Pros & Cons

Pros

The md-9010g is an unbeatable value if you can get it for msrp of about $1,050. Ordered this because of the covid 19 pandemic going on in our country right now. The machine is very sturdy and built well. Once together the machine is sturdy, smith rack...  Read More

The back weight rack runs very smoothly after spraying a little silicone on the bar it slides on. The barbell rides very smoothly on the track with minimal to no wobble. The range of motion is good and the bar travels smoothly.

The stand is very solid, min vibration-for bench press bar with 200 to 250lbs. The finish and cushions are very nice and appealing. I'm over my initial irritation with the assembly.

The nuts/bolts/washers are shrink-wrapped to 3 or 4 cardboard sheets and numbered. We make sure every nut and washer were in place and tighten. Each bolt is individually numbered.



Cons

Initial review right out of the box is two thumbs down! The material used for the padded areas seems like it won't last long. The company they use is terrible and you won't get it in time. It’s mediocre at best.

The bar rides up an down on guides which prevents natural movement and will get you injured. The bench is kind of skewed. Pulleys work ok but lat pull down is awkward. The weight for the pulley system slides up and down on a square chrome shaft/beam.

Parts in side were dinged, chipped, and scratched. Water and a white chalky powder everywhere inside and all over the parts. Numerous chips and gouges and a couple really rusted parts as well.

Putting this thing together is a time consuming nightmare. Horrible directions. It takes a lot of work to get setup.

I neglected to do this before testing all the motions and the cable slipped out of the pulleys in a couple spots and rubbed on ...  Read More

Price


For the price we paid it seems to be a very good value and i would buy this workout machine again


I am pleased to report that this thing is the real deal


This was the best 1000 bucks i’ve ever spent


I also requested a new poster that shows all the different workouts you can do on machine and they sent it at no extra cost

Shipping


This gym set was delivered earlier than arranged which was nice


The delivery guy even helped me push them up to my door with his dolly


The delivery people kept in contact with me sent me pictures when they delivered it


The delivery was approximately 1 hour later than the scheduled window but this was not a problem because we were home all day

Packaging/appearance


Also having built countless things from boxes it seems everything requires assembly these days i was even more impressed that 1...  Read More


The second box was received with missing parts from fedex


Also—the small reinforcing plates parts34 35 36 37 and 101 all come in two bags


The instructions were easy to follow and the packaging was good

Parts101 and 34 are also very similar


This is as good asany gym all rolled into one


I opt to use the regular barbell over the smith machine
