When I joined Boom I told them outright, I am moving for graduate school, and do not want a hassle canceling my membership in 6mo. They told me it would be no problem. It couldn't be further from the truth! First, the business card they gave me had the WRONG fax number on it (yes you have to fax you cancellation to TEXAS, since that where 'membership' is...) I did this BEFORE the 15th of the month, so that I would not be charged for the next month. Of course the fax did not go through, so I went back to Boom and demanded that they fax it. Chris the manager is horrible person to deal with. He didn't apologize for GIVING OUT business cards WITH THE WRONG FAX, then he grudgingly faxed my papers to the TX office. They FORWARD dated my papers to AFTER the 15th (to charge me an additional month), and then REJECTED my cancellation! I have been struggling to cancel my membership now for three months, even though I'm 2 states away. BOOM FITNESS IS A TERRIBLE GYM TO JOIN, IT'S BEEN A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE, AND MAKES ME SERIOUSLY WEARY OF JOINING A NEW GYM ****BESIDES NEEDING TWO FORMS OF PROOF THAT YOU HAVE MOVED (CERTIFIED MAIL ALONG WITH YOUR CANCELLATION 30 DAYS IN ADVANCE) BE CAREFUL OF THEIR INCREDIBLE DISHONESTY ALSO, IF YOU THINK INJURY WILL GET YOU OUT OF THEIR CONTRACT, THE CONTRACT ACTUALLY SAYS THAT THEY CAN GET A SECOND OPINION ABOUT YOUR HEALTH CONDITION!!! BEFORE YOU CAN CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP! Avoid Boom, pay a little extra for good membership service, You'll thank yourself for avoiding Chris and the massive headache that is Boom Fitness
Pros: Price/Location
Cons: THEY WILL CHEAT YOU OUT OF YOUR MONEY, YOU CANNOT CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP, CHRIS THE MANAGER IS HORRIBLE, YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH TEXAS TO CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP

If your considering joining a gym check out Boom Fitness. The gym has all of the same ammenities as equinox and is much cheaper. The equipment is all new, the facility is always clean, and from my experiences the staff has always been pleasent and very helpful. This club goes further than most, one example is that they have an outside company come in to clean and inspect all of the equipment. I feel better knowing that they care about the members safety on the equipment. Anytime a piece breaks it is repaired extremely fast, which makes it easy to find a piece of equipment during peek hours. Boom fitness gets an A+
Pros: The facility is clean, the staff is great, and the equipment looks and works great all the time,
Cons: wish there were more locations (only 2)
