Excellent Value

by conzac , Apr 18 '09
Pros: Clean, well equiped.  Helpful staff. The price can't be beat.  There is also no contract.
Cons: If you're looking for classes, you'd be better off somewhere else.
I just joined the PF in Brockton, MA.  The gym has everything you need unless you're a competitive body builder or world class athlete. There is at least two machines and sometimes four, for every exercise. The locker rooms and ...

Planet Fitness on Paxton St., Harrisburg, PA

by curtjames , Jun 02 '08
Pros: Everything.
Cons: Nothing. ;)
I love the place. The people at the front desk call me (and everyone else) by their first name. The entire staff is personable, fit, and helpful. The location I attend is the Paxton Street gym - 3460 Paxton St. Harrisburg (Paxton St), PA 17111 ...

No Frills Fitness Manassas VA

by beltpack , Sep 11 '09
Pros: Clean, roomy, plenty of cardio, free weights, cable machines, weight and ab benches. Great price.
Cons: I admit it's hard not to grunt (LOL!).
I'm really happy with my Planet Fitness. It's clean, roomy and well-equipped. The atmosphere is good for FITNESS. I do a cardio machine to start (5 types of machines available, including treadmills) then mostly free weights and cables, focussing on one ...

No grunting = Small price to pay

by riddick021 , Jun 03 '07
Pros: Cheap. Cheap. Cheap! Gym membership for the average person. Lots of Machines.
Cons: None for me.
I think everyone who is writing negative reviews is an experienced gym goer. I have to admit I have been pretty lazy for the last couple of years and have hardly ever gone to the gym. I'm not fat but I'm not very muscular yet. I think these are the type ...

For the everyday person, NOT FOR BODYBUILDERS or experts

by nlkflint , Jun 13 '09
Pros: Lots of cardio with TV's.  Equipment and people not intimidating.
Cons: If you are a bodybuilder looking for extremes in weights, not for you. 
A great place for an everyday person to work out.  Barebones.  Equipment. No fluff, no frills.  No classes, no daycare--which is great as I don't need it. The weights don't go very high, so NOT FOR BODY BUILDERS.  More for the ...

To those who are "body-builder jerks".....Planet is not for you........

by diodog2003 , Jun 21 '07
Pros: planet fitness is not a place for jerks! it's for regular folks!
Cons: the only con is getting around the jerks who still come to planet gyms!
i keep hearing, reading all the bad vibes about planet fitness.....being "this and that" since it used to be "this and that" (or gold's gym), etc...... and most if not all the comments are from the types of MEN who have way too much testosterone for ...

It's meant for beginners, not experienced weightlifters

by ryanspop , Oct 05 '07
Pros: Unbeatable price; is designed for beginners; truly a Judgment Free Zone. Cheaper than most gyms.
Cons: None at all for the price.
** 10/15/07 Edit - To clarify, I am referring to the Whitehall Planet Fitness in Charlotte, NC. This particular gym is in a sizable office park and was built new as a Planet Fitness - it was not a Gold's gym prior. I am currently on the $10, no contract, ...

Just what I need

by happy_go , Jun 27 '08
Pros: price, cleanliness, quality and quantity of machines, customer service
Cons: no classes, no pool`
I've been going to the Planet Fitness in Amesbury, MA for a month now and I love it. I wasn't sure what to expect for only $10 a month, but it has exceeded my expectations. I paid $15 to try the gym for one day to see if it was a good fit for me. ...

$19.99 per month to get fit at this Planet so why are we leaving?

by jo.com Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 10, Aug 30 '04
Pros: A lot of equipment; a huge cardio vascular area; cheap!
Cons: No classes; lack of staff on the floor.
We belonged to Wo rld Gym for 3 years. Imagine our surprise when we walked in and discovered that World Gym was gone and Planet Fitness was there. The owners and staff for the most part have remained the same but ...

Not as bad as many here claim.

by dbel72 , Jun 11 '07
Pros: Reasonable price, open 24 hours a day, good equipment.
Cons: Small area.
As of yet, I have not had the experiences that others have had a PF. When I took my tour, I specifically asked about the rules and policies. The PF that I joined is pretty relaxed. They don't have all of the retarded rules like some of the other PF's. I ...

Why all the hate? I love it here (Overland Park, KS).

by vandal913 , Sep 23 '08
Pros: -price-amount of equipment-diverse crowd-clean
Cons: -could use another water fountain-need dumbbells heavier than 75 lbs.-'lunk alarm' is annoying
I see a whole lot of negative reviews for Planet Fitness, and I really don't understand. Maybe I'm just lucky to have a good location, but I've always thought it was a great place to workout for somebody such as myself, who doesn't need a bunch of ...

3.  New equipment
4.  Convenient
Cons: 1.  Piped in music - LOUD
2.  Permanent (?) locker usage by some
1.  Great facility and ok staff.  Staff only checks you in and answers questions.  Can show you around and explain equipment use.  Have seen some I think are staff providing personal fitness services, but think they are off the ...

Went to the local planet fitness to try, customer service experience was a turnoff

by bolfrey , Aug 18 '07
Pros: Clean gym with adequate weight equipment and good cardio options for 10 per month.
Cons: -No trial membership allowed, -Tacky customer service
I tried the planet fitness in Greece New York. I have some family and friends who are new to working out who recommended it to and told me it was 10 a month. For that price I didn't expect much but figured that it was worth a try. I didnt get a ...

Planet Unfitness

by goodidea , May 31 '05
Pros: Inexpensive.
Cons: Focus on high volume/no service memberships, poor attitude toward good fitness and fitness goals.
This Springfield, MA location was previously a Gold's Gym. Although the gym appeared to struggle financially as a Gold's, the overall attitude of the management and the members under the Gold's regime was positive and geared toward fitness-related ...

NOT Judgement Free

by margrita39 , Aug 29 '07
Pros: Cheap - $10 for one location, $20 if you want to use all three.
Cons: Too JUDGEMENTAL,stupid dress code, not enough equipment, non-motivating atmosphere.
My World Gym in Colorado Springs became a Planet Fitness on July 1 - the whole thing was kept a secret until the Saturday prior to the changeover. I read the reviews on this site, so I was somewhat prepared for what I was going to encounter - but words ...
