Almost all good

The foot base does not extend far enough away from the sliding bench to use proper technique and form for squats. Fortunately mine came with the Pilates kit and that bar works. Squats are a great all around leg exercise. Not being able to get proper "depth" or bend to obtain proper range of motion due to design is a MAJOR flaw. A much larger foot base would make this machine excellent.
Pros: Sturdy, Comfortable, Strengthens, Quiet
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Total Gym XLS is a great product. However, it costs way too much. I took a trial of this product but I returned it recently. If it was a little cheaper in the $400 ranges I would have actually purchased it. I would give it 5 stars for performance but 2-3 for pricing.
Pros: Easy Storage, Easy To Use, Comfortable
Cons: Costs too much, Overpriced

I don't feel like I get enough cardio with it. I need to do something separate for a good cardio workout. I spent alot of money on this machine because I thought I would work me out TOTALLY but it has only been good for strength training. My waist measurement has not changed in the 2 months I have had it.
Pros: Easy Storage, Comfortable, Easy To Set Up, Sturdy, Quiet, Easy To Use
Cons: Bulky

Awkward at first

This is a solid and quality piece of equipment, and probably very effective. It is noisy and time-consuming to change gadgets, and maybe I'm just clumsy, but it's quite awkward getting into the various positions. In reading reviews, I knew in advance that opening the gym required a long space, but we don't have a wide enough area (yet) to do amy sideways exercises. Unfortunately, most days the Total Gym sits idle.
Pros: Sturdy
Cons: Hard To Use, Bulky
I would recommend this to a friend!

I enjoy working out on the total gym.the only problem I have is the board hangs up about 2" above the lower stops. I haven't figured out the cause yet. Any ideas? Other wise all is well
