Taking a closer look at the Urevo 2 in 1 Folding Treadmill. This is NOT a sponsored post so here is our unbiased feedback. www.amazon.com/UREVO-Treadmil...
Dude, great video. Lots of information I was looking for about the treadmill. I appreciated the demonstrations and your observations and thoughts. I've been working from home and the heatwave this summer has made it hard to go for a walk. I think you sold me on the Urevo.
UPDATE: I'm still using this every work day and really like it. One strange thing I've noticed is it stops me at 3.3 miles every time. Then I start it again and it works fine. I don't understand that, but whatever. I got 11 miles in today while working - new record!
In the in instructions it states that this model will auto-stop after 99 minutes of continuous operation. That might be why it stops around 3.3 miles each time.
Glad it helped! Yeah, I really don't understand how or why that isn't front and center in the instructions lol. Please subscribe - we're just getting rolling on this channel and lots of reviews to come!
Looks like a solid product. I mean, walking/jogging outside when its sunny should be no. 1, but someone like me who would rather get things done in the comfort of my home this thing looks pretty cool. Thanks for vid.
After the first use the belt seems to swing right. Tried to follow the instructions in the manual, but it doesn’t seem to move to the center. Should I adjust it when the treadmill is on? Or turn off, adjust, turn on and observe? (And repeat until it moves)?
@@mariag.5269 I didn't have that issue so not certain, but personally I wouldn't do any maintenance to it while its turned on. I'd recommend keeping it off
I found a nice and short instruction on how to do that (and it worked!) Hate to say it, but Urevo original user manual instruction is very confusing and even misleading and can even cause a major misalignment of the rollers and faster bearings break (according to what I learned checking other resources). To move the threadmill belt you have to do Allen wrench adjustments ONLY on the LEFT SIDE. Here we go: Crooked Belt Centering When a treadmill belt is crooked, it can become frayed on the edges and may break. While it's natural for the walking belt to become worn over the years with daily use, a crooked belt will break much sooner. Fixing a crooked walking belt is done much in the same way that you loosen or tighten the treadmill belt. Rather than use an Allen wrench on both bolts at the rear of the deck assembly, you alter just one bolt. If your belt is running to the right of center near the rear roller, use your Allen wrench on the left bolt, turning it a quarter turn to the left. Plug in your treadmill and turn it on to a speed of one mile per hour without walking on it. If the walking belt is still crooked, turn everything off and give the Allen wrench quarter turns until it is fixed. If the belt moves to the left near the rear roller instead, use your Allen wrench on the left bolt and turn it to the right, using the same methods as above. www.sportsrec.com/troubleshooting-treadmill-belt-adjustment-5642151.html
1:13 lol I just bought my first treadmill from a different brand, it wouldn't turn on. I thought it was broken. I was recommended this video, thought I'd click it randomly just to see what's up. Turns out, I had the same issue! There was a power button on the bottom that the instructions weren't clear about, at least to me. Thank you! You saved my butt!
Glad it helped! It still works well, but I don't use it as much as I used to. When I got it I was working from home all the time but have switched to hybrid so doesn't get as much use. Never had an issue when I need it though!
@windproductreviews can you please talk about the lubrication of the treadmill? The instruction manual does a poor job of explaining it, I know it needs it every 100 miles but confused on how to do it. Do you have a video about the maintenance and how you are still enjoying it? Thank you. I see your bit about the oil but how much and does it distribute evenly? Also, how often have you had to adjust the belt? Thanks in advance and great video!
i’ve been looking at this for several months and and go plus .. but i always go back to this one . can you run on it please and let me know how it feels lol please ! i run at 4.0-4.1 at gym ...🙏🏽❤️🥴
I almost always walk on it, but it did really well in the testing for running. For the price, it seems to be a great value. I'm still using it 5x a week and it's been great so far!
From your experience do you think using this would bother people living downstairs in my apartment? Or does the treadmill do a good job absorbing each steps?
I wouldn't anticipate that'd being a big issue - it's pretty quite. I use it in the basement though so not certain how much it would "clunk" on the floor if on an upper level
When you collapse the handrail, can you store it up upright on its head, or is it meant to stay on the floor? I'm looking to buy a treadmill for my mom. Curious if it's light enough for her to lift and stand it on its head- to put it out of the way in her living room.
How tall are you ? I’m 6 foot tall and curious if the belt would be long enough for me to jog on . I see many reviews where people jog on it but no one ever says how tall they are for reference
How is the treadmill holding up? I have been wanting to purchase this one, but couldn't find a video from someone who wasn't sponsored. I read a review on Amazon that it gets hot after an hour of walking. Have you noticed that happening? Thank you for this video and the close-ups shots.
I've had no issues at all and have been using it 2-3 hours a day, 5 days a week. Note, I've just been walking so haven't given running much of a trial besides what you saw in the video
How has it been holding up? I bought a "Costway/Superfit" treadmill that looks similar for under my desk and I walk on it at least 4-6 hours a day while working. It broke after about 10 months, and I was maintaining and lubricating it regularly. I wonder if I have to buy a really expensive treadmill to be able to use it sevral hours each weekday. Thanks.
Definitely no app with this one. Very simple treadmill, but for the price it's great. If you're looking for a good fitness tracker, check out my review on the Myzone Switch. I use that almost daily th-cam.com/video/K5DZQl9BNfg/w-d-xo.html
@@windproductreviews I can not find my manual. I thought there was supposed to be an indicator light that comes on for lubrication. Is there actually a light? When it is dry under the belt, how many drops do I put in the lubricant hole? What have you done so far?
Does this come with a safety clip? You know those red clips that you can connect to your clothes, that way if you have an accident it disconnects from the machine & automatically stops it?
Hi! Do you have it plugged in the same outlet as your two monitors and laptop? I would have to use the same outlet, so that's my only concern, that it will trip the circuit or blow a fuse.
Yup I do. No issues, but I suppose it could depend on else you have running on that same circuit elsewhere in the house. I'd think you'll be fine though
I've switched to a hybrid work schedule so not using it quite as frequently, but no complaints at all from when I do use it. I honestly forgot I'm using it so it's a great way to sneak in extra miles during the work day
Sound isn't bad, but I never use it on calls. If nothing else, I'd look pretty goofy walking in place while on zoom lol. If you were going slow and not on video you could probably pull it off
Does it overheat after long use? I've been searching for an under desk treadmill but I see lots of ones on amazon with the motor getting too hot and smoking up.
@@windproductreviews Haven't received the mill yet. But reading ahead. The directions are rather confusing imo. Not sure if it says 10ml (how much oil in bottle) or the whole bottle... and is it only through the port filler? It says 10ml each time. Meaning every 100 hr etc.... but it only came with 10ml? How's your lubrication holding up?
@@volcanowb don't overthink it. You'll know when it needs lubrication (for me it was after 6 months of regular use) and then it will likely take the whole bottle. Just don't forget the on off switch by the power cord 🙂
@@volcanowb agreed... the instructions need some help. I just watched as I filled it and as long as it wasn't too the top I kept going. Took the whole bottle. Note this was 6 months in... didn't need to put any in until then
@@VenilaRice honestly it's hard to guage because I go to the gym and lift weights almost daily. So while I've likely lost some fat, I've also gained muscle so the scale hasn't changed much. My wife also recently decided she wants to use it so I temporarily moved it out from under my desk so she can run. That said, works well for running too!
Quick update. About about 6 months it started to be a little louder than usual. Added the provided lubricant (took the whole bottle) and it's been back to normal ever since
@@windproductreviews Still haven't pulled the trigger as yet but this was a great and informative real world usage review. I notice they just release a new version as well which is the "Urevo Strol 2 2 in 1" . Was thinking to just get a newer one instead.
Finally someone who reviewed this without being sent the product for free. Thank you for sharing!
I wish people would send me free products 🤣. Glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching!
Mine broke after 7 days of use.
Dude, great video. Lots of information I was looking for about the treadmill. I appreciated the demonstrations and your observations and thoughts. I've been working from home and the heatwave this summer has made it hard to go for a walk. I think you sold me on the Urevo.
The best explanation. I literally didn't know where the on/off button was and was going to return it. Thank you!
Glad I could help! So strange they didn't put that one page 1 haha
This is such a helpful video. It answers all my questions. Thanks and love the little assistants.
no prob, Glad it helped!

@@spooter79 yeah it could be. I go different speeds though and always seems to stop right there. Oh well, I just start it up again. No big deal
@@spooter79 Okay, but WHO in their right minds runs 99 MINUTES CONTINUOUSLY???
@@spooter79 mine stopes randomly and Now when it turns on the belt doesn’t rotate.
@lac92576 lol my brother is an ultra marathoner and does 100 mile races. 99 minutes is his warm up 😂
Dude you rock !!!! you just saved me a ton of time .. i didn't know about the power switch.

Thanks! For the price seems to be a great value so far
Thank you for this video. I could not figure out how to turn it on!
Glad we could help! Blows my mind that they didn't think to put that in the instructions
The wrench is used to loosen each side to put the pad back in place if it shifts to either side.
Thanks i started to get mad it wasnt powering on and you helped me find the switch 😂
Thanks for the review!
No problem! Hope it helped :)
Thank you for the video.
Thanks for the demo along with your lovely assistants. Everything price me good except seems to be very noisy.
I haven't had too much issue with the noise, but I'm usually walking rather than running.
Hi there! Got mine today!!!! So excited!!!! Thank you for a thorough first use experience!!! I feel like I have a friend by my side now:)
So glad it helped! Enjoy 🙂

Hey! Really appreciate your unbiased review! I’m wondering if you have an update after having it for over a year?

Thank you 😊, I couldn't get machine to turn on & found nothing about switch either in instructions.
Glad it helped! Doesn't that seem like an obvious thing to have front and center in the instructions?
@@windproductreviews Yes! I was a bit frustrated, having read instructions 3 times, including troubleshooting. Thank you again ☺️!

No I just turn off via the power button on the remote. If the bars are up for faster speeds you can also just hit the stop button on there
@@windproductreviews thanks:)
Just picked one up.
How do you like it?

Hi thank you for the review. What is the weight limit?
I am showing this tops out at 265 lbs
When you collapse the handrail, can you store it up upright on its head, or is it meant to stay on the floor?
I'm looking to buy a treadmill for my mom. Curious if it's light enough for her to lift and stand it on its head- to put it out of the way in her living room.
Yeah it was surprisingly light and I would think storing it standing up would be just fine.
How about on its side? Would the tread oil leak?
How tall are you ? I’m 6 foot tall and curious if the belt would be long enough for me to jog on . I see many reviews where people jog on it but no one ever says how tall they are for reference

So far so good, but I've only had it about 6 months so far!
When would you add the lubricant? Is there an indicator? Or, will the moving floor start i.e. sticking or something?
Good question - I added a little bit after like 5 months just because I thought I should but really no way to know that I'm aware of
Trying to pick between this one or treadly pro 2 they look about the same. This one doesn’t seem to have an app to track progress though or community.

Does this come with a safety clip? You know those red clips that you can connect to your clothes, that way if you have an accident it disconnects from the machine & automatically stops it?
I don't believe there is any clip that you hook to yourself, but there is a big emergency stop button when the handles are up
omg just realized you did run on it lol
WHAT iS THE BRAND OF WORKDESK YOU USE WHiLE WORKiNG/WALKiNG ON THE UREVO?
One I got off of Amazon called FEZIBO Electric Height Adjustable Standing Desk
how about now?

Yup I do. No issues, but I suppose it could depend on else you have running on that same circuit elsewhere in the house. I'd think you'll be fine though
So show how fast it goes without the remote 😩 so close to my answers yet so far 😩
You can use it with the handle folded down? I want it to fit in a space without space for a handle while I’m typing
Yup, but only goes up to 3 mph when folded down
Is it still working well after the year? Still actively using it?
No issues so far but I haven't been using it a ton since I'm no longer working from home every day
I was thinking of buying this treadmill. You posted this video 6 months ago. How's it holding up, is it worth the buy?
I've switched to a hybrid work schedule so not using it quite as frequently, but no complaints at all from when I do use it. I honestly forgot I'm using it so it's a great way to sneak in extra miles during the work day
Okay. Thanks for letting me know and for the review.
How is the sound. Can you walk and still be in meetings without the treadmills sound is heard from the others in the meeting?
Sound isn't bad, but I never use it on calls. If nothing else, I'd look pretty goofy walking in place while on zoom lol. If you were going slow and not on video you could probably pull it off
Do you one person carry the package up a flight or stairs?
It says team lift, but 1 theoretically could. It's more awkward than heavy. I carried it myself.
Does it overheat after long use? I've been searching for an under desk treadmill but I see lots of ones on amazon with the motor getting too hot and smoking up.
I haven't noticed any issues with overheating. I've noticed it gets maybe a little warm, but nothing concerning. Definitely no smoke that I've seen
@@windproductreviews Thanks for the reply! Good to know, I will probably get myself this one.
May I ask, what was your starting weight when you 1st used the treadmill? Thank you for such a thorough review.
I'm also interested, I'm 230 and my prior treadmill would stick. I'd like to know if this can handle my "heavy bones" lol
Hi! I was wondering how it held up after a year?
Really well actually! I'm no longer working from home so I actually gave it to my parents who use it daily and love it
Do you know how to reset the oil fill light?
Sorry no I don't. Hasn't happened to me yet
Hi! I was wondering if the product was still working? Has any issues come up since past update comments?
Thank you!
So far so good although now that I no longer work from home it doesn't get nearly as much use as it once did. Works great whenever I do need it though
@@windproductreviews thanks for your reply!
how is this holding up in 2022?
I am no longer working from home, so I don't use it nearly as much as I once did, but every time I use it its still holding up great!
How should a beginner use a treadmill?
Works well. I feel like this is perfect for beginners to intermediate level
Do you still recommend 1 year later?
I don't use it very often now that I'm no longer working from home, but yes no complaints at all. Seems to be a very good value for the price
Hello is this adjustable incline ?
I haven't really tried, but I don't think it does. Not seeing any incline switch or button so I can say, with a fair amount of confidence, it does not
