I have used this vertical leg press for over a month now and it works great. Anyone who is considering buying this instead of an incline leg press I can tell you it works about the same the only difference I have noticed is that you only need about half the weight to get the same amount of exercise as an incline leg press and the vertical leg press is more like doing a traditional squat. The only drawback is that it can be difficult to put together.

My main problem with this machine is that the provided pins simply don't fit, so I had to improvise with something else. Even then, it's very awkward to remove and replace them during use. The movement of the weight platform is also a bit rough and uneven, and the headrest could have been better positioned or adjustable. At least the assembly wasn't too bad. Even with these issues, it's acceptable for how inexpensive it was.

As long as you realize that you are buying an inexpensive home leg press, it is a good value. It works and feels safe. Responding to criticisms in other reviews: Make sure to set up on a leveled surface or shim base to level. Leave bolts slightly loose until on final position and final tightening. Squeaking stops if you get lubricant down into the lower bushings on the tubes. If headrest feels too far away, you can reposition it closer, using only one hold down bolt. Since it is just a headrest it will be plenty sturdy with just one bolt. You could even custom drill position holes if you needed to. Safety pins are a bit of an inconvenience, but work fine. That's the price you pay for inexpensive. I am 5'8 with long legs an I have plenty of extra motion capability in both directions. Totally satisfied with purchase; although if I get a spare $2500 I would upgrade to a horizontal leverage leg press. Read full review

Love my Powerline Leg Press machine. Does everything I need. Easy to assemble and works very smoothly. Easy to use. For the price, I thought I was getting something made cheaply, not the case. It's very sturdy and easy to use. I'd recommend it to anyone. Very satisfied

It took about 1 hour to put together, make sure you have all your tools handy. It's very comfortable to use, no stress on the neck as with doing squats. I purchase the olympic sleeve adaptors for stability when using with my olympic plates but so far it sees like a great purchase. Vertical also takes up less space. Go for it.
