Many people have noticed their suitability for home gyms too-because of course, they combine all potential home-gym fixtures (treadmills, cross-trainers, rowing machines, benches), into one machine- you save a lot of space, and you achieve the same goals.
Read on to learn about our review on the MultiSystem Workbench by PowerTec.
Features
With a vivid, staggeringly bright yellow accent hue, this multi-gym is sure to make a statement in any location it is placed in. It doesn't look too clunky or industrial, and it allows you to access a wide range of possible workouts.
To provide some background on the reliability and quality track record of products from the company, it is worth knowing that PowerTec originated from a commercial gym background, so they have experience in tailoring their products to meet user needs.
With this PowerTec Multisystem Workbench/fitness station, you can perform a wide range of exercises including Calf Raises, Close Grip Bench Presses and Pull Downs, Incline Leg Lifts and Bench Rows, Squats, Lunges, and much more.
- Multi-User Capability: The greatest thing about this machine is how versatile and functionality-rich it is. This fitness station can be used by three people simultaneously, and another perk is that the footprint will remain the same. You will be benefiting both your body and the planet.
- TheLeverGym Advantage: Lever arms implemented within the design of this multi-gym drive the exercises, while the special weight plates are loaded directly onto the lever. This functionality 9 simply replaces the barbell.
- Increased Lateral Exercise Options: The additional inner-lat pulling handles allow you to unlock, access, and take advantage of additional exercises. There are over twelve single-station machines to select from, and each one has pre-set functionality to provide its own, specialised individual exercise machine; without taking up any extra space! Not only is this highly convenient for space-efficiency, but the user can also jump rapidly from 'station to station' while requiring minimal adjustments to do so. In comparison to the previous successive model, this Multi-gym by PowerTec has a shoulder press with an adjustable position.
- Enhanced Lumbar Safety: There is a luxurious layer of embedded padding on the seat for enhanced lower back and lumbar support. This is great for users who suffer from weaker bones, or have mobility difficulties in general. This multi-gym is perfect for all. After testing this product with a number of members from the BestReviews team (of varying ages), 8/10 users agreed that this was the most comfortable model of gym/exercise equipment they've used.*
- Enhanced Usage Safety: There is a handy implementation of a stopper for added protection and security during exercise with this multi-gym. There is a high-quality, well-built foot plate on the squat station (mentioned later), which has been redesigned from its previous models to offer enhanced support due to the wider surface area offered. We've tested many machines that overlook the importance of added safety when designing their products, so we can assure you that this will be a safe and reliable piece of equipment to keep in your home.
- Bench Press Station: Included in this multi-gym is an integrated Bench Press station. Some exercises we recommend doing on this station are chest presses with dumbbells- this helps build chest and pectoral muscles. You can also perform dumbbell rows- they are the best exercises for building your back muscles and overall lumbar strength. The integrated independent lever arms allow you to work out each arm exclusively, or lock both arms together to use this station like a traditional conventional Bench Press.
- Better Squat Station: On the squat bar, you can take advantage of a longer pin, as well as a new one-piece design to help improve resistance. You'll be two steps closer to achieving your dream booty with the purchase of this PowerTec Multigym.
- Maintenance-Free: There are no cables or pulleys included in this product, meaning you won't have to worry about rusting and constant need for lubrication of working parts. Simply assemble it once, and you're ready to go!

Am I Better Off Buying Bespoke Fitness Machines?
Generally, multi gyms have gained increased attention and popularity due to people's desire to access workouts more.
Customers are often tied between travelling to the gym (which may not be close to them) in order to reap the benefit of diverse workouts, or stay at home and spend money buying their own specialised equipment (which many people do not have enough disposable income to invest towards).
Due to this, multi gyms offer a new way to make diverse workouts accessible for all- by combining all of your workouts into a single-purchase machine. You can exercise a vast range of muscle groups without taking up too much space in your home.
On average, it can cost around £2000 (at least) to build an at-home gym comprised of various, good-quality, bespoke fitness machines. As a result, Multi-gyms, like this one by PowerTec, work out to be cheaper in the long run.
You can pick a great quality multi-gym for as little as £950, and an excellent quality one for a maximum of £2000! Cost-effectiveness and versatility are the top two power-points of multi-gyms in 2020. People are also on the hunt to reduce their own carbon footprints, so if we view this product holistically, multi-gyms are far kinder to the planet than buying several bespoke fitness machines.
To summarise, besides being top coffee-break talk with your colleagues, owning a multi-gym will offer the following benefits:
- Diversity in your workouts – work all muscle groups in one sitting
- Cardio Enhancement – you can adjust your speed and power to help reduce your risk of sports-related injuries
- Privacy – enjoy your workouts and exercise as sweatily as you want, nobody will be looking!
- 24/7 Availability – no need to wait around for a machine to free, as you'd often have to do in a gym
- Space and Cost Efficiency
- Fitted with everything you need to workout your entire body! Whether your goal is to burn fat, build muscle, or increase your endurance, our machine will help you achieve it!
- With our machine, you'll never need to buy any piece of home gym equipment ever again! We teamed up with some of the best sports equipment engineers to bring you the ultimate cable multi gym machine
- Level up your strength, size and endurance without needing to purchase extra weight! We've included a MASSIVE 90KG weight plate stack so that you can load your muscles up to the max!

The Final Verdict
In comparison to other multi-gyms, it is not the most compact model you could find. You do need to ensure that you have sufficient space to store this, however, a spare room is not necessary. That's the great thing about having multi-gyms.
The product will be able to last you a long time, as long as you take good care of it! To conclude, our ratings are defined as shown below:
Appearance: 9 / 10
Functionality: 8.5 / 10
Value for Money: 8 / 10
We would like to point out the best features of this particular model, which would be the attractive appearance, excellent build quality (most of their training machines are finished with a solid powder coat for enhanced durability), and careful safety measures. For all the features it has to offer, the price is very much affordable and holds great value for the money you spend.
The only downside may be that the colour scheme is a little industrial/commercial for the likings of some people's homes. Some people may not like how this multi gym looks in their bedroom, because of the bright yellow. This does, however, suit commercial settings really well- and it's a great choice for those who have dedicated home gym rooms.
