What remanufactured means here

Every machine we sell as remanufactured goes through the same process, whatever the brand or the price. Not a wipe-down and a price tag.

  1. Inspected and stripped down

    Inspected and stripped down

    Assessed frame to console, then taken apart and checked part by part. Nothing gets judged from the outside.

  2. Wear parts replaced

    Wear parts replaced

    Belts, cables, bearings, bushings, grips and safety-critical hardware are replaced as standard, whether or not they still have life in them.

  3. Refinished and rebuilt to spec

    Refinished and rebuilt to spec

    Electronics bench-tested, frames and welds checked, panels refinished, then reassembled to the manufacturer's specification.

  4. Tested under load

    Tested under load

    A full operational cycle under load before it ships. Anything that fails the final check goes back through service, not onto a truck.

Product details

Commercial-grade equipment, inspected and supported by warranty.

The Precor Discovery Series Smith Machine delivers linear bearing guided bar travel, angled bar path, counterbalanced bar system, multiple lockout points, and heavy-duty Precor Discovery commercial construction - 395 lb machine, weight plates not included, 56"×84" footprint. The Smith machine is the barbell training platform that removes the spotter requirement from heavy compound pressing and squatting - the guided bar path constrains the bar to a fixed vertical (or angled) track, so the user can bail out safely at any point in the lift by rotating the bar onto the nearest safety hook without a second person present. The Precor Discovery Smith Machine uses an angled bar path rather than a strictly vertical one: an angled path tilts the bar trajectory to follow the natural arc of a barbell squat or press more closely than a purely vertical path does, which is the biomechanical criticism of vertical Smith machines - they force the wrist, elbow, and shoulder into a mechanically compromised plane during the bench press, and force the torso into a more upright position during the squat than the lifter's anatomy may naturally favor. An angled path accommodates more of the natural range of motion variation between users. Linear bearings are the mechanical specification that determines how smooth and quiet the bar travel feels: linear bearings use rolling contact (ball or roller elements) between the bar sleeve and the vertical column, producing very low friction and consistent feel throughout the travel range. Counterbalanced bar system reduces the effective bar weight below a standard Olympic bar, making the machine accessible for users who cannot yet press or squat the full bar weight unloaded.

Multiple lockout points for safety and range of motion control at any lift stage. 395 lb Precor Discovery commercial Smith machine, 56"×84" footprint. Weight plates not included. Remanufactured.

Key features

Angled Bar Path · Linear Bearings - Natural Arc, Smooth Travel
Angled bar path follows the natural trajectory of barbell squats and presses more closely than a vertical path - reducing the biomechanical compromise that strictly vertical Smith machines impose on wrist, elbow, and shoulder alignment during pressing, and on torso angle during squatting. Linear bearings provide rolling-contact bar travel with low friction and consistent feel throughout the full travel range.
Counterbalanced Bar · Multiple Lockouts · Solo Lifting Safety
Counterbalanced bar reduces effective starting weight below a standard Olympic bar - accessible for users who cannot yet press or squat a full bar load. Multiple lockout points allow the bar to be secured at any height in the travel range, enabling partial range of motion training, rack pulls, and safe bailouts at any point in the lift without a spotter. The fundamental safety advantage of the Smith machine for solo heavy lifting.

1. What are the exact dimensions and footprint of this Smith machine?

This machine measures 56 inches front to back, 84 inches wide, and 90 inches high, with a footprint of 33 square feet. Allowing extra space around the unit is suggested for safe use and loading.

2. How is the bar path designed on this Smith machine, and why does it matter?

It features an angled bar path, which follows the natural arc of squats and presses more closely than a vertical path. This design supports better joint alignment and a more natural lifting motion.

3. Does this Smith machine include weight plates or a weight stack?

No, weight plates are not included and there is no built-in weight stack. You will need to supply your own Olympic weight plates for loading.

4. What condition can I expect with a remanufactured machine like this?

Remanufactured machines are fully disassembled, cleaned, repaired, and tested in our Texas shop, with worn parts replaced. Cosmetic marks from prior use may remain, but the machine is certified for commercial use.

5. What muscles and exercises does this Smith machine support?

It is designed for full-body training, supporting exercises such as squats, bench presses, shoulder presses, lunges, upright rows, deadlifts, calf raises, and hip thrusts.

6. What delivery and assembly options are available for this machine?

You can choose Driveway Freight Delivery, where you move and assemble it, or Inside Delivery & Assembly, where our crew brings it in, assembles it, and removes packaging. Stairs require a separate quote.
