Patented folding fitness
KingSmith WalkingPad leads the evolution of compact home fitness with patented folding treadmill innovation. Our walking pad treadmills and foldable fitness machines like rowers and weight benches, deliver full workouts while fitting seamlessly into modern homes.
TriFold™ Rowers
KingSmith's signature TriFold™ technology folds a full-size rower into a compact three-part structure for easy storage. When folded, it stands safely in a footprint smaller than a chair, providing a complete rowing experience while keeping living and office spaces organized.
FootSense™ Technology
The FootSense™ uses integrated sensors to detect position on the belt and adjust speed automatically. Step forward to accelerate, stay centered to maintain pace, or move back to slow down. This hands-free system delivers a smooth and natural walking rhythm.
SoftStep™ Shock Absorption
A multi-layer deck with advanced cushioning reduces joint impact by absorbing shock with each step, supporting a more comfortable walking and running experience over time.
SpeedDial™ Control
The SpeedDial™ offers precise, intuitive speed adjustment through a compact dial. Turn left or right to change pace and press to start or stop, keeping simple control within easy reach.

Fitness for everyone
At WalkingPad, we believe that fitness should be within reach for all. Whether you're an experienced gym-goer or a complete beginner, fitness should fit your life, not the other way around. It shouldn't feel overwhelming, and it shouldn't take hours out of your day.

Advanced folding tech
The WalkingPad is a revolutionary treadmill with numerous technology and design patent applications, protecting what is uniquely ours. Proprietary technology enables our treadmills to literally fold in half and then be stored against a wall or under a couch, completely out of the way.
All-new walking pad
The category of walking pad treadmills didn't exist before KingSmith introduced the brand new idea. The first WalkingPad was launched via XiaoMi Crowdfunding and took off like wild fire. The internet could not get enough of the brand new folding treadmill called the WalkingPad.
Always forward
We have a wide range of walking pad treadmills to make sure we have exactly what you need. Our best selling mini treadmills and top of the line triple-folding treadmills are truly without comparison. Couple a WalkingPad with one of our standing desks and you reach next level work efficiency.
Milestones
Grab a quick 30-minute workout then drop the uprights and walk with it under your desk. The excuses disappear when you have both machines in one small package. The ultimate office hack.

WalkingPad® brand story
"It's going to be my dopamine maker!" - We were postgrads and doctoral students and the great pressure of our scientific research had exhausted our formerly energetic and strong bodies. My doctor told me to get more exercise, but I didn't even have time to walk in the park. We knew we had to deliver ourselves out of this terrible lack of physical activity. We wanted something that fit anywhere, was available anytime and was something easy to do and that allowed us to exercise standing up.
There wasn't anything that did everything we were looking for, so we decided to make it happen. We wanted it to be light and thin and it had to fold, so it could be put under a couch or desk. That led us to the very first WalkingPad treadmill prototype. The response from friends and the market was remarkable, we knew we had something special. We knew then that "helping more people love fitness" would be our mission.
We are as committed today as we were then, to continue to deliver innovative ways to conveniently exercise every day. We want the world to discover the WalkingPad treadmill so they too can have a way to walk off the hard times, deal with life's challenges and feel their very best.
