I picked mine up on marketplace for a decent cost. It works well for me but I would be hesitant to buy a new one at full price. There are many other options out there for a few extra bucks that would perform much better.

Awesome piece! Solid! I like the variations in the curve on this bar compared to similar cable attachment bars.

If you just want weights then these are good buy. This was one of the first items I bought. I got them off marketplace, still new in the box. Warning, they really smell bad for a while when you first unbox them. I'm not a weight dropper so I just keep these on some of my plate loaded machines. Also a good cheap option if you have some machines that are plate eaters. If you're doing a lot of barbell dropping I'd probably go another direction.

Awesome! Wish I would have bought this sooner! Definitely easier on the wrists.

Decent machine at the price point and probably one of the better ones for the plate loaded category. I secured mine to the wall with some black pipe and fittings and this really helped stabilize it and take the wobble out. I also swapped out the nylon pulleys for aluminum and that smoothed it out a bit as well. Definitely a plate eater though. If you like pec decks, but don't want to make the jump to an expensive selectorized machine, it's a good choice.

One of the best in the budget category. If you're trying to stay under $400 for this type of machine then it's a solid choice. It's definitely a plate eater, especially on leg extensions and in prone there's no angle, you are flat. I only recommend it if you're trying to stay within a budget. At some point I will probably move on to something better.

I picked mine up on marketplace for a steal at only $100 and that's the only reason I have it. It's ok and it has a small footprint. Due to the angle it's a plate eater. I would not not recommend buying a new one at full price. Many other better options out there for just a few extra bucks.

Good piece for the price point. I modified mine with a few cheap enhancements that really made it much more solid. I secured the top of it to the back wall which really stabilized it a lot. Just used some black pipe and fittings. Then I added and extended both the leg hold down pads and low row foot plates. This enables us larger guys to get a wider stance. Also added a pulley above the low row pulley. This was needed help clear the new low row foot plate.
