Overview
DONOW's DN-DS938 is a Smith machine style home gym rated to handle up to 2240 pounds combined load, with a large frame measuring 54.7 inches deep, 78.58 inches wide and 88 inches tall. The DN-DS938N variant adds a 352-pound weight stack for cable work.
Smith machines pair a fixed vertical bar path with a full home gym frame, and DONOW's spec sheet leans on that combination: a heavy 2240-pound rated capacity plus, on the DN-DS938N version, a built-in 352-pound weight stack for pulley work. The listing does not detail attachment count or plate storage, so confirm the exact package before ordering.
- 2240 pound max weight capacity
- 54.7 inch depth by 78.58 inch width by 88 inch height
- DN-DS938N includes a 352 pound weight stack
- Combines squat rack and cable functions in one frame
Who it's for
Fits home gym builders who want a squat rack, bench press station and cable stack in one frame rather than assembling separate machines. Better suited to a dedicated basement or garage gym given the roughly 6.5 by 6.5 foot footprint and 88 inch height.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Guided bar track works squats and presses without a spotter
- Rated to a heavy 2240 pound combined capacity
- DN-DS938N variant adds a 352 pound cable stack
- Large footprint needs a dedicated room
- Attachment and accessory details are not specified
Performance notes
The guided bar track is the core of a Smith machine, keeping the barbell moving on a fixed vertical path for squats, presses and other compound lifts without a spotter. The listed 2240 pound capacity points to a reinforced frame meant for serious loading, while the 352-pound stack on the DN-DS938N handles pulley based accessory work.
