Standing Desk Treadmills & Bikes

Thought it might be worth having a dedicated thread for standing desk treadmills (for those interested, here’s our general thread on standing desks).

So far I’ve found this one that looks suitable:

It’s the widest I can find (45cm mat) in a flat treadmill (most are 40cm). I did also consider the foldable one, but they can only be used for walking as most only go up to a speed of 3km/h. The one on the video above can go up to 6km/h.

This one seems to be purpose built, but seems so small!

This is a folding one:

Man, there’s literally physically no space where to put it. I’ll settle for two huge height-adjustable desks and will do my best to spend much more time to stand and not to sit.

Just a thought, are there any people who have experimented with a ‘home trainer’ rather than a threadmill? Maybe a stationary bike-like setup might make it easier to keep typing/mousing than a threadmill?
