 No weights May 28, 2008
By Robert P. Bain
No weights come with this product. I like the gym but the directions are horrible.it took me 7 hours to assemble and I almost gave up twice.

 Well made, compact but no weights May 24, 2009
By Jessica
This gym is well made, solid, but comes with no weights. It's small enough that it will fit in any room - I have it in a 6x4ft area.
The instructions leave a lot to the imagination but with that said, it only took me 4 1/2 hours to put together. Make sure that you lay all the parts out and put them in order so you know which part is which before you begin.

Horrible directions Sep 25, 2009
By W. Linton
"aikicop"
Ditto from the other comments about the directions. There are no directions...period. There is only a blow up illustration, which seems to have been written by a non-english speaker. Even the illustrations (which are ink drawn and not jpg. photos) lack any significant detail.
Some small parts are not even listed (which bolt to use). Some others are listed by size (in metric) on the blow up, and not by item title (you know...insert bolt "a" into part "z"). I can't imagine why a U.S. company would allow this to happen. Make and insert your own directions guys!
Also, of the illustrated blow ups, of which there were four pages, some of the items were out of order, and had to be redone (pulleys). I ordered a weight stack extra. There were no directions on how to adapt the basic machine. I asked Powerline, and the only response I got was to remove the weight stack risers. Ooops. Except just doing that meant that I can't put the selector all the way to the bottom of the weight stack now. That explanation was not obviously enough. I suspect that the black rubber donuts (spelled "dounts" in the parts index) have to be removed...which now will mean partial disassembly. I'll just say no to that and use a couple extra five pound plates on the free weight bar for the machine.
You can go to Poweline's site to see the 'directions' yourself. Take a look before buying this product!

 Great equiptment Mar 05, 2009

I have owned this weight loss machine for about 10 years & I love it. My son put it together & I haven't had any trouble with it. The butterfly extension works wonders. I highly recommend this machine.

not for the serious Dec 30, 2010
By bob mcbober
Poor instructions, will take you a long time (most of a day) to figure out. Engineering suited to small kids or women.Cheap pulleys do not move well. Parts stared breaking after a couple of years of steady use. Cheap though if you do homework, but no substitute for the real thing.
