Overall a decent purchase
By R. Richardson
Pros:Very solid. I am 6' 2" 230lbs and have been training for 15yrs and feel comfortable on this machine regardless of how heavy I go.Great range of excercises that can be performed. the top attachment allows me to place the wide grip bar included in it and perform chinups. The footbar for seated cable rows also allows support to do situps.Minimal footprint. fits in the corner of my bedroom.Cons:Sparse directions. I am fairly machanically inclined but had trouble with the direction which was basically just a diagram. The completion of the pulley system should have had it's own set of directions.Too short for taller users. If you are over 6' like me you will have trouble with the range of motion not being long enough on back excercises. I believe in a very full range of motion and sometimes have trouble even at the gym though.Friction. The attachement for the weight slides along grabs preventing a smooth movement as one would be accustomed to from the gym. I'd noticed the gym machines have a fitting for a gease gun to keep their weight attachments lubricated. I greased the bar the weight attachement slides along and viola it eliminated much of the sticking and the movement was better. Again no mention of this in the directions.Overall I am happy with my purchase and use my machine regularly. If I could change one thing I would lower the seat 2 to 3 inches which would eliminate the range of motion problem for taller lifters.

Pro lat pulldown
By Reader 45
Firstly, be sure to understand this ships as 2 packages and may not come on the same day. I was not aware of this, most likely my own fault, but don't be alarmed if you get what you think is the machine and you are missing the two tall beam attachments. However, there is no tracking information so one simply has to wait till both eventually arrive.Once all parts arrive putting it together is pretty simple. However, be aware that you must feed the pulley cord through before installing the pulleys. This should be intuitive but I took a second look and hope I am not the only one who paused at this point. This took about 2 hours to un-box, check the parts and put together. I used a ratchet set and surmise not using one would take much, much longer.The pulleys run well and do not create an overwhelming amount of friction. So far both bars that were included have held up nicely (Some lat-pulldown bars are cheap and bend). I am 6'4'' 250 and the range of motion is fine for lat-pulldowns, triceps extensions, seated row, upright row, and curls. Also, because of the plates near the seated row, or where you would stand for curls, pushdowns, etc. the machine does not tilt, move etc. as I have read about with others. the only time I can't get a full range of motion is when trying to do behind the neck pulldowns, which i am not a fan of anyway. Also, make sure you position the seat correctly or it will feel short and bunched, I made this mistake when I first put it in not realizing my error. Regarding weight, this machine has proved to take at least 3 45lb plates on each side, I can't lift more at this time but it feels like the machine is sturdy enough to take more. Thus, this machine works great. One should, however, purchase olympic adapters if using olympic size plates.Lastly, for what you get the price is well worth it seeing as the machine allows for many isolated movements without changing anything other than maybe the weight and a bar. It is worth it simply as a triceps pushdown and curl machine. I would recommend this due to is versatility and sturdiness. As to long term use I can not attest to as of now.

Well Made Equipment
By Matthew Peters
After assembling and using this piece of equipment for several weeks I have to say I am very pleased with this purchase. It is a very stout piece of equipment. The assembly instructions could be better (not very detailed, only an exploded assembly drawing and a package contents quantity list were included). I wished the plate posts were 2" rather than 1" but that isn't a flaw in the equipment.Also, be mindful if you are doing standing curls to remove the seat, I didn't the first time and the friction wore a hole in the seat edge.
