TDS 4-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.

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.

Great machine, just what I was looking for. I would have given it an overall 5 stars if it wasn't for the freight shipper holding onto the unit for 10 days before delivering it.

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.

It broke my heart when a back injury stopped my ability to do squats safely. This hip sled allows for Hack Squats, front Squats, and back Squats safely. It is very solid (especially when it is let down on your foot), and the action is smooth. This has made a wonderful addition to my home gym and I fully recommend it. Overall, it took an hour for myself and my father to put it together with no trouble with instructions. The only delay was when I put a piece on backwards and had to redo things.

This was the final piece I purchased for my home gym during the pandemic. I had been looking at it for 9 months and seeing it come in and out of availability I finally pulled the trigger to buy it and am so glad that I did. I am 46 years old and had my hip replaced 2 years ago. I wanted to be able to workout my legs, but was weary about squatting. This has been great for giving me the workout I’ve needed. I’m 6’2” and have not had any difficulty using the sled in all the different uses. I’ve had 600lbs on it so far and has run smoothly with that.

The quality is phenomenal. All of the bolt holes lined up just fine. The sled came pre-assembled which was really nice. It's a workout installing the sled yourself, so it may be a good idea to have help. It wasn't too bad though. The range of motion is nearly perfect. The only thing I wish was different was that the stop for the sled was about 1" shorter so you can go deeper on the hack squat or the leg press. But it's really not a big deal. Overall I'm very happy with this product. It was shipped from New York and I live in Texas, and it got here in 10 days. Can't beat that.
