MiM USA Hercules 1001 Commercial All in One Gym Machine W/Full Attachments

This is a very large extremely well built machine that will last my me and my wife a lifetime. It does everything we could want it to do and more. Only issue I had was a few instances when assembling it , the pic in the manual wasn’t the best so I had to trial and error once or twice. I was able to assemble it alone with no issues and I’m only 5’5 165. The order does come in 12 heavy well packaged boxes so FedEx will love you. Another thing to note one of my boxes was duplicated so I was missing 1 box. When I contacted the seller Mr. Ali he responded back in mere minutes. Mr. Ali kept constant communication thruout the whole process of sending me the correct box which was at my house very quick. I can easily say with 100% honesty this man was the most customer oriented person I have ever met.

This is a really high quality piece of equipment - equal in quality to the equipment you would find at a commercial gym. It is easily assembled and comes with clear assembly instructions. I had a couple of follow-up questions and a possible damaged in shipping (box was destroyed but parts ended up being o.k.) issue that were promptly and courteously dealt with by the seller. The equipment essentially allows me to do all of the things that I could do at the gym. My only "ask" would be that the manufacturer or seller post some videos on YouTube explaining all of the functionality as some other sellers and manufacturers have done.

Excelent product and excelent service!

If you want a home gym, this is the one. Took a few hours to put together, but the instructions were easy enough for a non-putter-together-of-things.Has everything you need and more. Only "complaint" is that it's sometimes hard to do the leg press by yourself since the grips want to auto rotate forward and rerack after every press - but thats with every machine (which is why complaint is in quotes).Lost 10 lbs in 2 weeks already! Going to make meeting new years resolutions a lot easier this year!

A bit over priced for what you get. This comes with zero free weight. This is just the rack. For 6 k you can by a actual life fitness multifunction rack. Which is a much higher quality. My company immediately returned this item.

Update-the seller helped out tremendously getting everything straightened dour for us.The setup seams pretty solid and the weight set would be great if we can get all the parts. Currently we dont have any bolts for the bench portion, and only 10 of the 12 boxes shave arrived but shipping says they all got delivered. We have reached out a couple time for help and haven’t gotten a response. Hopefully we get resolve because we’d lobe to get to use the product and give a better review.

Four years ago, I set out to buy the best versatile gym that I could find. Having worked out in gyms up and down the east coast for the better part of 30 years, I knew exactly what I wanted. First and foremost, it had to be sturdy (I absolutely HATE flimsy equipment), I needed the ability to use a free weight bar, have a smith machine and have some kind of pully system. After a long search, I landed on the Hercules 1001.Fours years later, I can honestly say that I could not be happier with the machine. For a free standing piece of equipment (unlike a rack mounted to a wall), it is as sturdy as you can get for a home application (even better than some commercial machines I have used). I rountinely load my free weight bar with 200-350 lbs and have very little movement or vibration when I rack the bar. The smith machine and pully system remains smooth and true after all this time. I have loaded the pullies with 250 lbs and have had no issues.What stands out to me the most is the versatility. My wife and three teenage daughters all use the machine for various different exercises and there has not been one time where anyone has come to me and stated they couldn't do something. Between all of us, the machine is used on average 15-20 times per week and shows almost no signs of wear and tear other than what you would expect.One additional thing to note that I think is worth mentioning, is that I live across the street from the beach. Rust is a big factor for me with anything that is going to be kept outside or in the garage; basically if it can rust or peel, it will in my house. After four years, there is not one rust or peel spot anywhere on the equipment.In terms of delivery, I received all of the boxes successfully over a two day period and was able to put the machine together by myself (with occasional help from one of my daughters) in a day. With a little common sense (and one or two errors that needed to be fixed), the instructions where adequate.Last thing that I want to mention is the customer service. Buying a $6000 machine online that I didn't have the opportunity to test was a big risk for me and a huge concern to get over. I called several times and asked a ton of questions and never once felt that I was rushed or being annoying. I honestly felt that my satisfication was the biggest concern of the company. Rare in todays world.There are a couple of things to note:1) Expect some adjustment getting used to certain exercises; especially if you're used to working out on traditional commerical gym equipment from Gold's, World or LA fitness gyms. Nothing bad, just different. For example, the cables are closer than that of a traditional cable crossover machine.2) It took a few workouts to get used to changing attachments and setting up for the next exercise. Unlike a tradiitonal gym where you go from machine to machine, here you are stripping down and resetting.3) Think about the model you choose. I absolutely love the fact that my 1001 uses free weights on the pully system, unlike the EX that uses plates. The EX is certainly more convienent, but I like the pure weight of the 1001.Bottom line: If you have the bug to build a home gym and want flexibility w/o sacrificing durability, this machine will be the cornerstone.
