This is a true commercial machine so the pads, bearings and steel is all top notch. It gets 3 stars for performance because it's only got one safety stop. Meaning at 6'-4" I'm nearly full squatting it on the first rep. The other issue is that the foot plate is in a more vertical position. So the sled is at like 35 degrees but your foot is at something like 70 degrees. Easy to target the quads and get knees over toes but can be difficult to find a great position.
I bought for an absolute steal so it'll do until I have room to upgrade.
