Merach launches UltraWalk W60 Plus; an ideal joint-friendly home fitness solution for the over-50s

Boasting a 12% auto-incline, a whisper-quiet motor, and heavy-duty 400lb (180kg) weight capacity, this space-saving walking pad brings gym-quality, low-impact exercise directly into the home.

Global home fitness innovator Merach, which serves over 10 million households worldwide, has officially unveiled its highly anticipated UltraWalk W60 Plus walking pad. Engineered to bridge the gap between bulky gym treadmills and flimsy, low-quality fitness equipment, this premium machine is being hailed as the ideal solution for adults aged 50 and over who want to maintain their cardiovascular health, mobility, and strength from the comfort and safety of their own home.

As we age, staying active is crucial for bone density, heart health, and joint flexibility. However, unpredictable weather and high-impact concrete walking can take a toll on mature joints. The UltraWalk W60 Plus solves this by offering a smooth, “treadmill-level” experience that completely eliminates the frustrating jerks, jolts, and lagging common in cheaper models.

Engineered for Safety, Comfort, and Longevity

For those in their 50s and beyond, stability and ease of use are paramount. The UltraWalk W60 Plus features a robust, heavy-duty build that supports a class-leading user weight of up to 400 lbs (180kg), offering unmatched stability and peace of mind during use.

Powered by a commercial-grade 3.5 Peak HP brushless motor, it delivers a smooth speed range of 0.6–4 MPH. This makes it perfect for everything from a gentle evening stroll to an active, brisk power-walk.

Key benefits for over-50s fitness include:

Joint-Friendly 12% Auto-Incline: Mimics the health benefits of outdoor hiking and hill walking. It allows users to boost their heart rate and burn more calories without increasing speed or impact on knees and ankles.
Spacious & Safe Surface: The generous 16″ x 41″ running belt accommodates a natural stride, helping users maintain an upright, healthy, and safe posture.
Whisper-Quiet Operation: Operating at under 53.6 dB with a one-touch mute function, it won’t disturb the rest of the household, making it perfect for use while watching the evening news or listening to a podcast.

“For too long, the fitness market has forced people to choose between expensive, space-hogging treadmills or flimsy walking pads that jolt the joints and lack stability,” says Robert Luo, CEO of Merach. “With the UltraWalk W60 Plus, we have brought the reliable, safe experience of outdoor walking into the home. It is designed to support your health journey safely, comfortably, and without hardware limitations.”

Zero Assembly, Effortless Storage

Recognising that fitness equipment should fit seamlessly into daily life without DIY headaches, the UltraWalk W60 Plus requires absolutely no assembly. Users simply unpack the unit, plug it into a standard outlet, and begin their wellness routine.

When the workout is finished, there is no heavy lifting required. The unit features enlarged front transportation wheels that glide effortlessly—even over thick carpets—and a vertical folding support stand for easy, out-of-sight daily storage behind a door or in a cupboard.

An Immersive, Connected Fitness Journey

To keep daily exercise engaging, the W60 Plus features built-in Bluetooth speakers and smart sound-sensing RGB lighting that can sync to the rhythm of your favourite music or podcasts. It offers full compatibility with the MERACH app, Apple Health, and Google Fit, allowing users to effortlessly track their daily steps, calories, distance, and time. Control is kept incredibly simple via an intuitive, magnetic 8-button remote control or directly through a smartphone.

For safe and effective use, Merach recommends wearing supportive athletic footwear, stepping onto the belt carefully, maintaining a natural posture, and utilizing the remote control to bring the unit to a complete stop before stepping off.
