## Core Benefits & Features

### Power You Won't Outrun
Train at a full 18% incline with a top speed of 14 mph on the only foldable treadmill that doesn't compromise on performance.

### Easy on Knees & Noise
The CloudStride deck puts 8 shock absorbers between you and the floor, so every stride is easy on knees, joints, and quiet (~40 dB at walking speed, ~70 dB at top speed).

### Automatic Incline Programs
Programs adjust incline automatically for a dynamic workout — let the treadmill do the thinking.

### Fully Customizable Controls
Program your go-to walking, jogging, and running shortcut keys, then update them anytime as your fitness progresses. Tune belt acceleration based on your fitness level and workout style — faster for athletes and interval workouts, more gradual for beginners.

### Comfort Amenities
Integrated 3-speed fan, magnetic wireless charging pad, USB-C port, built-in heart rate sensors, storage tray, and two oversized cup holders.

### Effortless Folding
SafeLift pneumatic-assisted folding mechanism helps you fold away with ease, then lowers safely on its own. Two transport wheels for easy repositioning.

### Premium Steel Construction
Reinforced steel frame, solid and stable. 350 lb weight capacity. Backed by a 20-year warranty.

## FAQ

**How does the 30-Day Risk-Free Trial work?**
There is a 30-day risk-free return period which means you can use Aviron and see if it's for you. If you decide to return your Aviron, you will need to package it back up in the box in which it arrived and Aviron will send you a return label for shipping. There are no restocking or shipping return fees. See the return policy at https://www.avironactive.com/support/general/return-policy/

**What warranty is included?**
Aviron's connected fitness equipment comes with a comprehensive 20-year limited warranty on parts for equipment and accessories, including the touchscreen, motors, deck, belt, control pad, and frame, provided your initial membership is active and the equipment is purchased directly through the website. If your membership is no longer active or if you did not purchase directly from the website, you'll still receive an industry-leading 10-year warranty on the drive motor and structural frame, plus a 1-year limited warranty on parts for equipment and accessories. Full details at https://www.avironactive.com/support/general/warranty/

**Is the Podium suitable for daily or serious running?**
Yes. A 4.5 CHP brushless drive motor is commercial-grade territory, and it stays cool through long or hard sessions rather than straining. You get a 14 mph top speed, an 18% incline for real hill work, a 22" x 60" deck with room for a full stride, and a 350 lb weight capacity. The CloudStride deck with 8 shock absorbers takes the load off your knees, hips, and back, which matters most when you're running often.

**Can the treadmill be folded and stored away?**
Yes, which is unusual for a treadmill at this performance level. The Podium folds using SafeLift, a pneumatic-assisted mechanism that helps you lift the deck with minimal effort, then lowers it slowly and safely on its own. In use it measures 80" L x 37" W x 66" H. Folded, the footprint shrinks to 49" L x 37" W and it stands 68" tall. Two transport wheels near the center of gravity make it easy to reposition.

**What is the Aviron Treadmill WalkDesk?**
The WalkDesk is an optional accessory that snaps onto the Podium and turns it into a stable standing workstation. It means one machine covers three jobs: a walking desk, a walking pad alternative, and a full-speed connected treadmill. The desk stays level even when the treadmill is inclined, and it includes an accessory tray, a cup holder, access to the magnetic wireless charging pad, and a USB-C port that keeps a tablet charged in the slot.

**Which Aviron treadmill is right for me?**
Aviron makes three treadmills, each built for a different kind of workout and a different living space. The Podium is the all-rounder: a powerful motor, a large deck, and high incline for runners and busy households, and it still folds away. The Justice is the most compact and the entry point into the lineup, and it folds too. The Summit is Aviron's most capable machine, with the largest deck and most cushioned ride, plus a 42% incline for hill training. It doesn't fold. Compare all three: https://www.avironactive.com/shop/treadmill-shop/?section=compare-treadmills
