Vitalwalk Walking Pads
The Elite, Ultra and Max in Vitalwalk's Apollo 11 line share one verified motor and differ mainly in incline. Its label reads 735W, S1 continuous duty, thermal class F, which works out to 0.99 continuous horsepower, and an S1 duty rating is a rare disclosure at this price. Incline runs 12, 15 and 20 percent, the Max reaching the top of that range across 20 discrete levels. The entry-tier Apollo 11 Vibe (TM12GY) is the exception: its manual rates it at 550W and 3.8 mph. The Apollo 11 models are the same hardware as Jogwell's Ares 11 line, tier for tier, so cross-shop both. Warranty terms disagree between the brand record and the product listings, and Amazon has been splitting these listings apart, so recent star counts are unstable.

Vitalwalk Apollo 11 Vibe
The entry-tier Apollo 11: 15% auto incline and a 39.5 by 16 inch deck for $297.48 on Amazon (2026-10-28), about $100 under Vitalwalk's $399.99 direct price (2026-11-06). Bluetooth speakers, a mute button and a 15-second absence auto-pause set it apart from the rest of the line. The manual rates its motor at 550W, against the 735W of the Elite, Ultra and Max, and it tops out at 3.8 mph. It weighs 44.8 lb, carries 330 lb, stores upright in 1.5 square feet, and holds 4.2 stars from 42 ratings.
Vitalwalk Apollo 11 Ultra
Full-deck walking pad with 735W brushless motor (1 CHP, S1 continuous), 12% auto incline, 43×18" belt, 350 lb capacity. Same motor as Max (my current value pick) - hands-on tested, $30 less.
Vitalwalk Apollo 11 Elite
The cheapest Apollo 11 whose 0.99 continuous horsepower is confirmed by its own manual rather than inferred from the family. That verified 735W brushless motor, 15 percent auto incline and the line's only independently corroborated shock system are what separate it from the Vibe below it, which publishes no motor figure at all and, as of 2026-08-22, cost only $2.46 less on Amazon. Against that, its 40 by 16 inch deck is a genuine step down from the Ultra and Max, and its rating pool fell from 4.4 across 259 reviews to 4.3 across 97 in an Amazon listing split.
Vitalwalk Apollo 11 Max
The Apollo 11 Max tops Vitalwalk's line with 20-level auto incline to 20% and 400 lb capacity, on a frame 11 lb lighter than the Ultra. The 3.5HP badge is peak marketing rather than hardware: it runs the same concealed 735W brushless motor rated 0.99 CHP continuous as the cheaper Elite and Ultra, so incline range, capacity and weight are what the step up actually buys. On 2026-10-28 Amazon had it at $499.98 against a $599.99 list, $100 under Vitalwalk's own store and $90 under the Ultra's $589.99 brand-direct price (checked 2026-10-07), so the top model costs less than the one below it. Its own rating pool has grown to 194 at 4.3 stars, between the Ultra's 152 and the Elite's 297.
