The Body Solid GLPH1100 hack squat/leg press combo has been an excellent addition to my home gym. I own a couple other pieces of equipment made by Body Solid. I have never been disappointed by their products or customer service.

BodySolid - leg press/hack squat machine. Took less than 6 hours for me and wifey to uncrate, organize, assemble & cleanup. The package was short some nuts and screws. We ended going to Home Depot rather make this a big issue w/BodySolid. This is our second large piece of equipment and BodySolid ultimately backups their 100% warranty for broken equipment is why I purchased the latest unit from them. The unit works very well so far. I'm pressing eight 45's and like the smoothness and stability. I'm 6'5 and my wife is 5'7" and so the unit is height friendly. The pull pin is in a weird spot but we work with it making adjustments to it under the foot pad. The footprint is much smaller than what you will find in most gyms yet it doesn't want for quality. Overall my wife and I are pleased with the overall performance. The hack squat and calf press works as advertised. Hack squats are smooth and effortless. We hesitate to give the unit 5STARS because (1) we haven't had the unit very long, (2) it lacked minor but necessary pieces and (3) the cushions could have been better quality.
I purchased this leg press at Bayou Fitness several months ago for $960. The leg press arrived in 5 days and came in 5 or 6 boxes. Fortunately, the delivery guy brought the boxes into my house. Most of the assembly process was fairly easy, but one section was very difficult for me because I'm a 120 lb, short female and I had no help. First I separated the small parts, such as screws and washers into small plastic snack or sandwich bags, and labeled them with their assigned numbers. That helped quite a bit during the process. I found the instructions confusing because there are only diagrams, no actual instructions or words. In some cases, I put parts together in the wrong order and had to take them apart and put them back together later. If they would number the diagram to at least show which sections on the page should go together first, it would help. For anyone putting it together, study the diagram for a while to decide which sections must go together first....because it's not obvious right away. The section containing the footplate was by far the most difficult to put together because the foot plate is heavy (which is a good thing) and you have to lift both leg sections and the foot plate at the same time, while bolting into the standing section. Had I been taller and stronger, I probably wouldn't have struggled as much. I used a chair to hold up the footplate while bolting the other sections, but it was very tricky. Once I assembled the leg press, it worked well. I've used it several times a week for the past 5 months and am happy with it. I love the small footprint. It's effective as a leg press, hack squat and calf press. Modifying the machine to change exercises is quick and easy. I've found it doesn't work quite as well as the larger, commercial machines in the gym, but it works well for the price.
I have owned this piece for 3 years and still looks and operates just as well as when it was brand new and I use it a lot,6 days a week between myself and family members and I use with as much weight as it can handle.I highly recommend this piece to anyone looking to add a leg press to their home gym.
I purchased this unit about 2 years ago. Between my wife and I we use this about 4 times a week. She is 5'-3" and I'm 6'-4" and the unit accommodates both heights. Adjustments are easy and straight forward. I load the leg press with 4 100lb plates and 2 45lb plates without any problems. Even though the maximum weight capacity on this leg press is 1,000lbs, I would only be able to get 600 lbs on it since the posts aren't long enough to add more plates. I am using the Body Solid 100lb rubber plates which are really wide so that limits the actual weight that I can load. The unit is very solid and well built and would definitely recommend this unit. Very versatile piece of equipment that works great for leg presses, hack squats and calf raises.
Just love this all around awesome machine...You really get a good work out with 600 or 700lbs on this machine...The leg press will leave you crying the next day after use....And being able to go from leg press to calf press in seconds is just super great...I love super setting them together...If your looking for a leg press with a small footprint and a FULL lifetime warranty...Then look no further because this is just the best on the market for home use....You will pass this machine down to your grandkids....
