Literally every single machines in here are outdated and OLD, no grease on the equipment for smooth movement. All threadmills are so outdated , none of the screens function. I think they only added the new machine I posted after the company change to pure gym. They charged $15 for daily assess , not worth it . Don’t waste your precious time .

Blink has been acquired by pure gym, the migration was anything but smooth, mandatory requirement to have phone app in order to access gym. Key fobs not available. They will not look you up in system if you dont have a phone. Theres no phone number to speak to customer service or management , thisbis only done via email and no one responds. If you want a gym that’s overcrowded with kids were some regularly fail to re-rack weights and staff do not enforce rules and with no access to customer service then this is the place for you… after being a member for 10+ yers ill be taking my business elsewhere …

Management has now switched cancellations to only be approved via an app. Avoid at all costs. The only reason someone does that is to obfuscate the process and take your money. I live in South Orange, I will be more than glad to work this into every possible conversation I have that is even remotely tangential. All you had to do was say "yeah we can cancel that for you"

Walked in to sign up and walked right back out. It smells SO bad I couldn’t inhale, even in the front lobby. Like wet mold, sweaty gym mats, and BO just completely saturating the air. I’ve never smelled that, not even in bigger busier gyms. Is there no ventilation in this place??

Blink in South Orange, NJ - half the time there is no water at all in the gym - not to flush toilets, get water, etc. The last two days, even though my dues are fully paid, they say I cannot go into the gym bc I am not able to download their app on my phone. Even though there is a bar code I have and have used for 5 years it now "doesn't work". No way to enter except by phone app. Blink makes it impossible, they even obscure, how to cancel a membership. I had to find my membership contract to see you need to send a certified mailed envelope to cancel your membership - that is obviously to make it inconvenient. In the last few weeks all the merch/ drinks/ food have disappeared from the shelf & without water it stinks making it feel like a ghost gym. Cant wait till I can get to the post office so I can cancel my whole family membership.

#Blink , you're seriously neglecting this location at Valley Street in South Orange. The equipment is worn out, rusty, broken, neglected. It's been years and everything is getting worse, and this is the responsibility of parent company Blink. The workers at that location can't fix equipment that's already in such a deplorable state. Fix the gym or lower your fees.

I went to Blink not knowing there was one right near me. As a person who is a fitness instructor and has been in the fitness industry for many years, I feel this Blink location is fine. I go when it opens (I like to get my workout in early). I found it to be clean, equipment is fine, friendly people and staff and it is a good size. I see people saying it is crowded. Any gym is crowded during peak hours. The non peak hours, it works well for me. No one is really there. I am more than satisfied.

Was considering this location but given all the mostly bad reviews I won’t be signing up here. The gym looks extremely too small for its location of large population, parking access. Need to find a larger gym space. The Parsippany Blink which is closing seems to be twice the size and has 6 leg squats stations where as this has only two!

I’m so so so confused by all the negative reviews … I absolutely love this location. It’s better than all the other locations close to me.. I drive out of my way to come to this one. Maybe they’ve changed since all the negative reviews? The staff is always so friendly, greeting us when we walk in, of all the times I’ve gone it’s been crowded like once or twice but even then it didn’t affect my workout. my workouts here are easy and peaceful. Very clean, music at a good volume, bathrooms are clean, love the workout mat area… I love it here.

I am a fan of the Blink gyms in general but this club takes away all the joys of fitness. The place is always overcrowded. The equipment is not well maintained -- even something as simple as the labels identifying the weight of the plates are missing. Staff is loud and intrusive. And while of course Blink cannot be held responsible for gym etiquette in general, I have rarely seen such disregard for other members as I have seen and felt here. Choose another location... I have.

The air conditioning has not been working for a few months now and it's frequently hot and humid in there without a single fan in place while they get the AC figured out. I find it miserable to work out there in the heat without AC and despite multiple complaints to the management the AC is still not working correctly. Evenings are extremely crowded and without any circulating air it's very uncomfortable. When the gym first opened years ago we were very happy with it.

Do not frequent this location the Management is horrible and not accommodating ,or pleasant whatsoever, they will give you the run around just to cancel even though it is specifically for medical reasons.The gym itself is not clean or properly sanitized , a lot of machines do not work and the parking is horrible . Do your self a favor and avoid this particular location and blink fitness all together . Horrible service and horrible location to say the least.

Super convenient location, but it’s always overcrowded with kids, kids hanging out on equipment, kids eating fast food on equipment, kids taking tons of weights and never putting them back, kids taking naps on equipment. It feels like walking into a daycare, it’s stressful trying to get a workout in, and I’ve tried different times of days but always the same case.

Gets the job done for the most part. Wish it had more updated machines but overall ok. Biggest issue is the parking, that's shared with a stop & shop grocery store and also the fact that there's a high school 1 block away and the kids there flood the gym at certain times making it impossible sometimes to get a workout when they hob the machines in groups.

Today I attempted to work out but could because of the awful smell. I am not sure if it was a septic tank that needed to be fixed but, I felt uncomfortable breathing in the poop smell this morning! I asked if there was a manager on staff I could speak to address it and the guy at the front desk said β€œNo, there isn’t a manager coming in at all today”. This is the second time this has happened. I don’t care how cheap the memberships are, this is unsanitary and I really disappointed. Going to get a membership somewhere else.

This Blink location stays overcrowded. The equipment is dirty, and rusty. The rubbers on the hand part of the equipment is torn and hanging off. They even have tape on some of the equipment holding pieces together. I thought it would be taken care of better because of the location. There has been trash in front of the building which hasn't been cleaned up yet and oh the TVs that's connected to the treadmills you will be lucky if you find one that's working. I reported these concerns and all they say is an order was put in for the repairs and the cable is not working for the tvs. UNBELIEVABLE.

WAY too crowded and a tiny gym without much equipment. I went at 3pm for a workout and went out the the main area and every bench and every piece of equipment had someone on it. I even waiting for about 10 minutes and there was literally nothing to use much less do my normal circuit like I do at other gyms. Way too many people for that space.

I am thinking of canceling my membership, the space is not very big and outside its too dark, for a woman to go alone after 5pm that it's already dark I don't feel comfortable, it could solve the problem by installing more lights and fixing one that has been blinking all the time for several months and no one fixes it.
I know that the parking lot of the gym is between the Stop&shop and CVS I don't know who should fix it but I think that for everyone's safety, lighting should be a priority.

Some equipments have been broken for a long time and they are not fixed either, these are some of the things that are making me uncomfortable to continue.πŸ˜”

Not a bad gym at all. I go here because I live rather close. The place is pretty small so you find yourself waiting on other people to get equipment; also the place gets packed easily. Outside of that the gym itself is clean and neat. I give it a 3 out of 5.

I love blink fitness and it is convenient for me to be there since it is only 4 mins driving from my house . They should replace some of the cardio equipment with some updated lifting machines . PLEASE put a note for a limited time on each machine it is very annoying to have people coming to the gym and sit on one machine for 30 mins to have a phone call or text, some of us actually want to workout and we cant . So I happened to go to the other one on central avenue because they have more machines and a more respectful gym community. i have been coming to this this location less and less . Most of the staff is friendly except for 2 or 3 of them who act like they were forced to be there .

Updated review from my last, which was also positive!

Lena at the front desk is so great! So welcoming and I love coming to the gym and getting to see her.

Shakir is my new trainer and he has been so great in motivating me and pushing me to my full potential. Last year was my first year of working out and now its a new year. We are working hard and he always makes sure I am comfortable.

Would definitely recommend the gym. Some may argue there is minimal supplies, but it's all how you gym. There is tons of equipment and you can definitely make the changes you want to see. I'm so happy I committed to the gym and have such a positive environment to come to almost everyday!

It’s Saturday Oct 9th 8:18am! I’ve been waiting since 730am to get in the gym but no one is here. The gym is suppose to open at 7am. There are others who has been waiting since 7am. This is unprofessional! We all pay our monthly fees on time. What do we expect in return? Working machines abs access to those machines. Blink should know when they’re locations aren’t opened in time, maybe send someone else. This is horrible. By the way it’s 8:22am and we are still waiting outside in the cold..

Visited Blink in South Orange as my regular gym in Union is still closed due to power issues after Tropical Storm Ida. I liked that there is a consistency in the look and cleanliness of Blink gyms. However, the Union gym is much larger and equipment is more spread out due to more space. The setup is definitely a bit tighter in the South Orange gym. I go early, just after opening, so it wasn’t crowded, but I wouldn’t want to be there during a busier time. Other than that, I had no issues working out at the South Orange location.

I was a Blink member for 2 years or so, and lately have been dropping in as my wife’s guest usually when we need to sneak in a run when the weather is rainy or overly hot.

I think of Blink as not the cheapest gym but the best overall value and experience considering how they do not (so far as my own experiences go) hide extra charges or cancellation fees or make it a hassle to do business.

I appreciate how each Blink location I tend to visit stays pretty clean, with equipment usually back in place. It’s especially nice that they also have a good mix of available equipment ranging from the classic gym machines to ones like air assault bikes and rowers which are more commonly used in the training I follow.

This particular location shares parking space with a Stop & Shop which is convenient for post-gym groceries!

TLDR: TROY IS THE BEST TRAINER!!!!
Blink is great. At first, I wanted a gym that had more natural light, but ultimately my focus was and is my health. After suffering an injury that made me unable to walk for 6 weeks and a load of physical therapy, I was finally able to get back into the gym. Struggling to get in a rhythm with my first trainer, I switched trainers. Troy is AMAZING!!! Not only does he personalize your workouts and help you learn how to create your own and target certain areas, but he encourages you while you're at the gym on your own. I see him at the gym and if he's not there, I can text him for motivation or ask questions. It's really great because I have constant support system. Other than my hard work, his way of training is the reason I have come as far as I have. Even in two weeks after the bike, my legs were even more shredded. I have been more consistent than my entire life and I am very glad with the value and the cost of this gym! The staff are welcoming and friendly and really have cultivated a nice relationship as I see them everyday!

This Gym is Really nice, specious and have everythjng. However, there is a trick if you try to cancel your subscription they will charge you. They charge me two month extra to cancel the membership such a rip off. In addition they charged me 55$ annual for the year of 2020. Remind you the gym was closed for almost the whole year, so why you charge maintenance fee?????? very bad Customer service

They keep charging my account even after requesting a temporary freeze until we are certain COVID won't spread as wild fire indoor. They have asked me to send them email as proof I had requested the temporary freeze which I did at least 5 times but they are very nonresponsive to my inquiries. Be careful, check your credit cards for false charges... No one at Blink cares they just want to cash in...

Blink is the biggest scam targetting the middle and lower middle class people, they play with your membership agreement. Please read before you sign-up. I tried cancelling up few months ago and they continue to charge me. Spoke to 6 different persons explaining. The staff people are ignorant of how their system works. I was forced to go to the facility to Cancel again. This time, they ask me additional prorated fee, absolute scam before cancelling. Watch out people, pay a little extra and find a better gym. They remind me of Bally's. These guys will go out of business soon. Too bad customer service.

I have been waiting for a supervisor to speak with me no response as of yet. I had made 5 attempts over the phone 3 times, online and i even send a survey. I wouldn't refer my friends or families to a place like that. Poor communication skills.

At the location in East Orange, NJ, some of the staff and management are rude and complain too much. They will cancel your membership at will and make you feel unwelcome. I suggest you find a different location.

My GF and I joined at this location for a year and cancelled in November. I signed the paperwork, paid the last month, December and left. They still charged me a $22 monthly fee in January! After telling them that I cancelled and was charged, they charged me again $22 in February! I called them back to tell them to refund the money, and to stop charging, only to find that they charged me a YEARLY $52 fee two days after my GF was literally screaming at them for not cancelling our membership properly! I had to call my credit company to block them and create a disputed for 3 illegal charges!!!

Don’t bother trying to join this gym because they’ll screw you out of your money when you try to cancel! It’s like a scam to squeeze out more and more $$ before you go...and they’re Corporate Membership Services Dept is completely useless and untrained. Every time my GF called, they β€œcouldn’t find the paperwork”...and then, after screaming and yelling at them, the cancellation paperwork mysteriously appears! They’re taught to try to make you think that you didn’t cancel properly to justify the excessive charges. But we were prepared with scans of all of the documents. That’s the only way to get them to admit they are wrong!

We even wrote a letter to the Manager of Membership Services and Experience, Kaitlyn Liburd. No response at all. Not a single reply for assistance. This is how they treat customers.

So, my advice: Don’t join! And if you already did, make copies of everything you sign! Because they’ll try to convince you that the paperwork doesn’t exist. And keep dates of every activity!!! They won’t care to help you, only charge you. It’s borderline fraud!

Bare bones gym that has everything you need for a meaningful workout. No smoothie bar, classes or other bells and whistles. Just weights, bikes, treadmills.

Very inexpensive, lots of equipment, friendly staff. How clean is it. Who can tell. Seems clean. Most folks mind their own business, i like that. Music is good, not over whelming. Atmosphere is positive and pleasant

I’ve been going there consistently as a gym membership guest with my boyfriend (love that they give you that option). High quality equipment with enough weights, a solid free weight section and positive employees. I have a retro membership but I’m considering switching over to blink.

The only reason I give this place 2 stars is because they have good equipment. However, some of the staff needs to trained on how to treat their clients. A lot of back talk about clients to the front staff from trainers. The Personal Trainers are supposed to be helpful and motivating; however, some of the trainers here are very judgemental and get VERY upset if you miss an appointment or show up late. Even if you call to reschedule...Meanwhile they could care less as to what your struggles may be and that they get paid no matter what. I found this place a disappointment and not helpful in my weight loss process. I have now joined a new gym.

If you want to cancel they charge a fee. They charge a $50 fee within the first two month including the monthly fee no matter what plan you have. They make it very difficult to get out of the contract. Be careful.

I've been to so many blinks, and this is the best Blink location. It has friendly staffs knows how to greet and are not lazy unlike the other locations(seriously), clean, wipes and toilet paper always filled, not overly crowded even though its a smaller blink. It's overall functional; I get there and can work out comfortably.

Buyer beware!! if your son or daughter is in their senior year of high school and goes off to college you must go there in person and cancel membership. They make it difficult for your kid to do this on the phone or by email. They need you to go there in person. I did that and canceled for my son, then 13 months later got a letter from a lawyer for past due balance. When I canceled in person all those months ago, I received a letter showing I ended membership, they never mentioned a past due balance. Kind of hard to locate a cancelation form all these months later, so I just paid the collection due. Corporate Blink is a ripoff. Oh and of course the lawyer/collection agency of Aldous & Ass never answers their phone.

Great place, but need better supervision on the machine side: People sit and read Kindles, text, sit and do nothing for 10 minutes etc. Other day, young girl refused to stop doing Xfit exercises by the adductor machine (for almost 20 minutes) Multiple sets of lifting a barbell then sitting doing nothing on th machine. Shouldn't be allowed!!

Where do I start. Small Gym, No classes, Lack of equipment, etc. Don’t be fooled when signing up! There is a contract and when you cancel there is a fee. This place sucks !

LA Fitness is way better and they have closer locations and more amenities.
