After the past year, we’ve all be re-evaluating how to make our work lives healthier, more enjoyable, and less sedentary. Many have opted to invest in a standing desk or a walking treadmill, but both of these options can be expensive, and some may find that they make users bounce around too much to be effectively used during work. Enter the under-desk elliptical—an easy way to keep your legs moving throughout the day while staying seated and keeping your upper half still.

Even though these tiny machines are more affordable than many other pieces of workout equipment, they’re not exactly cheap, so it’s important to ensure you’re getting the most bang for your buck when you buy. To help you out, we tracked down some of the top models that are on sale on Amazon right now. Look below for our top picks, and be sure to shop fast before these sales disappear.
