I want to use this on a treadmill to put tablet at eye level. Will tablet stay put on this with all that vibration? Or does the ball joint get loose?

Elliptical vibration was no problem. I don't think it would but the two other factors are will it get a good grip? I found that the clamp on several ellipticals was not big or wide enough to get a grip. the design of the ellipticals was almost as if they wanted to make sure I could not clamp anything....So, at it's most wide open the clamp is not ginormous....so if your treadmill does not have a 3 inch or less thick place for it to attach to...that may be a problem.

Tough to say. The ball joint is pretty stable, but I have not tried it on a treadmill.

Absolutely it will! I have it on my tread mill holding my Tab 3 and I can read a book while using the tread mill.

I agree with dgminer and William Costley - it took a lot of force for me to get the socket of the clip securely onto the ball of the friction mount. The GPS will still vibrate a little, especially if you pivot it up off the base. I keep mine fairly low on the base to prevent this.

No, it only lies flat or is hand held. However, the material is grippy and your tablet stays in place very well if you are propping it up against something else.

All movements have a screw associated with them. You can loosen or tighten the screws with an allen wrench to control the amount of movement. I have mine set just tight enough to keep the monitor in place as I use it but also allow me to move it to a new position when I change positions at my desk. You could probably tighten the screws to keep the arm in place once you position it to allow the touch screen function without worrying about movement. It would be too cumbersome, however, if you plan to reposition your monitor frequently.

The wheel has a switch to lock it in place, so you would not encounter any wobbling if that is engaged. I jog (not run) with it unlocked with it having free range of motion. I have never encountered wobbling or shaking nor have lost control, but I limit my use to smooth paved surfaces.

I was 152 lbs when I started running on this treadmill. It's very sturdy but a little noisier than most. I listen to music while running so it doesn't bother me. Be advised, this is NOT a flat surface treadmill, it has a slight incline. I took 2 1" pieces of practical board and lifted the rear . Even after that it's still sturdy.

I use mine for running and it never falls off. It's a pretty tight fit. I never had a problem with them at the gym.

Good question. You might need to weight the table. It would depend on how the weight compares. Related to stability -- I have my Ergotron and two monitors mounted on a very firm desk surface and find that the keyboard and monitors bounce and jiggle a little as I work, as others have also reported.

It's pretty sturdy and doesn't shake too much. It can be very difficult to keep a rhythm when walking and I find that I have to keep at least one hand on it while walking. The motion is more like pushing something as opposed to walking on a motorized treadmill.

This is a clamp-on mechanism that only clamps to a horizontal surface. So it would work if the treadmill has a good surface that is about 2-1/2" wide. Due to the vibration of the treadmill, I would suggest putting a rubber pad under it, like maybe a piece of mouse pad, to dampen vibration and keep it from shaking loose.

Sorry but no, because it mounts with screws. If you had a wooden surface or similar material on your treadmill that you could attach it to, than by all means go ahead, but unless you have a place to mount it with screws, you cannot

I am 5'1" and use the TrekDesk. I was meticulous in measuring the lowest height of the trekdesk (from scematics on their website) and then checking the height of the treadmill panels before I bought a treadmill. The bottom of my treadmill panel is just below the lip of the desk. Also, I put a rubber mat under the treadmill to raise it up a bit. They recommend that anyway in case of oil leak.Mine works fine. After a few tens of times of jumping on and off I have to adjust the belt.

I use mine primarily for display and take the tablet out for use. It's solid, though. When I do switch apps or do minor typing... there's no shake at all.

I use another 7seven tablet on it . It works well the stand.It doesn't wobble or teeter. Very stable.

We use the mat to protect the floor, so I think as long as the whole treadmill fits on the mat, you should be ok.

The part that holds the device cradles the tablet. You can adjust it forward or backward at whatever angle you want. I use it as a TV stand but it will work as a stand to hold the device for any purpose. It simply rests in the cradle and is not secured in it by any clamps etc. so it will fall out when you have it tilting forward beyond a vertical plane. It has to be either straight up and down or tilted rearward.

If the treadmill will lock (not move while it is off) I believe it would work. The bottom is very "grippy" so as long as the treadmill would be able to support any type "chair", in my opinion this would work as well. If you were to tilt it at an steep angle and the treadmill belt was not locked, it could cause the belt to start to move (even though it is off) in that case it would not be safe. Hope that helps!
