Default Anything Clearly Better Than The Nautilus/Bowflex Revolution?

Assuming about the same size, weight, and price, and a guy who can military press about 170, and will do his aerobics elsewhere. Specifically how would one this compared this to the Powertec multi station?

Do you even bother to read the stuff other people write in your forums?

Sounds like you are saying there was a thread on such machines already. I just bought a house and have a small to moderate size room on the second floor that I was thinking of putting a Nautilus Revolution in. Or perhaps that Powertec machine except that I worry that 1000 pounds or more on the second floor is dangerous. If this subject was discussed already it would be nice if someone directed me to the appropriate thread.

I nearly said something in this vein in my other post. I think part of the success of these machine's marketing is how they work aesthetically in one's home/office/den/etc.

I think one does well to divorce interior decorating from the equation. And like I said, I'd bother to argue against the machine, if I found a non sales person telling me of their value.

David,

I looked seriously at the Bowflex Revolution, was even pricing them on ebay and such. Instead I decided to get a kettlebell.

Less cost, takes up less room,both strength and aerobic, etc. There's not a lot in my thread, but there's a ton of information in the threads I link in my first post.
