Just got my Centr SF3 from Costco! Took about 5 hours to assemble. I went slow, but it was pretty easy to do. From what I can see, it's exactly the same as the Inspire SF3, but all the red painted parts are a grayish color on the Centr version.

Awesome man congratulations it’s definitely the best purchase I’ve ever made for the Price and I have a blast working out on it in my garage. You should make some videos of it because it would be an update of what Costco has to offer. Once again, I really appreciate you sharing and letting others know how it goes. Merry Christmas. Happy new year.

Thank you John because of you I purchased SF3

Thanks John. I just bought the SF3. At this point Inspire fitness should give you a stock :-)

Awesome! Thank you for watching! I’m just glad I could help people make an informed decision on a big purchase “site unseen”. Let me know how it works out for you!

Still loving the FTX and use it almost every day. But now, seeing that 2k deal at Costco, I might be tempted to go SF3 if I had to buy all over again!

I know man! Great to hear from you! Hope all is well.

I have the weight extension pin and I use it on a Hoist gym. It holds two Olympic plates. It works good but with two plates the plates want to slide off. It isn’t perfect but you can certainly add weight.

Thank you so much for your feedback. I really appreciate it. I know a lot of viewers. Will I really appreciate your perspective on those weight extension pins. Thank you again for watching. Have a happy new year.

Just got the Centr2 for $1,199. Couldn’t beat the price. Only caveat is trying to lug the parts down to the basement. Not sure what each side weighs but for one person it’s a challenge.

That’s a great deal. The centr 2 is a great machine. Hope you enjoy some great work outs on it. Thank you for watching!

SF3 ($2K) or FTX ($1.4K)? Been going back and forth now that the pricing isn’t so far off. I’m 5’7” so I would assume both machines wouldn’t be an issue height wise. 😂

Great question- do you use smith machines at all? Is money an issue? They are both great, I have SF3 because of smith machine. The FTX has deals where I’ve seen it at about 300$ off. I’m 5’10” and it’s super comfortable for me. Thanks for the comments and watching!

SF5 states it is 11 gauge and sf 3 is 14 gauge steel? Any thoughts?

Great question. So, looking deeper the SF5 and SF3 both weigh 631 lbs fully assembled. The dimensions are identical. It doesn’t seem to me there are any structural differences between the SF5 and SF3. I doubt there is a difference in the gauges. I’ll send an email to the company and see what they say. Thank you for watching.

This is direct from Hector at Inspire: Hector Morales (Inspire Fitness US) Dec 26, 2023, 12:02 MST Hello John, I believe they have different steel gauges. The SF5 supports more weight so it has a thicker frame.

@@SoarAndMore Thanks John. If that’s true I think that is a game changer. But based on the final weight dimensions and your demo of counterbalanced pulley system appears that Inspire might be mistaken with their product line up. Or they are planning to discontinue the SF3 line up( like you mentioned).

I think you are right. The company seems to be changing rapidly with the Chris Hemsworth Centr branding. I have been very happy with my SF3 though. Hope all I the info helps and Happy New Year!
