Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Best Selling in Home Gyms
This machine is the best value out there. It's nothing to set up; took me and 1 friend 15 minutes to attach the foot and some small pieces and that was it. Using your own body weight is just fine for a beginner and the resistance bands are a wonderful option as you get stronger. It is pretty long but not nearly as heavy as I thought it'd be, make sure you have ample room for the length. Im glad I chose this, same workouts as more expensive brands at a fraction of the cost.

This review must be taken in the context of my spinal condition. I have little doubt that it is in every way equal to or better than the Total Gym. However, with a severe lower back disability the Weider is: 1. too heavy to move and set up 2. my back prohibits my using the gym as intended 3. Instructions are seriously insufficient 4. Cannot use at all and therefore a total waste of money. I have an as new, assembled Weider which does not appear desirable in the resale market. $150 is a significant amount to spend on equipment, though likely a good choice for most users, is a waste for me. Be cautious: If you have a similar back disability, and even if your professional rehab therapist highly recommends it, the odds are you too will be unable to benefit from an otherwise good, solid design. I wish I could get my money back, but the box is gone and packing/shipping 70 lbs is beyond my ability.Read full review

This machine is a great value. Very sturdy construction, and unlike other similar units, it has bungee-like tension cords that allow the user to add tension. My wife and I both use it and love it. Note that the picture does not show the unit fully extended for use. It's about twice as long as pictured. It is easy to use, easy to adjust and a great value at less than half of name brand competitors. The only drawback is that it does not have wheels for easy maneuvering when you have it folded up for storage.

This unit gives a good full body workout for a fraction of the cost of a Total Gym. Assembly was quick and easy. It does not store away easily, it requires a significant amount of room when not in use. But, overall a good piece of home exercise equipment.

Had a total gym which developed problems about a year in with the rollers on the bench. replaced them and had problems about a year in. replaced them had....... you get the picture. the rollers on this machine seem much firmer and I'm hopeful will last a few years at least. I use the machine twice daily for stretching and flexibility more than building up muscle. I have it set to the highest setting and with the bands it is a great workout. Don't need (or want) more than 20 minutes per workout to get what I need. as with any device made for the masses there are things I'll never use and things I wish it had but the way it comes is just fine for my purposes.
