MERACH has opened early-access pre-orders for the MERACH P16 Dual-Angled Smith Machine, an all-in-one home strength training system the company expects to launch on November 16, 2026. Pre-orders are available on the official MERACH website.

The P16 pairs a switchable vertical and 7-degree Smith rail with a power rack, cable training stations and integrated storage in an approximately 38-square-foot footprint. MERACH positions the system for people building a dedicated training space at home.

Two Smith Angles, One Platform

The P16's central feature is an angled Smith rail, a design MERACH says is more commonly found in commercial gyms. Rather than a single fixed bar path, the system switches between a vertical path and a 7-degree incline, giving users a choice of guided movement patterns for exercises such as squats, presses and rows. The power rack also supports free-weight training.

A quick-switch mechanism allows users to move between the vertical and 7-degree Smith rail settings without tools. The Smith system offers 20 lock positions, while the dual cable system provides 31 pulley height settings and a 2:1 pulley ratio.

“We wanted to bring more of the choices people value in a well-equipped gym into a practical home setup,” said Robert Luo, CEO of MERACH. "The P16 gives users the option to train on a guided Smith rail or use the rack for free-weight lifts, then move to cable and accessory work without needing a room full of separate machines."

Rack, Cable and Accessory Stations

Built around 3-by-3-inch steel uprights, the P16 brings together a power rack, dual-angle Smith machine, cable training stations, a multi-grip pull-up bar, a 360-degree landmine station and lat pulldown capability. According to MERACH, this combination supports compound lifts, cable exercises, pulling movements and bodyweight training within one platform.

MERACH designed the P16 around the practical demands of a home gym. Its approximately 38-square-foot footprint includes integrated plate storage, an accessory pegboard and a vertical barbell holder to help keep equipment organized between workouts.

Safety arms and J-hooks provide additional support for rack-based training. MERACH states the safety arms have been tested under a 500-pound drop load, while the J-hooks have been tested under a 400-pound drop load.

Three Configurations

MERACH has introduced three P16 configurations designed to accommodate different home-gym setups and training preferences:

  • Standard: A plate-loaded design centered on the Smith machine and functional trainer.
  • Pro: Adds aluminum-alloy pulleys, metal cable handles, a dedicated lat pulldown arm and a leg hold-down attachment.
  • Elite: Further adds two integrated, pin-selectable 145-pound weight stacks, providing a more streamlined way to adjust resistance during cable-based exercises.

All three configurations share the P16's core full-body strength-training platform while differing in included components and resistance-adjustment options. The Pro and Elite versions are planned for availability through MERACH's direct-to-consumer website, while the Standard version is planned for select retail partners.

Home-Fitness Expansion

According to MERACH, the P16 reflects the company's broader expansion in the home-fitness category. Building on its existing cardio equipment portfolio, the company is extending its product lineup to support users looking to combine cardiovascular and strength training within a home-gym environment, with additional flexibility through compatible accessories.
