Here are just a few reasons why this Functional Trainer deserves a place in your gym:
Aluminum has higher tensile strength and durability than plastic. This means a higher load capacity without worrying about the pulley collapsing.
Your gym is your sanctuary and keeping it tidy is key. With four storage hooks, you can neatly organize your cable attachments.
Whether you record your lifts in kilos or pounds, you can forget about having to do mental math to know the exact amount you’re lifting.
It has 29mm diameter handles and 1,984mm/78.1″ length.
It weighs 254kg/560lbs.
It has a black powder coating for enhanced rust resistance.
Each weight stack weighs 72.6kg/160lbs.
It has a 2:1 pull ratio, meaning that 100lbs of loaded weight will feel like 50lbs.
They’re made from durable aluminum.
In the box, you’ll find: two 160lb weight stacks, 16 aluminum pulleys, four guide rods, two height selector rails, cables, two handles, one multi-grip pull-up bar, and the remaining frame components.
Covered under our Limited Lifetime Warranty guarantees that your Functional Trainer will not break under normal use, and protects against defects in material, function and workmanship.
First off, Bells of Steel is a super company with a very solid product line. Their customer service is stellar, with quick communications and attentive responses. Product shipping is quick and tracking numbers are provided. After several purchases I can say this has always been my experience. My latest purchase was the functional trainer. Firstly, the shipping was quick. The FT comes in ten boxes and each box was carefully packed, well padded, strapped and taped. There wasn't a scratch or nick on any of the pieces. PERFECT! The weights for the selectorized weight stack were actually bagged individually, and were in a box within a box. They are perfectly cast, smooth as glass and come with quality 3M stickers to denote poundage. With the help of included assembly instructions and the video on the B of S site, assembly was quite easy. Takes approx. two hours. When assembled with bolts all tightened, the Functional Trainer is solid as a rock. The aluminum pulleys are silky smooth and the stack moves quietly on the guide rods. The pull up bar has options for several hand placements and is solid with a nice heavy non slip powder coat. The unit is compact, but is approx 5 feet wide and that allows for superior Cable Flyes compared to other narrower FT's. After decades of powerlifting and fitness training I can attest to the superior build quality of this unit. I really appreciate Bells Of Steel customer service ,their reasonably priced, well designed, quality equipment AND their CANADIAN presence!!!! The USA based fitness suppliers either don't ship to Canada or it's prohibitively expensive to do so. I have a gym in our winter home in the U.S., with equipment from all of the usual U.S. manufacturers/suppliers, and none of it is better than B of S. Overbuilt isn't automatically better! Thanks, and keep up the great work "BELLS OF STEEL"!
Hi Brian, Thank you so much for your in depth review of our functional trainer. We are delighted you have had a positive buying experience with us and that the FT has been up to snuff! We hope to continue to support you and other Canadians in their pursuit for well built, quality but affordable gym equipment ! All the best, Marcus & the BoS Team
USI was looking for a good commercial functional trainer, and you all delivered. The assembly was simple, but was missing a few bolts. Once assembled and did a few reps I was like okay nice.
Thanks for the 5 Star Review Marvin! Great to hear that you are enjoying your functional trainer! Happy lifting! Brandon and the B.o.S. Team
CAJust got mine and assembled it. So far we are loving it. Great rig and really appreciate the assembly video. My only feedback is that it would have been nice if the packages labelled the bolts :).
Hey Jamie, Thank you for the review and the feedback. Enjoy all the gainz! Yours in strength, William & the BoS crew
USBought this functional trainer primarily because of the overall product weight. My home gym is on the second floor and this was one of the lightest I found. Obviously you can get a more heavy duty piece of equipment but for what this offered at price point and weight this is working out really well. Delivered in 10 boxes missing one box lost in transit. GREAT response from Bells of Steel. No questions, no “let’s look into this,” just shipped out missing pieces the next day. Easy to assemble on my own for the most part. May need a hand to hold something up to get a bolt in but straight forward assembly. Smooth operation which was the first thing I checked for. Would really like a bit taller product with one more upper pulley position and I’m 5’11”. If my gym was on first floor probably would have opted for heavier gauge product and 180 or 200lb weight stack if I wanted to spend another 1k but for my setup this is damn near perfect. Side note: open the hooks up a bit more to hang accessories. Have to hook them on with carabiners instead of just hanging them up on their own because the hooks are bent too far closed
CanadaI’ve had the FT for a few months now and it is an excellent addition to my home gym. The price point of the BoS FT is slightly less than what I could find doing internet searches and the quality is excellent. On the advice of my Coach, I spent the money and it has proven to be extremely handy with variations of traditional exercises. It’s very smooth and easy on your joints and I could argue if you could only afford one accessory for the home gym, this would be the one. It really is….functional. The footprint of the FT is 3 feet by 5 feet and it’s 81 inches tall, so it takes up very little room. I’ve read a number of reviews that have had issue with the instructions but if you watch the BoS YouTube how-to-assemble the FT video, it’s fairly straightforward. I would suggest that BoS offer some more accessories such as some type of tricep pull down attachment, those cloth ankle straps, and possibly a lat pull down bar (I use a 6 foot dowel between the 2 ankle straps as a pull down attachment). Bottom line, I love the Functional Trainer! I’m not an employee and have no affiliation with BoS.
Hey Garrett, Thank you for the review, We ae so happy you are loving the Functional Trainer. You got a good coach there! As for the cable accessories, I'll let product development know but we do have a few accessories available. Enjoy the gainz! Yours in strength, William & the BOS crew
