Well built, steel construction

Excellent well built piece of exercise equipment. Lots of attachments that are easy to switch out with pull pin, except the dip bars. I had to tilt to the side to see where to place the pin. Lots of videos on YouTube to give you workout ideas. I highly recommend for strength training.

Outstanding Price

I bought this product 3 weeks ago and have not used each component added. So far my workout has been intense and productive. I really feel empowered to lose my weight. One exception the picture shown two leg cable and I only received one. I am reaching out now to Sams club for the second one. Despite the missing piece I feel this is money well spent in comparison to other sites advertising the total gym. I would have given 5 stars if two leg pieces arrived as shown on Sam’s site will correct to give stars when Sam rep responds and second leg piece is obtained

Very Happy With The Total Gym!

I debated on whether to buy a total gym but decided to give it a try and am so happy I did! I am very pleased with the quality of the machine for what I paid. After pricing at several other online sites, I decided this was the best value. The product arrived in the timeline promised and included all the attachments mentioned. The wing attachment with this unit is two pieces verses the one piece in the videos, but you can still do the exercises or do something similar. I have had this product for 3 weeks and have used it almost everyday. I am 50 and bought it to strengthen and tone and it is working! It also really engages your core which is a great benefit. I can exercise at my convenience which I love! My husband has been using it as well and likes it too. There is a learning curve to figuring out the attachments and the exercises you can do. The 2 DVDs are good but there are also a lot of videos you can watch online to get ideas. I am excited about this machine because I really feel like I will be using it for a long time!

Easy to set up!

I didn't take it out the box waiting for my Brother to help me put it together, well 3 weeks went by and it's still in the box after lusting after this product for years, so I decide let's watch a youtube video on how to put together, and the instructor was a female, I said if she can do it so can I, I was so proud of myself because I'm a girly girl who normally call on my Bro to put together/build/fix everything! But I DID IT, mainly because it comes put together out the box !

Senior Total Workout

I am a senior and I purchased the Total Gym XL7 to ensure that I could get a total body workout no matter what the weather whenever I wanted to. I found it pretty easy to assemble (most things were already assembled, and the attachments were the only parts that I needed to be added. Being kind on lockdown seemed to make me weak and I wanted to build my overall body strength. I love that fact that you can adjust the resistance to your level and adjust it as you build your strength. I would recommend this item to a friend

Good Total Gym for a beginner

This item is not the latest and greatest Total Gym has to offer, however for a workout beginner it's a good place to start. Item is sturdy and well-made and will probably last many years. It is much heavier than I thought it would be. Not practical to fold it up after each use. You need a space where you can leave it set-up, which fortunately I have. The price at Sam's Club was excellent, the lowest I found anywhere while researching this. The DVD's provided are not for a beginner. The written material that comes with it does provide good guidance for a beginner.

Quality Product but Poor Setup Instructions

I love my new Total Gym! It has many attachments, 2 dvds and is well built. I wondered how good the quality would be at such a low price point but no need to worry; it should last for many many years. The included instructions are very poor, however, and I had to search online to help with the setup. I’m looking forward to exercising on my Total Gym for many years to come. Thank you Sam’s for offering such a great product at a very reasonable price!

Good product with minor irritations. . .

The Total Gym, so far, seems solid and works smoothly. You do have to be careful not to lean to one side while doing an exercise, and to get on and off carefully, because the sliding bench can become unseated from the roller quite easily. The mat sent with it is kind of a joke, since it barely reaches under both legs, so that it constantly needs adjusting in order to stay on. The directions say to use a mat under the gym or put it on carpet. So now I have two mats, one that came with it for one end, and another yoga mat of my own for the other. Kind of a weird thing to skimp on. Also, and I don't know if this is Sam's Club's fault or Federal Express, but my delivery date went from the 19th of January, to the 15th, back to the 19th, and then the 22nd, which is the day on which I finally got it.

Decent Machine

I bought this for my wife and daughters. They like it and I haven't heard any complaints about it, yet. They like to work out, but don't like free weights or weight machines. This is neither of those, it is entirely different. Easy to assemble and some of the exercises are interesting. You can get a good work out from the machine; my wife and kids just have to get used to some of the movements. They can be a bit odd, from a traditional workout. Easy to assemble since most of it is already put together. Directions are easy to follow, and the components seem like they are of decent quality. It doesn't take up that much floor space, it can be folded down and stored under a bed if the bed is tall enough. Overall, not a bad machine. Well, now it is time to for me to work out. Time to go and eat some brisket.

Never too old

This machine is a great way to get a workout. So far, I've just been doing things on my own, not as instructed, still I'm building up stamina after only 2 weeks. When I first watched the video, I could barely begin the warm-up exercises. Now I can do each one, although not the full length that the trainer does. I'm excited to continue my journey. On a side note, I'm a 66 year old male and I purchased this because I am going through radiation therapy for cancer and I was told that exercise was a great way to combat fatigue. So far, it's working.
