    I am looking around for a new gym. Seems like I find a gym and then life throws me a ball and I am…read morein search of another gym. So I came here using my 1 week free pass to check it out before I commit to a year (or 2) membership. There are two levels with the changing rooms and spin room on the lower level with the main check in desk. The upper level has the fitness room, cardio equipment and weights. This is a fairly small local place but is in clean decent shape. They do have up to date equipment and offer some good classes. The spin classes in the morning at 6 are full with a wait list. Although it is hard to get in the fact that it is full speaks for itself. I myself haven't taken a class and am thinking about it but augh 6 am to be on a bike. These folks really mean it! I've taken the step class and the Zumba and they were awesome. I def got my cardio work out. I am still need to test run a few others but this place may work. It is close to the commuter rail so getting off the train and right over for a work out is doable (not sure if this is a word). They do have a pool although I am not a swimmer. The weight room is a bit small but they have the basics and there are a mix of people at different times. Not sure I am finding the right workout group yet. I am looking for an energetic group of folks to help get me motivated and kick me into gear to get off my butt. I am not sure this is it. They will give you a lock for the lockers when you give them your keys and you can use the supplies such as hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner, shower soap too since all are fully stocked and right in the showers. It is clean and private. There is plenty of parking and the area seems safe and fairly well lit. I am still looking...

    First off, let me say that all of PF Management's responses to every complaint I've read is that we…read moreshould contact the local management. It says that in every negative review I've read. Obviously, this isn't working because it seems as if nothing has changed there in a long time. I get the fact that PF Natick is a franchise operation but why isn't PF Corporate getting involved to help??? The place is a mess and disorganized. Someone should take it seriously. Here's my updated review: I reviewed PF Natick about a year ago but since then, it's gone downhill. My main complaint has to do with the cleaning stations. Someone decided to remove some of them and reconfigure the whole setup. As a result, there is one paper towel dispenser and one bottle of cleaning solution for the entire weight machine area in the front. Then, to discard the paper towel, you have to walk to a waste basket in a different location. It makes no sense and in fact, it's leading to people to avoid cleaning the machines because it's too disorganized. Secondly, they installed some sort of small computer screens in the men's bathroom which are attached to each of the 3 faucets. These apparently are there to show ads, kind of like the screens you see at gas pumps. The only problem is that the screens interfere with hand washing. I go to PF Natick because it's closer to my house but I'm going to consider going somewhere else.

    The gym is fine - typical Planet fitness but the locker rooms are generally filthy…read more The showers and sink areas don't appear to ever be deep cleaned as there is dirt, grime and filth in the corners and crevices that never goes away. These areas appear to only get a general "wipe down" which is gross, especially with so much use.

    I come here mainly on weekends, when my home Y closes way the heck too early (4pm vs 7pm here)…read more I'd say that about 70-80% of their equipment is fine. Lots of free weights and strength machines. The highlight is the huge, high-ceilinged (30-40ft?) functional fitness space that features a turf area, a sled, kettlebells, plyo boxes, plyo smash balls, a do-it-all calisthenics multi-station that includes weighted pulleys, dip and pullup and monkey bars, a free hanging real boxing bag (nice angled uppercut bag that's just the right weight to make you "dance" to avoid the swing back, yet forgiving enough that you can punch it without gloves without risking a broken wrist or bruised knuckles), a pair of Assault bikes and treadmills, a Concept rower, some meh Schwinn stationary bikes (more on that later), and two full squat cages with plenty of plates and barbells. So, what about the other 20-30%, you ask? Well, their cardio machines range from so-so to unusably lousy. All the treadmills are Precor, which are a clear step down from the Life Fitness TMs most Ys have: smaller uglier fuzzy screens with spotty internet connection that can freeze up in the middle of a workout, noisier and less stable platform. The stationary bikes are a mix of Precor (typical mediocre gym bike with crap ergonomics where you feel like you're on a creaky toy bike pedaling against some barbaric pad not magnetic resistance) and Espresso (video-gaming type bike clearly designed to seduce ADD teenagers or lazy af adults) and the horrible Schwinn bikes (just as bad as most home exercise bikes, you can understand why people mostly use them as clothes hangers). Please please please can you guys get at least a few KEISER bikes? We know you can have decent taste in cardio machines because you kept your CONCEPT rowers instead of choosing some oversized gym-brand rowers which look impressive but have similarly lousy ergonomics. Oh and they have non-mechanical Assault brand treadmills which nobody uses because they are brutal on the knees, too narrow and unstable. I don't know who was in charge of choosing the cardio equipment, but that person needs to be put to work cleaning the bathrooms or something more appropriate! The other major gripe I have is their sauna --- it's spacious and new and pretty, but who in the hell decided to have only ONE row of seating? Completely idiotic, folks: did you not pass seventh grade Life Science, where they teach you that heat RISES, and that's why all real saunas have TWO levels of seating, with the 2nd one being a good 4-5 feet off the ground so that you get the full benefit of the heat in the room? Here you have to STAND on the damned low benches if you want to get a decent sweat in ... the sauna thermometer reads 170F but if you're sitting down you'd be lucky to get 140-150F, which is useless. (The sauna of the Melrose YMCA has the same idiotic mistake.) So, while I'm grateful that this Y offers me decent hours to work out on weekends making the long drive out there worthwhile, their cardio machines selection and sauna design really really need a rethink.

Great environment for serious training, everyone is nice and helpful. The owners Bob and Don are probably the nicest people you'll ever meet. Can't say enough good things about this place. If you're in the Boston area this is the best PL gym you're going to find, hands down.

    (09/27/26) The good:…read more The gym has a vast amount of equipment to use and definitely essential for gym goers to discover themselves with their programs. It's a great environment for anyone who desire to improve their performance. They recently installed cameras inside the facility for the first time. (They need to update their terms of agreement about how they use the cameras). In the middle: Where are the boundaries? Sometimes I can tell there are information about people and how they talk about one other are misleading. When I'm there for seven months now, not a lot of people ask me questions. The talk goes on based on their observation of what I do at the gym. The bad: As a deaf person, I feel somewhat discriminated because how they find that I have a disability. I notice people think I'm disadvantaged (I don't blame them, but it is wrong to think that way) which leads to erroneous assumptions towards me. I truly appreciate their attempts to assist me in some ways. I do recognize that and tried to signal to them I don't want them to 'help me for free because I have a disability'. After series of events led to a severe misunderstanding of my intentions. My intention is to follow my own program and flourish from that. Whereas I only go to MetFit to lift hard and definitely gotten their attention. Once again, I don't blame them for wanting to work with me. From my previous experiences gives me a clear boundaries towards people and I like to stay quiet. To top it off I like to give respect to others as much I can. My boundaries were not well received by some gym members there. I believe it's some kind of privilege they have in order to demonstrate "who is running the gym". (09/27/26)
