Looks good and combines some new options previously unavailable.

The only downside is that I don't know whether this company's products are durable and whether the company will be around in a few years to support it if something breaks. Just looking at their equipment, it looks durable, closer to the newer, solid Bowflex equipment and better than the Crossbow stuff. Slightly less good than Bowflex only because I've tried the newer Bows and know they're durable and because Bowflex now has a history and will most likely be around in 5 years to provide support for the machine if needed. With Gold's, i'm not sure that they'll even be around or selling machines in 5 years.

Thus i'd say if you want it for the short term of a couple of years, it looks like a nice machine with some new possibilities, whereas over a few years or more it's hard to say whether it will last and whether the company will be around to support it if there are problems.

Depending on your time frame and the attraction of the new features, try one or get a Bowflex or Powertec.
