I think they're only a bad value if you only use the treadmill. If you use a wide variety of the machines and free weights, it feels pretty practical

Yeah it's a practical option for people who want to exercise on the regular, I call it 'terrible value' because you can exercise for free without machines/access to weights if you really want to save some money - body weight exercises, public parks etc.

I enjoy a paid gym membership myself, it saves me a ton of time. I just wouldn't recommend the same to one strapped for cash, 'good' gym memberships aren't cheap where I am (I pay a hundred SGD a month). I should have been more specific.
