Planet Fitness – Taunton

Not for anyone serious about exercising, Small, poor quality equipment and staff that could only benefit a beginner, very annoying as well. Im appauled at how ill equipped and incomptent evey single PF i have ever walked into, Just goes to show you get what you pay for NOTHING

This gym is good for basic cardio and weights. Wish they provided classes. The price is perfect if you’re looking for simplicity. I like it because it is clean and people keep to themselves. The employees are friendly and always willing to help. The locker rooms are clean and the air is well circulated.
Hate to see parents bring their small children to work out wit them. Children do not belong on elipticals! They are more apt to get hurt, especially if the parent is not supervising (hint, hint bring your children to the playground for exercise, not the gym).

What I’m wondering is why this gym continues to advertise for such cheap monthly rates if there’s no more room for these new members. I understand that after NYE its peoples resolution to go back to the gym, to get into shape etc etc. but that only last so long. And the members who always go to the gym on a regular basis are the ones that get bothered by this nonsense.
This gym is always pretty busy. For awhile when I was unemployed I would go during the day thinking there wouldn’t be a lot of people working out, well I was wrong. Those people must have had the same idea as me, because that place gets real busy during the day. But come 4pm, that place gets so packed that your lucky to find a machine. And the first two months after NYE, forget it. People are literally waiting behind people on machines until they get off so they can hop right on. Then there are all these new high school kids hanging out in clusters by machines shooting the shit. Lets be serious, did you come to the gym to workout or is this the new local hangout since the mall is no longer cool!!! Annoying.
Another thing I don’t understand is the once a month pizza and the monthly or is it weekly donuts and coffee!!! We’re there to workout, don’t put all these awful carbs in front of us! Plus the pizza makes the gym smell like there are 1000 people in their with BO. Awful. LOL.
The machines are all pretty good and still in good condition. Tanning booths work okay, not great but okay. Time to time I’ll go if I want a little color but I can never get dark going using them. Nice flat screen TVs line the cardio area. Bathrooms are usually always clean. Staff here is pretty awesome, always pleasant and nice and making sure things are clean and products are stocked.
I think PF needs to open up another franchise in the area because this one has already outgrown the space. I like this gym, I just hate how ridiculously busy it gets. My workout is long enough, therefore I don’t want to be adding on time from waiting in line for machines or weights.

Affordable and I can find a machine easily! I love this location, but I’m no longer living at home in Raynham. I’m planning on transferring to Dedham (which, if you have the black card account which I highly recommend, you can transfer locations), but this one is spacious, easy to get to, and I never once had any issues with waiting for a machine. Lots of nice TVs, and tanning booths and massage chairs. No fitness/​aerobic classes or any of that, as it’s pretty no frills. But for the price, $ 10 for standard (I think) and $ 20 for black card (unlimited tanning, bring a friend, ½ price cooler drinks, 10 passes for other locations, ability to change locations, etc — highly recommend you go this route) it’s an awesome deal. Much more affordable than Raynham Fitness for sure!
