## FAQs

**How does the 30-Day Risk-Free Trial work?**
There is a 30-day risk-free return period. If you decide to return your Aviron, package it back in the original box and Aviron will send a return label for shipping. There are no restocking or return shipping fees. See the [return policy](https://www.avironactive.com/support/general/return-policy/) for details.

**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 — when your initial membership is active and the equipment is purchased directly through the website. If your membership is no longer active or you did not purchase directly from the website, you receive an industry-leading 10-year warranty on the drive motor and structural frame, plus a 1-year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. See the [Warranty page](https://www.avironactive.com/support/general/warranty/) for full details.

**Is the Podium suitable for daily or serious running?**
Yes. The 4.5 CHP brushless drive motor is commercial-grade and stays cool through long or hard sessions. You get a 14 mph top speed, 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 reduces load on knees, hips, and back — which matters most when running frequently.

**How do expert reviewers rate the Aviron Podium Treadmill?**
Garage Gym Reviews rated the Podium 4.4 out of 5 in its expert-tested review (updated October 7, 2026), written by Matt Dustin, CSCS, PN1-NC. Verdict: "If you like virtual workouts, live classes, and interactive games, it's hard to beat the Aviron Podium Treadmill." Good Housekeeping also ranked the Podium #7 and named it "Best Interactive" in its roundup of 30+ tested treadmills (updated October 29, 2026).

**Can the treadmill be folded and stored away?**
Yes. 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: 80" L x 37" W x 66" H. Folded: 49" L x 37" W x 68" H. Two transport wheels 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 — covering three jobs: walking desk, walking pad alternative, and full-speed connected treadmill. The desk stays level even when the treadmill is inclined and includes an accessory tray, cup holder, access to the magnetic wireless charging pad, and a USB-C port.
