Technogym at Home: Which Equipment Is Actually Worth the Investment?
For Whom/What:
design-conscious home gym
Requirements:
aesthetic integration into a modern home gym setting
smart features and connectivity
build quality and durability
Extra Details:
I’m building out a sleek home gym setup and keep coming back to Technogym. Their design is gorgeous and the connected features are tempting—but the price tag is no joke.
For those of you who’ve used Technogym gear, which ones have truly held up and elevated your workout routine?
Are the aesthetics and digital ecosystem enough to justify the splurge, or are there better options that deliver the same performance without the luxury markup?
Would love to hear how it fits into your space, how often you actually use it, and whether it became a centerpiece or a dust collector.
I went down the same rabbit hole when building out our home gym. I wanted gear that felt professional, but also looked like it belonged in a high-end hotel suite—not something that screamed "garage gym." That’s what drew me to Technogym.
We ended up getting the Technogym Cross Personal (elliptical) and later added the MyRun treadmill.
Here's what made it worth it for us:
Design is unmatched. The Antonio Citterio aesthetic is real. It doesn’t feel like a compromise—it's beautiful, sculptural, and doesn’t kill the vibe of our space. Friends constantly ask what brand it is.
Touchscreen + integration is clean. Everything syncs easily with Apple Watch.
It’s whisper quiet. We live in a two-story home with the gym upstairs and I can run early mornings without waking anyone. Major win.
But!!!
It’s expensive. And I mean luxury appliance expensive. You’re paying for materials, design, and seamless function—not necessarily broader fitness ecosystem stuff like Peloton-style live classes. If you’re not going to use it at least 3–4x a week, it’s probably overkill.
We chose Technogym over something like Tonal or NordicTrack because it was more about a long-term investment and building a gym space that we actually wanted to be in, every day. It’s the difference between a tool you tolerate and one that genuinely motivates you because it’s that well made.
So yeah, if aesthetics, quiet performance, and durability matter as much to you as training functionality—and you’re in this for the long haul—it’s worth the splurge. Just know what you’re buying into (and what you’re not).
Happy to answer specifics if you’re stuck between models.
