am currently running comfortably on a 21 inch belt size width treadmill.
Thanks for watching. Never had an issue with the width. I think the maximum weight it can take is 110kg. My guess is anything over this would prevent the belt moving freely.
Hello. Thank you for the great review. I was looking at the different Xiaomi walking pads and might just by one. but want to look at some reviews first. I have a couple of questions :) 1. I can see that they are all called Kingsmith. Is your model the R2? (it looks like it) 2. What do you fell about the length and the width of the pad when walking and running? i am afraid of buying it just to find that i keeps faling of when i walk and watch movies on the television :D 3. What is your experience after have used it for a couple of days?
Hi. Yeah i'm pretty impressed overall. 1. It is the R2 2. I find both to be good. Haven't had any issues with either. I have a fairly narrow stance but can't see it being a problem unless you were very overweight or just large.. But there is a weight limit. 3. Like i said. very happy. You can actually use a hack to set the pace faster than 3 with the bar down but i haven't felt the need. One issue you might have is the size of tablet use use if watching movies. I have a 7in tablet which fits perfectly but that it. otherwise you would be in portrait mode which would be poor.
@@functionalwarriorworkouts2368 thanks for a great review! can you share what the hack is to increase speed while bar is down please? thanks in advance!
No real issues. A couple of times it's cut out mid walk but the error code referred to a power surge so not sure if it's the treadmill or my power outlet. I've also had to realign the belt which you can do yourself.
After seeing the marks it has left on the gym mat I am worried, I have a wooden floor. Do you think that with a thick carpet there won't be any problem? Thanks! super useful review!
I have the older version of this machine which has been used 3x a week mainly at 8.5km for over 2 years without issue, Just remember to oil the board monthly,
Hi, all are 8-feet pads adjustable? or are just the 4 ones on the foldable side? I got the treadmill once and had already returned it because one of the pads on the folding side was stuck and not rotating for height adjustment, I just got a replacement now but I wonder if all 8 feet have to be adjustable?
Hello, Two questions if you don't mind: - You noted that the maximum weight tolerance was 110 Kilograms. Would this be ok to use at around 114 Kilograms ? - You mentioned that it got a little warm after a couple of minutes use. How would the belt handle sweat ? I live in a pretty warm & humid place in the summer, and I wouldn't want to turn this into a stink bomb . Walking or running shoes would be the solution there, right ? Thanks for the review . Hope your machine hangs on to hanging on ... ! :)
Hi. I'm sure it won't fall apart with an extra 4kg but I imagine it will increase the friction and wear and tear faster over time. They also provide some silicone lubricant which you might need to use more frequently. Hard to say about sweat and humidity.
Hey there. Do you still recommend this? Also do you think walking two hours per day would overheat it? I've read it in some review. Also can you share how often and for how long do you use it per day?
Great review. Probably the first non-sales oriented review with real-life conditions taken into account.
Somebody opened the owners manual. Best review of this device.
Hi, thanks for the review! Now a year later how is it holding up? Do you still like it?
The walking function (handlebar down) is so that you can put it under a standing desk so you can walk and work 👍
I guess you could do that but i think keeping straight and not touching the sides would be difficult.
@@functionalwarriorworkouts2368 Actually really easy. The standing desk more or less replaces the handle bar.
Fantastic review. Thank you! I’m based in Malaysia. My wife and I will definitely be picking one of these up for the apartment.
This is an excellent review.

Thanks.
1. Occasionally
2. Not 100% sure
3. No
4. Yes
5. Thin pile only
6. No
7. Unknown
Good questions @vidform
1year later are you still using it please? Thx
Yes. Still using. Once or twice a week after a break for a few months

Still happy with it. Used a lot
How has it been after a few months? After a year? Do they have aftersales support?
It's been good. Went through a period of no use and now being used again. I have had two incidences of cut outs. Code indicates this is a power surge protection. Not sure if that was a fault from the machine or my power outlet as the machine is being run off an extension cord. I've had no cause for aftercare
Can you store this vertically? I'd like to store it next to a standing desk. Great video, thanks for checking it out and the content!
Hi. Thanks for the support. Yes you can store it vertically.
so after a year, do you recommend it?
For the price point yes although as a walking pad. The ability to run is great addition but I'm not sure how durable it would be long term if you were heavier than i am. I walk on it for 1hr 2 to 3 x per week.
@@functionalwarriorworkouts2368 Thanks for replying to all the questions still now! I appreciated the early review and read all your follow up in the comments 😌
I wonder the noise picked up from downstairs. Don't want to be a hassle to anyone
Do you feel the gap in the middle?
Not really as you walk towards the front of the gap
You have an amazing apartment view and light decorations. You remind me a lot of Frank Grillo.
Really good review! i just have a small question: how is it working after a year from your review?
It's still good although it hasn't had heavy use.
@@functionalwarriorworkouts2368how about now? Is it still doing good?
Awesome review!! Do you know if it connects to a smartphone, and if so, have you used this app? Is it good? Do you know if it counts steps?
Thanks, and sorry about all of the questions..
Hello! Does this have an incline option?
Nope
Great review.. especially as you are used to working with treadmills..

Hello! Is it still working?
Yes
Which is best walking pad R2 or X21
Is it safe use it without shoes?
It is safe walking but I wouldn't recommend unless you're used to walking barefoot. Running is much harder on the foot.
a simple great review. good one mate
Any update?
Still going strong.
How does it compare to the king smith x21?
Never used it.
What's your weight mate?
Which model is this, X21?
If I wanted to use this at a walking speed for 4-6 hours a day while working, do you think it could manage?
No, max use is only 1hr. You need to rest it 30min or more
All DC motor = 1 hrs
AC motor = unlimited time
Thinking of buying one of these can you still recommend this walking pad or have you had problems with it.
No issues. Still working
@@functionalwarriorworkouts2368 just bought one ....must admit I am well impressed.....I had the 002 error but turned it off and back on and all ok.

What model is this Kingsmith? x23? x21?
Hi. It's the R2 as expressed on the thumbnail. I'll update the text explanation to avoid confusion.
any review after a year of use?
No real issues. A couple of times it's cut out mid walk but the error code referred to a power surge so not sure if it's the treadmill or my power outlet. I've also had to realign the belt which you can do yourself.
I can't change maximum speed. The limit is on 6km/ hour. Do you have any idea how i can change the set up?
هل استطعت حل المشكلة؟
Can you turn off the automatic speed adjustement?
Yes. There is a remote for manual control. I don't use the auto setting
After seeing the marks it has left on the gym mat I am worried, I have a wooden floor.
Do you think that with a thick carpet there won't be any problem?
Thanks! super useful review!
I would buy something to out under it to lift it away from the carpet. There are 6 or 8 feet total. Some hard wood coasters might do the job.
It is still holding up for you? Any issues so far?
I have the older version of this machine which has been used 3x a week mainly at 8.5km for over 2 years without issue, Just remember to oil the board monthly,
Great review thank you. Are you guys still using this? Is it working?
Still working.

Yes i recommend. Not sure about that length of time. I suspect you would need to keep on top of the silicone lubrication.
Not great costumer service and warranty issues in UK.These tend to give up after couple months of use.Overpriced!
Is the bar (hip height) removable?
I don't think so but for walking you it can rest flat on the floor so there is no bar.
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Good remark of not buying anything of first generation (there are exception like with keeping iphone 1gen sealed for many years)
Great video :3
buying this on 11.11
How is it
صديق كيف نشتريه ؟
هاه صديق شريته والا باقي 😂😂
Where's the link to the treadmill?
Played this video to hear how loud the belt is...bro is speaking nonstop on repeat.....fml
How's life living in dubai
