I got my F9 a little over a week ago and have been generally very pleased. Giving it five stars overall, but it’s not perfect. There are some areas where torque could improve the product at this price point.
It was easy to assemble despite the somewhat lacking instruction manual. It really helps to use the PDF version because the printing quality of the manual is rather poor and it can be hard to make out details. Luckily, the quality of the drawings is good in the PDF. Still, would it kill you to make a video?
One particularly cool thing about the F9 is the ability to adjust the width. I’m a big dude with a big arm span. Most functional trainers are 48 inches or less between the pulley rods. This is great for things like chest press, but too narrow for an ideal fly. With the F9, I can pop it open to wide mode and it adds another 10 inches between the pulleys. That makes for a lot more flexibility. I honestly didn’t care about being able to close it and never do. I bought this because I could vary the width and have been very pleased with that flexibility.
Build quality is great although it’d be nice to see aluminum pulleys instead of plastic. It’s not a big deal, but aluminum pulleys look way better and at this price point, they should at least be an option.
The one disappointing aspect of the F9 is one that is the same for most functional trainers. The attachments are mostly mediocre. The D handles are not terrible but it’s such a coincidence that the best grip pattern for the D handles is the torque logo. The foot attachment is not very useful for anything but kickback and even then, it’s not great.
The straight bar is nice though. Some knurling or positioning marks would be helpful, but it’s a nice bar. The squat harness is very cool too. It works perfectly and is pretty comfy. The strap is also basic, but useful.
I’ve already purchased replacements for almost every attachment. The only ones I’ll use long term are the harness and the strap.
Overall, the F9 is fantastic. I’d highly recommend one for anyone looking for a home functional trainer. I’m 6’ 2” and it works for me, but anyone taller might find it a little short. You also have to think of attachment length. For example, I got a 24” tricep rope instead of the more standard 28 inch.
The Free-Standing F-9 Fold-Away Functional Trainer is a perfect addition to complete my home gym! It's sharp looking, love the fold away design, can do anything and everything workout wise on this one machine. After I put in my order online at Torque Fitness the machine shipped quick, went up quick, and the gains will be coming quick!
Great piece of equipment. Took about 4 hours to put it together including the bench, but nothing was especially difficult. I've had two excellent workouts on it and looking forward to many more.
Happy to report that both my wife and myself absolutely love our new Torque Trainer. We are in our 60's and have both been active in the gym for the last 45 yrs. However when Covid hit we lost our desire to get back into the gym. We researched home systems like mad... Expensive (Tonal) to cheap (unknown systems) there was nothing that checked off all the boxes. So when I came across the Torque Folding Cable Trainer it was an instant purchase. We both love the flexibility and variety of weight training this affords, It fits perfectly in our great room corner across from our treadmill and hybrid stepper... and then it folds so nicely out of the way... AMAZING !
