A Review of The Axis-Plate Whole Body Vibration Machine Exercise Platform

When you first unbox this popular vibration plate machine, you are presented with a machine that is almost already put together for you. All you need to do is just finish screwing in a few parts that are previously set for you. Then you plug in the machine and you’re ready to go. If you’ve ever put together other exercise equipment, you know what a struggle it can be. Best of all, the tools you need are included in the actual price of the equipment. That means there is nothing more that you need beyond the box.

The machine is also easy to maneuver and move from room to room as needed. You just tilt it forward on its wheels and then you can take it wherever you need to go. This makes it easier for those who aren’t as strong to move. When set in place though, the base does have a comfortable amount of weight, which helps to hold it in place. It is made from a mixture of aluminum and plastic parts. That does mean that you need to be somewhat careful when you are moving it from room to room.

As far as exercising goes, the book includes 36 unique positions you can be in to have different results from the machine. This allows you to exercise the entire body and to maximize the benefit of the vibrations in your body. There are also 50 speed settings and three programmed exercises for you to choose from. These settings allow you to determine the speed of the vibration you need for results. This is perhaps the best way for you to get the toned body you’re looking for, without having to put a lot of physical effort into the process.

Let’s look at the pros and cons.

Pros

Easy to use

Affordable

Adjustable settings that allow you to customize your workout

Cons

Machine can be heavy to move

The weight limit is 265 pounds so it limits some users

As for real users, the majority of those who have used the machine remain positive about it. They claim it is easy to use, affordable, and they feel like they are having an actual workout. In fact, 68% of the reviews on Amazon are 5 star reviews for the product. That is out of 71 customer reviews.

Knowing all that it can do, is it the right choice for you? It can be, but there are a few things to consider. The first is that the weight maximum is 265 pounds. If you weigh more than that, there’s a chance you run the risk of injury to yourself or damaging the machine. Additionally, you should check with your doctor before you begin using any exercise equipment. Only your physician will know your actual health profile and can determine if the Axis-Plate Whole Body Vibration Machine is right for you.

Overall, this is one machine you definitely will want to consider when you’re working out. It offers an oversize base at 21” x 14.5” that makes it comfortable to step on when you’re exercising. The base is also non slip and will protect your floors when properly placed. The padded handles make holding on during your workout easier and overall, you’ll find that the machine does give you a decent workout each time that you use it. Ultimately, the machine does work within what it claims to accomplish. That is one reason why you will want to consider adding it to your home gym for vibration workouts.

Just note that while the MSRP is $719.97, you can find it for hundreds of dollars less if you look for a discount.
