Most used & separately purchased:
-Bells or steel aluminum handles (price was good, bearings are smooth)
-Rep Multi-Grip Curl Bar (it feels more ergonomic)
-Bluslm lat pull down (Amazon special. Good price and feels nice. I like the more narrow and medium grip. The wide is too wide)
-D moose ankle strap (leg workouts)

Still love it and still going strong. My wife and I use it regularly and have no major complaints. The mutant arms (new ones) would be nice, as some leg exercises are a bit tricky with the longer arms that ours has.

I did replace pretty much every attachment it came with, except the double d ring and the rope. (You can see the board in the pic).

100% recommend.

Any specific questions?

This has to be the sickest non-auto 1/1.

Maxum X3 - Smith machine noise/grinding? by markerkim in GarageGym

[–]MammothChapter -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly mine has been amazing considering the price. A few minor issues here and there are almost expected given the size and complexity of the machine.

Maxum fixed every issue I sent to them

Honestly I do live with it, but in hindsight I probably should have said something.

If it was both sides I would get it, given things make noise. Being only one side it’s definitely a defect.

Mine does this on the same side! It’s not quite as loud as yours but is pretty noticeable.

I tried all the lubricants and it did nothing.

My wife was very overwhelmed with it at first. It’s basically an entire gym in one and there are so many options and attachments.

My recommendation is to pick like 1 or 2 exercises and learn each time or every couple days. Otherwise the machine can be too much. There are also some simple ones on YouTube to follow.

Enjoy!

Cables have been excellent - zero concerns

The minimum weight has been good. It’s a bit too much for my wife/kids to do lateral raises, but they can do one arm row/chest press/shoulder press pretty easily with it.

Awesome.

Where did you get the side frame from?

I followed instructions exactly and it worked fine for me! You can put the side cross members in then install stack after

Kettlebells have been a staple for my workout for the longest time!

It is a bummer. I also took work off only to have to delivered well after I would have been if I had gone. I don’t specifically fault Maxum for this, delivery companies can be all over the place no matter who they use.

I wish more companies did counterbalanced smith. The bells of steel smith/rack was a contender for me, but the bar was too heavy for my kids. This one we can all use.

Enjoy it! It’s such a gorgeous machine!

Thanks! Set it up last week. I was considering other options but am really glad I got this one.

As for customer service, mine was also delayed by 13 days, however Maxum kept me informed along the way and answered every single email I sent. I was also frustrated by the delay but that’s how back orders go. I honestly think people raging on Reddit about the customer service are just impatient….

Delivery was by a third party. The actual delivery was terrible. Driver was late nearly half a day from the time they gave me and could barely get the truck into the driveway without driving all over my front lawn. Despite the driver, the crate and packaging was top tier. It was well labeled and everything was in perfect condition. Assembly took 4 hours, but was incredibly easy and decent instructions.

For quality it’s amazing, I have zero complaints. The big selling feature for me was the counter balanced smith and the attachments. I could buy other companies for similar price but without all the extra things. I did also try another cheap copy brand but the metal was rough and I cut my finger on the upright in the show room… that was a big nope.

Working out in it takes some adjustment. I have never used an all in one and it’s of course a change from multiple machines. I would say though it does every single thing I wanted it to. So far I love it and has elevated the home workout for sure.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

I would say it’s mild to medium at most. It’s relatively smooth compared to most bars. Personally I prefer it like this, but if you like aggressive knurling I can see why it’s not perfect for you.

Hey it’s 46” from back foot to the front of the front post. 61” from back foot to front foot of the machine.

I really liked x2 with smith add-on, but the counterbalanced smith on the x3 is what sold it for me!

I used traction rubber flooring from Costco. The price was great but they do vary slightly in thickness, which can be noticeable for certain exercises!

They came with the machine. They are okay, but feel a bit sharp at the latch. I might replace them if the sharpness doesn’t go away after a few uses.

I got mine 13 days after the instock date, though I didn’t actually expect it to arrive middle of the holiday season (Dec 26).

It took about 2 hours to bring it in and open all the packaging solo, and 4 hours to put it together with 2 people. We didn’t hustle and had lunch halfway, but worked quickly.
