I love this Gym! It's situated in a large shopping plaza with an Aldi's and other businesses close by. There's also plenty of parking. This location has a lot of interesting machines and large multipurpose rooms. I also love the women's locker room & the Sauna, which isn't usually crowded. read more

Just please mop that sauna and clean those bathroom floors. Everything else is top notch

With all due respect, I address you! You have poor control. Or you simply pretend not to. I've tried to communicate in every way possible, and they've been charging me more than $0.80 in less than a month. My membership or contract ended last year, and they're still charging me. Please fix this. read more

Read all the reviews prior and had very low expectations but was pleasantly surprised! The gym is very spacious and has many machines! There's even ones you don't see much of in New York city. There's a juice bar that's very fairly priced. A protein smoothie is only $8 compared to around $12-16 in the city. The only thing lacking is that you need to bring your lock and towel. But this is a community gym after all. read more

Powerhouse gym hazlet has no yelp, so I'll leave this here! WORST GYM I'VE EVER BEEN TO. if i could give it 0 stars i would. 1. The staff knows NOTHING. they are unhelpful and always on their phones. Half the time- the desk is empty... but don't worry they'll charge you $20 for a guest every time without fail! When trying to cancel my membership, the staff limboed me around for 2 months and NEVER gave me the correct information to quit. They said the manager would call... never did. I went in when they said the manager would be there... wasn't there. They would have scammed me if I didn't ask to cancel 427 times and cancel through my credit card company. 2. The guests have NO etiquette. I'm talking about personal space and machines. There is no kindness there and everyone is in everyones way. Theres never enough equipment and the turf is ALWAYS a mess. My leg days are full of stress because there are like two machines at most for each workout so I have to wait 20 minutes for everything. 3. The sauna is always left wide open and cold. They shut it down early or don't turn it on some days, mostly because they don't feel like it (what i was directly told by staff). People use it to dry their bathing suits so the benches look like laundry racks instead of sitting areas. Then you're left to sit in a wet spot. AND There is no sauna etiquette. I know this is fairly common, but at this pricepoint it's entirely frustrating; people listen to titktok out-loud and get annoyed when you ask them to put headphones in or turn it down. I was in there today and a girl started MOANING. (this was very loud and unignorable moaning). Then she yelled at me when i asked her if she was okay. I ALWAYS feel uncomfortable. I have not had a single positive experience at this gym in the past year. I wasted my money. Every time I go, I leave feeling annoyed and violated. Not to mention, the price is EXTREME for a gym thats facilities are always out of service. Pool, hot tub, steam room, all rotate in and out of service quite often... I feel like I was scammed into signing up for a full year and hate walking in there. I signed up because i was looking for an upgrade from planet fitness. I'd rather pay half the price for planet fitness... at least people respect your space and your workout there. The powerhouse sauna is unusable anyways so the perks aren't worth it. read more

Good gym equipment, has wipes for your seats, basketball court needs lines but it fine, and in general it is a good gym.

This is actually ridiculous. Don't get a powerhouse membership unless you wanna be charged for ever. Have been trying to cancel my membership for a while now, nobody can do it besides one person who is apparently never there. Still getting money taken from my account that I don't have. I never write bad reviews and I am so disappointed it had to get to this point. read more

Went there today for a seminar they were hosting . The gym is huge tons of equipment . Many different machines that most gyms I've been to do not have . They had a basketball 1/2 court too . The parking is ample the bathrooms were very clean and they have a protein shake station which is awesome after a work out . Only downside is it's very busy , little wait time for a few sets of legs and the free weights were kinda all over the place . I enjoyed it there . Staff was warm and welcoming . read more

I eneded my membership back in march paid everything so they don't contact me anymore because they literally suck! I spoke with the owner/ manager himself and told i was good. Fast forward in oct i have a collection amount . The worst gym ever!!! Ever! This has brought so much frustration especially during a fucking pandemic . The biggest fucking scam !!!! read more

Sales representative verbally omitted that contract being signed is 3 year contract, contract was signed electronically with no way to read what it actually said until after it's signed, manager defended this with "you have 3 days to cancel". What kind of contract makes you sign before you know what's in it and then makes you opt out on a very limited timeframe. Switch to paper contracts or find a way to show the whole contract to prospective customers digitally. read more

Worst gym ever. So disgusted by their awful customer service and even more horrified by their ridiculous way of scamming people. The machines are dirty and there's nothing special to this gyms amenities. Go somewhere else read more

I signed up back in 2016. I enjoyed coming until they changed the instructors and the classes in 2017. I couldn't fit going to the gym in my schedule because of financial reasons (took on a part-time job). I called to cancel my membership because after all, they were getting my money for 4 months straight without me stepping foot inside. When I spoke to a representative, they informed me the only way to get out of my contract is to send them a letter with proof of my new address and or a medical note stating that I can no longer work out (disability). The only other option is to cancel my credit card, but as a responsible adult, that isn't an option because it'll land on my credit report. I think it is absurd that any gym will make you sign a 3-year contract. Marriages don't last that long.. I would not knowingly sign a dang 3-year gym membership.. RETARDED! 1 star.. I'm annoyed and I'm pissed. At the end of the day.. It is with my darn self because I should have paid attention to the FINE PRINT. So this is a WARNING.. You have no clue what your circumstances will be in 3 days or 3 weeks. To sign a for a gym membership for 3 years is totally insane! ***** Not only is it $26 bucks a month.. they charge you $29 bucks every year there after.. I can't!!! read more

I have not experience any of the issues listed below. Maybe new management or new owner but our experience has been extremely positive. They have more equipment and machines then LA fitness and the gym doesn't get too packed at peak hours. Machines get fixed quickly and it's very clean. If you need a pool or big basketball court or racquetball then maybe this isn't the best option but for everyone else it is great. read more

Powerhouse is a great gym front desk staff is great.They have great classes with amazing instructors. They even have Precision Sports and Spine right there and I can't say enough positive things about Dr Steve and Dr Derek and Katie who I'm pretty sure they would be lost without her . Now as far as training companies go is another story . I've been training since 1/2018 and this is the second company that is leaving . I understand business decisions but Elite Performance is great Z is an amazing trainer but he will be leaving next month . So if you want a gym with a training company that will be around keep looking this isn't the place for you. read more

So had a complaint about the maintenance of the gym and repairs have been made. Hopefully they will stay on top of things.

This gym is a total waste of time/ Kayla and Gabby, learn something about customer service...it would suit you well. I didnt realize yelling and talking down to a client was the motive for the gym. JUST TO CLEAR THE AIR. THIS GYM IS INDEPENDENT. IT IS NOT TIED TO THE CHAIN OF "POWERHOUSE GYMS" IN THE US. It tries to sound like it is, but it does not operate within the context of this site: https://powerhousegym.com/ Maz, the owner..runs like like a bully. Without going through the details of what happened..I was treated with no courtesy, apologies or professionalism from the 2 ladies mentioned above. I will never join and encourage others to consider how they do practice before considering them. read more

Went in to check it out today. Had to leave mid way through the sales pitch because the entire gym smelled really bad, to the point that I was starting to get nauseous. Total meat head gym too. read more

Awesome gym.. equipment is a little old but it's a real deal sweaty gym to get in shape

The worst personal training experience ever. They changed personal trainers and companies like they change their underwear. All my sessions were paid for and then they changed owners and didn't even try to compensate for the money that was lost . I worked with a total of 7 trainers in less than a year , that is how often their trainers left . They hated management too and kept leaving and it messed up their clients . The owner of the gym said they had nothing to do with the personal training company . My husband and I both lost our money on sessions and saw no results . I was pregnant and they refused to hold my personal training payments when I was 8 months and told to stop working out . I was told I had to pay until my contract ran out . The equipment is nice and that deserves one star, the group fitness classes were all over the place always changing instructors and classes . Beware they are out to get your money ! My experience is based from sept 2017 to Jan 2019 . I haven't stepped foot in there since . I hope they actually spend money making it clean and safe for their clients due to COVID since they collect so much money scamming people. read more

Awesome place I love it ! I knew tons of people that go here and they all really enjoy it. Its a serious gym dedicated to helping others look and feel great read more

I walked into the gym this afternoon and three quarters of the people, including the staff were not wearing masks. This is complete insanity and I informed the Middlesex County Health Department. It is too bad, the facility is amazing, but the lack of mask wearing should keep everyone from ever using this gym. Also, the gym was over packed, there was no way to keep a 6 ft distance. This is exactly why COVID is so prevalent in NJ and why the variants are taking over. I am fully vaccinated and I workout everyday in my gym in DC, we all wear masks, it sucks, but it is the right thing to do in order to protect everyone's health. I could never live with myself if I worked out Powerhouse and brought COVID home to my elderly parents. The management of this gym should be immediately fired, they have created an apathetic atmosphere that allows for stupidity to rule... they literally are creating a public health nightmare. I never write reviews... if you cannot tell I am mad... please all stay away from this gym and stay healthy for your health and the greater good. Thank you. read more

I joined this gym maybe over a year ago and because of medical reasons needed to cancel my membership. My membership required me to give them 60 days notice to cancel which I did in September of 2017. I was told I'd receive a phone call from a manager named Katie. Never received the phone call so I thought the issue was resolved. Next thing a know I'm receiving phone calls and letters from ABC Financial with past due amounts. I then call the gym to speak with Katie and either she's not there or too busy to speak. Now it's almost February and it still hasn't been resolved nor do they have my 1st cancellation form on record. I've had to resubmit a cancellation form with a Doctors note. Now upon speaking with Katie she explains that there's nothing she or Steve (co-manager) can do about any past dues and now late fees attached. It's a shame anyone has to be treated this way about a gym membership. Especially when you follow protocol and nothing gets resolved. read more

I enjoy the atmosphere here, but am disappointed by the fact that it took them as long as it did to finish the basketball court or that they never stood by their 24 hrs during the summer!!! I know this was a downside for a lot of members. read more

Absolutely disgusting. This is run by bullies who feel they have authority to force you to 3 years and deny you cancellations unless you move. So basically I am forced to leave my home JUST to cancel my membership? Insane! They are completely selfish. They refuse to work with customers despite economic and family changes that have occurred. They offer daycare but only to 6M and over. So since I have no one to watch my baby I am forced to pay 6 months without using. The countless times that I have tried to cancel this past year has been denied by snooty foul mouthed unprofessional employees. My goodness this place is a trap. AVOID AT ALL COSTS! read more

Did you make self is OK but my review is going to be on the personal training section. In the summer I signed up for personal training with a woman who was later terminated. I was then assisted by another woman who was as well terminated. I had made the first payment and had to pause the membership and did so with Alex, whom was terminated. As it turns out time had passed and it was never put on hold, so when I went to take it off of hold they informed me that the one woman was gone the other woman was gone and I my entire balance at this time I was due in addition to late fees and all other fees that I refuse to pay. I spoke to the new gentleman that was working there and I spoke to the corporate offices a.k.a. club ready and have gotten nowhere at this time I sent my balance to the collection agency and I still have not had one personal training session at all in the gym. They were taking messages for almost a month giving them to I'm not sure who but not telling me that these people were terminated and the guy that is now in charge just played stupid and told me he didn't know where they were going. They are refusing to settle this so that I can get my training sessions and allowing me to only pay for the three months I agreed to stating that while I signed the contract it's stated that I had to cancel after the three months which I did verbally when I was in speaking to the man that works there now. So at this time I have an exorbitant amount that they claim is due and again have never yet once used any of the training sessions! The personal training group is a nightmare hard to get a hold of and makes consistent errors as well as fails to contact people back. Upon dealing with their corporate they are just as bad. I truly suggest that no one get involved with the training package at this gym and I have used training in the past at Retro and had a very positive and pleasant experience! My only reason for changing gyms was for the Sauna and unless this issue is resolved, I believe that I am changing back! In addition to this when I called the corporate office yet again they promised me a call back the following day because there were no managers available. I called the following day when I receive no call and there were no managers available it is now been a week and I still have not received a phone call. read more

Management is very disrespectful and liars and the front desk is rude. I've found needles in the parking lot when walking into the gym. According to two people I worked out with there, they saw one of their personal trainers selling steroids to members in the parking lot. The gym is dirty and they don't keep up with their equipment. For example, the preacher curl machine had no pad on it for two days and it was replaced with a boxing striking pad for about a month before they got around to fixing it. The locker rooms smell like sewers. They care about revenue and not you as a member. There are other gyms in the area that are cleaner, the staff actually acknowledges your existence and cares about your exercise goals. Would only recommend this if you're into getting staph infections or ringworm from laying on their benches. read more

Wow, talk about a bait and switch. When I joined it was clean and the equipment was new. The people were sort of friendly and the members courteous. I watched the dust bunnies grow under the equipment and the water bottles accumulate everywhere, the equipment would break and stay broken, the men's room went from clean to disgusting, and the staff went from friendly to nasty. The clientele is mixed with too many typical grunting HGH types that enter your workout space and come frighteningly close to injuring you. You tell the staff and they look at you like you have three heads. The contract is another story. To contact anyone about it is impossible. read more

I've been a member from day one .They had a rough start but really got the gym to be a great place.My wife and I both there a minimum five days a week .Since the reopening after COVID it was great to be back but some of the members started not to wear their masks not just standing but working out .My wife mentioned it to management and they said they would tell them to put theIr masks on .It happened a few more times , people were Working out heavily and not wearing any face masks.Today was the last straw there were two men about five feet away Doing heavy cardio jumping rope and using the ropes with no mask Sweating and blowing air and another guy working out without a mask . Again my wife asked the owner if they would ask their members to put on their masks The owner said something to two members a few minutes later I heard the muscle heads trash talking my wife still without their masks .I approached he manager a said if your not going to protect your business or your members the I'd like to suspend my membership till the COVID is over .The owner was more than happy to do so ,he even approached my wife and kinda suggested that she suspend hers as well . I guess it's better or easier to lose members who are trying to follow the state COVID rules than it is Correct or address these peopleAre not. I'm still amazed And insulted that a business that could be closed for not following the state guidelines would rather take that chance.We are going to miss the staff our friends and working out there . read more

waste of money. People, beware. This place is total scam. And people behind the counter, how to say it in nice way... No words. But I can assure you - if you get membership there, you'll regret, sooner or later, that you did. They're so money hungry, to the point of unbelievable... They charged late fee to my stepson. When we went there to explain that his mother passed away and last thing on his and my mind was to change credit card on file (which was hers and had to be cancelled) , we were told exactly:"we don't care, you have to pay that late fee". It is not about those $30, but rather about what kind of people work there, and what is atmosphere there too. read more

This to all the people this place they are crocks. I moved and they will not cancel my contact they tell you something and charge something do not give them your credit card when ask them for anything they tell you everything is on the contract do not go to this place they charge you mid year membership fee which they will never tell you when asked what is this charge you signed the contract do not go there read more

Unfortunately I didn't even get a chance to try the gym. A few weeks back I called and asked can I just come in and try the gym for the day before I sign up, I was told I can. Yesterday I came in after work with my gym bag ready to go and the women at the front desk tells me that I need to pay $15 dollars to get a guest pass and if I end up signing up, that $15 will go towards my membership. I say but what if I don't want to sign up after, I will end up paying $15 dollars just to try the gym for an hour. She said that is their policy so I walked out. I've moved a few times so I've been to my share of gyms and never has a gym charged me to try the gym. If people are "taking advantage" as she said they are, why not take ID from each person who has received a guest pass and make a list that way the same person can't get a guest pass again? Common sense no? Anyway, there are a ton of other gyms and fitness studios in the area. I refuse to pay for a one day guest pass to just try the gym. read more
