Shipping calculator
Delivery options
Your item’s shipping method and price are confirmed in the shipping calculator and at checkout. Here is what each delivery path means.
Items weighing 149 lb or less ship by ground parcel rather than freight.
Your equipment is palletized and protected. The freight carrier schedules delivery, then uses a liftgate to lower it to your curb or driveway. Moving it inside and unpacking it are up to you.
When selected and available for your address, the delivery team brings the equipment into the room, assembles and tests it, then removes the packaging.
For commercial builds and multi-pallet orders, a dedicated trailer keeps the full order together in one delivery. We confirm the unloading plan before the truck ships.
Change your mind within 30 days of delivery and you can return the machine or exchange it for a different size, color or configuration.
Return shipping is the customer's responsibility and a 15% restocking fee applies to preference returns and exchanges. Freight items must go back packaged to the same standard they arrived in. We will tell you exactly what that means before anything is collected.
Anything that arrives damaged or fails under warranty is handled separately and carries no restocking fee. Full terms are in our Returns, Exchange & Refund Policy.
Coverage and accessories have to go on the same booking as the machine. Add them here and they travel together.
Rebuilt in our Jarrell, TX shop
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.
Assessed frame to console, then taken apart and checked part by part. Nothing gets judged from the outside.
Belts, cables, bearings, bushings, grips and safety-critical hardware are replaced as standard, whether or not they still have life in them.
Electronics bench-tested, frames and welds checked, panels refinished, then reassembled to the manufacturer's specification.
A full operational cycle under load before it ships. Anything that fails the final check goes back through service, not onto a truck.

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.

Specifications
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.
