i am with kathy, when i lived in a bigger place and was able to leave it set up i used it often. now that i live in a smaller place its just to much of a pain to pull out of the closet set up and then put away,i haven't used it at all. i was thinking of selling it to one of dh's coworkers really cheap but if i buy a house i would be kicking myself for getting rid of it.
EDIT:i didn't use it on its own i used with my other weight workouts. it gave me the option of cable back rows and other exercises that i could only do at the gym otherwise. its a useful machine if you have the space for it.

I have a Total Trainer made by Bayou Fitness (cost about $300.00 on e-bay), and I actually like it. It does fold up and becomes quite compact, so it doesn't take up that much room. I like the exercises you can do, especially the pull-ups and chin-ups. You can go from one exercise to another quite easily, just like Chuck Norris says about the Total Gym.
