Not as sturdy as expected. Rowing is below par. Get a shaky feeling overall.

Very easy to put together with 2 ppl it took approx. 2 hours! Simple directions, not a whole lot of parts and everything labeled. Small footprint also. Nice workout for both men/women.

I bought this because I started working from home alot. I do the advanced training and love it. Once you get the routine down it's not even noticable having to switch cables. I'm 27 and I already feel myself getting in shape. You can also upgrade the strength.

My background: Recreational lifter for past 7 years, 3-4x/week, goals - athleticism (speed, endurance, some muscular/strength gains, flexibility, maintenance of low body fat %) Parts: heavy duty, most parts felt durable, rods were a bit bent when received, I was missing handles and plate support for the rods During use: As some buyers say - rods true weight are LESS than advertised. Used a pulley scale and the 50 lb rod and 75% bend was about 30 lb's. It felt stable while exercising. Only 2 positions for bench - flat/45 incline. The upper bar moves a bit, so had to add extra washers than manual mentioned to keep it solid. Leg press with the belt felt EXTREMELY light. The feel is as expected; resistance is more obvious when rods are bent at half to full bend. Bowflex support: extremely slow, e-mail was useless, calling required HOURS of waiting. Good thing Walmart was nice enough to help me out instead and give me a partial refund for missing parts, and I was able to purchase new 3rd party handles. Overall, good enough to do my resistance training workouts while away from the gym. Don't think this would hold up over time due to decrease weight feel of the rods. Definitely a great back up once gyms open up again. Great for people starting out, or who don't use "heavier" resistance.

Great home gym. Used to be listed on here for $543. Don't pay $700. Got to the Bowflex website and pay $599

This is our 2nd Bowflex. Great for home workouts when we don't want to go to the gym. Esp. during cold and flu season. It took 2 of us about 4 hours to assemble. We took our time to avoid any mistakes. No missing pieces.

I love my Bowflex, I would recommend Bowflex to my family and friends! A must have if you are looking for a workout machine for your home gym! The shipping from Walmart was quick too! Way to go Walmart keep up the good work!

one star only because shipping was a nightmare. walmart and FedEx failed to give me proper shipping information and blamed me for it it also cost me 175$ to have it brought to my house order at your own risk. however the product is perfect just as advertised

decent looking machine highly doubt it has great quality as it is made in China so if you want a American made gym this isnt the gym for you.

easy to assemble. I like the various exercises but find having to move the bands each time a little time consuming. But love the Bowflex pr1000!
