Ok. Yes I am 67 years old. Have gone through a number of medical issues when I was in my 50’s. Open heart surgery to fighting and beating cancer and a whole lot of other things in between. Now that I am retired. I did not want to deteriorate sitting on a chair in front of a TV for the rest of my life. I wanted to get back in shape but found gyms, well lets just say not to my liking. I also found that trying to do any kind of exercise was very difficult and hurt. I just did not have the strength anymore. My Dr. Recommended the total gym because I could adjust the degree of difficulty to my limits. I looked at the total gym but it was a bit on the expensive side. Then I found the GR8FLEX and was impressed with all that came with it compared to the Total Gym. Plus it also came with additional tension springs should I require more resistance. It arrived in one big heavy box. It was easy to set up and get right into working out. This will give you a work out so don’t be fooled. I found it easy to start with and by adjust the degree of difficulty I was able to perform a number of exercises I could not do before. I have had it for three months now and have increased up 5 levels already. I also lost 40lbs. It is very well made and the customer service was great. I was missing the cell phone holder. When I contacted them their reply was swift and explained that as soon as they get more because they were on back order they would send me one. Three weeks went by and I received and email stating that they had not forgotten me and are expecting the shipment any day. Four days later I received it. Customer service that follows up? What more can you ask of a company. I would highly recommend this equipment to anyone wanting to get in shape and would rather do it at home.

I will start by saying that I am very happy with my Gr8flex gym. I got mine before the price hike, so for me, it was a great choice. I replaced a 10-year-old base model Total Gym that I had received as a gift and had grown out of. I had looked at the TG Fit and just couldn't justify the cost. So, the Pros: This thing is built very well. The pulleys are very smooth and the rollers are the same. I thought the resistance bands would be a gimmick, but they are a great idea and work very well to give you that extra work out. The additional attachments are great. Dip bars, ab attachment, squat deck, and wing bars take this to the next level, fit great, and are sturdy. For me at least, another big pro is the customer service I received. I'll touch on that in a minute. The cons: I don't have many. The packing could be a little better as my unit has a few scratches from the pulleys. Some bubble wrap around them would be a big plus. The name labels were bowed and loose, so I pulled them off. Problem solved. I was missing the D-ring to attach the leg pulley. 3 of the plastic caps were broken on arrival. And last, the wheels had a flat spot. So the customer service. I had emailed a couple of times before my purchase to ask a few questions. I received a reply in an hour, and usually not more than a few hours. When I received my unit, I immediately emailed with photos of what was damaged and missing and included my shipping address. I had shipping confirmation the same day and received the plastic caps, D-ring, and 4 new rollers within a few days. I haven't received service like this in quite some time and was very happy. So, if you go into this purchase with the realization that you may have some hiccups initially, you won't be disappointed. Is this a TG killer? At the $1600 price point, I'd call it very strong competition, given all of the attachments that are included, as well as the resistance bands. At the $600 price point that I purchased mine at? Absolutely. I've used mine quite a bit since I got it, and this thing is great. I don't regret the purchase at all. If they could work out the kinks with the packing to prevent damage and better quality control on the wheels, this over a TG would be a no brainer. Also, if you're reading this Gr8flex...how about including an assembly/user's manual and a beginners workout book like TG has with theirs? To wrap up...a great machine, with great customer service (in my case at least) and, at the lower price, a great value for the price.

I took a chance buying this machine from a company that I had never heard of. But the positive Amazon reviews were overwhelming. But the main thing that swayed my buying decision in favor of the GR8FLEX was that in comparing to the TotalGym XL7 at $398.99, the closest match that I could find at that price point, they seem pretty close with respect to extra attachments. But the GR8FLEX at $388.00 comes with 15 resistance levels and if that's not enough, it also includes 4 rubber resistance bands that can individually be attached to the bottom of the glide seat for added levels of resistance, the TotalGym XL7 only has 12 resistance levels and no resistance bands. Then there is the Warranty. The GR8FLEX warranty covers EVERYTHING.(PERIOD). If "Anything" breaks on this machine, they will replace it. The build quality is as good as I have ever seen. It is pre-assembled and simply unfolds right out of the box. You just have to familiarize yourself with the attachments. While using, it is easy to adjust the resistance levels, the glide seat rolls smoothly and quietly on the rails. It is just a joy to use. And for anyone out there who has experienced the difficulty of trying to stay on an exercise routine and has never tried a body weight resistance machine such as this. I can only tell you that there is something magical about pulling your body up and down those rails that actually makes it fun. And if you can have fun exercising, you will keep doing it. Now you may ask, can this machine really give you a real workout? I am here to tell you . . . HELL YEAH!!! This machine will make your muscles BURN. But remember, you have 15 levels of resistance, just start on the low end and increase your resistance accordingly. Bottom line . . . I am very happy I bought the GR8FLEX and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to buy a high quality machine at an affordable price.

Sturdy unit, but almost impossible to use. Usually takes me about 15 mins to even set up if unit has been folded. But the major problem is that very difficult to raise or lower sled and once moved the safety pin is almost impossible to get in place. This process take between 5 and 15 minutes because none of the holes line up. Only by standing on machine and trying to twist unit does the pin occasionally go in and then usually don’t change setting because it would entail another 5 to 15 mins each adjustment. Once set up everything works fine but what good is equipment you can’t adjust and this unit is useless for my wife as she can’t get the pin in no matter what. Update. After breaking in a little easier to make adjustments, but still very hard to put up for storage or unfold to use still.
