I have used the Precor stretch machine at the gym for years. I wanted a stretch machine at home and found the Nitrofit. I found it very easy to put together, the video instructions are excellent. I am impressed with the stability of the Nitrofit and it will be used daily for a long time. Love it! It's a good value and well made.

Could not have asked for anything more in terms of quality of product and online instructions they provide is great even when you are not "tool" handy!

First off - the "how to" video makes assembly super quick and easy. I didn't have to look as the instructions once.As for the machine - I love the stretches. I set it up in my home gym and now it's easy to add critical stretches between reps of weights and after cardio.Sure - you can always get on the floor on a mat (like I used to), but having a machine with a tilting seat makes getting into and out of stretches so much easier and more convenient.I wish I'd bought this years ago.

I've had this machine for three months and already I see significant changes. I am a 67 year old man and I was no longer able to pick up a pencil from the floor by bending over. Now I pick up a pencil without difficulty. I am getting closer to my next goal which is to touch the floor with my fingertips without bending my knees. I am very pleased with my machine to date and look forward to seeing the improvement in my golf swing.

I used a machine similar to this at the gym and loved it. After researching several machines offered on Amazon, I decided on this one. It is very sturdy and easy to use. You are in complete control, and can ease into each stretch to the point that you feel comfortable. There is the tiniest wobble when sitting on the seat, but I think it’s due to how the parts fit together on the adjustable base to allow the seat to move forward and backwards. It is very sturdy!I have had lower back and hip pain for a while now and this machine helps tremendously. The full routine of stretches, provided on the illustration panel, only take a few minutes and make a world of difference. I sleep so much better now without tossing and turning from aching all night. I bought this on sale, but it is worth every penny sale or no sale.My only note is that we don’t need the ability to adjust the base. Unless you are really tall, I doubt it would be an issue. The one at the club was smaller than this one and numerous people of all sizes were able to use it affectively.We keep it behind a chair in the living room, and it is barely visible (see picture). It makes it very easy to use in passing throughout the day and while watching TV in the evening.I had a question after I received it and I easily got in contact with the seller. They responded immediately and resolved my issue.

The unit is exactly what I was looking for. I was initially looking to buy the Precor and glad I didn’t spend the extra $$. The Nitro offers more options

In the pre-COVID-19 world I was going to the gym a few times a week. I used the Precor machine at the gym and noticed that my back did not hurt. I could walk for over a mile and not have pain. Due to my age and many other health related issues I stopped going to the gym prior to the Ontario government closing them down. To make the story short, after a while my back hurt all the time. I could not walk to the back of the apartment building without sever pain.So I ended up buying the Nitrofit Limber Pro. I am so glad that I did.I thought that the Lower Back & Upper Back exercises would be my favourites. They are great but I found the Hamstrings exercise to the one the made my body the happiest. After only 1 week my back does not hurt as much. It is easier to put on my socks. When I do have pain, the Limber Pro is there to take it away.One surprise was the Calves exercises. I didn't realise how much I needed it or how good it would feel! It may just be coincidence but I no longer wake up with leg pain when I start to wake up.I have very happy with the Limber Pro. I just wish that I had purchased it much earlier.It was delivered much more quickly than Amazon's expected delivery date. It was relatively easy to assemble (there are a lot of parts). There is a video on YouTube that takes you through the assembly process.The Front Post Cover was broken during shipment. I contacted Medvibe. They responded within a short time requesting a delivery address for the part. I received the tracking number for the part the same day. The support department have been friendly and helpful.

Fantastic machine! I’ve suffered with back pain for years. I never knew until recently that this type of stretching equipment existed. It is a God send for anyone with back pain and poor flexibility. I have read all the reviews and watched some side by side videos on YouTube. This unit, the Nitrofit, is the best option in my opinion. I cannot see the more expensive units doing the job any better. In one online video there was a three way comparison, it showed that the Nitrofit is more stable than the most expensive unit of the three and had a better handle bar mount design than the other model.The only negative to this unit in any review I had read was the lack of extra padding on the front edge of the knee pad. The area where your knees rest has plenty of padding but when you are doing some of the leg stretches and the bottom of your leg is on the leading edge of the knee pad it can get a little painful. In my case I couldn’t tell if the pain was the lack of extra padding or if it was my poor flexibility…probably both!But I have solved the only negative to this machine and it is an easy and inexpensive fix. I added a replacement foam roller for another piece of equipment. All I did was slice it down the center on one side and it fit right over the edge of the knee pad. I ordered a 16 inch and it was the perfect length. I did notice that the foam roller would stay on during other exercises but it moved slightly. I trimmed a little more foam off the inside and used 2-inch-wide X 15 inch of Velcro to hold the roller in place. Since the Velcro is on the bottom of the knee pad you can take the roller off if you find it a distraction doing other exercises but I find it feels fine keeping it in place for all the exercises. It also gives you a little extra ‘lift’ and comfort when doing the Quadriceps. Check out the photos, here is a link to the same type of foam roller I used, these are sold in pairs so if you screw one up you will have a spare.https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B002URFCYU?pf_rd_p=faa1d3e1-fadf-4279-ac2d-3096206e4690&pf_rd_r=9RDHJJ760XQWEAMA5WJTWith the calf stretch ramp, the overall stability, the quality, the exercise display, and with the one little modification the Nitrofit is the perfect stretching machine. My back feels better after a week with the Nitrofit than it has in years.

I purchased the Nitrofit Limber Pro Stretch machine a month ago to assist with the bursitis in my hip and to have something for my husband to stretch his back as he does a great deal of heavy lifting at work. I could not get a decent stretch using the floor exercises recommended by the Chiropractor. I saw a similar machine in the office and watched other patients use it. It looked like it would be a great help in getting the stretch I needed for my hip. The employees advised the machine was no longer available to purchase. Well that particular machine may not have been, but they have others out there. Thank goodness.This machine is awesome. My husband and I use it every morning after our morning exercises. I get the deep stretch needed to keep the pain out of my hip. My husband says his back has never felt better. The other stretches on the machine are also great. I will use it in the morning and again before going to bed. It has help tremendously with my pain.I did a great deal of research on the Nitrofit ($449.00) and Precor 240i Commercial Series ($728.00) stretch trainers before purchasing one. There were two complaints for the Nitrofit on Amazon reviews- 1. felt it was made of cheap steel (1) (I personally did not feel this was true) and 2. not enough padding around the foot board (explained below).I also found an exercise/trainer web page that evaluated both machines. For use, durability, and cost the Nitrofit won hands down. There was not a down side by this website. The pluses were it had an adjustable base (for height) and had the calf stretcher which are not available on the Precor. The Precor 240i review was very general in description and did not provide anything to sway me in spending a great deal more money.Recommendations for the manufacturer1. Send larger paper prints of the exercises with the machine or a link to access printable copies. I was able to go to the Nitrofit website to see larger pictures, this was very helpful but I could not print them, I had to take pictures of each exercise with my cell phone.2. Use a different color than grey on the placard for the start position as it is not real visible. This made it difficult to figure out a couple of the exercises.3. Figure out a way to put more padding on the edge of the foot board as when you do the hamstring stretch it can be somewhat painful on the under part of the leg. I place a folded up shirt under my leg and this alleviates the problem.Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase and would purchase this again. It would have been nice to have actually tried the Precor 240i to have a true comparison of movement and durability but I am not sure with the large cost difference it would have changed my mind. As stated above in the reviews I read there was nothing that stood out making the commercial product better.
