Titan Fitness Lat Tower Review: Their Best Yet?!

Def want to see the plate loaded version

[@eklimas123]

I wish he did it sooner, but no real regrets. I picked the plate loaded one up and I like it, especially for the price. But like this one (and I'm actually 6' 5") its hard to get a good stretch cause its not overly tall, but I have it working well enough and it fits in the basement, any taller, it wouldn't. So for the price, cause it fits, and cause I'm using it to build up to chins primarily it gets the job done for me.

[@alexmoore952]

@@eklimas123 how does the plate loaded one do when you’re doing low rows? Does it rock at all?

[@wmartonejr]

I have it and mostly love it. Only issues is when using bands - you have to adjust each side to be nearly perfect in tension or the loading pin will tilt and catch on the remaining weight stack. Other than that it’s the best Titan Fitness piece we own.

[@JiZzKizZ_]

Coop got a awesome personality. Dude be having me ROFL!

[@ChristhianGT]

Plate loaded. Feels great. I have 0 complaints so far month with it.

[@VillainCollector1]

Another revision is needed before I buy. I would love to see better foam and vinyl as well as the ability to remove the seat. They also need to add holes into the uprights for additional functionality or add a trolley setup to use the pulley at different angles. I also recommend a 200lb version with weight horns for additional to keep the cost down. $1500 is steep for what you are currently getting

[@reyestrada3625]

Ordered mine in Feb 2021 and got it mid Apr 2 weeks ahead of estimated delivery date. Looks and feels awesome. Other than the pads feeling cheap, a bolt hole was missed on one of the top pieces. Drilled it and went on.

[@Slazbob]

I just got mine. They now have a little protective metal piece on the seat to protect the pad. And also…the wobble Coop showed was because he didn’t twist the knob on the pin hole select.

[@garymullins7869]

Mine came just a week ago in the wooden crate. It was COMPLETELY DESTROYED!!! I don’t know why they even bother trying to package their products. I was missing pieces and the delivery guy I’ve known for years said it came to them this way

[@johnnelwhite]

How did your situation turn out I'm placing my order this month.

[@GhostOfTheMtns]

The cable pass is a nice little upgrade 😯 I’d love to see the seat be able to just flip up and be able to lock in that position to avoid the tear on it.

[@dennissmithjr.5370]

Het Coop, I have been a fan of Titan Fitness for a few years now, have bought a few things you can say from them, this has been on my wish list since I first saw it on the website. I was glad to see your review of it, even though you pointed out some of the drawbacks I still plan on buying it in the future.

[@brandonvollers6927]

Got mines in September 2020 (per your previous videos recommending it)I love this piece? Side note, when you gonna start your garage gym tours again?! Always enjoy seeing what other peeps are working with! Keep it up COOP!!

[@Dom-yx6yx]

I’m 6’ 3” and generally proportionate. The machine is very comfortable. My knees fit under the rollers perfectly at the highest adjustment level and I can can fully extend over my head to get that lat stretch.

[@gilkennedy7638]

I'm 6'3" also, I was concern after looking the video that I would not be able to get a full stretch, can you stretch as much as a machine we found in public gym ?

[@AlbertFischer]

My Titan plate loaded seated row station was delivered Saturday and I love it. I still love my old Keys Fitness lat tower though(probably about $500 twenty years ago.) The Keys fitness version has a flip up seat so that the seat doesn't get wrecked when you use the low pulley for exercises like curls or URR.

[@someoneelse4740]

Plate loaded just makes more sense to me in home gyms. It’s the same reason I have loadable Olympic dumbbells. I have the weight, now I can use it for everything cheap.

[@Jake4G]

I'm 99% sure this is the route I will go too, loadable olympic dumbbells. I just can't decide on the brand yet. What did you end up going with?

[@NewSuperMarioBros9]

@@Jake4G i just bought a rogue db15 set and i think they even have db10s on the boneyard rn for 100 bucks which is a killer deal. Im super happy with them. If you are on a budget get the titan fitness set though, i has those for quite a while and there was nothing wrong with them i just gave them to a friend who was getting into fitness as an excuse to upgrade 😂 Both are fantastic options at 2 dif price points

[@andrewcramer7214]

@@Jake4G I'd go core home fitness dumbbells, or powerblocks if 50lbs isn't enough. Unless you want to spend more money on small plates and more time in the gym messing around with weights than actually working out. I have oly dumbbells and hate them with a passion, it was peak lockdown pricing and I got it with some small cap plates. Im saving for core home fitness dumbbells and then the loadables will sit in corner waiting for farmers carries or something.

[@TheJdangle]

selector machines are good when you are training at home with your wife

[@MBenson]

I'll never understand why lat tower makers don't engineer it to accept a leg extension attachment option. It would be so simple to add.

[@laplantamichay]

i never understood why there aren't attachments like that. would be so much cheaper for home gym owners. get one cable machine and use the attachments instead of either missing out on the isolation movements or having to buy the machines

[@AntiGravityResearch2022]

Or a drop down platform that extends the low row for belt squats

[@bmgymreviews2131]

They should make them customizable, so you can change the color. Although that would probably take a year to make with all the backorders.

[@stitchthisditchthat259]

Spray paint is cheap

[@gaurilla]

Excellent Coop, I was waiting for your take on this. Thanks!

[@Matt34677]

Coop I know you touched on it but I was really hoping you'd actually demo curls with a D handle and/or a curl bar. That's the only thing holding me back is not knowing how curls would be. Do you mind showing it done on the plate loaded next vid?

[@seanbaran5695]

I have the plate loaded one from Titan. Works great!!! Obviously not as quick at changing weight but can’t be beat for the price. Excellent value for the person on a budget that doesn’t want to pay extra for a weight stack.

[@joecowan3719]

I know people have written off Titan, but they def have stepped their game up lately...Nemesis review next?

[@johnnysandoval5238]

haha i am on the edge of my seat. waiting for The Nemesis review!

[@meisdetermined]

Even tho I don’t have a Nemesis I would think the Titan or Rep functional trainer would be a better value for the money spent. You’d have two stacks independent of each other so you can work each side without the possibility of your stronger side assisting your weak side. I see the nemesis as overpriced and not worth that amount of money. Maybe at $1500 but not $2k

[@joecowan3719]

@@meisdetermined You are right on the 2k, but prices are going up. I bet if they rolled that out in 2019 it would be more in line with our expectations of closer to 1k-1.2k ballpark.

[@BrownBarbellClub]

Price is okay! Due to steel prices, prices of most of the equipment's has gone up. Wish people had listened to Garage Gym Owners before pandemic. I think I have seen this unit for 900 USD at some time. *Alan still won't approve Titan Fitness btw*

[@girlsdrinkfeck]

Amazing how people would pay for a dedicatd pull down machine when a power rack all in one is like 600 with 100kg stack which is enough for most home users

[@BrownBarbellClub]

@@girlsdrinkfeck it’s just personal preference. For (dedicated) garage gym space, it is okay. But most of garage gym owners are minimalist like me 😃

[@brandontorbert3209]

I've had this lat tower for a year now. He's right. For the money it's golden. I would definitely buy it again if I had it to do over.

[@48Boxer]

I have one and love it. Agree it's probably the best thing that titan has come out with so far. It has me contemplating the new nemesis functional trainer, but don't really have the room right now. I agree on the height. My problem is I have to make sure to add or subtract chain links so I don't clang it off the top especially if doing a tricep pushdown.

[@steeeve4607]

Wish it was available for purchase. Its not even available to backorder like some of their other out of stock products

[@proby92]

Yeah I would like a quick review on the plate loaded lat tower

[@leedurbin1120]

Dude a thousand bucks for that would be a steal, but 1500 still seems like a good value and makes sense with rising cost and the current market. Definitely interested in what you have to say about the plate loaded version though since it's a third the price.

[@BasementBrandon]

I agree, this is by far one of the best pieces that Titan makes (along with the SSB V2). However, that's not saying much since most of their stuff is trash :)

Not sure that's really the case anymore, their QC has gotten impressive this past year. The belt squat rocks, the Titan Mono's are Rogue quality, the Titan Seal Row bar is an incredible value, and the Rickshaw rocks. I've also seen racks that have excellent finish and welds. You are thinking of the Titan of old, this is a new Titan.

[@brevenlangley5726]

Coop! Need a review of the rogue slinger with the weight stack option!!

I have the plate load version on the way. That seat attachment at almost $300 is brutal.

[@brevenlangley5726]

@@albe23 I plan on getting the slinger solo pulley attachment so I can move it to any height, The main reason is so that I can do cable curls and some cable core and chest exercises. I don’t only want a cable for lat pulls and tricep push downs. Having the ability to move the cable to any point on the post is such a bonus.

[@albe23]

@@brevenlangley5726 that was something I was thinking about doing as well.

[@sirsquatch2347]

I have this Lat Pulldown. The only thing I don't like... It's not made for someone that is taller with long arms like me. I think if I could take 5 plates off and get a longer cable, I could get a full stretch and not bottom out at the top. But, for the money and quality, It's awesome. (Also, the bottom cable will come of the pulleys sometimes)

[@MM-ss9mp]

Would adding a few carabiners help extend cable?

[@sirsquatch2347]

@@MM-ss9mp No, I tried that. I couldn't get a full stretch. I may take off 5 plates, and have National Gym Supply make a longer cable. It's a great machine.

Did you end up doing this? If so, where did you get the new cable?

I think that's exactly what that nylon roller below the seat is meant for, trouble is they went with a cheaply sourced seat that doesn't fit properly to allow for the cable to pass by unimpeded.

Just want to throw this out there. I have bought several products from Rogue and Titan this past year. My Titan products don't have the same quality finish as Rogue but I have had more quality control issue with Rogue products. Rogue boxes arrived opened and damage, chips in the powder coat, bumper plate arrived with defects. No shipping or finish issues with titan.

[@AmmonHartwell]

[@edwardkern1091]

Well again purchased with Coop review and this Titan Lat is very good but....- Coop's comments good/accurate on this one but..... I will say there is a lot of sway (both side to side and forward) on the top horizontal stanchion when doing maybe 160 ish pull downs, almost nervous to go above that amount of weight. Bolt down would not really help that with support only with back vertical 11 gage and the top horizontal support. Just seems to bend sway a quite bit when going heavier..

[@rdl1384]

Great review Cooppp; thank you! I own the Rogue RML-3WC and was thinking of getting the full Monster Lite Slinger since it’s supposed to be compatible to this foldable Monster Lite rack I got; HOWEVER, after calling Rogue I found out they ‘can’t’ recommend installing this system into my foldable rack. I am confused and don’t know whether to get it or not. I can’t find any other KZbinrs like yourself willing to explain to me if they think this would work or not. Mind lending a brother a hand here in answering this huge doubt I got? Thanks a lot always for all your amazing reviews man! Almost everything I own is thanks to your reviews.
