Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-06-23 Summary: Inexpensive, Durable, Effective, Versatile and Efficient ... I bought a Total Gym 1500 from Amazon over three years ago and have used it faithfully two or three times a week every since. I don't know what the difference is between the 1100 and the 1500 but they look the same, so I assume they are quite similar. We have dedicated a room of our home to also accommodate free weights (with dumbbells and barbell), weight bench and a recumbent bike, that we still prefer for some exercises. So, we don't use the Total Gym for all we could use it for, but we love it for several exercises. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-05-22 Summary: FIXED MY BACK ... After 15 years of lower back trouble caused by lumbar stenosis I have found my miracle. My previous treatments consisted of cortisone epidural injections, pain pills, physical therapy etc. I was ready to give up.

One of the great things about it is the fact that there's so many grip on it, close, regular, wide, different hand position to make it more ...more
