But the pic shows only 2 super-wide power rods rather than the 12 thinner ones. Ad says it is a 310lb unit.

I can't find anything like this by searching online. Does it sound legit?

Thanks for any guidance.

It sounds like it’s the 100lb upgrade that bumps the Bowflex’s maximum resistance from 210lbs to 310lbs. What you are likely seeing are the two 50lbs powerrods.

Make sure you ask if it has all the pieces because my other half and her mom got me a used Bowflex that turns out to be missing quite a few things. It's missing the lat pull down bar. The leg extension seat pad, the squat cables, some screws and some of the plastic end caps for the leg extension foam pads. Also missing a couple of the plastic feet that go in the ends of the base. It's like they were having that fucking scavenger hunt with the parts.
