A power station for the domestic area should be. Ultimately, my choice has fallen to the 9.0 power station of Maxxus. Why I decided to make a decision for this power station can be found in this experience report on the power station.  

Therefore, it became the Maxxus power station

Surely the power station of Maxxus is not a cheap power station, but when buying I was mainly two things necessary. On the one hand, a high quality of the power station and a long service life. Secondly, I wanted to have as many training possibilities as possible and this is what the power station gives me. The one with the power station of one can do more than one exercise. Of course the advantages of this power station on the paper were outstanding, but it had to prove itself in practice. But here, too, I was fully convinced of the power station.  

Technical details of the power station

The power station is made of solid steel tube. The seats at the power station are padded and held in a black design.In general the Maxxus power station is held in a black lacquered design. The rope pull required for the individual training equipment consists of steel cables that can withstand loads of up to 1000 kg. To protect the steel cables they are coated with nylon. Special emphasis is placed on the various training possibilities and the high weight during the exercises. For instance, the weight of the barbell weights can be as high as 300 kg, the butterfly can reach up to 150 kg, and the pull-up handles can be up to 180 kg. The power station is equipped with a barbell, with a duplex station, with dip station, with a training bank with curlpult, with a Beincurler, with a Butterflystation as well as a rowing station. In addition, the power station has a suspension for a punching bag. A punching bag is not included in the delivery. The power station comes in dimensions of 580 x 2.040 x 2.140mm, with a weight of 260 kg.On the power station the manufacturer grants a five-year guarantee.  

Handling the power station

Basically I must say I was really frightened when the power station was delivered. It was supplied by a forwarding company in a variety of packages. On the one hand, the weight has deterred me, but also the construction. But the structure was very simple and easy to handle. The installation instructions for the power station are clear and easy to understand. What surprised me positively in comparison to other power stations, one has to make for the benefit of the individual training possibilities, no conversions. Whether barbells or exercises with the Beincurler, you could start immediately. In general, the exercises with the power station are very simple, but the upholstery, for example at the bank, can also be ensured. In the case of the power station, it is also possible to expand the station, for example with a punching bag or other weights. With this possibility, the station can also be complemented very well.  

Easy maintenance of the power station

From such a large power station as the power station you would like to have something as long as possible. For this reason, care plays a not insignificant role. Due to the processing of the power station, the maintenance of the system is very simple. As already mentioned, the basic construction is very massive made of steel. This steel is lacquered to ensure the best protection. In the event of dirt or dust, the entire power station can be cleaned at any time with water and a cloth. This makes the Maxxus power station very easy to maintain without much effort.  

Smaller disadvantages at the power station

After two months in use, I have not only found advantages at the power station, but also two disadvantages. Thus, the butterfly at the power station is very high. If you do not have a body size of almost two meters, you get problems during training. Unfortunately, you can not make any different settings, here the manufacturer would have to improve again. The second disadvantage relates to the dimensions and the weight of the power station of Maxxus.The power station is very compact, but you need a lot of space for the power station. Also because you need in addition to the installation area, space for the exercises. If you do not have a garage or a large free space, the power station can not set up. Not to be neglected is the high weight of the power station. Thus the power station comes to a weight of 260 kg. The high space requirement, but also the weight for the power station is certainly a small disadvantage.
