The Signature Fitness Cable Crossover machine was easy to assemble. The operation is smooth for both upper and lower pulleys. I highly recommend this. You can't find a better machine for the money.

I read a ton of reviews before buying and everyone said the same thing so I'll add to it - Assembly is a challenge but possible.

1: directions are just photos of the completed step. There are no words directing you on what to do.

2: when rigging the cables start at the end with the largest point and work your way back pulley by pulley. I had to redo this one.

3: set comes in several box's and although the boxes are labeled 1, 2, and so on"¦ the parts are mixed so you'll need to open ALL the boxes (even the smaller ones inside the large ones) to access all the parts needed. Setup steps do not correlate to the box numbers.

4: prepare to get dirty. The set comes fresh from china and they rush the powered coating on the metal. You will get black powder everywhere. Clean before use.

OVERALL: pretty impressed to be honest. It's built well for the price. Set up is tricky, but my set had everything in box.

PERKS: all the moving parts work together so you don't need to swap cables and do modifications to change to another work out.

CONS: I'd recommend replacing the actual factory included handles. Those are kinda cheap.

I ordered this product twice due to the first being delivered opened and missing multiple items..
the 2nd arrived in much better shape though was missing a couple required hardware items ( was able to go to LOWES and replace ).
Now on to the product review:
The instructions are pretty vague so I found the best option was to look @ the images on the AMAZ website and build it according to the visuals especially when it came to the cable routing.
After it was put together and tested , I was pretty impressed with it. There was no wobble or lack of sturdiness in the finished product.
Overall: pretty impressed.
well worth the investment.

I love this M750 Signature Fitness Home Gym! Everything worked (is working) like a charm. While I know some found it "challenging" to assemble, I used the "shortest distance between two points" perspective to put everything together to accomplish the task: The step-by-step assembly video on Amazon's product page (shown as Fitvids M750 on this page [above]). The video actually served as my guide for 99% (really 100%) of the assembly process. I only looked in the user manual a couple of times to verify rubber/plastic parts shown quickly during the video assembly. The whole process (with minor breaks) took me about 4 to 5 hours to assemble. In the end, the gym came with all its parts, works wonderfully well, and is a cost-effective replacement for the Body-Solid gym I had for about 16 years. Approximate dimensions: 70" inches high (back) weight stack, 78" inches high (front) lat pulldown, 42" inches wide, 72" inches in length (back to front).

I only paid $16! Fantastic Value!
