New equipment finally!

Ok all, here's what I'm getting... input/opinions are welcome, but I can get this locally and it seems like a nice unit.

Impex POWERHOUSE Power 6:

Other option is a used Body Solid unit with squat rack, lat attachment, dual pulleys, 300 pound weight set and bench (no leg developer) for $300.

I have used a BodySolid unit the one with cables - it sucks. Poor design. Be careful.

Probably why it's being sold AGAIN... The people selling it bought it used from Play it Again Sports, now they're selling it. I'll steer away from that one then, thanks!

I can't speak for the design of the particular model. Others will tell you differently, but I would advocate the use of some machines instead of sticking solely to free weights. Although I don't see a weight stack on this. :confused:

It uses olympic weight plates, which I already have 300 pounds of.
