CUSTOMER QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
How does it compare to say the SC 1000?
Take a look below at the description. It does have the safety you are looking for. If you are a heavy lifter my suggestion is going with the SCB as it is a little more substantial. Either one of these machines are excellent pieces that I would personally use.
The Series 7 Smith Machine. Set to a 7-degree reversed pitch, the Series 7 allows natural upper and lower body movements for maximum muscle interaction; a feature not found in the traditional Smith Machine. User safety is provided by 20 cross-member lock-out points that are accessible with a simple 15-degree rotation of the bar, eliminating the need for a spotter. For those exercises that demand freeweight movement, the 14-position gunrack with 17″ extra heavy-duty safeties is also set to a 7-degree reversed pitch providing convenient lift-off points and predictable racking.

Please tell me the size (length, width, height) of the products after packing, the number after packing and the weight after packing.
It came via UPS in about 3 or 4 boxes. 8 feet long and just under 200 lbs. It was on a pallet and they will charge extra to move it anywhere. Normally they will just leave the pallet in your drive way. You can take it apart from the pallet and move it inside but just be aware.
Answer #1 on April 16, 2018
What is the weight capacity?
At least 400 lbs. That’s what came w machine when I bought it.
Answer #1 on February 18, 2017
I’ve used 365 lbs so far, still smooth could use more.
Answer #2 on February 18, 2017
Anyone else find this machine loud? Maybe I just need to lube it differently?
Mine gets loud when it is not properly balanced or the tube stoppers at the top or bottom come loose. If they are in place, it is very smooth and quiet.
Answer #1 on November 14, 2016
This machine looks amazing, does the smith bar stay even under load like a gym machine or does it wobble?
This piece is a Commercial item that we put in gyms all the time. It’s built tough! The bar does not “wobble” under load – even max load. It’s smooth and quiet riding up and down the guide rods. This is Linear Bearing Smith like you find in the clubs, thus you will have no additional movement of the bar like a lower end machine.
Answer #1 on September 18, 2014
What type of weights can be used? Standard or Olympic style or both?
The GS348Q uses only Olympic style plates.
Answer #1 on August 10, 2017
Is this machine counter balanced?
Yes, In today’s standards it is a counter balanced smith machine and the lift off weight is 25lbs. I hope this helps.
Answer #1 on March 3, 2015
Does this set include the weight plates as well?
No, the weights need to be purchased separately.
Answer #1 on April 23, 2015
Is it 66 in with the bar or does the bar stick out more?
It is 70″ bar end to bar end
Answer #1 on January 21, 2015
How often is a lube needed on the leaner bar using light weight always on bar due to disability?
I would just hit the guide rod with 100% silicone spray once every 3 months.
Answer #1 on March 14, 2022
Can I do hip thrust on this machine?
Yes
Answer #1 on August 11, 2021
Can you get a pullup bar mounted on the front as an option? Can you get 24 inch safety arms?
Unfortunately there is not a pull-up bar option. The optional Selectorized Lat Attachment for the GS348Q mounts in this area. This machine comes with 17″ safety arms and does not have an option for longer safety arms.
Answer #1 on September 22, 2014
Can this machine be used for free weight squats and bench press?
Yes! lock smith bar up top and use anterior rack mounts to do anything with a free olympic bar
Answer #1 on January 25, 2017
I'm 6'2". Will I be able to do calf raises with a block on this?
Yes sir you can, I’m 6’4″ and its no problem. This is a really good machine, it’s got the 7 degree backward angle which works good for squats or chest and shoulders. Great piece.

"Smith machine arrived on time. It took 2 people all day to assemble the machine. Ended up with two bolts missing which were easy enought to replace. So far its a great piece of equipment."
~ Robert C
"Nice and solid machine. Happy with purchase."
~ Frode S
"Solid piece of equipment. Just got it and am not disappointed. You'll definitely need at least two people to put it together."
~ Peter A
"The machine arrives in 3 boxes on a long pallet. This machine was super easy to put together. It took 2 of us about 3 hours to do it. I did majority of the work myself, the 2nd person just helped hold pieces in place while I screwed them together; otherwise it would have taken about 4 hours on my own. I love that this machine has the squat rack/half cage in addition to the smith machine so it really allows for numerous exercises. It also comes with a piece that you can attach to the machine to hold an olympic bar. The smith machine moves really smooth, the bar is lighter than an olympic bar, but still works great & I have not had any issues with it. Definitely delivered on everything that I was wanting to finish my home gym."
