30 to 40 Hz, adjustable in 1 Hz increments. That is eleven selectable frequencies. The MOVE covers the same band with three set points, the my8 runs 30-45 Hz in 1 Hz steps, and the pro5 runs 25-50 Hz in 1 Hz steps.

Yes. The unit we sell carries a 5 in. touchscreen LCD console and a lower repeat button, and it steps frequency by 1 Hz with a nine-minute timer. Earlier my5 machines had three set frequencies, a 30 or 60 second timer and a button display. If you are cross-shopping against an older listing, those are the four things that changed.

A control mounted low on the machine that runs your last session again. It saves reaching up to the console between sets. It is one of the two features Power Plate calls out as new on the current revision, the other being the 5 in. touchscreen.

Up to nine minutes on the countdown timer. There is also a secondary timer on the console, and four quick start programs covering flexibility, core, strength and massage.

300 lb / 136 kg, the same as the MOVE. Above the my5, the my8 is rated to 350 lb and the pro5 to 400 lb.

The machine is 27 x 38.5 x 58 in. / 68 x 98 x 148 cm and the platform is 27 x 23 x 10 in. Allow headroom above the 58 in. column and enough depth to stand clear of a wall. Some older listings gave the depth as 36 in. and the platform as 27 x 28 in.; both are wrong against the current specification.

153 lb / 69 kg assembled and 178.2 lb / 81 kg in its packaging. Plan the route into the room before delivery day.

Yes. A remote control ships with the my5, alongside the touchscreen console and the lower repeat button. The my8 and the pro5 do not include a remote.

Hand straps in a set of two, a rubber mat set of three, the remote control, instructions for use, an exercise poster, the power cord and dust covers for both the column and the platform.

AC 100-240V, drawing 160-320 VA in operation. The unit is CE marked. Power Plate publishes no other certification for this model, and we do not add any.

White Glove. Freight delivery with a scheduled appointment and installation, which is standard from the my5 upward. The Personal and MOVE are the only two platforms that ship by UPS.

In the United States, 3 years hardware, 1 year electronics, 1 year labor. Outside the United States, Power Plate publishes 2 years on all three.

Two settings, published as Low and High. Power Plate gives no millimetre value for either on any platform in this range, so we cannot quote one. Frequency is the figure that is published precisely on this model.

The my8 adds video programming on its touchscreen, retractable proMotion cables, a 30-45 Hz band and a 350 lb user limit, and it weighs 245 lb. The my5 stops at 40 Hz and 300 lb, includes a remote that the my8 does not, and is nearly a hundred pounds lighter. Both come with a column, a touchscreen, White Glove delivery and the same warranty.
