0333 880 3211 Mon–Fri, 09:00–17:00The Gauntlet stepmill range
- StairMaster 4G Gauntlet Stepmill — the entry point into the Gauntlet range.
- StairMaster 8Gx Gauntlet Stepmill — 8 Series console and build.
- StairMaster 10G Gauntlet Stepmill — the top of the range.
Within each model, the options are about the console, not the mechanics: the staircase itself is the same machine. If the display only needs to show essentials like heart rate and step count, a simpler console gives you exactly the same climb.
What a stepmill actually is
A stepmill is a genuine revolving staircase: real steps rotating at a set speed, which you climb. It is not a stair climber with pedals. You are taking actual steps, with the full range of hip and knee movement that involves. That is why stepmills are almost impossible to coast on: the staircase keeps turning whether you keep up or not.
Why gyms buy them
- Highest output per minute. Climbing loads the glutes, quads and calves against gravity through a full range.
- No landing impact. You step up rather than land, so the joint loading is far lower than running at equivalent effort.
- Direct carryover. Climbing stairs is a real-world task. Very little else in a cardio range can say that.
Stepmill or FreeClimber?
A stepmill is the more intense, real-staircase option. The StairMaster FreeClimber uses independent pedals, with a lower step and smaller footprint, making it more practical for home gyms and mixed-ability floors. Compare every stair climber or see the full StairMaster range.
Check your ceiling before ordering
A stepmill puts you 30–50cm above the floor before you start climbing. Measure your ceiling height, subtract the step height, then subtract your own height. A machine that fits the floor plan can still be unusable in a garage, basement or converted loft. Contact us with your room height and we will confirm the fit before you order.
