Merach has announced the launch of its new walking tread pad, the UltraWalk W60 Plus, a compact home-fitness machine designed to bring treadmill-grade performance into living rooms, apartments and home offices without requiring users to rearrange the furniture like they are hosting a CrossFit competition.

The UltraWalk W60 Plus will launch on May 26, 2026, with Merach positioning the machine as a more durable, stable and engaging alternative to the lower-quality walking pads that have flooded the home fitness market in recent years.

For a category that has become increasingly popular with remote workers, apartment dwellers and anyone trying to squeeze movement into a busy day, Merach is clearly aiming to give the walking pad a more serious engine room.

A Compact Machine With Treadmill-Grade Ambition

The UltraWalk W60 Plus is powered by a 3.5 Peak HP / 1.25 CHP Continuous brushless motor with an enlarged 105mm diameter, built to deliver smoother operation and reduce the jolting movement often associated with cheaper compact walking machines.

It also supports users up to 400 lbs, a figure that suggests Merach is going after the durability question head-on.

That matters because the walking tread pad market has become a crowded old fairway. Plenty look neat online, only for the belt to stutter, the frame to wobble, or the motor to sound like it has taken up smoking.

Merach’s answer is to blend a compact footprint with the kind of reliability usually associated with larger treadmills.

Built For Homes, Flats And Working Days

The UltraWalk W60 Plus is designed for modern living spaces, where floor space is precious and neighbours generally prefer not to hear your cardio routine through the ceiling.

Merach says the ultra-quiet running belt and one-touch mute function keep noise below 45 dB, making the machine suitable for shared homes, apartments, home offices and night-time sessions.

The unit also requires no assembly. Users can unpack it, plug it into a standard 110V outlet, and begin walking straight away.

For daily practicality, the walking tread pad includes enlarged front transportation wheels to help move it over carpets, along with a vertical folding support stand for easier storage.

Auto Incline Adds More Purpose To The Walk

One of the headline features is the 12% auto incline, which gives the UltraWalk W60 Plus more training depth than a basic flat walking pad.

The speed range runs from 0.6 to 4 MPH, covering gentle desk walking, brisk movement and light jogging. The 16″ x 41″ running belt has been designed to accommodate a more natural stride and upright posture.

That combination makes the machine suitable for low-impact cardio, daily step goals, structured walking programmes and home-office activity.

It is not being framed as a full running treadmill. Instead, Merach appears to be targeting the growing number of people who want accessible movement throughout the day without committing to large gym equipment.

Smart Features Designed To Keep Users Engaged

The UltraWalk W60 Plus also brings entertainment and tracking features into the mix.

Built-in Bluetooth speakers allow users to listen to music or podcasts, while intelligent sound-sensing RGB lighting responds to step frequency or syncs with audio rhythm.

It is a small piece of theatre, yes, but home fitness often needs a little nudge. A walking pad that feels more engaging may be more likely to get used after the novelty has worn off.

The W60 Plus is compatible with the MERACH app, Apple Health and Google Fit, allowing users to track calories, time, distance, speed, incline and step count.

An 8-button magnetic remote and companion app offer one-touch control over speed, incline, lighting, mute, start/stop and programme selection.

Merach On The UltraWalk W60 Plus

“We are eliminating the compromise between professional quality and affordability. For too long, the walking pad market has been saturated with low-quality equipment that breaks down quickly or lacks the stability required for a safe workout. With the UltraWalk W60 Plus, we’ve brought the expertise of a personal trainer directly into the home,” said Robert Luo, CEO of Merach. “We recognized that too many people were forced to choose between expensive, space-hogging treadmills or flimsy walking pads that jolted their joints, broke down quickly, and offered zero engagement.”

“Our goal was to create a device that doesn’t just sit in a room, but actively motivates the user through immersive lighting and sound, while providing the heavy-duty reliability of a full-sized gym treadmill. Whether you are working from home or looking to stay active in a small apartment, the W60 is designed to support your journey without the usual hardware limitations. We’re proud to make premium, professional fitness accessible, enjoyable, and truly practical for modern life.”

Launch Date, Availability And Price

The Merach UltraWalk W60 Plus will be available from May 26, 2026 through the official Merach website and Amazon.

During the launch period, customers can use the code MERACHW60 on both platforms, with Merach stating that the auto-incline W60 Plus will be available for as low as $279.99.

That launch price places the walking tread pad in a competitive position within the home fitness market, particularly given the inclusion of incline training, app compatibility, Bluetooth audio and quiet operation.

Safety Advice For Home Use

Merach recommends wearing appropriate footwear when using the UltraWalk W60 Plus, stepping onto the belt carefully, maintaining natural posture and using the remote or app to stop the unit before stepping off.

It is sensible advice. Compact fitness kit can look harmless enough tucked under a desk, but a moving belt still deserves respect.

A Sign Of Where Home Fitness Is Heading

The UltraWalk W60 Plus arrives at a time when home fitness is becoming less about grand gestures and more about consistency.

Not everyone wants a garage gym. Not everyone wants to run. Many simply want a practical way to move more, especially during long working days.

That is where the walking tread pad has found its lane. It is convenient, low-impact and easy to fold into daily life.

With the UltraWalk W60 Plus, Merach is betting that users now want more than just a basic belt and a speed button. They want incline, stability, tracking, quieter performance and a machine that does not feel like a compromise.

For modern homes where space is tight but the intention to move is there, this launch gives the walking pad category a sharper edge.
