IMHO he should get the top one. As a gym user, I think the bottom option is too "busy" for a commercial setting. While it would be good for a home gym, I think in a busy gym the smith machine should focus on barbell moves rather than the cable stack stuff that the bottom one seems to have. Just my 2 cents!
