 Nice gym but difficult assembly and no use instructions Dec 15, 2010
By LazyGuy
First let me say that this is a nice quality gym with plenty of optins for use once you get it assembled. There are two big problems though.
The first problem is that there are a LOT of parts. Putting this together along with the PLPX Leg Press took approximately 8 hours (and I am typically able to assemble even complicated items fairy quickly). the diagrams for assembly are not that easy to read and can lead you to assemble some parts incorrectly.
The second issue is that there are NO instructions or diagrams on how to properly use this product once it is assembled. I'm a (hopefully) former lazy guy who purchased this gym as part of my overall exercise equipment to get into better shape. I don't have a lot of experience with gyms, but this product assumes you know what you are doing. When I called Powerline to ask if they had anything to help me with the use of their product, I was told that they only provide use instructions with their "higher end" gyms. While I do understand this is not the most expensive gym possible, it's far from the low end of home gyms. I do not think that it is unreasonable to expect Powerline provide use instructionsfor their product. After pushing the Powerline phone support person, he got permission from his supervisor to send me an instructional video for another model gym. Hopefully I will be able to use this to help me develop my exercise plan and utilize this equipment correctly.
So...if you don't mind taking the time to do the assembly and you are experienced and know in advance how to properly use the equipment, this is a good buy. If you are not experienced (like me), you'll be left thinking that you paid almost $1000 ($1300 with the optinal leg press) for a gym that you then have to go figure out how to use on your own. It is very disappointing that Powerline did not make the small investment necessary to help it's customers use the equipment they purchase.

 P2X Machine Jul 04, 2011
By Kenneth Russell
This thing is a nightmare to put together. It might be a good machine but I'll probably never know. There is not one page in the "manual" that tells you how to use this machine. That is why it gets one star. The so called manual tells you, on page 45, to refer to the enclosed poster for routines. What poster? There is a bag of nylon straps and one with six metal clips and no indication of what they are for. Stay away from this company and deal with one that at least tells the customer how to use their product.
