EXM2500LPS

Pros This thing is built Really good materials, thick metal looks like the crimping on the cables is really good. I will have to spend more time on the gym to see how the cables actually hold up, but so far this thing is Big ,Solid and well thought out. You can almost do anything you need to do on this gym add a flat bench and some dumbbells put in something for cardio and you could definitely have a great home gym set up. This thing has high pulley, mid pulley low pulley, chest press, chest fly lat pull down, leg extension and hamstring curls and many more exercises. You can get a leg press addition, it can do just about everything you need. You can register it for a full lifetime warranty. Cons It's big and heavy so make sure you have enough room for it. It helps to Mark out on the floor with tape or chalk exactly where you're going to put this to make sure you have enough room around it to be able to do all the exercises. The instructions that come with it are absolutely horrible I had to go online and search for a step-by-step manual to put this thing together. It is not a one-man job it's going to take at least two people to put this together. It was missing some parts but Body Solid in Chicago seems to be quite responsive as far as taking care of the customers, and they're sending me the two pieces that I need. Having said that the parts that were missing were nothing major, just one Bolt that you can get at any hardware store and one washer. So far I'm quite happy with the machine with 200 lb of weight it'll be enough for now if I have any problems or any comments, I'll do updates to my review.

This my 3rd multi-gym, I assembled about 95% of it. Do your research, ask your seller about the original instructions, then get a 3rd set of instructions. The instructions that came with the gym were not complete, it left out the weight stack assembly entirely. Took me about 20 hours to assemble it, the last 5% I needed assistance since I had surgery. Read the instructions, get a 2nd and 3rd different set. Bolts and nuts for measuring is in inches but in reality it's metric. I was missing one item, one seat needs fixing but we can handle that. Not for the faint of heart. It moves really well, I wish the pin locked better in the weight stack. Do your research, I did okay assembling it because well...I have experience. Hubby said he would have quit, I don't quit.

So I have only been using this product for approximately 1 week now and it may be early but everything feels great. The stations are sturdy and I never really feel like anything is going to break. It really feels like a quality home gym. The only problem with this order was that there appeared to be lost items during shipment. To this I communicated these losses with the team and each time they were kind, courteous and exceptionally helpful. Not enough can be said about this part of the buying experience as each member of their team was so positively responsive to my needs.
