Best praise vs top criticism for Ironmaster IM2000 Self-Spotting System
“Hi! I'm not really interested in producing just a stand alone functional trainer. There are tons of options already in the market and most are very similar to all the others. We have been working on a new machine for the past couple years that incorporates a sophisticated cable system with great features combined with the IM2000 style self-spotting system. Took longer than expected but I had to make sure it was epic and unique like all Ironmaster gear. Finally have the design done and we've been training on a pre-production unit at IM HQ. Will be coming out soon. Look for it at Home Gym Con!”
“At this point, are you happy with the adjustable dumbbells or do you consider getting a set of real dumbbells in the future? Asking because I got the ironmasters for my homegym and I cant wait for the day I'll get rid of them and get a full set of dumbbells, switching the weights between sets feels like such a waste of time. I guess yours are faster to change tho..”
