I orderded the Dialed Motion Sidewinder in April 2024 for $908. It arrived in October 2024. I remember that the packaging was top notch, everything arrived in perfect condition. Since then I have used it regularly for flyes, tricep press downs, bicep curls, presses, lateral raises, hip adduction/abduction, face pulls, etc. I have zero complaints about the system. Due to the nature of the machine, the weights will swing a little bit in use. But in 1.5 years of use the weights have bumped into the upright maybe two times, and that was when I was using particularly "heaving" type technique. The pull feels extremely smooth, I would compare it to any high end functional trainer in that regard. And the space saving nature of this piece cannot be beat. Before I bought it I had been considering getting a standalone functional trainer, but this takes up zero additional floor space. Now in the age of racks that do it all, I am still not tempted to to get an Ares or Rogue FM model. I find that I like having a less cluttered rack, and having this as the only addition to my power rack enables me to set up various stations without having to break down or move lots of stuff to get it ready to work. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to add functional trainer type movements.
