Recently purchased this machine and have to say the quality is outstanding. With regard to the vertical stacking of plates I made some small spacers to go between the plates to make removing them easier. I have shoulder issues so benching and military pressing with a straight bar gives me problems, the floating movement of the arms eliminates them. Really grateful for this revue it was what encouraged me to make the purchase , which I am really happy with.

I'm interested in the QT. It's just a shame the price is what it is but this is often the case with a smaller company dealing in lower production runs. It'd be cool if they could partner with a larger manufacturer to release a less expensive version the way Peppin did with REP fitness on those dumbbells.

@@powerplanthomegym So as I was on the Quantum Trainer Instagram page I noticed your name there and saw that you also have an IM2000. Do you believe the QT can adequately replace the IM? I also have one and just listed it to make room for a QT.

@@dannyrodriguez5737 it’s a totally different machine, that’s why I have both. IM2000 for barbell training, smith function, also vertical leg press and the high and low pulley use. Both really versatile machines that do different things, but supplement each other so well IMO. Would I replace the QT from the IM2000? I’m not sure. It would depend on your own personal training style / goals. I have both in a single car garage, not sure how limiting your space is. What I would add though is if you’re not using the IM2000 as a half rack too and only as smith function I’d say the QT is definitely miles ahead. If you can have both I’d highly recommend doing that, they seem to be the perfect combo.

@@dannyrodriguez5737 It does lever bar squats and hinge patterns very well. I also really like lunging / squatting with the strain bar landmine attachment over one shoulder.

@@andreadalex8893 having tried most of the lever gyms this feels totally different to them, also these arms are way more versatile. A lower pulley can be set up DIY style for cheap or a dedicated machine with an adjustable pulley is relatively low cost and add loads more functionality. I really rate the powertec levergym and even more so the ATX triplex but this machine is a totally different beast.

@@UberAugie yeah guessing those Halo arms will be at a different pricing tier since they've got more options, more hole spacing, greater range of motion, and you can lock in the articulation at different angles. That's important for me since I plan to leave the arms on full-time and don't want them to get in the way of my pulleys.

I would want to buy this with the attachment for the lat pulldown/triceps and the leg attachment you have to complement it. I have tried contacting the company, but they have yet to respond. Do you have any idea what these attachments would cost? If they are expensive, having a complete gym will add a lot of cost. When you add the weight plates for around $800 and the attachments, you could be into this for closer to $5000. I was ready to pull the trigger on this, especially since I can set this up on my patio, but I will wait and see when the attachments are available and what they cost. As always, excellent video demonstration and honest opinions on all your videos.

Thanks John. I assume if they didn't get back to you it will just be a matter of time. But I assume within the next month or two max those attachments will be ready. He could have started selling what I'm using, but he wanted to hold off until he perfected the attachments. They know the cost is getting up there as well as people expect these attachments. I have a feeling the lat attachment will be very affordable possibly included and the leg/curl will be something
