That was really kind, thank you so much! Yeah I think I'm going all in as like an ergonomics channel. Having lots of fun with this.

Woo! Hope it works well for you!

Ok, good to hear that confirmed. I got a sense Urevo was popular in Europe for a reason, seems like that's why

Oh fantastic! I hope you like them! I wouldn't recommend an elliptical desk. I've actually used one, as well as an under-desk bike, and a mini-stepper. I've been on the hunt for the perfect fitness desk since 2016. The problem with ellipticals and bikes is that you have to mentally engage them, rather than simply keep up, so it causes distraction. What usually happens is that when you're focused, you're not engaging the device; and when you're engaging the device, you're less focused. Treadmills are auto-pilot, so it helps occupy that motor part without requiring concentration. The only exception I'll make to this rule is the Xiser Pro Trainer. If you click the link in the description, scroll down and expand the hidden section, there's a lot about the Xiser. It's an invincible device, really good for forever-use, very compact and portable, etc. The reason I except it is that there's enough in sort of the downward fall in its activation that it's like "half automated". It distracts significantly less than a bike / elliptical, but more than a treadmill. The biggest downside is that it's not optimal for knee-health for very prolonged use. So if you plan on doing 4hours or less per day, Xiser is a very viable option.

@@lefnire you are awesome!! Thank you for a fantastic detailed response and explanation!! Keep up the great work! I am excited to see the next video you post.

Just lube it if you're worried. I lube mine every week anyway (every 50 hours recommended, and I do that weekly) so there's no harm in doubling the first go. In fact, as far as I know there's no harm in over-lubing whatsoever; they recommend the minimum case because it's an inconvenience to do. It's worse to under-lube, that can degrade the treadmill. I have another video on lubing in case it's helpful.

@@lefnire When you said you lube your treadmill every week How much lube would you use? Based on your video on lubing, do you use the same amount or less when relubing? And would you still zig-zag the whole area of the treadmill or maybe just basically squirt in a straight line underneath the belt? Thank you for this informative video!

@@gamerdxtom8324 I do around 75% of the syringe in one session. Definitely zig-zag, not straight line. The ideal is that the entire surface of the walking pad gets a really thin sheet of lube; but since that's impossible, the next best is a zig zag; then run it without walking; then walk. The combo spreads it out as best as possible.

How about "Urevo S2 Lite"? (look it up on Urevo's website to know what the photos should look like on Amazon). If no, then uh... I'm not sure, kinda tie between Egofit M1 and GoYouth.

See if you can get the Urevo 2S Lite, very neck-to-neck with the Egofit M2. If you can't get 2S Lite, try (in order): 3S, Spacewalk E3, Spacewalk E5. The Urevos are fantastic runners-up to Egofit, and I've heard most of them are available in Europe (likely through Amazon)

I don't know about this. What is it?

@@lefnire I don't know why my comment was deleted. Earthing is basically an ESD connection that goes either directly into the dirt or the connected to the grounding line of the building. It empirically reduces the base voltage of the body, which happens normally when your feet are directly touching the earth without insulation.

@@chisaomusician7752 that's so interesting. I looked up a video on it, very awesome idea!

@@lefnire Yeah! If you decide on using a outlet ground make sure to test that it is grounding properly and it's a good idea to buy a saftey pass through, which can be found online.

Yes, it has wheels on the front so you tip it on the front. Roll it to where it needs to be and store it upright

3.1 mph max speed for the egofit. It also apparently only displays kmh so max is 5.0 kmh which is 3.1 mph

Walking only. Urevo Strol if you want walk + run (extra cost)

@@wreck90 I started recommending the Urevo because from my tests and research, they're very similar but with the Urevo being $100 cheaper. If you don't care about that $100, get Egofit m2 Pro because it's a tad quieter

@@lefnire Thank you for the quick reply!

@@11sloansmom11 on the budget mills don't think of it as limit per day, but per session. You only want to walk 30-45m at a time, then give it a 5-10m break (heat dissipation).

I'm not sure what that means. I Googled and got "brushless motor', but I'm not familiar enough to say yes or no, if that's what you're referencing

yes, thank you@@lefnire

Yeah. I'm not using it every day, because I'm exploring other options to review (I'm leaning really heavily into Urevo, since they're cheaper and I'd feel better recommending a cheaper, but equivalent product). There is one hitch with Egofit: pet hair. I don't know what it is about the structure of intake to the motor, but it clogs with hair and dust fairly easily, so you have to take off the face plate and vacuum / clean out all hair and debris. It manifests as jerky motions when it gets clogged up. I haven't experienced this with my other treadmills, so it's worth noting.

@@lefnire I'm about to pull the trigger on this, but pet hair is a real concern. How much of a pain is it to vacuum it regularly?

@@lisahohener5825 it's easier to take the plate off this device than most treadmills - so easier to vacuum than most. But at the same time, more "vulnerable" than the ones I've tested to pet hair. So tough call; if you're worried, you may wanna try one of the Urevos which support incline, like 2S Lite or 3S. Me personally, since my dog sheds like a mofo, I've switched to Urevo.

Are you referring to the grey slippers? I just threw those on quickly to record the video. I only ever use Hoka Clifton when working and walking. If you don't like Hoka Clifton, I'll fight you. Due to the raw volume of walking, you want everything dialed: good shoes, the right incline, and the treadmill to have as much shock absorption as possible. Then when you're done walking, sit (don't stand) to let the knees heal.

@@lefnire yes those. Right after i wrote the comment I saw the shoes , they sram decent . I am on a low budget and also a woodworker and I will build a wooden treadmill . The benefit will be that i can adjust the speed in the fly just by walking and it will be cheaper . I dint know about the sound , no motor sound but the wood will bang on the bearings.. I believe it will fix my adhd too. Less pomodoro breaks. I recently made a reflex ball ( a tennis ball tied on a hat with a rubber thread, doing shadow boxing) and it is really amusing and dopaminergic on the pomodoro breaks.

@@antoniskaloterakis7996 that's some incredible handy-work! The Woodway treadmills I believe are self-propelled, sounds very similar to what you're building. I can't fathom building something like that by hand. Hope it turns out great!
