“Lets start with the most important part, the design flaws. 1. The numbers on the weight stacks are blocked by the metal cover. I assume the cover is there as a safety measure, but instead of making it straight, it curves in the middle. This makes it so the numbers in the middle of the stack are extremely difficult to read. On one side its manageable, but on the other side I literally have to walk over and look around the cover to see the numbers. If you intend on doing a lot of drop sets or rapid weight changes, you are going to want to only use the easy to read side or it gets old fast. 2. The pully height is on the short side. The machine is already short to fit in home gyms, but once you account for the size of the pully mechanism, and the handle you are using, the working area is even shorter. Im only 5'10 and when I do tricep pull downs from the highest position the stack almost bottoms out when I'm at the top of the motion. 3. Sliding the pully up and down is difficult in certain spots. Maybe mine is slightly warped or slightly out of spec, but there are a couple heights on each side that its a nightmare to adjust the height on. 4. One side does not pull as smooth as the other. Instead of a fluid motion, I can feel the cable stutter a little as I pull it. Not so bad if im doing 1 at a time but any time I use both its very noticeable. 5. No matter how tight the bolt is on the support feet, they can still move up and down. There have been a few times I've looked over and noticed they had moved and were no longer touching the ground. 6. The vertical bars the weight plates slide accross are lose. Every rep makes a small clanking sound from the bars moving around. Either a tighter fit or a rubber grommet would be nice. Now for shipping. The company that shipped it refused to bring it to my house because they didn't feel comfortable driving their trucks on my road. My father in law who lives in the last house used to drive 18 wheelers and he had no problem parking them at his house. Once they decided they couldn't ship it, they told me they would have to contact titan fitness to have them send another delivery company to pick it up. After about a week they told me they still were not getting a reply from titan. So, without any indication it was ever going to arrive, I had to borrow a truck, barrow a trailer, drive 30 minutes, and pay tolls to go pick it up myself. I've spent thousands of dollars with titan. I chose this machine over the competitors with better reviews because id had good experiences with them. But for how much this cost, the experience and the product didnt live up to what I expected. Other than what I've mentioned here, the machine is fine. I use it pretty much every day. Its just not at the level of quality I was expecting.”

“Excellent quality. Easy to setup with a second person. Been using for a few weeks now and no complaints. Good variety of attachments, wish a curling bar was included though. Wife and young son are able to use for their workouts. Only thing I have maxed the stack at was back rows, so you may need to get creative to increase the weight there. Highly recommended.”

“Love the equipment. Wish the attachments were different though. Wish it had lat bar instead the the straight bar. Wish I new you were gonna drop another $100 from the previous price drop cause I would have waited. That wasn't fair since I bought a lot from Titan. Send me a lat bar and all is forgiven lol”

“It was easy to put together. It comes in one crate, and have at least 2 people in order for the machine to be put together. Have a big socket wrench for easier assembly. A small tool is included, but I wouldn't rely on it. Mind when you install the weight stacks. Make sure you get the correct quantity when you stack the first side, because you don't want to have to go back and do it again if you stacked less than or greater than. Also, mind the top piece that goes inside the stacks, (Male Part) and unscrew to adjust so the cable can be connected in the proper notch above in order for the top wieght to be touching the 20lb weight with no gap. If not, the pin won't have anything to catch when you poke the pin catch into the bottom 200lb weight. Again, this comes down to adjusting the top male piece just so, for the pin to catch in any of the weight stacks below. This is normal for any of these kind of machines. It's top quality and is super smooth. Oil is included, so some time down the road, you will probably have to add a little drop of oil to the cables, but I haven't after a month of using it, and it's super smooth and I can tell it will last for years.”

“Great machine! Was using a cable crossover machine. Only upper and lower pulleys. Plate loaded. I use this Titan functional training machine for +/- 75% of my training exercises. Pulleys work very smoothly. I would strongly recommend this machine.”
