    With your advice I bought the Centr 2 from Costco online last weekend. Was delivered on Monday! I was going to settle on the Centr 1 due to the price, went to my local Costco and they had it for $599. Almost pulled the plug. But even at $499 (this week) I think I got so much more of a machine With the Centr 2 at $1199. My wife even said the 1 looked cheapy compared to the 2. I second the advice, if you can just squeeze out a bit more cash you will not have any regrets with the 2. We put a Costco rug (that was on sale) under it and have it temporarily in the family room. Looks noninvasive in the house so that is a good thing! we did look at the 3 when trying to decide but for us it did not seem to be worth the extra cash. Great channel by the way, Subscribed!

      Thank you for all the great comments. The one thing I do love about the center 2 which I have used and tried before and seen the quality of it in Costco. It’s very good. The center two has an angle where if you want to you can put it in a corner and you can save a ton of space. My SF3 does not. I have a few other videos with other guys who have bought the SF two also known as the center two and they absolutely love it. I was originally going to buy that until I saw the SF three because of the Smith bar. But for the price, the Center is a really good deal for what you get. Plus it comes with the accessories and the foldable bench. Please be advised when they deliver the unit to your house. They pretty much just drop it off in the driveway. Multiple people have told me that they don’t go inside the house. But congratulations on your purchase and please let me know how it goes. I appreciate your subscription and you watching my videos. It means a lot.

    First, wanted to say a quick thanks to you and others like you posting videos about the Centr products. I had about given up on finding a cable trainer machine that would fit in my basement gym. I picked the Centr 1 up about a month ago for 499, and went back and got a bit of a refund when they lowered the price.
    This will fit in a sedan, but you have to take everything out of the box and load them individually. I had to adjust my basement gym setup to make everything work and took the time to upgrade the floor to a uniform mat as well. Due to a drop down ceiling, my absolute max height would have been 79 inches to the support beams, but only 76 to the drop down ceiling panels. This came in under that by about two inches. The footprint, while fairly big as you stated, can be worked around with the right planning.
    If this is someone's main weight machine, the Centr 2 might be a better option. However, this, at my 5' 9" height just completed all the moves I used to do at the gym with the cable machine. This works perfectly.

      I appreciate you sharing your experience! Thank you so much. It will definitely help others in their quest to find a great functional trainer that works for them. I’m glad the cost came down. It was way too much money at $900. Glad you got a steal!! Thanks for watching!

    I bought the Centr1 at $499. I thought it was a deal. It replaced a bow flex that I actually did use. It's in the sunroom next to a treadmill and a dumbell set I got at Sam's. Pretty compact to me. I just signed up for a free year at Centr Website but so far the bow flex videos were better. I put it together and I am not mechanical. Manual is pretty simple to understand. Mine is rock solid. My home gym supplements my gym membership at FC. I think folks could do a lot worse and if you exercise often, it is well worth $500.

      Go back to Costco ASAP because I’m hearing people are paying $399 for it! Congratulations on your purchase it’s funny you’re the first person that ever said they actually use their bow flex!!! I had one, and it turned into a hamper pretty quick!! But thank you for the comment and go back to Costco ASAP and see if you can get 100 bucks back!!!

    I picked one up for $399 which I thought was a pretty good deal - be warned the package is pretty big and weighs about 175kg/400lbs. I could get it in the back of an Acura MDX - you need about 40" width, and something to keep the hatchback down as it will stick out. Costco were really great, they had me park around the back and used a forklift to get it loaded - but had staff out to help open the box and load it in pieces if necessary - apparently that's been the norm for them.

      Yep! Box weights are no joke!!! Great steal for $399! That thing was $899 at one point! The bench alone is worth $279!

    You actually found a floor model that didn’t have the weight stack zip-tied to prevent us from trying it out?
    I was looking at the one at my regular Costco and they had it for $599 for the last 2 weeks. I went there today and it was down to $400 with a catch: They were selling the floor model only. I’ve never seen Costco sell a floor model so that tells me they’re desperate to get rid of it.
    I was seriously considering paying the $799 on the website but maybe I’ll check a few other stores to see if they have them at the cheaper price.

    I just brought mine home from Costco in Eugene, Or. I usually only go to Costco once a month. I was there a few days ago and saw this Exercise Station on Sale for $599.99. I decided to go back today with my SUV to pick one up. I asked a worker where they moved the display and he pointed out where they were located now and he said they have been reduced to $499.99 as of today. Perfect timing ! *FJB !*

      It is really big for the footprint and the amount of options you have for working out. And the first time I saw it it was way overpriced. You can have your opinion and I can have mine. There are way better options on the market. Over all Centr came really short on the this machine. I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT ALL. This is going to be a great clothes hamper for some people…But thank you for the view!
