The Bottom Line the Bowflex is worth the money and space

First thing you should know about the bowlfex is the amount of room it takes up. The Power Rods extend about three feet from the center of the bowflex. You have to be extremely careful when doing reps, so as not to hit someone with the Power Rods if they are walking in the room that you are using bowflex in. Also, the bench comes down and adds about 4-5 feet downward from the center. The following (bad) diagrams show the difference in the way it unfolds.
The one on the left is the bowflex unfolded. The one on the right shows the bowflex when it is folded up.
(‘i’ is the Power Rods, ‘a’ is the center and ‘o’ is the bench-sorry this looks so bad, it looks good in word but not epinions)

So you must prepare the room you plan to place the bowflex in a room where, how can I say this, there is room to put it.

Second thing to know is about the price. The cheapest exercise equipment that the bowflex company puts out is $700 (most expensive is about a thousand dollars more-$1700). So, be wary before buying one, it will put a dent in your wallet.
