The Total Gym is easy to use, takes up very little space and is great for keeping the body toned.

Awesome
I've been looking for a home gym that doesn't take up a lot of space when you're not using it and this total gym is the best. It's about 7-8 ft fully opened up but collapses to like 4 feet when you don't want to use it or if you have company coming around. Not to mention the work out with it is great. Just follow the tools given to you and you'll enjoy this as much as me.

Basic is the best for me
I've owned 3 Total Gyms since 1996 and the 1100 is the best, cost efficient model out there. It allows me to complete all the basic exercises without all the bells and whistles.

Anytime I've gone for a period of time without working out, this machine was the fastest way for me to tone my major muscle groups. Cardio and weight training in one. I have saved hundreds of dollars on gym memberships by having this at home. Love it!!

I have had to replace mine about every 4 years due to wear and tear. To me this is not unreasonable because I use the machine extensively. I paid $199 for this in 1996 and paid the same in 2008. Can't beat that.

Great Value, must understand limitations
The Total Gym 1100 is a great value given its low price combined with the number of exercise you can perform. I rated it 4 starts, but 3.5 would be more accurate. Buying the more expensive models does not greatly increase what you can do; it just improves the quality and throws in a few accessories. You can get a pretty good upper body workout on this machine, but this in not the machine if you want to do a lot of work on your legs or abs. The construction and components are not high quality, but that should be expected when buying the base line model. Nothing has broken yet, but some of the padding is showing major signs of wear after only a few months. This is a great item to if you want a good (not great) workout at a very low price, just don't expect it to do everything.

Pros:
- Can perform most of the same exercise as more expensive models
- Fairly easy to move and store away
- Good upper body workout, especially shoulders
- Great Value
- Amazon Shipping was great
Cons:
- Not for developing muscle mass, nor is it great for lower body or core
- Quality of machine/components is not very good (this should be expected for the price)
