Valor Fitness CB 12 Lat Pull Down Review

[@LEO-qw6lz]

Great product, I've had had mine for about two years and I'm satisfied with this product....the only thing I had to replace was the upper cable...which was under warranty for 2yrs. In my opinion This is a solid product that gets the job. done...Thanks for the review.

[@fogt1430]

Thanks for watching, hoping to do more reviews soon,

[@anthonythompson5817]

Appreciate the review, only thing to add is to need to see it in use. Most reviews of this don’t show someone using it really loaded up with weight.

[@Macho_Man_Randy_Savage]

the 80" height, is that to the top of beam or to the top of pulleys?

[@Alan-zo2jr]

Where did you get the Olympic plate attachment because it only fits 1 inch plates?

[@fogt1430]

I got them from Amazon.

[@wolfsden3812]

Soooo what is a good lat machine?

[@Tain950]

I ended up going with the XMark Lat pulldown instead. I was originally looking at the Valor pulldown but it just looked to cheap. I’m glad I went with XMark because that thing is really thick and as solid as a tank.

[@fogt1430]

What did it cost?

[@Tain950]

@@fogt1430 I paid $599.00 just 2 months ago. But I just checked to see the current price and now it’s gone up to $720.00 free shipping. Gym equipment seems to be going up in price really fast these days

[@futbol1972]

I had mine for a year and its been working great:). Now I want to get a compact functional trainer but they are expensive so I been looking at the cheap v3 from titan

[@wkevin22]

I like mine. Maybe if I was younger I would want better, but it’s real nice for what I need

[@meloncroissant145]

Hey there! Was wondering if you could do a “1 year later” updated review with this product? I’m definitely curious about how long the plastic pulleys lasted before you switched them out with the metal versions, as well as any additional thoughts you may have since getting it (ie did you need to replace the cables at any point, any additional modifications, etc) Really appreciate your review and demo vid on this! I actually ordered myself one after seeing your content and would like to implement any and all notes you may have! :) Thanks in advance and congrats on your weight loss journey!

How tall is this?

80" tall

[@Jzs20]

Decent review. I'm buying tomorrow

[@TonyAndico]

Thank you for your review. I bought this 3-4 years ago. I use this all the time. I love the storage plate holder in the front. You should never move it with weight on it because the metal structure could bend so just a warning. I recently contacted Valor Fitness and I had to buy 2 cables as mine was ripping. It was past the warranty stage. I wanted to ask you where you bought the BLACK METAL PULLEYS?? I saw your comment on someone else's question about where you bought the pully's but not sure what item it is on TSC website. Can you provide a link on the exact pulley you purchased? I wanted to change out these plastic pulley's because I know they are end of life soon. Thanks for your review.

[@fogt1430]

I bought them in store. I just matched them up

[@bossqueen100]

do you have to put equal weight on each side for the pulley to pull smoothly ? unless mines was set up wrong i noticed when i dont put weight on equal weight on each side it kinda drags and dont run smoothly

[@fogt1430]

no i have not had that problem

[@martez752]

Hey, I just bought one of these machines and I'm having that same problem far as the bottom small ball is jumping of track. Did you ever switch the cables around?

[@fogt1430]

yes it fixed the problem for me.

[@martez752]

@@fogt1430 thanks! My cable has gotta so bad, I had to get in touch with the company and they sent me another cable. The instructions says the small ball goes on the bottom and the big end goes in the middle. I guess they meant the other way around. Thanks

[@frankyavocados5794]

where did you get yours? its removed from amazon and the walmart one is out of stock

[@fogt1430]

I got in from amazon. They show available on valorfitness.com 328.68

[@frankyavocados5794]

was it cheaper on amazon?

[@paragonknight3307]

@@frankyavocados5794 still not on Amazon, and yes at one point and time is was less expensive.

[@joegould7459]

Do you have any recommendations for machines similar to this that are similar price and better built? And what attachments does it come with so I know what ones to get for it? Thanks

[@fogt1430]

It comes with the full length lat pulldown bar and the small bar to do curls or tricep extensions. I feel like the thickness of the metal is ok it is just the design of how it bolts together. From what I have seen to go better cost closer to $500. I havent seen much in between. If you are patient you could probably get a good quality used machine. Thanks for watching.

[@joegould7459]

@@fogt1430 thanks for the info. So should I try to reinforce the metal some how or replace some of the parts? Is It to point where it would fall over if pulled on aggressively? Thanks birthday coming up and talked to my parents and they are good with this price range so I'll stick with this and hope it works well.

[@fogt1430]

@@joegould7459 I would not worry about it falling over. The sway does not effect they function or safety it is just something that annoys me. I think you will be happy with it especially if you are starting out. I would not worry about reinforcing it until you get it and see how it performs because again it is not at risk of falling. I would keep a eye out for used weights for it. If you are patient you could get weight for under 50 cents a Lb, standard or olympic will work.

[@wakeupinspired1683]

What is the max weight you can put on this machine

[@Piter1111111111]

150kg

[@kadarasiram650]

Who this booking please

[@felipebarran1350]

How is it for tricep extensions???

[@fogt1430]

It is good. it has enough travel for me.

[@paragonknight3307]

How much weight have you personally used on this machine? I can't find anyone actually using this seriously. Just people putting 10Ibs on each side and pulling it. Also I noticed you don't store weights on the lower plate holders, would adding weights help with the over all stability?

[@fogt1430]

Thanks for watching. I dont think the extra weight would help. I do store it, but with only one on each side i just lay them on the ground instead of putting them back. I have used 150 lbs on it. Thats a good question because you are right that is always what you see. Maybe I should do a video with some real weight on it.

[@paragonknight3307]

@@fogt1430 Thank you for Responding! I was looking at this model cause Im using a old Weider home gym and have maxed out the weight squares and am looking for something that I can add my own weight to and be more precise. Besides I don't like the butterfly arms on my Wieder and they just get in the way.

[@fogt1430]

@@paragonknight3307 I am not a big fan of the Butterfly on these machine either. I did a quick video with 220 lbs on it. Hope it helps. Check it out. kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5mrn5KFd9GbqLs

[@kucci8157]

I have a similar machine, made by amstaff (its literally the same, i wouldn't be surprised if they're made in the same factory) I have put 225 on it with no issues. I find you dont really need more than that unless you're a pro body builder. I've been able to make some great gains on this machine. For the price, its well worth it. Even if you only get 3 years out of it.

[@paragonknight3307]

@@kucci8157 thanks dude

[@braedonsimpson4833]

I cannot find this machine for sale anywhere, anybody know why? Where can I find one?

[@real.g]

They're all sold out from everywhere I've seen due to covid-19. I got lucky and found mine off someone on Facebook

[@fogt1430]

I contacted Valor and asked about future availability. Hopefully they will get back with me tomorrow and I will let you know what they say.

Great job brother, thank you

[@fogt1430]

Thanks for watching

[@lalalamooone]

can you actually make gains on a machine like this? does the weight feel weird in anyway?

[@fogt1430]

Have you ever used a lat pull down machine? Yes you can make gains.

[@real.g]

I have the cb-12. Im 6 foot and i don't get a full ROM while doing close-grip while using handles. The weight handles differently than compared to using an actual lat pulldown machine. But for the price you pay. Seems fair
