“Great machine”

This was a great deal I got. I use this every other day and it has helped me get in better shape and lose weight. Real easy to use. Can go at your own pace.

Weider 10 lb. Olympic Handle Hammertone Plate

Weider 10 lb. Olympic Handle Hammertone Plate

“The Weider plates are solid and easy to handle”

Cant complain, bought these plates in a variety of weights and use them for bench, curl bar and incorporate them in various exercises. They have easy grip handles, slid on/off the bars with ease. Works great for my home gym. For the price they do the job.

As Seen On TV AB Circle Pro

As Seen On TV AB Circle Pro

“Ab Circle Pro-- liked at 1st...then hated it in the end.”

I bought the AbCircle Pro w/dreams of flat, hard abs. And at first it worked great, I could feel the work my abs were doing. I worked out on it for 15-20 minutes 2-3X a day. Well, the life expectancy of the plastic rollers is about 3-4wks. I kept having to order replacements then wait for my husband to do the change! Finally, I just gave up...it it now rests in peace w/the spiders in my basement!

Weider 2980 X Weight System

Weider 2980 X Weight System

“Good weight system for the price”

I bought this weight system for my husband. He had a very hard time putting it together, but other than that he has enjoyed using it. For the price, we were surprised at the overall quality of the machine. It has enough weight that my husband gets a good workout, but the weight is also appropriate for me and my 15 year-old son to use. Overall, I would recommend the Weider 2980 X Weight System for anyone looking for a reasonably priced weight system.

“It really does work”

I thought that this weight would get too easy too soon but it's alot harder than it looks. You actually feel your arms getting tired in the first couple of minutes. Great for anyone looking to tone their upper arm muscles.

As Seen On TV Total Gym Achiever

As Seen On TV Total Gym Achiever

“The total gym is effective.”

I am pleased with my purchase of the Total Gym Achiever. The only complaint I have is that the pulley system is difficult to disconnect from the glide board. I struggle and get frustrated almost every time it must be switched.

Weider Olympic-Sized Chrome Curl Bar and Dumbbell Bars

Weider Olympic-Sized Chrome Curl Bar and Dumbbell Bars

“Poor quality and design with plastic end caps”

The big problem was sliding the clips on over the plastic end caps. The clips wouldn't fit over the caps and barely fit on the bar. The other issue was the large dumbbell clips. It makes it awkward to workout when the clips are junting out. Would have been better with smaller clips. Picked it up and took it back same day.

Weider Weight System Pro 6900

Weider Weight System Pro 6900

“The Weider Pro 6900 is great once put together.”

This machine is perhaps the most difficult thing I have ever put together in my 54 years even with following the directions step-by-step. The screws and bolts are labeled extremely well; however, the actual structure pieces are not labeled at all nor even illustrated in the front of the manual- an easy-to-remove sticker would definitely go a long way. Another reviewer indicated he had two packets of grease, I had one so check first. The cable threading was not too bad, but make certain you determine the high cable and the low cable - only a four inch difference. My first mistake. Also the three...

Weider Weight Bench Pro 340 L

Weider Weight Bench Pro 340 L

“Weider Pro 340L is a greatbuy!”

I got this as A gift from my wife and I could not ask for more.It's A good mid-sized bench,very sturdy and doesn't wobble or shake during my entire work out routine.My favorite thing about this bench is the non attached weight rack! I can do several types of work out's with the ease of moving my rack around to my comfort. I wish they would of added A rest for the preacher pad but I just flip the weight rack around towards the preacher pad and set my curl bar on there in between reps, not the best but will do (just an idea)!Other than that It's A great buy for A cheap price.Would definitely recommend...

Weider Weight System Pro 8900

Weider Weight System Pro 8900

“Wish I had never bought it !!! ”

This was without a doubt the worst assembly project I have ever undertaken. The instructions were vague and the illustration's confusing. All the parts are jumbled together in one 7' x 4' box making finding the right one a nightmare. Holes didn't line up and routing the cables was an exercise in frustration. 3 separate cables and 27 pulleys  which rout the cables all over the place make this a very poorly designed piece of equipment in my opinion. Expected more from a brand name like Weider.

Very disappointed.

“Missing Parts”

I wanted to give this 4-5 stars, but couldn't because it was missing some of the hardware needed for assembly. As others have noted, it does take a while to assemble, but this should be expected for something of this size. If you are fairlly handy with tools, it shouldn't be a big deal. The hardware (bolts, nuts, etc) comes in three shrink-wrapped packs. I received two of the the 2nd pack, and was missing the 3rd (which I didn't discover until I was half done putting it together - my bad). I was able to replace the parts locally and finish the job (though I did contact ICON anyway to request... read full review »

“Just Picked This Up Today & Love It!”

Sears really has the best quality and price on this Pro 270 weight bench. Don't waste your time with all the other stores. I haven't shopped sears before this. They have my business!

“The weider 6900 home gym is excellent!!!!”

Easy to put together and very durable. I've really enjoyed this gym so far, if you're having trouble putting the cable into the weight stack, pick the first weight up and screw the cable in it that way, after that the weight will work it's way down after use of the gym....enjoy
