Our take on the Marcy Smith Cage MWM-988

The Marcy Smith Cage MWM-988 is a home gym that combines a Smith machine bar, adjustable safety catches, a cable system and a multi-station press arm in one steel frame. It supports up to 300 lbs on the weight bar and 600 lbs total on the bench, including the user, so it suits light-to-moderate lifting rather than heavy powerlifting. The cage is large: 85 inches tall and 79 inches wide, so it needs a dedicated room with high ceilings. At $699.99 at Walmart as of November 5, 2026, it sits at the low end of its recent range across the three stores that list it new.

Questions and answers

Is the Marcy MWM-988 worth it?
It is a good value if you want a Smith machine plus cables in one frame and lift moderate weights. At $699.99 at Walmart as of November 5, 2026, it costs less than buying a separate Smith machine and cable tower.
How much weight can the bar hold?
The weight bar is rated for 300 lbs of plates. The bench supports 600 lbs total, including the user and the weights.
Does it come with weight plates?
No. The MWM-988 is plate-loaded, so you supply your own plates. The listing's mention of a 150-lb stack refers to a different Marcy home gym, not this cage.
How much space do I need?
Plan for about 85 inches of height and 79 inches of width for the cage, plus room for the bench and for loading plates. A garage or basement with a high ceiling works best.
Can I use my own Olympic bar and bench?
The cage includes its own Smith bar and bench. An outside Olympic bar will not fit the guided track, so use the included bar for Smith movements.
When is it cheapest?
Prices vary by store. The current best new price is $699.99 at Walmart as of November 5, 2026, which is near the low end of its recent range.
