How we ranked functional trainers & cable machines
Ranked on build and stability, weight capacity, adjustability, footprint, warranty, independent test reviews (BarBend, Garage Gym Reviews, FitRated) and value. We have not hands-on tested these units; numeric specs come from makers or published tests and should be confirmed on the maker's page before you buy.
Follow the manufacturer's installation and weight-limit instructions. Consider professional installation for wall and ceiling mounts. Read our Equipment Safety Notice.
