TDS4-Way Hip Sled to use as Leg Press, HACK Squat, Calf Raise to give a Full Lower Body Workout Unit has DLX. Pads, Wide Adj. Deck Plates, 8 Wheels for Flawless Movement

I bought this because I haven't been to a gym in years and a leg press is one of the things I missed most about the gym. The whole sled doesn't take up much space and fits in nicely with the rest of my equipment: Marcy Smith machine, pull-up and dip rack, climber machine, and bowflex dumbell set, and this is all in my 2 car garage with my tool cabinets and there's still room to park a small car. The machine is so smooth, I was blown away. This is because of the roller wheels the rack rides on obviously but it made every leg press I've used in the past, from what I can recall, don't compare to this machine. It's extremely well designed and built and the shipping company did an outstanding job of getting in touch and keeping me updated throughout the shipping process.I'm using this machine mainly for the leg press and hack squat movement currently. I'm not sure if I'm doing the pushing movement wrong but it seems to be an awkward position to use. I also had to buy 6 more 45 pound plates because I only had just over 500 pounds of weight in my whole setup and you really need to have a lot of plates if you plan on using this machine for mass building. It handled the 500 pounds I have like it was nothing so I'm sure it will be fine approaching its full capacity of 1,000 pounds. And I'm not saying it's 'easy' as I've been working out for most of my life and am 48 now so 500 is a good working weight for me, I just know that I could work with more and still feel comfortable on this machine.If you're on the fence about buying one you should probably go ahead and get it because Elmira barbell told me they only had a few left in the warehouses because of the supply chain mess. You will not be disappointed in putting your money on this machine for a home gym! Absolutely worth every penny and will pay for itself over time.

Pros: The product arrived quickly in 3 large boxes on a pallet. The item is almost at the commercial grade level, sturdy and strong. I am proud to have it and no longer need to spend money on a gym membership. Cons: Though I correctly assembled the item, it took a very long time, most of the day. This was due to instructions that were mostly pictures, no written instructions aside for labeling of the screws and items. This became confusing at times as there were a couple of pictures of screws and washers that were not labeled on the diagram; which led me to have to guess/assume which washer or screw to use. Thank God I guessed correctly, but you should not have to guess when you pay this much. They should have had pictures and written sentences, as black/white pictures can be misinterpreted at times. Alternatively, they could of had step by step instructions through the app Bilt. And there were no supplied tools for the assembly like many products in include. Overall I would still recommend the purchase just be prepared for frustrating sometimes confusing directions.

The machine is great quality, other reviews complained about the safety stop, I actually like it because I workout until failure and the safety helps if I run out of gas. Dislike: While standing it’s difficult to grab the lock bars. I’m going to hire a welder to make a reverse C handle. The foot plates are not wide enough. Overall happy with the purchase

Love it. Assembly took about 2-1/2 hours. I can't say enough about how great a workout i get from this machine. The assembly instructions are a bit tough to get through but all the pieces were there all the bolts packaged nicely. I was a little concerned about the strength of the platform you stand on when doing hack squats but it works as it should. Being 6' tall the leg press would be good for a person of just about any height. FYI when you go to install the sled/weight carriage piece use 2 people because until that part is installed you can not tighten the frame bolts completely and the rails want to spread so be cautious. It is a perfect addition to my weight room.

I really love this leg press. Assembly didn't take very long and the sled itself is already out together which is a big time saver. The machine is very solid and very smooth. I ham very happy with it.

I purchased this leg press machine and was very impressed with its craftsmanship and effectiveness for the money.. It has a multi use feature for sitting and standing leg press to give each workout movement maximum results. The only negative point l want to mention is the assembly process isn't straight forward and quite frankly cumbersome and very time consuming. You will definitely need a second person to assist in the assembly process .
