C20 All-In-One Trainer

Took a while to set up, but sturdy as a brick once built.
Ditch the membership and get one of these. Force USA knocked it out of the park with this!

It’s a beauty and a beast! Smoothest cables that u can adjust any way, no more attachments on the ground cos there’s heaps of storage! The smith machine can go so low u can do RDLs without using a step! The built in fractional plate u can add for smaller increments on the stacks is genius! If buying don’t set up as close to the wall as it’ll go because it’s hard to get to the barbell storage and you can’t use the foot plate all the way back.
It’s damn impressive, specially going from a basic all in one to this makes it all the more impressive!

Absolutely epic bit of kit.

The build quality is phenomenal, and the CAD precision of the C20 in its putting together, is outstanding.

Albeit straightforwards to construct, ensure you have a friend to help at certain stages, and don't expect just a 2 hour build.

The team and G&F went above and beyond when a part inside the crate arrived damaged, and fast track couriered out the replacement part immediately.

Couldn't recommend the response from the team any higher, and a multiple time purchaser with Gym & Fitness (this having been my largest purchase with them to date) I can unequivocally say I will be back.

C20 - Just do it, you will not regret it.

You will not regret buying this one bit, except maybe while building 🤣 but that pain will be short lived and a thing of the past once you finish and see that this is a thing of beauty. Goodbye to my gym membership and the commutes back and forth. This does everything you could ever need. I’ll just be living out in my gym shed now, patiently waiting for the sliding bench 💪

What a beast absolutely love the variety from something that has such a reasonable footprint

The C20 is fantastic. Solid build and is versatile. Comes with a lot of attachments, but to take full advantage, you need the sliding bench which works well. I got the 1st Gen sliding bench -still good. Highly recommend.

Build quality is phenomenal, having all the attachments is also amazing. The c10 bench attachment also works perfectly with the unit so that you can hit every body part. The team at gym and fitness are also great, they put through an excellent package deal for me and it was shipped to me in just over a month. Would recommend to anyone.

“I absolutely love my Force USA C20. It’s an incredible all-in-one trainer and performs flawlessly. My only concern is that the paint seems to scratch pretty easily during normal use. Do you recommend any protective coating, touch-up paint, or preventative care tips to help keep it looking new long term?”

The best!

This thing doesn’t leave me wanting for any more, it does it all.

My only critique is that the spotter arms are a little hard to uninstall due to the locking design, but other than that flawless.

Took 2 days to assemble and the instructions were very clear and easy, finishes were perfect with no damages out of the box.

Some labels for the smith machine heights and the pulley ratios (2:1/1:1/1:2) would have been helpful but nothing a few minutes with a label maker couldn’t fix.

Although I haven’t used it yet, I did get the letter of medical necessity through TrueMed so I could use HSA funds with this lifetime of a purchase.

It provides a lot of confidence that I don’t need to buy another machine when I “outgrow” this one like the two previous, because it’s fully complete.

I’d recommend going straight to the heavier weight stack day 1 as leg presses have nearly maxed this thing, with the standard included weights. Naturally you’d pair this with the matching weight bench.

I spent countless hours researching fitness equipment and was about to fill an entire 25x25 converted garage with individual equipment until I came across the Force USA C20. I purchased the entire system including sliding bench and storage rack along with extra weight stacks and extra free weights. After adding just a couple of accessories like an ez curl bar, barbells, and a lighter more easily movable bench I now have the perfect gym that allows me to work every muscle group perfectly. This system paired with the shred app for workout routines has me seeing the biggest gains to date. I did have a slight issue with assembly but force USA did right by me and remedied the issue professionally. I highly recommend the c20 above anything currently out and if the cost is causing you to hesitate trust me and just pull the trigger you won’t regret it.

I was nervous to purchase this machine due to the price versus the top tier competitors. I actually had a top tier competitor full built out and ready to purchase when I learned about the sliding bench feature. This got me intrigued so I started checking out reviews. When I made the decision to purchase, I was nervous the whole time waiting on delivery to see how the sliding bench functioned. I really wanted to be able to get a full leg day workout in without buying additional pieces of gym equipment. It has exceeded my expectations! This machine is highly functional, and you can get a FULL RANGE OF MOTION leg press and hack squat with the sliding bench. With the weight stack upgrade there is plenty of weight for strong individuals to get you plenty of weight to hack squat and most will not be able to max out the leg press either. It also comes with chains to help adjust for height to get full range of motion.

Leg Extension attachment is awesome and can be hooked to the weight stacks or loaded with plates. The bench also comes with a preacher curl attachment with a bar rest, which is nice to have. My only con is the laying down leg curl is no good. I can't really get a full squeeze without discomfort. The leg curl is just not designed very well, but everything else is so top notch I'm keeping this review at 5 stars.

The base C20 machine is a commercial quality beast. The cable system and smith machine are incredible. The Smith Machine is not free floating, so it is heavier than a normal Smith Machine which I actually like. Machine comes with all the attachments you need, and they are pretty high quality in my opinion. Saves you a lot of money with all the free attachments.

I paid for assembly and it was scheduled for the day after delivery and finished in about 5 hours. Very satisfied with the guys who put mine together. The sliding bench is not part of assembly, so you have to do it yourself, but it was fairly simple and took about 2 hours. Delivers by 18-Wheeler so must be able to get in and out of a neighborhood or you will need to meet the driver somewhere. I met mine at the end of the road with a trailer.

I am extremely happy. Best money I have ever spent, and I will most likely add the maintenance for 5 years just to make sure this thing is well taken care of and get me the extended warranty. I don't plan on going to a gym ever gain. Very satisfied customer at the moment.

I have been training on the C20 for the last 2 months. The assembly of the unit went well and I appreciated how all hardware and parts were packaged by step. I watched a youtube video of step by step instructions, which was more helpful than using the app or paper instructions.

The quality of the unit is good, however, the quality of paint/finish leaves much to be desired as it scratches fairly easily with normal use. The overall construction is solid and I expect it to last many years. The cable system is smooth and training with the trolley arms is a game changer. The smith machine is smooth, but again, lots of scratching on the sleeves at the ends of the bar. The weight plate storage pegs seem cheap as some will tighten fully while some do not. And again, lots of scratching on the finsh. Also, I am not a fan on how the j-cups and spotter arms attach to the frame. They can be difficult to remove and cause damage to the paint on the back side. Looking past the cosmetic issues, the C20 is still an awesome machine. Minus 1/2 star for the paint.

Customer service also left much to be desired. There was an issue with shipping and I tried reaching out to Force USA by phone. It took several attempts over the course of the day for someone to answer. When I did get an answer, the woman I spoke to was very short and unapologetic with her response. She did end up helping but wasn't pleasant to speak with. I also was missing weight plates with the weight stack upgrade. I reached out via email and didn't receive a response, besides a shipping confirmation sent several days later. I'm glad they helped, but the communication from this company can be improved. Minus 1/2 star for customer service.

Overall, I am happy with my purchase and look forward to years of use. I

First, amazing machine work, well-designed, kitchen sink machine. Kudos to engineering. The pulleys are aluminum, the cables run up and down, all the way to the floor, and the heads have 180-degree movement, which was genius.
The only thing I would do, which we ended up doing with our two machines, is put the plungers on the outside. On the inside, they limit the machine's operational capabilities.
Also, not enough of the weight pegs come with the machine to hang all the different plates. We ordered 3 more sets, online, and they fit bc the machine is standard 3", and installed them (work great).

My wife and I use our C20 five to six times a week. I do 90+ minutes of strength training per session. The C20 has exceeded my expectations in every way. I would say it is one of the best purchases I have ever made. In addition, Vee Remels, who manages customer support, has been exceptional. Before the purchase we visited the Draper headquarters and had a chance to try the C20. After the purchase, Vee was responsive to every question for delivery and installation. We also purchased ForceUSA’s VersaFit flooring for our entire gym floor and it is also outstanding. We could not be happier.

The cables for the trolleys and the low and high points feel fantastic. I love the smith machine. It’s solid with no side sway. No complaints for the included attachments. Overall my workouts are now highly efficient with many different effective variations available.

Putting the thing together wasn’t too bad. Took me about a week and a half. I’m bad at that stuff too and made several mistakes. You can probably do it better than I did.

I can’t give 5/5 because the paint finish is not up to par IMO. There is some chipping, bubbling, and surface rust in a few places. It’s not as durable or applied as well as other competitors. If 4. 5 was an option that’s what I would choose.

I did a lot of research before purchasing this functional trainer. In my opinion it’s the best, most versatile piece of equipment on the market. It’s pricey but is built extremely well and is commercial grade so it has the same feel as a big gyms equipment. The arms on the cable are a game changer compared to other brands. As someone who is 6’ 1” I’m able to get full extension on all the exercises. The sliding bench is great as well, you can really do pretty much any exercise with the C20.

A few small criticism: The instructions aren’t great and It would be nice if force USA put out a video helping put it together. It’s a lot of work and took two of us 2. 5 days to put together with sliding bench. I ended up purchasing free weights from rogue (speckled) because I didn’t love the look of the force usa free weights. Those could be improved upon.

Overall I’ve had the trainer for a few weeks and I absolutely love it. This will be the cornerstone of my home gym for many years!!

Love everything about it. Couldn’t be happier and there support is dialed! Vanessa is the best:ok_hand::skin-tone-3:

I usually don’t write reviews, but I absolutely love my new C20. It arrived about three weeks ago, and it’s already been a massive upgrade from my old functional trainer. This thing is built like a tank, and the arms are so versatile that I keep finding new ways to use it. Fantastic job all around!

Great all in one workout system. The husband I don’t have to travel to the gym anymore, this takes care of all of our workout needs.

Absolutely love it, fits all the requirements and much much more. Just awesome for me and my whole family.

This is our first home gym. It took years to have the space available and pull the trigger on a home gym. We ordered the C20, upgraded weight stack, gunner bar, sliding bench and barbell weights. The cost was tough to swallow (9K) but…. the quality of this machine is incredible. I tend to get picky and a little over critical of engineering and quality of build when spending a lot of money. The C20 is an absolute TANK. The finishing touches and special care to engineering are actually beyond what I expected and really makes you feel good about the purchase. My wife and I would not have agreed to spend this kind of money if we didn’t have hopes that this was a buy-once, cry-once scenario. It definitely is.

The only critique I can say is that you can tell that the sliding bench was built before the C20 was engineered. The padding isn’t the greatest and the comfortability of the leg curl is very sub par. The leg press works well and certainly beats the cost and size of a stand alone unit. It just doesn’t have that same “we went the extra mile” finish. I would still rate the build quality of the sliding bench high, maybe an 8 out of 10 where the C20 is a 10 out of 10 and beyond all day long. Overall we are very happy with our purchase.

If the sliding bench wasn’t sitting next to a C20, you probably wouldn’t think twice about the few setbacks. When they redesign this to be at the same level as the C20, it would be nice if Force USA would offer a generous incentive to customers who purchased the original sliding bench and own a C20 so we can complete the package.

I did have an issue with the seat back on the sliding bench during installation. It was defective but John @ Force USA customer service worked with me and sent me a new piece immediately. Good customer service. Thank you.

Oh, one last thing, the C20 is not available in the Force USA app yet. Please get this added ASAP!
