Planet Fitness

You need to start doing a better job of repairing the machines. Every day, there’s someone mopping and vacuuming while the gym is open, yet the same machines have been ripped and torn for literally three months. Bacteria can build up on these surfaces, and simply wiping down the rubber isn’t enough to clean it properly. I pointed this out to a staff member months ago, and still nothing has been done. Now let’s talk about the ellipticals. One of these days, an older person is going to get hurt. I go through five machines before finding one that isn’t broken, with no signs indicating which ones are out of order. This gym has really gone downhill since I first joined. It’s a pretty simple request to repair broken equipment so that the insides of the machines aren’t exposed. I even have to wear a hoodie just to avoid contact with these areas. The pictures below show how it’s been for many, many months. I visited the Belleville location recently, and not a single machine there was damaged. All pictures below are different machines. We pay to have a proper gym. ***response to the managements comment. You say to bring to your attention and you can give an eta on when the repairs will take place lol lol . I brought it to your workers attention three months ago. Second, you are never here. Or at least you never come out of your office. That’s part of the problem . If you walked your gym floor we as the customers would never even have to bring these machines to your attention. I literally come here six days a week for the last year and have seen you one time.

One of if not thee best planet fitness I’ve been to in the tri state area. Clean, well maintained and my favorite perk tons of natural light!

Oh boy where do I even begin the minute I walk into this planet fitness is feels like a breath of fresh air with the amazing greeting I get from the front desk! Steven, Kayla, and Younse always give me an amazing greeting and ask how my day is. Even offered to spot me when I needed help! This planet fitness is a must go to in NJ. Best gym ever! I not only made gains here but a family as well!

Updated in July 2024: I was the first Yelp Elite member who reviewed Clifton PF and gave 5-stars. It is my home gym even though I have a few PFs near home, since I saw its value over distance as I noted in my previous Google review. I have been noticing the maintenance of this facility deteriorating over time. My wife kept complaining that the sinks in the women's room were so dirty, one of them was covered with a black plastic, and used papers on the floor. One of the urinals is out of order in men's room, including the same condition as the former. Staff at the front desk are usually kind, but for some reason, I see serious issues in the maintenance and cleaning routine. Years back, I saw a senior staff teaching younger staff how to clean the equipment and the space including the mirrors and sinks, which I don't witness anymore. I wanted to post some photos but decided not to, since they look filthy and might not be appropriate for others. I hope these issues are addressed in timely matter. —————————— Original Review: I had to visit most of Planet Fitness within 10 miles, due to my home gym's unexpected closure. Each PF has its own pros and cons(also individually owned and maintained), but Clifton PF at Bloomfield Ave is a Gem of the Gym! Not sure if the multi-story gym layout was designed for the facility or repurposed i am architect who did some fitness center as well), it allows for not only upscale feeling of entry but also functional distinction; the upper floor workout area gets enough sunlight and outdoor views, while black card member / shower/ locker/restroom area below are very functionally designed. With well-thought big and small plants, interior light temperature and background music, the black member area is a place where you want to relax after working out or even before starting your day. I am happy to be the one who can share serendipity after gym shopping. I switched, and now PF Clifton at Bloomfield Ave is my home gym.

I have been going to this gym as a Black Card member for a month now. And I have to say that , it's a Great place to workout! When you come in, the people that work at the front desk are Great! They are very friendly and Helpful! The place is very clean and all the machines and equipment are very good. I really like the Black card Spa area! The massages and tanning are really good! And I really like the fact that I could bring my wife or son as my Black card guest , anytime! So if you're looking for a Great place to workout at a very good price! This is the place for you! Try it! You won't be disappointed!
