I gave it one star because PH kept charging my CC after I clearly terminated training and membership 4 months ago. If I didn't notice it, will PH keep stealing from me forever? The lengthy contract that you signed, it cannot be terminated by making it crystal clear that you decide to terminate it. I still recommend this place due to the stellar trainers (i gave my trainer a very positive review on thumbtack) and very friendly, supportive, vibe, just be aware that you will have to yell and fight to stop being robbed afterwards. PS: just scrolled down others' reviews on google and unsurprisingly im not alone. PH, you have good trainers and good equipment, please just drop this despicable behavior and you will become a perfect gym! read more

Powerhouse Gym-Saline - Gyms Near Me - Saline, Michigan

I have been working with Cameron, a personal trainer at Powerhouse, to get back in shape. I have a disorder that makes my joints extra flexible, which got much worse when I got out of shape during the pandemic. Because my joints were so mobile, I was experiencing a lot of pain in my hips, knees and ribcage. I knew I needed to build muscle to strengthen my joints, but I was overwhelmed and didn't know where to start. Fortunately, I started working regularly with Cameron, and with his help I have made great progress. He's very encouraging and I work out much harder with him than I would on my own. Also importantly, because of his training, I have peace of mind knowing that he'll make sure I use correct form and not accidentally injure myself. Before I started working with Cameron, my ribs, knees and hips hurt. At points I couldn't walk more than a mile. Now I'm thrilled to say that I'm pain free, getting stronger by the day and no longer have mobility problems. The gains I've made with Cameron's help have had a huge positive impact on my day to day and I'm so happy to be able to trust my body again and no longer be in pain. Are you feeling out of shape and overwhelmed and don't know where to start? Try working with Cameron, and you'll safely see results and be feeling better soon! Thanks Cameron! read more

I have no complaints about the gym, has everything I was looking for and kept clean. My complaint is about cancelling a membership. You can only request a cancellation by email. I had to post it twice before I recieved an email back stating it was cancelled but I will be billed for one more month. Ok, that's fine. But I was never cancelled and charged another month. I emailed twice, I called and left a message. I was completely ignored. I had to file a claim on my credit card to get credited for that month and to stop further payments. That alone will prevent me from joining again in the future. read more

Beware of hidden fee's. Make sure you read the contract front to back and all fine print before signing. They will add on fee's even after telling you your not applicable for them. Gym owner will not return phone calls so be prepared to hunt him down if you have a question about your bill. It also takes a few months to cancel so be prepared to be charged month's after they give you your cancelation date. They will also charge you for a full month no matter when you sign up. Ex. you sign up on Jan. 27th you pay for all of January and again four days later for Feb. on the 1st. Total scam in my opinion and the receptionists. Equipment is shoddy. Many of the TV's on the equipment are broken which is not a big deal but the "STOP" button on the treadmills not working isn't funny. Not only is it unsafe but you have to pull the emergency stop button which will clear all of your workouts data. Bottom line, don't trust this gym. There are plenty of other gym's in the area that have better equipment, rates, and customer service. I highly recommend any of them over this gym. read more

I love this gym!!! The front desk staff is super friendly and the rest of the employees here make you feel like you're family. It's very clean and looks like there have been some upgrades to the gym. The classes and instructors are great 2! Thumbs up! I will definitely continue visiting this gym. read more

Purchased the 2 month groupon and it was a very good deal to try out the gym. The gym has very good equipment, a good location, open 24/7. It is a very good gym to work out at. I'm looking into a regular membership. read more

A nice neighborhood gym in a small town like Saline. Friendly and helpful owner and staff. I really enjoyed working out here as it was super close to my house and 24-7 access which really ease my mind as no need to plan ahead for gym hours. Never been too crowded but still get lots of motivation from other members working out here. Definitely gonna come back next time I visit Saline. read more

I purchased a 2-month Groupon for full membership benefits for the Powerhouse Gym in Saline. My main motivator to try this gym out was the kid care that came included in the membership. With two small kids, this was awesome for letting me workout in peace. Now to be clear, I'm not a health freak or a gym rat; I just wanted a gym where I could do simple workouts and not have to worry about my kids. In other words, I mainly stick to using the treadmill, bike, free weights, and do some light circuit training. Nothing major. They do offer classes as well that are included in the membership (Zumba, spinning, yoga, boot camp, etc.), but I have yet to attend one. The gym is pretty clean, and the staff is also very friendly. They do have trainers, and I actually did training with Cam for about 3 months. He kicked my butt every workout session. Anyhow, I did end up extending my membership after the 2-month period. The only downside is that pricing is a little high. They gave me an option to pay for 12 months in advance or pay $30, $40, or $50 a month, depending on how much you put down initially. On top of that, there is an annual fee of $60. I believe minimum down payment is over $100. I am paying $40/month, but to me it's worth it with the kid care. The ladies who run the kid care are super nice and very resourceful. If there is an issue with your kid, they come out and get you, but I haven't had that happen yet. The gym is also never super crowded. Lots of different ages and body types. All in all, I would definitely recommend this gym. read more

The equipment is very old and outdated especially the pin stack machines and benches. The leg extension and leg curl machines don't go very heavy and are worthless to anyone who has strong legs. If you like a gym that isn't crowded then this is a good place but although I don't like an overcrowded gym I dislike an undercrowded gym just as well. It's much more motivating when there is some energy around you and there is very little energy or members here. I would attribute this to the fact that the facility is very overpriced for a bunch of old equipment. Their rates in general are about $10 more a month than the Ypsilanti Powerhouse and yet the Ypsi location has much newer, better, equipment and more if it. The only positives I would give the Saline facility is that the dumbells go up to 150 and the facility is 24 hours. I have worked out in dozens of gyms for over 20 years and worked at and managed many gyms for over 10 years. I would happily pay 40, 50, 60 or more dollars a month for a great gym but unfortunately this facility does not warrant that kind of money. read more

Very disappointed in this gym. I haven't been with this gym for even two months and I'm ready have trouble beyond belief. The bathroom always smells disgusting and rarely seems to get cleaned. Also when we originally set up for the month to month payment. Prior to this we weren't explained anything and when we asked it was put off as if it wasn't important or he didn't care. We were there not even to the first month and before they said the first payment would be taken out .. They took the payment okay fine. Then a week and a glad later they took 3x the amount they were suppose to. When I went in to ask he said well it's the "maintenance fee" they do every year. We never received any welcome emails or paperwork or any bills so that we were aware. He was very rude and we decided to call the corporate . They said this wasn't the first time they have had issues but they couldn't refund the money because they didn't have the authority to because it wasn't there policy it was the owner of this specific gym. So now we are having the bank fight for our money. It's a lot of money being stolen from you just for trying to get healthy . Now we are looking at snap fitness which has great reviews read more

I'm a 12 year Trainer and 18 year lifter, and 5 year gym critic... not a big fan. They don't invest much into making it nice and worth the fees. My team of trainers that workout there see their trainers and cringe because they don't correct improper form enough. Not to mention having a fx room for functional fitness if u pay more... we r all there to improve function... you shouldn't have a separate room that costs extra for it if you are a gym that is supposed to provide it. read more

In response to powerhouse replay if your policy is your only to only allow one discount per life time that's what you should advertise instead of saying that it can be used if you have not been a member in the last 12 months as it stated, which we were. thankyou you have a great gym. I am just saving people the headache of dealing with your advertising read more

Please do not join this gym. I tried to cancel my membership for over a month and could not get the owner to call me. When my husband called and said he was interested in membership, the owner got on the phone immediately. They then said they needed 30 days notice to cancel even though I had been calling for a month. They are now harassing me for non-payment saying my membership is overdue. I paid the additional 30 days and owe them nothing. read more

I signed up with the gym using my credit card - a big mistake. They charged me first month and last month and then a month later they charged me an annual maintenance fee. So I had already paid for the last month and when I went to leave the gym they charged me for two more months. The charges never stop. While the gym is nice, they are a rip-off with charges. They will not accept any other payment than CC. I am going with the Saline Rec Center gym. read more
