4.0 out of 5 stars worth the investment, January 31, 2008

I orderd this to help recover from carpal tunnel and a locked lower back.
I've used it 3-4 four times a week for about a month. I love it, my back is back to normal my shoulders are really improving too. The only down side is the instructionals are only in vhs format and very limited.
I would highly recommend this machine for people wanting to get back the mobility they've lost and begin to wake up the spine.

For this price what would you expect. I'm a small guy who doesn't lift much weight. A larger person who lifts more weight might want a bigger machine but for me this works as good as any other home gym that you can pay into the thousands for. It folds up real nice. Its been mentioned that its hard to put together. It is. But it is worth it. When I finished assembly I had the exact number of bolts needed.

I can do all the home gym exercises on it: bench press, squats, arm curls ect. I could see where a strong male would want something bigger. As I can lift maximum weight and I'm fairly small.

The machine weighs 125 pounds so its sturdy and well put together. I think women would love this machine and men up to a point. Price is great .

4.0 out of 5 stars Great gym, terrible instructions to setup, December 26, 2008

By 

SK (AZ) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Stamina Gyrotonic Transformer 1000 (Sports)

Purpose: I bought this for my parents who are getting older and are starting to move less. This was cheaper than getting them a membership to a gym I know they would never use. Living in AZ, it's hard to go out during the summer because it's so hot so this seemed like a perfect solution for them to get a workout at home.

Age: My parents are both in their mid-50's. They are active in the garden but that's about it.

Setup Time: 2.5hrs. My father and I set up this equipment together and between the both of us, we still had some difficulty with the poorly written instructions. We both have a pretty good background in "putting stuff together".

Pros: low impact, easy to start using, enough resistance for the "older generation", compact, easy to fold up and fold out, comfortable to use for the non-experienced, low price, comfy bench, on-wheels design is awesome

Cons: setup requires a PhD or at least a masters in engineering, the instructions fail to mention that most of the parts are already put together (when you look at the nuts and bolts, the quantities don't match up to the manual's list), you need a lot of work space, setup gives a great workout that you won't need the gym equipment

Overall: definitely worth the purchase. At less than $150 shipped, you cannot pass this by. I am considering giving up my gym membership and buying this instead.

Rating: 4/5
