For the money, sounds like a great machine. Potential buyers need to understand the 'extras" will make it cost more. One pet peeve I have about Amazon reviews is people will review a $20.00 item like it's a $500 item. You paid $20.00, bro. From a review perspective, you did a great job listing the pros and cons for everyone. For $300? Not bad. I have no room for it, so I'll have to stick with my bench and dumbbells.
