I live outside of the country and was visiting family in the area for a couple of months and needed a gym for the short term. I am so glad I picked this gym over others in the area! Really big space, great selection of equipment and very well maintained. Members are generally polite and courteous. Everyone seems to be good about cleaning equipment after use and racking weights. Staff are friendly. Definitely recommend.

The Edge Fitness Club in Hamden, CT., in my humble opinion, is an excellent gym for people of all fitness levels for many reasons.The first reason(s) I choose The Edge in Hamden is because of the employees that work there. From the general manager to the front desk associates and personal trainers; they're all wonderful people that have your best interests at heart. They're friendly, engage in conversation, always greet you with a smile, and simply want to see you achieve your fitness goals.The second reason I choose The Edge in Hamden is because the gym is well stocked with modern equipment. They have a wide range of strength based machines as well as a large dumbbell selection.The third reason i choose The Edge in Hamden is because of its esthetically pleasing and spacious design. As a seasoned gym-goer, it makes sense to me just as much as it would make sense to someone just starting their fitness journey.If you're reading this review and wondering if the Edge in Hamden, CT. is the right gym for you, trust me when I say it can be if you make it that way. Because I made it that way, and if I can, you can, too.

I recently just moved to Hamden, & I was trying to figure out if I should sign up with this gym. After the initial visit, I had no doubt in my mind that I should. The staff were friendly & Christian R is a very humble & down to earth gentleman. This location has everything I need & I couldn’t wish for a better atmosphere.

I was in CT for FMLA and picked up 3 separate 1 month memberships while there. Edge in Hamden was absolutely fantastic. The members were friendly, desk staff were always friendly and cheerful, and 100% ready to help. And the atmosphere throughout the gym is bright, well spaced out and accommodating. I'm an older guy (54) and been lifting heavy since I was 12. On top of that, I'm an ER nurse and been in healthcare for 30+ years. Couple that with a lifetime of partying hard and fighting in my youth (not to mention continually dealing with ER violence) and my body has been through the wringer, pummeled to hell and back. As a result, my shoulders are sort of shot. Yes, there's a point to this - staff member Angela is an angel. She walked me through the free 1 hr PT session offered after signing up and helped me focus on what I need to do in order to make sure I warm up enough. Her guidance was a big help and her demeanor and professionalism were absolutely top notch. So - thank you. :)

Peter is great! Visiting from out of town and Peter hooked it up with a free session and pre workout. Had a great workout. The facilities were clean and lots of great equipment. Will definitely be back!

The gym is great, but the ABC Fitness Solutions, LLC that owns it has the worst customer service I’ve ever dealt with, not worth joining the gym over it IMO. Good luck canceling if you move etc.

Hamden’s Edge fitness is clean. The staff always greets you at the door with a smile and says have a nice day on the way out. The clientele is diverse and pleasant.

I take all my classes with Latoya Armstrong. She is the best teacher I’ve ever had because she mixes things up every class so it doesn’t get boring and always gives us encouragement.

Barre with Latoya is always a great class! She always has something different each day to keep us engaged. This class has been the best for my core strength and overall flexibility.

The gym is fine.One star because of the 3rd party billing company you guys use for some bizarre reason. I would suggest not using this gym simply because of the scam of a company ABCfitness solutions, the billing company used. Not only was my membership rate increased (at a rate NOT outlined in my signed agreement), there is no way to get ahold of ABCfitness solutions customer service. You can call their line, and it's just an automated system that can tell you what you owe.You can email them and get canned responses over and over again, threatening how they'll send your account to collections and that they want to "work with you" to resolve the issue, even though the only "working with you" they do is send you canned responses, over and over again.Finally, after TWENTY-SIX EMAILS over 3 weeks back and forth, I finally got a response from a human saying "Sorry!!! we're just the third party billing company, any charges are done through your home club we have nothing to do with it."Meanwhile the front desk staff said "we dont control billing, contact this company [abcfitness]."Absolutely AWFUL company, you guys need to detatch yourselves from this billing company. I will be telling friends NOT to use this gym specifically because of the nightmare that is ABCfitness "solutions".

It ha everything I needed. Clean and organized. Price was ok. There are cheaper options but I think it's alright. Schedule is a bit tight but I guess that's most of the area here.

I came to get a membership at the Edge Fitness club in Hamden today. Christian Rich was super helpful, made me feel welcome and explained all the membership options thoroughly. He was kind and patiently answered all my questions. Overall, this seems to be a fantastic gym, with helpful people and I’m excited to workout everyday. Christian Rich, you’re awesome! Thank you for a great experience as I start my fitness journey with you all.

This edge is probably the worst when it comes to customer service. The girls are constantly flirting or on their phones. The equipment is always broken and when I reported this problem to a member , he just said "okay" and went back to texting on his phone and then theirs this girl who is always sitting on the counter top in front of the check in desk, I'm not even sure if she works there. Overall, any other location is better!

Christian Rich was so awesome he took care of all my concerns and was very helpful, he honestly made me feel comfortable even after talking about my weight which to me is a very uncomfortable topic even after my weight gain. He offered me a one on one session with a trainer to be able to assist my needs and goals and assist with showing me how to utilize some of the machines at the gym. I am so happy he is working at the gym, and look forward to more conversation… and the plus was the P&b shake!! Yay thank you for being so awesome!!

I just signed up to join the gym after many years of pure lack of motivation. It feels good to be here after my encounter with Christian Rich, one of the gym associates. This guy is friendly, personable, straight to the point, and most of all has a positive attitude and the right mindset. Looking forward to claiming healthy habits again here at fitness edge!
