Very handy for my work - and opening times are good too.

Has anyone tried this place?

I might just cough up the SFr20 for a single entry to try it out first - but would like to read some opinions first.

Cheers,

wow. The prices are VERY GOOD!

I have to pay fast 800CHF/Year in Wädenswil and this gym costs only 300CHF/year..... Crazy.
And looks very big and well equiped.

I am looking for a gym, but that would be too far away... Or I could get an ABO for the SBB, but it would be more expensive than the gym.

Hi Nick,

I checked out the one in Zurich, v large, and has all the latest equipment but they were charging to use the showers!! So had to say no from that point and rejoined silouette instead.

Fitmade looks great if its only gym equipment your looking for, as you say its the only place that opens early\late, no classes fyi.

Do you recall how much they were charging for showers? I live close enough I could maybe overlook it, but I'd want the occasional one there at least.

I signed up to fitmade Basel a while ago

it's a very cut cost system
cons
- you have to pay for showers
- there's often only 1 staff member in the whole gym, and sometimes you're waiting 5 minutes for them to take your card and give you a locker key
- no classes
- essentially no assistance from the staff because they're mostly consumed with doing admin stuff
pros
- cheap
- the machines are new a decent quality
- good if you don't need guidance or classes
