I have a Powertec cage with high/low pulley, and a powertec adjustable bench.
I am very happy with them, They are well made.
of course made in China but what isn't these days?

Yeah! I think treadmillfactory.ca has better prices, although they were a lot cheaper 3 months ago.

After looking around, I found this Body-Solid unit used with about 200lb. of plates for $800. Only problem is I have to drive 2.5 hours to get it. http://www.bodysolid.com/images/Item/249m.jpg

2.5 hours? there are closer locations than that..have the closest location bring one in for you...unless your driving 2.5 hours for a floor model?

It is a private sale. This unit sells for $1900 plus taxes at Treadmill Factory without the weights.

Do you? Wanna do a road trip to Toronto? Actually, I have use of one when I need it. Do you know where I can get some decent rubber matting? I would like to get that down before I set this thing up.

I keep hoping for a good sale on the powertec rack locally.
Never happens.
I've been using the shemworks freespotter since August.

I've been very happy with it to date.
