 Did anybody workout with this before marketing the product?? August 17, 2008
The rack and smith machine work great. The lat bar is too narrow and the handles fall off very easy. The crossover cables rub on the butterfly seat bench and the butterfly cables are poorly set up and have to constantly be adjusted to work without making noise. It seems like this product was great in its intention, but it doesn't seem like anybody tested it before selling the product. I definitely would recommend a different home gym or save your money and don't get the crossover or butterfly station.

I have the Caribou III Multi Gym w/ cable crossover and 200 lbs weight stack, and this machine has the most painful setup procedure ever!
There're 2 major and 2 minor defects with this machine.
Major defects:
1) Right behind the pulley for the lat pull-down, there's a hole that the cable must pass through in order for the entire cable system to work. This rectangular hole is simply too small! I had to spent about 2 hours using a metal file to enlarge the hole, it's not only time consuming but stressful for your fingers/hand.
2) About 35% of the holes on the weight stack are very difficult for the pin to completely insert in, because several of the holes on the center metal rod (which holds the weight plates as they are lifted) do not line up properly with the ones on the weight stack.
Minor defects:
1) The holes on the weight stack are facing toward the rear of the machine, in other word, you can't place the machine close to a wall otherwise you can't pull/push the pin. In addition, it's hard to you know exactly how many pounds of weight stack you're lifting, because there's no number on each weight plate and the pin can only be inserted from the rear.
2) The included lat bar and short straight bar are as poor as it gets. The lat bar is narrower than usual and its rubber hand grip slides off very easily. Both bars are made with hollow metal rods that are more like thin plumbing pipes.
Since the whole Caribou III is very heavy and came in many long boxes, it's not something that can be easily returned, so please be prepare for these defects before you order. Although I have to say that nothing in its price range can do as much as the Caribou gym.
