Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.

The Marcy MD9010 Smith Cage Machine is the number one pick in our best Smith machines guide. It is a home gym system that combines a Smith machine, a cable pulley system, and an adjustable weight bench. The listing shows a 4.5-star rating from 1,110 reviews and a price of £1,299.00.

The standout finding in this listing is the load numbers. The bullet points claim a 136 kg Smith press and a 272 kg adjustable weight bench. But the 'Tension Supported' spec says 300 pounds, which is about 136 kg. Meanwhile, the machine itself weighs 169 kg. So the bench capacity is double the Smith press capacity, and the 'Tension Supported' figure matches the lower number. The model number is listed as MD-9010, though the item type name says MD-9010G. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing, not from our own testing.
