The MERACH NovaWalk W50 TrekPad is an incline-capable walking pad for home walking, not a conventional running treadmill. MERACH lists a top speed of 4.0 mph, automatic incline from 1% to 12%, a 400 lb maximum user weight and a two-year warranty. Those are manufacturer specifications; independent performance testing was not identified for this model.
What the W50 is designed to do
For a construction professional who wants to walk at home or fit movement around desk work, the W50’s published speed range and compact format make it a walking-focused option. MERACH promotes it for work-from-home walking and incline sessions. Its 4.0 mph ceiling is walking-pad territory, so it is not the right choice if you need ordinary running speeds or a machine for running workouts.
Its 1%–12% automatic incline range supports adjustable uphill walking. MERACH’s headline may shorthand the maximum as 12%, but its specification table starts at 1%; a flat 0% setting is not established by the listed specifications.

These figures are published by MERACH’s product page. The motor’s peak and continuous ratings are different measures: the 3.5 HP peak figure should not be read as continuous output. Likewise, the 400 lb limit and up-to-10-hour use figure are manufacturer ratings, not independently validated outcomes or guarantees for every user and operating condition.

Footprint, storage and noise
At 50.2 × 22.2 × 6.1 inches and 69.2 lb, the W50 has a relatively low-profile format, but its weight is worth considering if you expect to move it frequently. MERACH says it can be rolled and stored upright and advertises noise below 40 dB. These are brand claims; the available source material does not provide independent storage or noise measurements. Check that the intended upright storage location is stable and suitable for the unit.

App features and controls
The machine connects to the MERACH app over Bluetooth for workout tracking and programs. The US product-page FAQ says, “The MERACH app offers a variety of free features and exercise classes.” MERACH also places advanced coaching subscription details and pricing in the app, so check the app itself for any current charge before relying on a paid feature. The machine’s listed magnetic remote and display metrics provide control and workout information without making the app the only described interface.
See the MERACH US product page for its app description.

Warranty and maintenance need a unit-specific check
MERACH’s official product pages state a two-year warranty, but a W50 manual hosted by Manuals+ identifies model MR-T25B2-US and states a one-year warranty. Because the published terms conflict, confirm the warranty documentation that comes with the exact unit and check coverage for your region, seller and purchase. Do not assume the same term applies to every listing.
The third-party-hosted manual says to lubricate the walking belt every three months or after 50 hours of use, whichever comes first, and says a tool kit and lubricant are included. Confirm the instructions in the manual for your unit before servicing it, including which lubricant is compatible. The document is available at Manuals+.

Who should consider the W50?
- Consider it if your main goal is home walking, including incline walking, and the 4.0 mph speed ceiling meets your needs.
- Check the fit carefully if belt width or length, the unit’s 69.2 lb weight, or upright storage is important in your space.
- Look elsewhere if you need a treadmill intended for running speeds, a confirmed flat setting, independently measured noise or performance, or warranty terms that are unambiguous before purchase.
For a fair comparison with another walking pad, compare continuous motor output separately from peak output, maximum speed, incline range and adjustment type, belt dimensions, user-weight rating, runtime rating, footprint, weight, storage orientation, app charges and the warranty attached to the actual seller and region. The published information does not establish that the W50 outperforms competing models.
