Promising review: "Why spend $2,500 when you can get this awesome bike? Sure it doesn't have a gargantuan screen but you can get the same exact workout with this bike when you use a phone and tablet, which we all probably have lying around. Easy to assemble, easy to connect, and a seat which miraculously did not cause pain in the rear as I was expecting! The only thing I'd change is the pedals; the cages are hard to strap into. But they feel pretty sturdy under your feet and don't make any noise! The bike is silent too. In love." —Ana

Promising review: "I am a gym rat. I have been to my local gym easily 99% of the days that I have been in the country since I was 15 years old. I am now 61. So, when our gyms closed because of COVID-19, I was a little frantic. I ordered this bike to supplement my home workouts. It took me about three hours to assemble. But, I had the help of two dogs, who lick my face every time I kneel down, and whose tails are very good at knocking over my precisely arranged groups of screws. I could have assembled it in 1.5 hours without the 'help.' The bike compares well to those at the gym. It also compares well to the bikes I bought for my physical therapy clinic. The gym bikes and those that I bought for my old clinic (I am now retired) cost around $3,500 each. This Nautilus bike rides smoothly, has a very adequate display, and is comfortable to sit in. The seat is easy to adjust and it has all of the workout programs that anyone would want. I recommend it highly. It is helping me during this quarantine period. But, I will also use it after this madness is over. In summary: Great bike for the price!" —Bruce Mendelson

It has a built-in mic to take calls from your workout buddy from up to 30 feet away. It's water-resistant, and has 8 hours of play time before you need to charge it.
Promising review: "I use this speaker almost daily. The music sounds great, and my podcasts have a nice clean sound too. This is super easy to use — my phone synced almost instantly on setup. I will say that once the battery warning says it's on medium, it isn't very long before it runs out altogether. I'd say I easily get the reported hours of battery life promised, but it does seem odd that medium doesn't truly seem to indicate it's in the middle of its battery life. I just know now to start charging it as soon as I hear that little alert. No biggie." —C. Huerta

This cage has a weight capacity of 800-pounds! That's a lot of plates! It has 19 height levels, two pairs of safety bars, and rear stability bars.
Promising review: "Amazon delivered this at 6am. It's pretty easy to assemble by yourself but it wouldn't take as long with another set of hands. It's also pretty sturdy with minimal wobble. DO NOT TIGHTEN BOLTS UNTIL THE VERY END. I put a level on mine as I tightened all the bolts to make sure it's straight. I would tighten the back crossbars first to get it semi straight then work your way around. The chrome safety bars are heavy and they fit in the holes perfectly. Of note, the nuts and bolts are slightly oily so you will get black marks on your fingers. I used a socket wrench and an open ended wrench to tighten all the bolts. The instructions are simple to follow. It literally tells you step by step so don't skip around. The bolts are marked as to which step to use them all." —Allan Hargrave

Promising review: "Look great! I helped my son put them up. Took some time but I had several mirrors. I did not use any glue. The tabs keep mirrors in place. They are solid mirrors. The came safely packed, none were broken. Awesome… love them!" —Kelley T.

I have had this treadmill for just under two years and to my surprise it's held up well over a thousand miles of running. It's super slim and takes up no space in my living room. The arms go down to make it a simple walking treadmill you can add a standing desk to. Please note: when you put the arms down, the treadmill only goes up to 2.5mph for safety reasons. It's controlled via a little remote which makes it really easy to control while I'm running. It's also surprisingly quiet and doesn't shake the entire apartment like my old treadmill did!
Promising review: " I have been using it for a few days since I received it. I feel that this is enough for home use. The sound of running is also within the acceptable range. Easy to install, can hold a tablet, and comes with a wrist control band! This treadmill can be folded up, take up no space for easy storage and can be wheeled freely." —Allison

One pack covers about 16 square feet, so the splurge adds up, but it's *so* worth it for a cute home gym!
Promising review: "These assemble easily and provide a nice resilient cushion for standing on a concrete floor. I used this under a radial arm saw in our shop. The faux wood is nice, and once assembled, the edges blend together well. These tiles in a 4-pack come with removable clean edges for 2 sides of each tile. In other words, you can easily combine multiple 4-packs of this and always have clean edges. This is a huge improvement over standing on concrete, but is not as much cushion as the more common 3/4" foam mat material. The advantages are that it has this nice finished wood look, it has great grip on the floor and on the top, and they assemble easily." —CustomWebProgrammer

It comes with two Pilates Exercise DVDs to get you started and full-color workout wall chart! The reformer has four heavy-duty, elastic cords that provide four levels of workout resistance, an adjustable headrest, ropes, straps, and hand grips to fit every user.
Promising review: "So glad I finally invested in a Reformer and could not be happier. The platform guides so smoothly and the Exercise DVD's have helped me get started with basic movements. Having the rebounder option makes cardio fun again, as well as easier on my body. This Reformer is so versatile and so easy to use." —LMMM

Comes on a 19.6 inch by 118 inch roll. Also, it's waterproof!
Promising review: "This is a great product! It’s easy to apply, you just measure, cut then peel off the paper on the back. It sticks very well and also comes off easily if you happen to not line it up correctly. I smoothed it with a dry rag and wallpaper smoother and then sliced the edging with a straight razor. Took me about 20 minutes. Everyone wants to know where I got the wood from! Great product!" —Julia M.

Promising review: "In a nutshell, this TV is perfect for me. It arrived in two days, was extremely easy to set up (and light enough for this 64-year-old woman), the remote is great, and the Smart features on this set are everything I need and more. However, the picture on this Sony Bravia X80J is the greatest feature and takes my breath away. It's a beautiful set with sturdy metal legs, great sound, and so easy to use, especially if you have the Comcast Xfinity X1 remote with voice commands. If this TV has the longevity I'm hoping for, I'll be a Sony customer for the rest of my life. Best purchase I've made in a long time" —Dee C.

Promising review: "This product is super easy to install. It took about 20 minutes if that. Instructions are easy to follow. Comes in a huge box so be ready to to move that if it isn’t delivered to your front door! Nice digital screen for distance and time. Easy storage." —Andre Ellison

BTW, it has a 700-pound weight capacity, so grab those heavy dumbbells and get to pressing!
Promising review: "Was looking for an adjustable bench for my home gym, and decided on this one — based on its features, favorable customer reviews and for a good price. So far, I'm happy with the purchase. Out of the box it was super easy to assemble. It's lightweight — light enough for my wife or son to move/re-position if needed, but sturdy and comfortable. One of the features I like most about the bench is the range of available adjustments. I was especially interested in the decline options. Overall, this bench has been a great buy for me." —sm_lags

Promising review: "I love my Maxiclimber! I broke my leg in several places below the knee. After healing I needed something to strengthen my muscles. I decided on this. It is not easy at first. I was on it for ten minutes and could hardly walk the next day. So I started out every other day for ten minutes. It got easier. Now just a few weeks later, I use it ever day for fifteen minutes and my legs and rear look better than ever. I have a small home and I leave this up in the office and it doesn't bother us. I made a good choice with this piece of exercise equipment." —Beezly911

The system comes with a suspension trainer, a suspension anchor, a door anchor, a getting-started guide and access to the TRX Training Club app with over 500+ on-demand workouts.
My fiancé bought us this system and it's honestly a great way to get a workout in! I have had surgery in my upper arms and wrists, so it's hard for me to do normal moves, like pushups. This system allows me to do the moves with proper form without risking any pain. It's super easy to install and you can actually bring the trainer with you and tie to any surface that has some sort of anchor, like a monkey bar at the park!
Promising review: "I love my TRX! It provides amazing workouts and doesn't take up any space. I currently have it hung on my patio cover in my backyard. Used it last night and boy am I sore today. Thumbs up!" —RachLG
