Sunhome Smith Machine Home Gym – Great Value, but Some Design Quirks
The Smith Machine Home Gym is a well-rounded piece of equipment for those looking to build a versatile home gym on a budget. At $880 shipped with a coupon at the time of purchase (price subject to change), it offers a solid mix of features, including a Smith bar, cable system, leg press, and pull-up station. However, there are a few design flaws that require creative solutions.ProsThis machine provides a sturdy frame and a good variety of workout options for the price. It functions well for most exercises and, with the right modifications, can accommodate a full-body routine. When paired with an adjustable bench, such as the Fostoy Adjustable Weight Bench (approximately $120 at the time of purchase), it becomes even more versatile with the ability to perform leg extensions and leg curls, along with a preacher curl attachment.Cons & Workarounds1. Cable Length Limitation on Adjustable Pulleys• The cables bottom out too soon when using both pulleys at the same time, limiting the full range of motion. The seller confirmed this is a design flaw.• One solution is to use chain extensions (included with the machine) for each pulley and adjust your standing position until you achieve full range of motion. Another alternative is to sit on a bench or kneel to engage your core while performing movements like cable flys.• At 6’0”, I was able to make these adjustments work.2. Smith Machine Height Restriction for Calf Raises• The height of the machine prevents proper calf raises on the Smith bar.• There is no direct fix, but alternative options include using a hack squat machine like I bought on Amazon (MDeam is the brand, check out my review on that as well), or performing seated dumbbell calf raises on a small platform for better range of motion.3. Slack in the Pulley System for Leg Press, Chest Press, and Flys• The pulley system has noticeable slack, which reduces resistance at the start and end of movements.• To fix this, I placed a 2” piece of 2x4 between the rubber bumper of the leg press, which removed the slack and maintained consistent resistance throughout the range of motion.• Important Note: The block must be removed before adjusting weights, or it will be difficult to insert the pin into the stack.4. Pull-Up Bar Foam Grip Feels Cheap• The foam grip isn’t ideal for my preference. A bare metal bar with grip tape would have been a better design choice.5. Seat Back and Height Are Not Adjustable• The backrest is fixed, which means certain exercises require adjusting your body position manually.• The seat height is also non-adjustable, which may be an issue for some users, though it wasn’t a concern for me.Final ThoughtsThis Smith Machine Home Gym is a solid purchase for the price, with a wide range of functionality. While some design flaws exist, most can be worked around with slight modifications. If you’re looking for an affordable all-in-one home gym and are willing to make a few adjustments, this is a good investment—but keep in mind the price may change over time.

Great product; excellent customer service.
After months of debating, I finally invested in the SunHome Multifunction Home Gym, and it’s been a game-changer for my fitness routine. The setup includes everything I need for a full-body workout, cable system, leg press, pull-up bar, all in one compact unit.Assembly took a few hours, but the instructions were clear. Once set up, it feels sturdy and professional. The weight stacks glide smoothly, and the build quality is solid — no wobbling or cheap parts.What I love most is the versatility. I can do strength training, bodyweight workouts, and even functional movements without switching equipment.My items arrived on time and was well package. I needed a replacement item after set up, and the seller promptly sent it to me via FedEx without any issue; excellent customer service.Overall, if you're serious about working out at home and want a reliable, all-in-one setup, I will HIGHLY recommend the SunHome Multifunction Home Gym

It's a decent product for a home gym at this price point. (Updated)
The media could not be loaded. Well, decent just went to really good deal after hearing from the sales team and manufacturer. They assisted in helping me with the issue. So far I’ve been using the machine without issue. Is it perfect for home use? It’s pretty good. Don’t expect it to feel like it’s professional gym quality because it’s not that, nor is it supposed to be. Will you get a great workout in and not have to pay a gym membership? Absolutely! Older Review: It’s a decent product for a home gym at this price point. The challenge is have is that the cord connecting to the weight stack is about 2 inches short so it makes it hard to adjust the weights. That's the biggest flaw. The other issue is the directions and the labels. This comes in several boxes and while the directions are pretty thorough it would be better if they labeled all of the pieces and not just the big ones. It's pretty big so make sure you have some room. You’re going to need about 15 ft in length, 7 ft in width and it's just over 7ft tall. It literally takes up over half of my 3rd car garage bay. Hopefully this company can send me a longer cord or a fix for this issue I mentioned. It gets worse I'd you add the attachments on the chains. If that was fixed I'd give this 4.5-5 stars for price point and 4.5 stars for function.

Worth it
Got this for hubby as a Christmas gift, still holding strong. Was pretty easy to assemble and put together. Giving a 4 star because you can’t adjust the seat so it’s a bit uncomfortable to use

Great system at a great price.
This is a great exercise system, it has so many different exercises that we can do on it. We have had it about three months now and so far no problems. I looked at so many different systems, including those at Costco, Sam’s Club, Walmart and Amazon and even Used systems and this was the best deal at the best price by far. It arrived in six or seven boxes over three days. It took six hours to put it together. I spent two hours a day over three days by myself for the most part. I did need my wife’s help for about 15 minutes for one part. Helpful Notes: the parts for each step including the first step are spread out over all the boxes. You will need to closely follow the instructions, which are not that good. You will need a large space with least three feet in front of the leg press. I was able to get a good bench and weights separately. I would definitely recommend this system.
