I want and need an affordable home gym. Has anyone used the Weider 245 Weight Trainer or X-Flex gym? These are gyms are between $300-$400. I am not expecting the same quality of that in a gym or the more expensive models. I simply want a basic machine to build muscle in the privacy of my own home...

Any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated...

Don't know about that model, but I went to Play It Again Sports and found a great used home gym that had all the features I wanted plus a lot more. It was in good condition, and at half the price you mention.

Also check out overstock.com, there was a really good looking Gold's Gym in there for around $490.00 with $2.95 shipping.

I tried talking my husband into letting me have it just because it had a leg press feature but he didn't bite.
