Treadmills and walking pads
Decide first whether you will walk or run. Walking pads are low, flat and quiet and mostly stop at about 4 mph; running needs a treadmill that reaches 10 mph, with a console, handrails and a longer deck. Then check the maximum user weight the maker states, and only then compare incline, deck size and price.
Each list states its selection criteria, and every pick is checked against its maker's page.
