Manager is rude, condescending, and people are leaving the gym in droves because she's making it a miserable place removing all sense of community that once existed. Hit up a locally owned gym and get your money's worth. Machines areconstantly broken. read more

I've been coming to this WOW location for the past 6 years & their last manager (Lily) went above & beyond to keep members happy & has been a dedicated employee for over 5 years to this company. What did they do to repay her?? Oh they fired her, a single mother at that, SIMPLY bc they didn't want to pay her what she was worth, so ofc to save costs they bring in a low grade manager who is rude & condescending to guests! Why are we paying 30+ a month & you guys can't even hire a competent manager? Mind you, the gym is crawling with creeps, it's no secret, Lily had a strict ZERO tolerance policy & protected the women of her gym.. you will be losing A LOT more money than you thought you'd be saving. I'll also point out this location has roaches & Lily & her minimum wage employees had to battle them, along with the clogged pipes that always flood the locker room with poop water, they make their employees clean it with zero hazard pay... read more

Worst contract ever + machines are always out of service and barely maintained! main room don't get a lying leg curls only the women section, only one leg press so you get lucky to be the only one at the time doing legs lol read more

WOW and Redwood training both frauds. This location is loaded with rude staff , that jokes around with Redwood Training about members. They will shake your hand and say nice things to your faces, then talk bad about you and harass you. I been going to gyms for 30 years, this is the most drama l have ever seen. Plus if you want to cancel your membership, they give you a run around & still keep billing you. Stay away! read more

NOTE !!!! This review is not for WOW itself but the Redwood Personal Training company inside it. The workout world itself is excellent. My wife recently signed up for personal training and was given a link to obtain a copy of the contract itself. When we got home the link was invalid and the employees are not there over the weekend, so she decided not to continue with the program. And is now going to have to pay over $500 in cancelation fees in order to get out of the contract.? There is a 3 day get out clause that we were unaware of due to the invalid link and the lack of ability to read the contract itself. The Representative at the Taunton location was completely unhelpful. In every way or form we do not recommend this company but the WOW location itself is wonderful. read more

if i could give a negative start i would!!!! stay away from this gym and any gyms associated with abc fitness!!! their contract doesn't mean shit!! they don't follow their own rules! costumer service calling center is just as useless as the employees on this gym!! i have never been so disappointed with a gym in my life! better off going to a smaller private gym that will actually follow their agreement with you and provide you a better service! absolutely worst gym company i have ever dealt with! will never ever deal with franchises that have to do with abc fitness ever again! and if i was you stay away!!!!!! save yourself the headache! read more

Love this location! Freshly updated, this particular location offers a new class room which features black lights. Club zumba and glow cycle ride classes are offered here that aren't offered elsewhere. So much fun!! Women's only area has most machines I could want to use. Friendly staff. Love this location! read more

Work out world taunton Cancelled my membership on 10/3/22, received email with confirmation on my buyout via email same day on 10/3, on 11/1/22 charged $19.99 which I assume is the 30-45 day period they say they need to finalize the cancellation of membership. On 11/29 - 57 days after my cancellation I received a $59 charge on credit card for a safety fee?? On 12/1 - 59 days after the cancellation I am charged $19.99 for month gym use Called gym on 12/2- to ask why I keep getting charged. Gym says I must deal with corporate. 12/5. - I receive email back from corporate saying they are cancelling membership on Dec 31 2022. 90 days after I cancelled. 12/12 - walk into gym and speak with associate and GM and they tell me I should of emailed cancellation on 12/3. - despite signing papers and being charged on 10/3 a cancellation fee. Also told I'm just the General Manager I can't do anything. Laughable! read more

Male workers will go into ladies locker room without announcement & even when they do they yell out "coming in" and don't even care when you yell bk " occupied " Dude really tried to argue with me while I'm in my underwear about how he has to get something from his office....which is in the ladies locker room. Immediately cancel my membership & noticed on Bank statement ....they were still taking $. Called and tried to have them fix that & they blamed 3rd party billing. Ummm ok but I didn't do business with the 3rd party you do ...they won't return the $ they shouldn't have taken & my bank was the ones who had to stop all payments. read more

I like the group classes like Tabata. My complaint is the equipment in the group class is pretty bad the weights are so old and dirty. The weight bars are the worst. There is not enough for the class and are the worst. They are also very old and do not have the rubber ends on them so you can know what the weights are. We can not use the kettle bells because there is no l light weight ones for members to use. Now we pay $10.00 more to do the group chat, so we as platinum members should have better equipment to use. I know that some of us has brought it to management's attention before and had no results. And the gr class room is always not clean. The floor and mirrors are not cleaned. read more

For the price the gym is fine enough. Sometimes my child reeks like perfume from the babysitting. It's so gross I end up having to give them a bath as soon as we get home so I don't have to smell them anymore and so they're not stuck with that stench. Overall the babysitters I've experienced have been very nice. it's been unfortunate because I pay for babysitting and then hire a babysitter on my own so I can go to the gym because I don't want my kid to reek like perfume. I brought it up several times and it still happens there. The women's gym is small and you basically get the leftover weights. The classes I've taken are good. And they just put in a bunch of new cardio machines. I'd give this gym more stars but I just can't get past the nasty perfume smell. read more

BE CAREFUL DEALING WITH THIS COMPANY - they have no problem unfairly and unapologetically taking your money! (Also be prepared for Covid/mask-n@zi culture, not exactly welcoming vibes..) Signed up at Norwood location in December, so-called "cleaning fee" of $59.99 charged in mid-January. Shortly thereafter, I just so happened to find out about the location move to Canton when a personal trainer called to offer the new member free personal training session. Received the call on Wed or Thurs, club closed on following Sunday. NO posted notifications until only a couple days prior to the move, only saw them AFTER the phone call. Would've been nice if they gave members the courtesy of at least 30 days notice like THEY expect to get. I signed up for THAT SPECIFIC location, not Canton. I was able to cancel, but they refuse to refund the "cleaning fee," even though the company knew very well that they were moving when I signed up and conveniently neglected to mention it. I see from other reviews here that this is clearly a regular practice for these people, and it looks like they've been getting away with it. Talk about unfair and predatory business practices! Totally in willful violation of Massachusetts Consumer Protection Laws. Pretty disgusting, my advice is STAY AWAY. Go to another gym. read more

The whole corporation is a scam. Planet fitness has much more amenities for a better price. Do not enter a contract with these people!

The new treadmills are horrific. One could break a finger on the handles that jet out of the handle when running. I am an avid runner and have tried about 10 of these treadmills and they all feel like you are running up a mountain even if the incline says 0. Poor design, when you set up the program (it takes a while), it shuts down after 30 minutes and then you have to set it up all over again. And back to those handles, when you are jogging, if you don't break your finger on the protruding handles, you change the settings if you accidently hit them so then your speed has increased and you are inclining further. These treadmills are a zero. Oh and forget about watching anything on the TV's except News, more news, Sports, more sports or cartoons. read more

Work Out World - Temps at this gym - Gyms Near Me - Taunton, Massachusetts

I have been a member here since they first opened so I guess that makes me qualified to write an objective review. Pros * Decent ownership- Cleanliness / Facility maintenance in a timely fashion etc.., * Competitive pricing (well below the nearest competitors). * Modern / updated Cardio Machines etc.., Cons (Very Slight) * Parking-I go early in the morning so parking is never an issue for me though I suspect it could be for those who go at peak hours. read more

I love the fact that it is a CLEAN WoW!! Seriously, the Brockton WoW has went downhill. Anyhow, they have plenty of cardio machines which is a plus if your a cardio freak. There is plenty of space for improvement considering such a large clientele. 1. Women's Only area needs more mats, dumbells, a barbell rack, steps, and exercise balls 2. More PARKING Other than that, I think as long as they replace equipment with wear then they should be a top gym in the area read more

PROS: I really like it here! I was completely in-love with my previous gym, and when I moved to the area I was making the 45min drive to and from Brockton. I signed up for WOW to give it a shot, and eventually cancelled my other gym membership because I liked it here so much! The facility is clean, new, and has up -to-date machines. Most of the classes, and instructors (specifically the evening classes) are awesome. Most of the staff is really nice too! FYI & CONS: If your the type of person that hates working with others, this is probably not your place. The place gets PACKED! Its even tough to get on a machine during the prime evening hours. Just suck it up, and use your surroundings as motivation ;)...The parking is terrible, but you'll eventually find something. If your the type that like traditional classes such as, Step, look elsewhere because they don't offer it here. I don't use the woman's room aside from the 5-10lb free weights because they don't have lighter weights in other areas of the gym, so I can't comment much about it except for the fact that there is only one set of free weights, and if someone is using the weight you want you have to wait for them... Lastly, sometimes the AC breaks in the exercise room, and it gets too hot in a packed class, but overall this is really a great gym, and you cant beat the price! read more

Charged clients for services they could not use during a pandemic for the month of April , May , and a June .

Best gym around! Open 24/7 days a week, nothing beats that! Owner of this location takes pride of this place and seems to like everything nice and clean. Just avoid weekdays after 4pm, if you want to workout! I have nothing bad to say about this place, especially when you see staff here on their hands and knees scrubing machines after peak times to make sure things are clean for the next day. read more

Work Out World - Gyms Near Me - Taunton, Massachusetts

Great gym and great location for me and my needs. I wish they had more morning spin classes with a variety of instructors. The same one teaches multiple classes and I really don't like her music or classes. The ladies workout area is great. Parking is difficult here due to business in the area. Showers clean and they are open 24 hours. They have tanning and babysitting. Great value and you can use their other locations as well. read more

Work Out World - Free tanning for platinum members! - Gyms Near Me - Taunton, Massachusetts

I live in Queens but need a gym to use when I visit family in the area. Used to go to the ymca but their weights room is a joke.. Seriously stuck in the 1980s. Which is fine if you are only benching, squatting and deadlifting but not so fine if you're figure training. Tons of weights, clean, lots of space and cardio machines if being a cardio bunny is your thing. lol one guy tried to intimidate me out of using a rack but I just laughed at his face while pointing at his legs. Has never happened to me before and I still don't believe it actually did. Especially from a guy who squats less than I do! *brushes shoulders off* 10$ for a day pass is steep- but well worth it. Would definitely be a member of I lived here. Not the best gym I've ever been to, but definitely the best in the Taunton area. read more

I LOVE this gym! it's always clean and the machines are great. I haven't tried any of the classes yet but I already know one of the instructors personally. What I love the most is that it's a 24 hour gym and I can always go and find a free machine to use. I also think it's great that every single machine has a personal tv on them it sure beats the one tv at my old gym. The only reason I'm not going right now is that I'm enjoying the summer weather and walking and running outside but once it gets colder I'll be there every night I can. read more

Make sure you mark your calendar and cancel on time or else they consider their contract to be lifelong yet still charge a renewal fee every year without any warning. Nice gyms but most are at least that nice. read more

Used to be better at the original location, turning more into a planet fitness type area. Still good place for a solid workout

WOW has moved to the Galleria Mall. The facility is very nice, as it is new. But the machines are the same ones from their previous location. My only complaint about the gym is the temperature. It's a good 10 degrees hotter than it should be. This is in both the winter and summer months. It often feels like a sauna. The parking lot is much bigger here as they have the whole area near the Cinema and Round 1. My only issue is that people don't park correctly. The lot has arrows, meaning one way only. Everyone is always driving up and down the wrong way. And people blow through the stop signs. I always park far away because I'm afraid someone is going to hit me. read more

been going for couple years now. i like the setup thats why i go. its too busy during peak hours though as the free weight area is kinda cramped. the staff last year used to be very good friendly and all however the new staff is mostly lacking for the most part. one young kid doesnt even acknowledge you anytime you go there. not a single word from this kid. he always looks like he doesnt want to be there. Im starting to just hate seeing him there with his expressionless stupid face. management really should get him out of there and im sure they know exactly who he is. useless blond kid. On a positive note: another guy with dark hair is very polite and friendly i see him there a lot. other day he told me to let him know if i needed anything. not that im going to, but it was nice to hear that from him regardless. very nice. read more

This place is huge. Definitly the largest WOW location ive been to. Having to never wait for a cardio machine earns the 2 stars. Overall cleanliness is a major disappointment. Rarely will you see anyone cleaning machines or the locker room for that matter. Gross. The extent of their cleaning is relying on customers to wipe machines with a paper towel after use. Maybe 20% of the people that go there actually do this. Their parking scene is atrocious, requiring you to park across the street or around the building. Unwanted cardio. Also overheard a personal trainer jokingly say to one of his buddies that he loves his job because most of the people he trains don't show up because they are fat and lazy On side note, there's a guy named Darrell who works the front desk that has the worst attitude ive ever seen. I explained to him I left my card at home. You would've thought I ran over his dog. read more

Nice place but it is getting kind of ratty and dingy. Most of the machines work fine. TVs on cardio don't work very well. Heart rate monitors on cardio are mostly all nonfunctional. Other than that it is well maintained. Typical gym clientele across the spectrum. I was a member for a year. Quit because I could no longer stand the music they play over the speakers and moved to a more conveniently located gym. read more

As far as gyms go, this is the best and biggest you could be a member of for just $10 per month. The only problem is the parking... Always best to go before 5pm or after 7pm otherwise you risk not getting a parking spot. read more

I've been a member here since 2012 and I have to say it's one of the better gyms I've been a member of. The hours are great, 24/7, though I have to ask, does the gym REALLY need to be open Christmas day? Give your employees a break. But, I digress. Pros include the cleanliness. I always see employees sweeping and wiping down machines. More than what I can say about the people actually using the machines. Yick. The front desk folks always wish you a good day/night. For what you pay for though, it's excellent. Cons. Like previous posters, I have the say the parking situation is abysmal. If I go at 6pm on a weeknight I usually have to park behind the building. But in no way does that always reflect the volume of people inside. If the parking lot is full, there are still plenty of machines to work out on when you get in. I think the classes are really popular, so that might be where everyone is around that time. Also going on what another poster said, it does get pretty warm in there. I overheat easily and I think if they turned it down maybe 3-4 degrees, I'd find it more comfortable. Overall, for $10/month, you can't beat it. If all you need is a treadmill, some weights and a hot shower afterwards, you got it all here. read more

This place has really went down hill. Especially their customer service. On Friday June 12, 2015, I went in with a "Platinum Member" . I am visiting from San Diego to attend my daughter's graduation. This was my fourth visit as a guest there and it was the first time I was asked to have my ID left at the front desk. I asked why, and they could not give me an explanation. The other times I arrived, the front desk simply waved me in with no questions ask. When it was time to leave, I went to the rest room and the member I was with left. When I asked for my lD, they would not return it and they asked me to call the member and have them return and sign for it. I knew this would take a long time so I explained to the front desk I had to get ready for my daughter's graduation and that I knew the member had to take her husband to work first. I asked respectfully for them to return my property because I have nothing of theirs and they do not have a right to keep my property. They still would not return my property. It was not until I got completely out of character and yelled and dropped many F-bombs that they returned my ID. How ridiculous is that? When I come to this area to train, I know go to Club-Fit in Dartmouth. The Club-Fit staff are always smiling and they treat me like I am a regular. They also have more equipment including functional equipment and Kettlebells. As a top ranked Certified Trainer and Nutritionist in the San Diego area, I highly recommend trying Club-Fit first. It is worth the trip! All the @Work out Worlds" in the area miss the mark by a million miles. read more

This gym is great! I love that it is open AND there are employees there 24/7. I have the 20 a month plan and haven't taken any classes yet, but my friend swears by them and thinks they are great. I go at a great time so I am always able to get a machine, which are clean and all in great working order. I driver 20 mins to get there and wouldn't go to any other gym around. The only complaint I would say I have is the parking situation. They share a parking lot with some other companies so parking is limited...but there is a lot across the street and behind the building where you can usually get parking spot..i guess if I am going to the gym I shouldn't complain about walking ...hahaha Great Gym...everyone should join :) read more

Pros- ton of equipment, daycare girls are great. Semi clean, they could make a rule to carry in sneakers during snow the machines have dirt all over them. I don't like that you have to get a chip an hour before a spin class because the teacher is popular. It should be first come first serve at time of class. Daycare hours suck, from 12 to 4:30 there are none. They need more signs for tv channels on machines and HUGE signs for people to wipe down machines after use? If they see someone not do it, they should say something, it's disgusting! But all in all happy with the gym! read more

Good place. Good pricing. Lots of equipment. Plenty of parking. Not a real fancy place but it's got EVERYTHING you need. Glad I joined. read more

I agree with the other comment- it could definitely be cleaner. They used to do a good job spraying and wiping equipment and floors...not anymore. And parking is ridiculous...more places labeled "do not park" than there is to park. Management needs to renegotiate this one. Tanning equipment was upgraded last year, classes are good with lots of variety. $20 deal and bring a friend anytime is a good option. It's not in a very convenient location. Typically takes 20-25 minutes to get there with traffic and lights. But overall, not a bad gym for the price, the flexible hours, the classes and the variety. Don't buy the training packages. The trainers look bored, not very enthusiastic. Best bet- find a trainer on your own and bring them with you on the $20 membership. read more

I just moved from Georgia where I was a member of Planet Fitness. I joined wow because the location was better than any Planet. Although I like wow it is lacking some very important factors. A-there should be a place for members to hang their keys. Who wants to carry their keys around or get a locker just for keys? Also why isn't there cup holders on the equipment? Leaving my bottled water/drink on the floor in unsanitary. Lastly, there needs to be more stations with paper towels. These are the things Planet is achieving over this gym. read more

I like this gym a lot. The people that work here are super nice and they're always cleaning. The place is super clean. It can get packed at times, but that's like any gym. Can't beat the prices. They have lost of equipment read more

I was a member of WOW in Brockton and hated it so I was a little skeptical when came to joining another WOW gym but this one is very nice. One of the cleanest gyms I've been in and best of all, no hefty fee was required in order for me to join which is awesome considering what I went through with the Brockton one. Staff seems attentive. Plenty of equipment. The cons are parking, channels to watch on the cardio equipment and the sauna. Instead of saying they have a "sauna" they should just say they have a sauna stall (fits 3 or 4 people) because that's pretty much what it is. I must say I was kind of disappointed with that. And it's in the same room as the shower stalls and bathroom stalls (thumbs down) I thought they actually had a sauna room. Parking is annoying, especially when gym is busy and they don't have a nice variety of channels for you to watch while you workout so you're better off bringing a book to read or something. All in all, I'm glad I chose this gym. read more

This gym definately has pros and cons. I love working out and I really liked the atmosphere here. The place is kept really clean, machines all working ect. and the people who work there are friendly. The weight lifting areas are kept neat and orderly and they have a lot to offer in equipment. But as stated parking stinks but hey what's a little extra walk when you are going there for exercise. My major complaint...classes. They are all geared towards 20 somethings that think killing yourself is exercise. Having been an instructor at 2 other gyms, classes are supposed to be geared to all levels. An instructor should not be trying to make you drop. I specifically went there for Zumba but actually busted out laughing at the duo teaching one of the classes. They were so engrossed in their own images in the mirror (like they were doing a broadway production) that they never noticed that the majority of the 30 women in the class were bumping into each other and going in a million directions. I decided to give them a few tries (hey maybe it was me right) wrong. Every class with them was frustrating and they change there production every few weeks so just when everyone was starting to get the hang of it, it would turn into chaos again. The spinning classes are good and the instructors seem to really get involved with everyone on an individual basis. They keep it safe and offer intense workouts. Boot camp classes....well all I can say is I did real boot camp and it was easier and safer than the ones taught here. So even thought this gym is cheaper and closer to home, I went back to my old gym. At least I won't wind up in traction! read more

Always clean, well running machines. A little warm in the summer, but for $11/month, well worth the price.
