This was a pleasant, early Christmas present. Shipping arrived just as scheduled. 7 days after online purchase. Here's the truth: The instructions are VERY POOR. NO words (I assume so they can sell it non-english speaking countries), just 16 illustrations and supposed quantities...which were wrong (incomplete) in at least 3 instances. NOTE: I called Marcy Customer Support to ask about part #51, told the CSR that I'd ID'ed 2 errors in the directions (at that point) she said nothing and didn't ask what those errors were...That's the behavior of a Company who doesn't care about the customer...although so is not including WRITTEN directions for a product with over 200 parts...The hardware IDing and packaging were VERY GOOD and the Gym is stable and sturdy....cables are easily adjusted and move smoothly...so far...it's only been 2 weeks. I completed the assembly in about 3.75 hours...over 2 afternoons.

Love it.

I like it

I bought this in store last week of Dec even though it shows no stock. It comes as a 3 pc set of boxes. No damage to anything and was happy that all the screws, nuts and stuff were labeled. Instructions are VERY basic and get worse as the build goes on. Pay very close attention to your steps bc the instructions leave steps out and it gets frustrating as you get to assembling the pulleys. I luckily had a similar gym setup from Walmart years ago so I was familiar with how it assembled otherwise I would have been lost bc the instructions missed a lot of steps and a few pages at the end. Took about 4 hours to assemble with me and my son. It's a nice beginner setup and easy to use with many workouts. Worth the price once you get it built.

With many products that seem to be built cheaply, this one surprised me a bit. It is built well, looks great and is extremely functional. This is a great home gym and I feel lucky to have chosen it. Assembly will require focus and patience but you can do it. This product comes with my highest recommendation.

This took my 2 adult sons 4 hours to complete, the directions were horrible but YouTube saved the day. I feel it would have taken less time but there was plenty of arguments along the way. It's a great size for home equipment and does enough for me. One of the boys is a professional body builder and said it's a great “off day” use for him. It will be perfect for someone of my level.

Nice home gym. Hope it lasts longer time. It took just more than 4 hours to put together. Instructions to install are detailed in the beginning. It seems like the person lost the patience at later part of setting up the instructions. But, easy enough. Once installed, Happy. Better than buying several separate exercise machines. This is something that encourages to exercise at home compared to other equipments that allows only one type of workout.

Product is great, experience at the store was terrible

It was horrible to assemble. The directions were a jumbled, confusing mess!

Assembly took some time but it all worked out, machine works well, super great value for a home gym.
