Best ValueRank #6 in All-in-One Home Gyms
Total Gym XLS
by Total Gym
Score
Replaces the discontinued Bowflex Revolution as the folding all-in-one pick. Bodyweight incline resistance rather than plates, 400 lb user capacity, and it folds to 9 inches deep — the practical choice when the gym shares a room.
Strengths
- ↑Folds to 9 inches deep for storage — rare in this category
- ↑400 lb maximum user weight
- ↑Bodyweight resistance, so there are no plates or discs to buy
Weaknesses
- ↓Bodyweight-only resistance caps how heavy you can go
- ↓90 inches long when open needs real floor space
Buyer sentiment
Buyers praise the folding storage, ease of use and build quality. Some flag the footprint when open.
Verdict: A no-subscription SpiraFlex home gym with smooth resistance and 100+ exercises — but a corporate history that demands due diligence.
Specs that matter
| Spec | Value |
|---|---|
| Resistance | SpiraFlex discs, up to 600 lb |
| Exercises | 100+ |
| Footprint | 10 x 7 ft |
| List price | ~$2,799 |
What you get
- No subscription — one-time purchase, no app required
- Smooth tension — consistent through full ROM, quiet operation
- High variety — genuinely 100+ named movements
What you give up
- Disc wear — SpiraFlex discs are consumables; verify parts supply
- Doesn't feel like weight — no inertial mass, weak transfer to barbell work
Buy it if you value smooth, quiet resistance and have the floor space. Skip it if you'll eventually want barbell or commercial-gym work.
Note: Nautilus filed Chapter 11 in 2024; assets acquired by Johnson Health Tech — verify warranty and disc availability on bowflex.com before buying. Resistance-training outcomes track volume, intensity, and progressive overload (Schoenfeld 2017, J Sports Sci), not modality.

Other all-in-one home gyms we rate
Ranked alternatives from the same category, with our score and the current price.
Small footprint (3' x 4'), dual pulley system, iFIT classes. A decent entry-level smart gym for apartment use.
Budget Smith machine + cable + leg developer combo. Plate-loaded (you supply the weights), bench included, and ships via Amazon — the largest owner-review record of the Smith machines here.
The Amazon-shipped all-in-one. The listing states a Smith machine, power cage, dual cable crossover with a 1:1 pulley ratio, pull-up station and a 2,000 lb capacity — feature-dense for under $2,000, though it does not publish a cable stack weight.
Tonal 2
Wall-mounted digital strength trainer with two electromagnetic resistance arms delivering up to 250 lb of resistance — Tonal 2 succeeded the original Tonal 1 (now refurb-only) and raised the price ceiling. Requires a mandatory 12-month $59.95/mo membership at purchase. Year-1 total runs ~$5,800 before tax at list, ~$5,000 with current $750 sale through 5/31/26.
The sub-$700 entry into this category, where the established all-in-one machines cost several times more. Roygym state a power cage with a dual pulley cable crossover, which covers the two things an all-in-one has to do.
