Is this worth 300 bucks?
The local places here suck, so I'm trying to find a good online deal.

This one is about half as much, but it looks like it's cheaply built.

First one looks better for me. You could work your arms with it as well.

For as much money as the first one, you can get to the gym and access a whole lot more equipment, and of better quality. Personally, I wouldn't bother with either.

Only real difference is the first one looks like it has thicker padding and it has a preacher.

Go to the gym! Doesn't matter if you are just starting out, we've all been there! Don't bother going to check the gym out first, if you know where it is just go. Obviously don't sign up for a month straight away, pay for a single session to see if it is equipped well etc.
But don't feel intimidated by all us juice heads! We all started somewhere too.

Spinal, this is what I do for a living. I sell home/commercial fitness equipment. I wouldn't buy either of them, but for a different reason than other people have said. Neither one of those pieces is nice enough, if you become serious. Go to the gym, get a base, and save some money if you want to work out at home. If you buy home equipment on a tight budget, you get sh*t, and don't use it. Good luck in whatever you do. By the way, the second one is the better quality piece if you want to know. The Keys brand is a knockoff, but it is built pretty well.

If you are only looking to buy one piece it has to be a rack.

I have a smith machine and I think I paid about $300 for it. Not heacy duty or anything, just a little home unit. I think it can hold about 600 lbs on the bar, which is more than enough for me. Plus it has two pullies. I think I had to get the bench seperate. I really don't remember because I've had it for years.
