I’m glad you liked it. I’ve really enjoyed the Arcadia. I think you will love it. It is very high quality. One thing, be careful about how the cables are routed around the pull up bar bolts. They should run underneath the bolts. Have a great work out!
Hey, thanks for this video. I'm thinking about getting one of these and it was good to see how it's packaged and what's pieces it comes in as I have a really old house with tiny doors! So your video helped! Ta from the UK!
Thanks for this! I saved a bunch of money putting it together by myself. I watched your video several times the day before picking it up and it gave me confidence about doing by myself. Rep fitness doesn’t even have an install video for this product, which is not great
Just wanted to add that even tho the poster calls the bolts 10mm and 12mm, you will need 19mm and 17mm wrenches to fasten them. So an open wrench and socket pairing is probably the easiest way to go.
If I push it all the way to the corner and measure from the corner to the front of the machine, it measures about 43”. But I think to utilize the full potential of the machine you may want it away from the walls a little bit. For example, if you wanted to do tricep pull downs and were isolated to one tower, you may not want to be all the way up against the wall with your shoulder. The head as it’s on swivel to pivot inward if needed. But just keep that in mind when you’re thinking of positioning
I noticed my left pulley at the top(looking toward) made a little different noise during the first 3 workouts. It went away and hasn’t come back. Maybe put it thru its paces first and see if it settles in like mine did! Also make sure the cable is not routed over one of the bolts on the pull up bar. It’s easy to do that.
I did not pay close enough attention, and I routed the cable over the top of the pull-up bar bolt rather than underneath. I caught it pretty quick so it didn’t result in any damage, but it is easy to do so just be careful.
It’s awesome. No issues at all. It’s a RealRelax brand that I bought it off Amazon. I actually found it as a return unopened so I got a great deal. It’s a few years old and I don’t think it is still offered but my dad also bought a RealRelax and likes it but his has the handheld remote, where mine has the hard mounted control on the pedestal. Definitely get the hard mounted pedestal like mine. Here’s the link to the one I bought. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08WZW6PHQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Extremely easy but I don’t think you would ever need to. It’s a solid machine and should be very long lasting. The trolleys are the best I ever seen on a home gym.
Because the trolleys pivot it’s a hard measurement to give. It is 44” from the outside of the left metal upright to the outside of the left metal upright. I hope that helps
@@AcupulaAcres That helps and answers my question thank you. I think I am convinced on getting this model. I love scooting a bench in-between functional trainers and doing chest presses, and a narrower stack like this one helps a ton so you don't have to converge so much at the top of a press and you don't get as many weird forces on the shoulders with the cables being too wide.
There are two pins that are below the weight stack on either side. The go thru the bottom leg and are design so you can add bands. You may need to remove those to tuck your bench in all the way.
You were right. I ordered the additional weight stacks anyway, so I decided to just not add the band pins. Your video definitely helped a lot while assembling, so thank you.@@AcupulaAcres
Thank you for this video. My friend we’ve just spent a few hours together as I built my Rep Arcadia and your video was so helpful. Thank you.
Awesome to hear! Glad it helped!
Thank you so much for putting this together! I had just purchased this and your video saved me hours of struggle.
So glad. That means a lot that it helped!
I am getting the max version this weekend. Going it goes on sale for Labor Day. Thanksfor the video
@@RobertBeedle glad it helped! You’ll love it!
Thanks for the video, I am taking delivery on the Arcadia tomorrow.

I’m glad it has helped. You won’t be disappointed in it!
Thank you for this Video man! really helped!
Great! I love to hear that!
Thanks for sharing!

I’m really glad it helped! It’s been a good trainer for us. I hope it is for you too.

Good point. I’m referring to the bolts, not the sockets. Good clarification!
How far does it stick out from the corner when pushed all the way back?

just put mine together. one of my stacks has a bit louder of a sound when cables pulled. anything on your end? what could this be?

@@AcupulaAcres will do. thanks
@@AcupulaAcresI did exactly that! Took a couple days to source the problem
@@jamesadamson4470 What was the problem? Just saw your post and will be buying one soon.
I did not pay close enough attention, and I routed the cable over the top of the pull-up bar bolt rather than underneath. I caught it pretty quick so it didn’t result in any damage, but it is easy to do so just be careful.
Can I try using it??
How is the massage chair in the room?

How difficult will it be to replace cables and pulleys ? Anything else will need replacing ? (trolleys ?)
Extremely easy but I don’t think you would ever need to. It’s a solid machine and should be very long lasting. The trolleys are the best I ever seen on a home gym.
@@AcupulaAcres 👍
how tall are you?
5’7”.
5’8” if it’s humid outside! 😁
how many inches from trolley to trolley?
Because the trolleys pivot it’s a hard measurement to give. It is 44” from the outside of the left metal upright to the outside of the left metal upright. I hope that helps
