Walking/Running Pad / Treadmill Recommendations

Hello

can anyone recommend a walking pad or treadmill that I can jog on? I’m not a fast runner (can do 5k in about 36 mins), are any of the compact”walking pads” suitable for this?

We have this one and find it great: https://www.decathlon.co.uk/p/folding-treadmill-14-km-h-compact-run100-with-decathlon-warranty/346612/m8800625

it folds so it fits under our couch when not in use. Two of us use it several
times a week. I run about 6k no faster than 10km/h. DH runs up to 12k on it at about 12k/h. It goes up to 14k

If you can, get to a decathlon and see the one mentioned above?
that’s what I would do if buying one now.
i have one from Amazon and it’s adequate for walking - walking particularly fast feels like it needs concentration and there’s no way that I would run on it. I wouldn’t purchase one with no upright handle either.
im happy to run on a treadmill in the gym but mine feels so narrow
