The best all in one home gym machine for small spaces is the Motion Space G1 Smart Home Gym, a motorised cable trainer with up to 264 lb of digital resistance in an 85.8 x 54.7 in footprint and a 21.5-inch touchscreen. If you would rather share a traditional stack system with the rest of the household, the HULKFIT All-in-One Home Gym Machine with 160 lb Weight Stack takes the runner-up spot on price and family use.

## How the shortlist was built

I started with the all-in-one category on Amazon and screened listings down to five that publish enough hard data to compare. The floor for inclusion was simple: a resistance figure, a footprint or component dimension, and an accessory list. Anything that hid the numbers behind marketing copy came out.

That cut a lot of noise. What survived falls into three quite different shapes:

- A motorised digital trainer with a screen (Motion Space G1).
- Two traditional selectorized stack systems (HULKFIT, JELENS).
- A pair of Smith-machine hybrids that pair a barbell with a cable tower (JELENS again, Major Fitness Drone2).

The FJÖR XT Trainer sits slightly apart. Its listing publishes very little beyond the concentric-resistance claim and an 85-exercise figure, so it earns its spot as the cheapest of the five rather than on published specifications.

The order below is not price order. It is the order in which these machines answer a specific buyer profile. Read the profiles, not the ranks.

## What the footprint numbers actually mean at home

The keyword promises "small spaces". Two of these picks publish a full footprint, one publishes a bar length, and two do not publish a footprint at all. That is the honest state of the data, and you should treat it as a shopping constraint rather than a promise these machines all meet.

Here is what the specifications actually say:

1. Motion Space G1: 85.8 x 54.7 x 35.7 in. Under 8 ft long, about 4.5 ft wide.
2. HULKFIT: 80 x 80 x 43 in. Square footprint, over 6.5 ft in every horizontal direction.
3. Major Fitness Drone2: the listing publishes 81.5 x 4.92 x 8.66 in, which reads as the barbell dimension rather than a rack footprint. Plan for a full Smith cage.
4. FJÖR XT Trainer and JELENS HM01: no footprint published.

The G1 is the only pick here whose published dimensions genuinely read as apartment-friendly, and even that assumes an eight-foot clearance in length. If floor area is your hardest constraint, measure your spot in inches before you commit, and treat any listing without a footprint as a machine you cannot verify will fit.

Ceiling matters too. Every one of these machines includes a pull-up bar or an overhead pulley in its accessory list, and none of the listings state a total assembled height. A basement with seven-foot joists is a different room from a garage with a nine-foot ceiling.

## Cable stack, digital motor or Smith machine?

Most guides to this category compare total exercise counts. That is not what decides it. The deciding factor is resistance type, because it changes what you can train, how loud the machine is, and how much floor space it needs.

**Digital cable, motor-driven.** The Motion Space G1 and, in a lighter form, the FJÖR XT Trainer. Resistance comes from a motor rather than a plate stack, which means no clanging weights, quieter operation, and a much smaller machine for the same peak load. The G1's listing claims 264 lb of resistance from dual motors. The trade-off is a reliance on electronics, and, in the G1's case, a touchscreen you cannot ignore.

**Selectorized stack.** The HULKFIT 160 lb stack and the JELENS HM01 150 lb stack. Old-school, mechanical, no software. You pull a pin, you lift the weight. These are the picks a family can share without a login. The trade-off is size: the HULKFIT's 80 x 80 in footprint is not small-space furniture.

**Smith machine hybrid.** The Major Fitness Drone2 pairs a Smith bar with a 1:1 cable tower and a 230 lb plate package. This is the pick for a lifter who wants to squat and bench a real bar at home. The trade-off is the biggest structural footprint here and the need to store plates.

If you cannot decide, ask which one you would use tomorrow morning. A Smith rack for someone who does not want to squat is a coat hanger.

## 1\. Motion Space G1 Smart Home Gym — Best overall

**The G1 is the pick if you want the smallest published footprint here paired with a large digital resistance figure and a full accessory kit.**

[![Motion Space G1 Smart Home Gym in black, motorised cable trainer with touchscreen — the only pick here that publishes both a compact 85.8 x 54.7 in footprint and a 264 lb resistance figure](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/411zoHe8baL._SL500_.jpg)](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FPXCFBYH?tag=proliftbags-20)

**Best for:** one lifter who wants a motorised cable trainer and a screen in a spare room **Skip it if:** you prefer real iron plates or you have a low ceiling

Within this set, the G1 is the only pick that combines a small published footprint with a heavy resistance claim. Motion Space says the dual patented motors deliver up to 264 lb, which is 20% more than what they describe as standard models. The machine weighs 275.6 lb assembled, which is heavy enough for stability but far below the 832.3 lb of the Drone2 package. The published dimensions of 85.8 x 54.7 x 35.7 in fit under an eight-foot ceiling with room for a pull-up.

The 21.5-inch touchscreen carries training plans, video classes and dual-user profiles, and the accessory bundle includes a pull-up bar, dip stand, tricep rope, long bar, ankle band, weightlifting belt and cushion. The published warranty runs 12 months, longer than the HULKFIT's 30 days and matching the JELENS and Major Fitness figures.

The trade-off is dependency. If the software or a motor fails outside the 12-month window, this is a screen and a frame, not a stack.

**Pros:**

- Smallest published footprint here at 85.8 x 54.7 in
- Motion Space claims 264 lb of dual-motor resistance
- 12-month warranty, longer than the HULKFIT figure
- Full accessory kit including pull-up bar and dip stand
- 21.5-inch touchscreen with dual-user profiles

**Cons:**

- Premium price position in this set
- Motorised resistance depends on electronics staying working
- No physical plates for lifters who want real iron
- Sales rank is the slowest of the five here

## 2\. HULKFIT All-in-One Home Gym Machine with 160 lb Weight Stack — Best for families

**HULKFIT is the pick if you want a shared, no-software stack machine and can spare an 80 x 80 in square of floor.**

[![HULKFIT all-in-one home gym in black with a 160 lb selectorized weight stack — the family-friendly stack pick that trades footprint for shared simplicity](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41iBONQP4WL._SL500_.jpg)](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H8NRFYMQ?tag=proliftbags-20)

**Best for:** two or three people sharing a garage gym on a stack system **Skip it if:** you need a longer warranty than 30 days

The HULKFIT is the one buyers choose most often in this set, and it earns that on straightforward mechanics. A 160 lb selectorized stack, 15 steel-shaft pulleys with nylon-coated cables per the listing, and a chest fly, lat pulldown, leg press, curl and rowing station in one frame. There is no screen and no app, which is the point: anyone in the household can sit down and pull a pin.

The listing claims a 1000 lb capacity and commercial-grade construction. HULKFIT describes the 43 x 79 x 80 in footprint as apartment-friendly, but 80 in in every horizontal direction is a lot of floor. Plan for a garage or a basement, not a bedroom corner.

The accessory kit covers the essentials: detachable lat bar, sponge handles, ankle straps, calf blocks. Delivery arrives in five boxes, which the listing states directly.

The real weakness is the warranty. HULKFIT publishes 30 days, the shortest of the five here by a wide margin. Read the return terms before you commit.

**Pros:**

- 160 lb selectorized stack for shared, no-software use
- Sells faster than the rest of this set
- Entry-tier price for a stack machine
- Full accessory kit included in five boxes
- HULKFIT claims a 1000 lb frame capacity

**Cons:**

- 30-day warranty, shortest here
- 80 x 80 in footprint is not truly small-space
- No published unit weight in the listing
- Model field reads generically as "Home Gym Equipment"

## 3\. FJÖR XT Trainer - Compact Home Gym — Best budget pick

**The FJÖR is the pick if price is the hardest constraint and you want a light, app-guided digital trainer.**

[![FJÖR XT Trainer compact home gym in black, an app-guided digital resistance station — the cheapest pick here and the one with the least published detail](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31IqHNPtZQL._SL500_.jpg)](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GW4NRKR3?tag=proliftbags-20)

**Best for:** an apartment lifter who wants a light, app-guided cable trainer **Skip it if:** you want a published weight stack or a Smith bar

The FJÖR XT Trainer is the cheapest of the five, and its listing publishes the least. There is no footprint, no weight, no warranty figure, and no resistance ceiling. What FJÖR does publish is a claim of over 85 targeted workouts, an app for real-time guidance, and a concentric-resistance approach that focuses on the lifting phase of each movement.

Within this set, the FJÖR sits closest to the Motion Space G1 in category (digital cable trainer, no plate stack) and furthest from it in detail. If you are choosing between the two, the G1 tells you what you are getting; the FJÖR asks you to trust the listing.

The trade-off is straightforward. You get a compact digital trainer at the lowest entry price in this comparison, and you accept that the specification sheet is thin. Two sellers list it, which is more than any other pick here.

For someone testing whether a cable-only home gym suits their routine, that is a reasonable bet. For someone committing to a permanent setup, the specification gaps matter.

**Pros:**

- Cheapest of the five picks here
- App-guided workouts with progress tracking
- FJÖR claims over 85 exercises
- Two sellers list it, more than any other pick
- Digital cable format keeps the design compact

**Cons:**

- No footprint published in the listing
- No warranty figure published
- No published resistance ceiling
- Fewer stated specifications than any other pick here

## 4\. JELENS HM01 Home Gym System — Most versatile

**The JELENS combines a Smith bar with a 150 lb selectorized stack, which no other pick here does.**

[![JELENS HM01 home gym in black, a Smith machine paired with a 150 lb selectorized stack and lat pulldown — the most versatile pick and the one hybrid stack in the set](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51rSkKgEn3L._SL500_.jpg)](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0HBWB3JZG?tag=proliftbags-20)

**Best for:** a mixed household that wants a Smith bar plus a stack in one frame **Skip it if:** the listing's missing footprint is a dealbreaker

JELENS builds the HM01 around a Smith machine, a lat pulldown, a leg press and a 150 lb selectorized weight stack. Within this set of five, that combination is unique: the HULKFIT is a stack alone, the Drone2 is a Smith with plates and a cable tower but no stack, and the two digital picks have neither a bar nor a stack. If you cannot decide between a barbell and a pulley station, the HM01 is the compromise that argues for itself.

JELENS claims 2"x2" commercial-grade steel and a 2000 lb frame capacity, and describes a thickened-shaft pulley system for quiet operation. The published warranty is 1 year, matching the G1 and the Drone2.

The catch is the same one the FJÖR carries. The listing does not publish a footprint or a total weight. For a machine this ambitious in scope, that is a real gap, and it means you cannot verify it fits your space from the listing alone. Message the seller for dimensions before you buy.

**Pros:**

- Only pick here that pairs a Smith bar with a selectorized stack
- 150 lb stack with quick pin adjustment
- JELENS claims 2"x2" commercial-grade steel
- 1-year warranty, longer than the HULKFIT
- Multi-station design suits shared use

**Cons:**

- No footprint published in the listing
- No total weight published
- Mid-tier price without a full specification sheet
- Smith bar demands more ceiling than a pure stack

## 5\. Major Fitness Drone2 Premium Smith Machine — Best warranty

**The Drone2 is the pick if you want a real Smith rack with plates at home and after-sales support Major Fitness describes as lifetime.**

[![Major Fitness Drone2 Smith machine in black with aluminum pulley set and weight bar — the heaviest, most rack-focused pick in the set at 832.3 lb](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51DnRVB0+JL._SL500_.jpg)](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F93ZYGZZ?tag=proliftbags-20)

**Best for:** a serious barbell lifter who wants a Smith rack with a cable tower **Skip it if:** you want a stack, a screen or a small floor footprint

At 832.3 lb assembled, the Drone2 is by a wide margin the heaviest pick here. That mass buys stability under a loaded bar. The package listed pairs the Smith rack with an aluminum pulley set at a 1:1 ratio, a black bench and 230 lb of plates, plus a dip handle, T-bar, barbell and further accessories described as a full workout kit. The published warranty is 1 year, and Major Fitness describes lifetime after-sales support in the listing.

This is the least small-space-friendly pick in the roundup. The listing publishes an 81.5 x 4.92 x 8.66 in figure that reads as the bar rather than the rack, and a full Smith cage needs a footprint and ceiling closer to a garage than a spare bedroom. Plan the space first.

Against the G1, the Drone2 is the barbell answer to the G1's cable-and-screen answer. Both are premium-tier picks in this set, and they suit almost entirely different lifters.

**Pros:**

- Heaviest, most stable pick at 832.3 lb
- Includes a Smith bar, 230 lb of plates and a bench
- Major Fitness describes lifetime after-sales support
- 1:1 cable pulley ratio suits heavy pulldowns
- 2"x2" commercial-grade steel uprights claim

**Cons:**

- Largest and heaviest pick, poorest fit for small rooms
- No stack, so no pin-selectable resistance
- Premium price position in the set
- Bar-length dimension is not a full footprint

[Check Price on Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F93ZYGZZ?tag=proliftbags-20)

## What the listings do not tell you about assembly and ceilings

Every product listing in this roundup understates two things: assembly and ceiling clearance.

Assembly first. The HULKFIT ships in five boxes, which the listing states. None of the other four listings publish a box count or an assembly time. For a machine that weighs 275.6 lb (G1) or 832.3 lb (Drone2), that matters. Plan a half-day and a second pair of hands.

Ceiling second. Four of the five picks include a pull-up bar or an overhead pulley in the accessory list. None publish a total assembled height. A pull-up bar mounted at seven feet stops being a pull-up bar for anyone over six feet tall, and a lat pulldown with two inches of cable clearance is a compromise.

Before you buy, do three things:

- Measure the room in inches, not feet. Include ceiling and doorframes.
- Check the delivery access, because these machines do not ship in one box for most picks.
- Compare the machine's longest dimension to your longest clear wall.

That is boring, and it will save you a return.

## When each pick wins: a quick if/then map

The picks split cleanly by what you value most. Use this list, not the price ranking, to decide.

1. If your hardest constraint is floor area and you accept motorised resistance, the Motion Space G1 wins on published footprint.
2. If two or three people will share the machine and nobody wants a screen, the HULKFIT stack wins on simplicity and sells faster than the rest of this set.
3. If price is the deciding factor and you can accept a thin specification sheet, the FJÖR XT Trainer is the cheapest of the five.
4. If you want a Smith bar and a stack in the same frame, only the JELENS HM01 offers both here.
5. If you plan to squat and bench a real bar at home and space is not the limit, the Major Fitness Drone2 is the barbell answer.

The threshold worth naming is footprint. Below roughly 55 in of depth, only the G1 has published data to back the claim. Above that, the stack machines and the Smith rack become options rather than compromises.

## The verdict

If your room is genuinely small, the Motion Space G1 is the best all in one home gym machine for small spaces here. It publishes the tightest footprint in the set at 85.8 x 54.7 in, the heaviest digital resistance claim at 264 lb, and a 12-month warranty that beats the HULKFIT's 30 days. The dual-motor design keeps the frame compact in a way a plate stack cannot match, and the accessory kit is complete out of the box.

The cutoff is roughly 55 in of depth. Below it, the G1 is the only pick with data supporting the fit. Above it, the picture changes. If two or three people will share the machine and you want mechanical resistance with no software in the loop, the HULKFIT 160 lb stack is the better buy, and its faster sales rank suggests plenty of households make that call. If you want a Smith bar for real barbell training and space is not the deciding constraint, the Major Fitness Drone2 wins on stability at 832.3 lb and on the lifetime after-sales support Major Fitness describes in its listing. The FJÖR is the price answer; the JELENS is the hybrid answer.

## FAQ

### Which is the best all in one home gym machine for small spaces overall?

The best all in one home gym machine for small spaces in this comparison is the Motion Space G1\. Its 85.8 x 54.7 x 35.7 in footprint is the smallest published in the set, the dual motors are quoted at 264 lb of digital resistance, and the 12-month warranty matches or beats every other pick except the Major Fitness lifetime after-sales claim.

### Is a Smith machine like the Drone2 worth it for home use?

A Smith machine like the Drone2 is worth it if you plan to squat and bench a barbell at home and have the room for it. At 832.3 lb assembled and paired with 230 lb of plates in the listed package, the Drone2 is genuinely rack-like. If you would rather not store plates or you have a bedroom-sized space, a cable or stack system suits better.

### How does the G1's digital resistance compare to the HULKFIT stack?

The G1's digital resistance uses dual motors quoted at up to 264 lb, adjusted through the touchscreen. The HULKFIT uses a 160 lb selectorized steel stack with a pin. The G1's ceiling is higher and quieter, and its footprint is smaller. The HULKFIT is simpler, needs no software, and suits shared household use where a screen would slow things down.

### Motion Space G1 vs HULKFIT: which fits a smaller room?

Motion Space G1 vs HULKFIT on room size is not close. The G1 publishes 85.8 x 54.7 in, so under 8 ft long and about 4.5 ft wide. The HULKFIT publishes 80 x 80 in, which is over 6.5 ft square. If the room is the limit, the G1 fits where the HULKFIT will not. If the room is a garage, the HULKFIT's stack becomes an option again.

### What is the biggest mistake buyers make in this category?

The biggest mistake buyers make is picking on exercise count rather than resistance type and footprint. A machine that lists 85 exercises but no dimensions is a listing you cannot verify. Decide first whether you want a digital cable, a selectorized stack or a Smith bar, then filter by whether the listing publishes a footprint that fits your room. Skip anything that hides the numbers.

Start with the room, not the machine. Measure the longest clear wall in inches, the depth from that wall, and the ceiling height. Take those three numbers to the listing before you compare features. For most apartment and spare-room buyers, that measurement points to the Motion Space G1, because it is the only pick here with published dimensions that read as genuinely compact and a resistance figure heavy enough for real training. The other four picks earn their spots when the room grows: the HULKFIT for shared households, the FJÖR for a light setup, the JELENS for the Smith-plus-stack lifter, the Drone2 for the barbell lifter with a garage.
