Body-Solid Powerline Leg Ext/Curl Bench

Really sturdy kit, took a while to assemble but worth it.

I'm 6 feet tall, and this machine feels like it's the perfect size for me. If you're on the shorter side, I think it will be tough to get your feet below the leg extension rollers.ASSEMBLYYou'll need 14mm sockets or wrenches plus a 19mm wrench and one wrench that can go larger than that. The instructions are clear about what goes where. You will need to use your judgement of how much to tighten things down. I put it together by myself in under an hour. If you have a lot of experience putting together boxed up items, it will be no problem. If you find Ikea challenging, you'll want a helper.DURABLITY/STABILITYFeels sturdy enough. Some of the paint got scratched in shipping and assembly. It's not a museum piece. I feel no risk of tipping when using it. I think the weak point are the seat pads. They're mostly supported in the middle, so I could see them breaking or deforming if you put too much weight on the edges.FORCE CURVEThe leg extensions are very easy at the bottom part and tough at the top. They say that's not the best for hypertrophy, but it should be the easiest on your knees. I don't see any way to even out the force curve with this design. I think we just have to live with it for any version of this machine that does not have cables. The leg curl force curve feels much better.OLYMPIC PLATESI bought an 8" long 1" to 2" plate adapter. The plate pin is 9" long, so you could get a longer one if you wanted. Mine works just fine for iron plates.Good luck and happy lifting!

Buona panca per allenamento amatoriale, pecca in po' nelle dimensioni....qualche centimetro in altezza e lunghezza potrebbe soddisfare anche persone superiori al metro e settanta!

The bench works properly and looks great. The only issue was that two of the end caps don't fit properly and I'm missing another type of end cap. Both are minor parts that are simply aesthetic so I'm not worried about it.

Ok, lets just say this isn't a piece of equipment you'd probably find in a fancy gym but for a home gym, it works just fine. Put it together in no time and It seems to be pretty solid for a home gym. Most importantly , it saves me a trip to the gym and gets the job done. I would definitely buy this product again. Just keep in mind, it is for a home gym and for the price its a great deal.

After reading some negative reviews I was worried about this purchase. But after using it, this really is a great machine. Smooth range of movement, great muscle isolation. I'd highly recommend this.
