    Easy to build and great value

    I'm a single mum with absolutely no experience in assembling equipment. I felt nervous when 3 large boxes arrived and I unpacked all the pieces. My worries were soon put at ease as I just worked through it one step at a time. The quality for the price paid is exceptional. While the cables could flow a little smoother it's certainly a great machine to have in the garage and I find I have to now fight my teenage son to be able to use it!

    Great purchase and easy to assemble

    Great purchase, good quality and easy to assemble. Quick delivery too. Perfect for garage. Don’t take too much space either. Was bit hesitant to purchase but no regrets now.

    MEMAX Aerial Yoga Hammock Yoga Swing Set

    Aerial Yoga Hammock

    Great product and on the stretchier side of hammocks, just by a smidge. I ordered the pack with the daisy chains and carabiners, I’m glad I ordered extra carabiners as I attached the hammock to the carabiners and it ended up covering most of the part you open to attach to the daisy chain making it difficult to adjust the height, it gets caught on it and it’s so tight (which is a good thing!) So I attached another set of carabiners to the carabiners and now I can adjust the height with ease. The kids love it too!

    Love it

    Love my judo/jiu-jitsu mat it was exactly what I’m looking for and fits in my room.

    ATTIVO Squat Rack with Lat Pull Down System - SR1551

    I just got this as a birthday present and I gota say - it is really awesome! Relatively easy to construct and has totally changed the way I am working out already. Thank You Attivo!!

    Question - does it need some silicone on the runner for ease of movement?

    Hi there, thank you for leaving a review for the ATTIVO Squat Rack with Lat Pull Down System - SR1551. We are thrilled to hear that it has made a positive impact on your workouts. As for your question, we recommend using a silicone lubricant on the runner for smoother movement. Happy lifting!

    Kind regards,
    Team Gym Plus

    Perfect home pole!

    So worth it! We're all wary of portable poles. We've seen the fail videos. Ensure your pole is under a beam and is straight. I absolutely love mine. And the mat is so good as I have concrete flooring in our garage. It hasn't budged at all in the time we've had it up & have had multiple friends of various sizes give it a try. Perfect home pole for an affordable price & grateful for the afterpay option

    Essential Garage Gym Package

    Great setup for a home gym

    My first investment in "proper" home gym equipment and couldn't be happier.
    Ordering and delivery were easy, most packages delivered in a main delivery, then a final set of weight plates came a couple of days later.
    Assembly pretty straightforward, I'd recommend rubber floor tiles underneath, and when all set up it's sturdy and doesn't have any wobbles. Nylock nuts used all around so not expecting anything to loosen up too much.
    Lat pull down cable system is really good. Note that the peg for weights takes 1" or 25mm diameter hole weights vs. the 50mm ones that ship for the barbell.
    Barbell is longer than I anticipated so you do need decent space around the rack so bar and weights don't catch on anything.
    Add a bench to this like I did and with a bit of silicon spray lube for the cables and pulldown mechanism I reckon this will do me for many years.
    I've even successfully managed a couple of pull ups already.

    Five star delivery, Flashy color and amazing grips

    As I haven’t heard this brand before I was hesitant to order at first but the delivery was on the dot with no dramas at all. The bar is perfect for my crossfit trainings and resistance trainings. I recommend it 100%.

    Jammer/Lever Arm

    Quick delivery can't fault the service.
    Easy to put together will need a 18mm socket/ spanner or adjustable spanner x2.

    Finally have a jammer arm for 50mm x 50mm rack which are hard to find unless you take out a second mortgage.

    Item is pretty solid which can be adjusted with ease in the 18 different sections.

    I think these have a slight design flaw explained below.

    My only criticism is the was the arms attach to the rack. The pole that inserts into the rack is at the top and is secured by the safety pin at the bottom. I found that peg kept slipping out even without weights. So I swapped out the position so the weight is not at the bottom and secured at the top which no longer slips out. Although you will lose a hole if your using the ZY16 rack but you will have better safety and security.

    Essential Garage Gym Package - Pink

    Excellent

    Love my new gym set up, built it myself took about 5 hours, it’s so nice, sturdy can’t wait to get started, definitely worth the money!

    ATTIVO Power Rack ZY18 - Pink
    Julie Kefford (Brisbane, AU)
    Love it

    Love it so much. Service to FNQ was exceptional. They did everything to make it fast and were easy to talk to and organise to meet my needs! My only feedback would be that instructions aren’t great and video of some one putting together or photos of particular aspects of construction would be awesome.

    Easy set up, takes up little space however wish the handles weren’t so steep as it puts pressure on wrists. However still works and looks good

    Does the job

    The storage attachment itself is fine. Does the job. I was expecting to be able to use the existing screws/holes in my rack to attach it though and I couldn’t. The holes in the attachment are too small for the existing screws in my rack. The diameter of the screws provided isn’t in the product description but they are 10mm in case that helps anyone else. I had to go and get a cobalt drill bit and drill new holes in the rack to attach it which isn’t ideal. Would have also been good to have the option to just buy one of these as well as I didn’t need two of them. Especially given they just come as two separate packages.

    Amazing !!!

    Really happy with the quality of the product and the quick delivery. Solid and strong design and easy to install. Deff recommend WD40 to the slide bars and the bearings but use the specific WD40 bearing spray. I purchased mine from Bunnings for $10.

    Vertical leg press

    I like the leg press hits the legs nicely was fairly easy to set up easy on back just need to put a towel under small of back for support otherwise it works well

    MEMAX Soft Pit Crash Mat
    Mandy Rincon (Adelaide, AU)
    Perfect for my home lyra training

    It's still early, but so far it's perfect for my Lyra home training. It's light and easy to transport for setup/packdown. Its soft but firm enough to take the impact. I really like it. It also came quick in the postage. I will be purchasing another one to expand when I get to some of the more advance movements

    I Love it But would need two People to Assemble quickly or a ladder if just one Assembling it

    Ezy too Assemble I'm using the Lat Pull Down as is but some Said to Lube the Lat Sliding bars just to be safe i haven't
    done that yet & have used it for Lats & Triceps a fair bit as is.

    Very Happy

    Very solid product. Good fixings for mounting into brick work. Fast delivery at a reasonable price.

    Great machine

    Really easy to set up and everything fit perfectly, seems like good quality machining. So far really good to use, quite a few exercises that cover most muscles with only a few extras outside the machine. Fit in a small space I had.

    Brilliant!

    Love it!

    Uneven Bars and Mat Combo

    Absolutely fantastic! The quality of these products is great!. Easy to assemble and so strong and sturdy. We couldn't be happier. My 9 year old daughter has been on them since Christmas day. Thank you so much 😊🙏

    I’m so happy with this pole!

    I was quite hesitant to buy an affordable pole, and also a chrome one. So many people say not to use them but one of my friends from dancing has this pole and told me she really likes it so I decided to try it myself and I love it personally! Although it is quite a lot more slippery than the brass ones we use at dancing once the pole is warmed up and your grip is better the pole is fine! It’s strong up against the roof and it feels sturdy and safe. I’ve tried some inversions on it too and it’s perfectly fine! Very easy to assemble! I’d suggest watching a YT video as the instructions confused me but it was easy once I wanted a video! I’ve had this pole for about 3 weeks now and I’m super happy I can practice at home and feel safe while doing so!

    Best purchase of 2023

    I was sceptical at first to buy the pole, but after putting it up and having a go at it, it's been nothing but amazing.
    For the price, its10/10, as well has the quality.
    It took me just under 40mins to install it myself, it doesn't come with the best instructions but after watching a YouTube video, you can easily figure it out.
    It's really easy to change it from static to spin.
    it's also really sturdy, I've had it for just over 2 weeks and it hasn't moved one bit.

    Great for home practice

    As an adult dancer, I love this barre as it's perfect for squeezing in some pliés and tendus outside of formal class time. While it seems compact, you get the full use of the length of the barre. (Models from other online shops have the feet set narrower than the actual barre, which seems a waste of space.) Even better is that my barre fits within my apartment's laundry cabinet so I can put it away neatly without annoying my partner

    My only minor gripe is that the sides do seem very tall. Perhaps that might be useful for pointework or very tall people, which is why this doesn't affect my rating. While I won't use the full height, I did find it would helpful to hold onto while doing stretches
