Tonal Won’t Make a Middle Tier for Lifters
You refuse to offer a tier that allows for the devices functionality without the cost of its classes.
Want to remove your subscription? You’ll also lose every beep. Intelligent tracking. Everything that makes this more than a pile of magnets.
You either pay 60 bucks a month on top of the 3000 you paid for the device, just to continue to use it, or nothing per month, and it returns to being a magnet heap.
That’s a lot of money to pay for those of us that don’t turn to the device for classes.
Professional lifters are getting screwed by this device. Spread $3780 (the purchase plus a year of tech subscription) over a gym membership. You’ll probably get four years.

Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. I understand why the ongoing membership cost can feel frustrating, especially for members who primarily use Tonal for strength training and dynamic weight modes rather than guided classes. You made a significant investment in the equipment, and your suggestion for a more flexible membership option for those who want to retain certain features is completely understandable. I’ll make sure your feedback is shared with the appropriate team for consideration.
The mostly good…& would like to improve…
I love my workouts and have seen real progress building custom tailored workouts to fit my schedule and goals. I have even tried the programs and find them engaging and challenging but structures. The only thing I find lacking is the equipment. There are no workouts or equipment that include an incline bench. There are also limited options for dance fitness workouts. I also think it would be nice to have accessories that are not priced so high and often sold out. Nonetheless, I love my tonal and have become more confident and consistent with working out because of it so for that I will always be a loyal customer.

Thank you for sharing such thoughtful feedback. We’re happy to hear Tonal has helped you become more confident and consistent with your workouts. We also appreciate your suggestions regarding incline bench options, dance fitness content, and accessory pricing and availability. We’ll make sure your feedback is shared with the appropriate teams.
I bought back in the beginning when…
I bought back in the beginning when they came on to the market. The machine itself is great, and is perfect for space saving and those that are new to lifting. For me, I never found any of the programs to be useful though. The thing I used it for the most was the dynamic tension. However, I am just tired of paying 70 a month endlessly just for that. I paid thousands for the machine, and thousands more over the years just to save my data and have the dynamic tension. If they ever have a 10/m payment to keep that I may keep using it. Just know you are paying a lot for a cable machine if you do not want to keep the subscription.

Thank you for being a Tonal member since the early days and for recognizing the machine’s space-saving design and usefulness for newer lifters. I’m sorry the ongoing membership cost has made it difficult to continue using the features you value most, particularly dynamic weight. I understand how paying for the equipment and then continuing to pay for access to key functionality can feel discouraging. Your suggestion for a lower-cost option is valuable, and I’ll make sure this feedback is shared with our team.
