Well Built and an Excellent Value

During High School and in the military I did a lot of weight training. Ok I'm not 16 nor 21 anymore. I'm now in my 40's and am an active cyclist and skier. I bought this machine based upon the Consumer Reports write ups (it was rated number one) so my wife and I can quickly and easily do some strength training. My key requirements were size Lat and Leg exercises and Durability/Quality. Only way to review this is to break it down a bit:



Assembly: A lot of parts Directions are passable but not great. Biggest problem I had was determining which bolt for which hole. It took a good 4 hours to assemble and I'm pretty good at this kind of stuff.



Customer Support: Had a plate break in shipping and it took under 2 minutes to get to a human being. (you deal with body solid directly for support.) He made note that a plate was broken and asked me to finish assembly and give him a call back to make sure I didn't need anything else. I finished up and had no other issues. Called back to his direct extenision and he drop shipped the plate from the warehouse. I'd say that was great service.



Exercises:

Leg Exercises - Leg lift for Quads is great. The standing one legged hamstring curl took a bit to get used to but given the small size of the machine I'll take it.

Bench Press - Very smooth and you get two hand positions one for more inner pec and the other for more outer. Downside is that the start position is a little far back but now that I think about it I may have the bench arm on backwards. Doh!

Lats/Back - This is where I believe this machine earns it keep. It provides a Lat pulldown and a seated row position. This was key to me and it performs as expected. (note I'm using this for toning and not body building. A 160 pound stack works for me.)

Shoulders/Arms - The curl bar thats included does has a static handle so its not good for curls. You will need to purchase a bar that has rotating handles. Since I use dumbbells for these exercises it didn't matter much. I'm ordering a single rotating curl bar so my wife can add some exercises.



Overall I'd say its a great value for someone who wants a smaller in home machine to cover a lot of exercies and wants to add strength training to their workout. If your looking to get 'Pumped Up' you'd be better with Free weights or a Gym membership. I looked for a used one but they didn't last very long and had a pretty high resale value. I am certainly happy with my purchase and now need to flip that bench press attachment around.

Great Product



This just arrived today. Took about 2 hours to assemble but it's pretty easy. I almost bought this from another site because they were going to assemble it (would've been 200 extra dollars for that) and I am very glad I did it myself.



This unit is extremely sturdy and well put together. I was a bit nervous to buy this because I have young kids I did not want to trash it. Believe me they couldn't! This is far too well-designed and durable.



Worked out for about an hour and I love it. Lots of exercises you can do (both muscular and cardio) and you can really feel it.



As others have noted on other models I can see how the weights (200 lbs) might not be enough but I am not looking to become the Incredible Hulk. This unit is perfect to stay fit and not let those holiday meals get the upper hand.



I really recommend this to anyone who wants to work at home and does not want to be bored with the same old routine (treadmill stationary bike etc.)



Great job Bowflex!More detail ...

Great small home gym

This home gym is small and compact. Designed really for general fitness and strength training not for huge body-building. It needs assembly but that only took me about 4hrs by myself. The only thing I would say is don't follow the pulley installation instructions. Place the cable and pulley on the machine in order of feeding the cable then tighten the pulley bolts to the machine.



This machine does just what you need as a home-fitness gym. It is compact and both my wife and I find it great to maintain tone without wanting huge bulk. It has 150lb in stacked weight which is fine for your general fitness needs. If you want larger weights then I would buy some free-weights but if you want a decent well put together home gym that works arms legs & chest then you can't go wrong with this machine.More detail ...
