Exercise Machines recommendations?

[yesthattom]

I'm considering getting an exercise machine. What I always hear about them is that people buy one, use it for a month, and then it becomes a rack to hang clothes on.

Anyone here have an exercise machine that they used beyond 6 months? Still use it today?

Strictly speaking, this isn't an exercise machine, but it occured to me while I was working out today that I do have home equipment, and that might relevant to your question.

I bought expensive (but high-quality, durable and comfortable to use) free weights 18(!!??!) years ago. (Holy crap, my weights can vote.) I bought a padded, inclineable weight bench 8? or so years ago. Still using both of them. Pig iron.
