value buy lacking documentation
The gym is well made and a value for the money. If considering, be aware that there are a couple of styles for this gym - a one weight stack version and a two stack version. I had a home gym before (Weider) and this one is both designed and built better. For a reasonable price, the gym offers a good number of exercise options. Thanks to other reviewers who warned not to tighten the pulleys when first installing them. While having pulleys in place makes stringing the cables easier, many must be taken out and reinstalled in order to place the cable properly. I also second other comments about the lack of good instructions. My gym came with a couple of additional inserts w/o explaining why they were there. The diagrams are OK but not great (e.g., in some cases, 2 pulleys are to be installed but the diagram only shows one -- the number of parts listed is only way to know). No written explanations anywhere. I also fault body solid for not marking the parts. Why can't each item be identified? Sauder places a letter on each item for its "assembly required" furniture. Each type of bolt could be in a separate marked bag rather than 8 types of bolts in one bag. Only time will tell as to durability - though I suspect that will not be an issue

EXM2500S
Got the best price buying direct here rather than Amazon or other methods. Assembly was a fun challenge- Be organized and layout your parts beforehand. Dont tighten the pulleys until you run the cables. The machine is very sturdy and well built, it should last with regular maintenance. Shipping and delivery were smooth and trouble-free.

BEST PURCHASE IN YEARS
After my husband and I had purchased a home gym in Sears, I went online to read the reviews. Needless to say, we returned it and I went on the hunt for an affordable home gym that was durable, sturdy, good construction, attractive and met the desire for us to get great resistance training! The BodySolid was a FABULOUS FIND!! The price was great, and even when I ordered it, I first ordered the lower price one with only one bench. Then I saw this one (EXM2500S) and thought it was worth a little more money for what you were getting. The vendor gave us great customer service and even gave us the lower price found on Amazon! When my husband assembled it, we were both amazed at the QUALITY at this price!! We LOVE IT!! Very satisfied with the construction and all the features to work all the major muscle groups! THANK YOU AMAZON!! I will highly recommend this to anyone looking for an affordable home gym! Great job Body Solid!!

I like it
My wife and son are using this more than me. Works very smoothly and is able to handle my 200 plus pound body and my mutch smaller wife's. Make sure to take the time to follow the instructions illistrations. Don't get frustrated when you may have to remove a pulley or two after installing them to run the cables. You can't do mutch better than this, other than going to the gym or buying a more expensive item.

EXM2500
A lot of capability for the money. I am 6'5" and was concerned that I wouldn't get sufficient range of adjustment to do some of the exercises. If I was an inch taller I wouldn't have but I can just fit in. The overall build quality is adequate and as expected. Some end cap plastic parts tend to break when inserted but I figured out how to modify them to prevent that. Overall meets my goals.

EXM2500S
This is actually a very good machine.....it works smoothly and dosent bind anywhere............I'm 6' 2" and it fits me and my long arms just fine. The instructions for this machine are terrible !........I am mechanically inclined and it took me many hours to build.....do NOT tighten any pully's till you run the cables !.........The picture instructions are not correct so just try to follow what you see and run the cables........it actually does work ok once you get the cables ran and adjusted. I actually did get quite frustrated with the instructions not telling you the correct order to set the items.........lol.......Just keep the faith and you will get it set up correctly.

Body Solid XM2500 Home Gym
Took a little it to put together but once it was up and running, I have to say that I love it. I get a really good workout and being 65 years old that is saying something. I have been getting compliments on how I look and how much bigger muscle wise I have gotten. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a home gym.

Love this machine
Kudos to Terry and Kevin for helping out with getting this machine to my door and taking my calls. Best customer service I've had in a long time. I bought this along with the leg press. It took quite a while to get it all set up and dialed in. I wasn't in a hurry. Testing out the chest press, amazing. I have a B-flx that I can push the max amount of resistance. Pushing 50 on the EXM felt completely different and on top of that, I felt it several days later. No pain no gain, right? Leg press is a must have for additional leg workout. The only single issue is working shoulders, haven't quite found a good way to perform military presses. Other than that, if you're on the fence about buying this machine, GO FOR IT! You won't regret it. 60 year old coot attempting to stay in shape.

Well worth the investment
Beyond pleased with my EXM2500B. Tons of muscle groups can be hit with this machine. Many say that the assembly was difficult but I would strongly disagree. Take a little to organize all the pieces and hardware (I used a folding table and blue painters tape to label). Then the instructions are simply the schematics. Sure it might not say "step 1 do x, y, and z." But it is clear as day how to assemble. Start from left to right or vice versa and check off the pieces you assemble on the schematics and you'll have it done in no time. It took me 3 hours from fully packaged to built and I did it solo.

Excellent Home Gym
This product was everything I was looking for in a home gym. Once it was together it worked as advertised. The only concern was that the assembly instructions that came with the equipment were hard to follow. However, we found better instructions online that made the task much easier.
