I've had this home gym for a few months now and am finally submitting a review. I wanted to put some miles on it as well as see if the novelty would wear off before rating. Overall, I am still very satisfied and thrilled with the purchase. It's been worth every penny not having to spend money on gym memberships, time, and gas (which = more $).
I did alot of comparisons before and after the purchase. I can honestly say - for the value, quality, versatility, and convenience - you just can't beat it.
I chose this gym for the following main reasons:
1. Well built.
2. Comes with most of the main components (especially cables) already assembled. You will need a helping hand to lift, move and hold a section or two while you fasten them together. My 10 year old son was perfect for the job.
3. Most versatile - in terms of types of exercises (especially when you get creative and add certain attachments to it). Fully adjustable for fit and comfortability.
4. Iron stack (not cement blocks). Plus you can purchase and add more weight to the standard 160lbs that come with it.
5. Relatively small footprint. I had a leverage bench press machine (used only for chest exercises) that took up more space than this gym that practically works out your whole body.
6. Much easier than adding and removing free weight plates when changing exercises. On this machine it's a matter of pulling and setting a couple of pins and clips and jumping right to the next workout. No lagging! Because of the ease resulting from the clever design, I find that it's more fun and addictive to use.
7. Looks a lot nicer than most home gyms.
8. Allows me to be home with my family after work and still get in a great workout.
My friends love it and always get on it when they're visiting.
Recommend if:
You want to stay healthy, develop strength, stamina and endurance, build toned muscle, and have a good physical appearance.
Bottom line is: I LOVE IT; I'm glad I got it, and would recommend it without hesitation. It's a home gym and a great quality home gym. Don't expect a super-heavy-duty industrial-grade one-excercise-specific piece of commercial-gym equipment.
PS> Instead of a $79 rubber mat, I bought a $15 six-piece foam puzzle mat set to put under it; and works just fine! Put money saved towards other fun attachments - like the rope attachment for tricep pulldowns!
