This was a good review. Well done

awesome!

Amazing! Definitely building this. Btw when I need casters I just a buy a harbor freight rolling cart for like $12 and get them off of there. The weight capacity of the cart is 1000# (I believe). You normally end up saving a couple bucks. They are as nice though.

So the platform just sits inside the rack on the two bars? There's nothing keeping them in place, yeah? Couldn't the two boards possibly slide inwards? How do you prevent that from happening?

Instead of cable, use the no stretch ropes that are used on a sailboat to raise the sails, called Halyards. They are specifically made to go in pulleys and can take tons of wind pressure on the sails. Also far easier to work with.🏴‍☠️

I have a Body Solid F.I.D. bench with leg extension/leg curl attachment (Which is easily removable). I love it, I've had it for 8 years and it's held up very well. It's pretty versatile for just a bench, underneath the end of the back rest pad are 2 handles you can use for doing dips or holding onto when doing leg curls. You can also store it standing up right some what easily (It's heavy). I don't see myself ever getting rid of it. I do however plan on getting a power rack with a lat tower setup like the RITFIT PPC02, Is there anything like it you recommend looking at??

How is the roller pad quality?

Great comparison. There’s no comparison.

If you're considering this Smith machine, do yourself a favor and pick it up from Temu for $300 shipped...

Definitely going to apply the P.A.N.I.S. and S.H.A.T. methods. You mentioned you had some cohabitants with sensitivities. Did the S.H.A.T. method eliminate the problems for them, and does it still smell like rubber in the basement?

Anyone else notice any issues with the pad-side front foot lifting off of the floor while using it? I know my floor is a little uneven but shimming sure hasnt worked

It’s junk. Customer service is horrible. Just getting the right part sucks. Don’t buy

How much space in front of the machine would you need to comfortably use the cables for something like cable crossovers or chest flys?

Any thoughts on this vs Lionscool v2.0? Looks promising.

I was minutes away from purchasing the MIKOLO M4, glad you changed my mind. Thanks

Anyone that purchased this did you notice that the Mikolo machine is literally identical and that is not the only machine that is identical.... I think Syedee, GMWD and Mikolo are the same company or have ties of some kind

New follower. Love the breakdown. Was wondering and looked online are there any companies that sell metal Olympic sleeves... I literally looked it up on Google on any type of site that I could timu etc and could not find anything but the plastic of different companies.... I will say that the sleeves from the Syedee leg press are thicker and actually do hold the clamps.. Maybe if Syedee or GMWD sells just the sleeves those could be another option....

I'm about to buy this machine and didn't even notice that you could do dips on it that's pretty rad that you saw that function

Was just wondering if this could be done😂

I was about to think of my own way but you already did it. Damn good work my friend. You just gained a subscriber

Great review!!!!! Thank you

Thank you for the comparison. I've a Mikolo M3 at the moment, and while I like it, I'm looking to upgrade maybe this summer. Looking for racks with dual plate loads, aluminum pulleys, and a healthy selection of attachments. The incoming RitFit Buffalo and Major Lutie B52 are my current top options but I've got 6 months in my time table to look at options. Doesn't seem like the Mikolo M4 will be on the list.

Option 1 works for me because I don't have a rack, but if I did 4 would be my favorite

This is a great comparison thank you bro!

Ingenious!! Just what I am looking for. Thank you!

Are the ritfits on Amazon all v2.0 now? How can you tell it apart from 1.0?

The RitFit also has barbell storage on the back, which is nice! I will say that the RitFit has the same issue with the pull-up bar if you are facing the rack (the joints are in the optimal hand position). However, you can just flip around and do pull-ups inside the rack to avoid that issue. I am loving my RitFit rack and just grabbed their leg curl/extension machine.

First option is the old, but commonly used lineman’s system of raising loads up a pole or tower.

Do you know the weight ratio for the pulley system? Is it 2:1? Thanks!

Can you try to not use the language? Great video but your simple comments I don’t care for. Thanks

I struggled with this and went with the Ritfit M2.0

You could actually tie the smith bar at the highest point

Just bought one because of the reviews

Hello I am new to this channel, and just came accros these reviews, I wished to come accross this channel before as I just bought a Mikolo M4 two day ago and now I am concerned with the Smith machine that seems so bad and noisy as that was one of the reason why I am changing my cage rack to the Mikolo. I tried to look for the RitFit but I live in London (England) and couldn'y find a reseller. such a pety as the price between the two brand is very similar. However, any idea how we could fix the problem with the Smith machine? Thank you and by the way I have now subscribed to your channel.

I like Ritfit. I ordered their Preacher Curl bench, and had some questions beforehand. They were very nice and responsive. I may some day sell my Leg Press and get their Leg Press Hack Squat combo, the new one with a high weight capacity

Hi- great video! Question if I may: With my power rack, what do you think of using the same method and materials to build DIY Pin & Pipe safety bars for my bench press? I would need a 36" pipe and I would secure on the front frame and the rear frame, on both sides. Thanks!

Great vid!

Great design. I would like to build one of these but use it as a surf trainer (similar to the vertical skiergs) but i would be lying on a bench and the unit would be in front of me. How would you incorporate 2 ropes/pull handles to simulate surf paddling/ thank you

Wish the inside was matte black and the text white. 🤷‍♂️

Actually insane your timing on this review. I had narrowed my selection down to either of these and helped me choose ritfit. Unfortunately the M1 Pro with aluminum pulleys is a little too pricey - will it make a big difference if I go with standard pulley cables?

When are you going to do a RitFit BUFFALO review/overview?

Thanks for the review, just went ahead and bought my ritfit M1, excited to get it in the mail.

If there only more people like you to review stuff on youtube lol. Got my like

This is making the mikolo look baaaaaad

Have you reviewed the M7? How does it compare to the M1 2.0

I have the M4, i actually chose Mikolo over the Ritfit because of the side storage, I have Olympic plates and not bumper so do not have the storage versus pully issue. This video would have been valuable when I bought the M4 on Prime Day for $850, I would likey have chosen the Ritfit had I seen the comparison back then. I replaced the nylon or plastic pullys with alloy on the main pully slots. I dislike the smith functionality the most and agree it is very rough. But the cable attachments and benching from the j-cups is fine, no complaints there. I wonder if Mikolo fixed some of the issues brought up in this video with the M7.

Leaky Faucet Gaming

Do you know if eva foam is ok for bedrooms instead of home gyms? Does it need to go on underlay or can it go directly on timber floorboards?

I've watched several reviews on this equipment and your review is the best so I appreciate it
