It's Prime. It's beautiful, it's very high quality, it's expensive. The weight stack feels adequate for lifters of pretty much every strength level. There is an adjustable twist knob that lets you quickly add additional 5 lb increments to the resistance, and is smartly done. The action from upright to prone is smooth. I am able to get a good stretch in the extension and flexion mode, but I set the leg roller to the maximum distance for each function to achieve that. I do wish they had added holes all the way around for the pop pin on the leg roller adjustment, as you could get a little more functionality out of it. There is a little bit of wobble on the upper pad when you have the machine in the prone position. I have heard Prime is fixing this (or maybe already have fixed this). The machine is excellent, but difficult to recommend to home gym folks, now that there is many other more affordable, but good quality options on the market now

I love this leg press. It's incredibly well made, very compact, and functions extremely well. It feels very smooth in use. It does come with a removable "stopper" on the underside of the stainless rail, meant to keep you from getting trapped. I removed it, as I would would sometimes tap this on my deepest, ATG, quad-stretching reps. It comes off easy with a couple bolts. The back pad and footplate are both adjustable to your desired angle. There are also two places for you "rack" the trolley, depending on how tall you are, or how long your legs are. The amount of space for plates is enormous. But you won't need as many, because it is a 45 degree machine. Many (maybe most?) commercial leg press machines are on a 30 degree angle. This means 100 lb on this machine will feel comparable to 140 lbs on a 30 degree machine. This means fewer trips walking around with 45s. The machine is a bout $4,500 to get it shipped from Sweden to the US, but check with Gymleco for current quotes. The machine is great, but pricey. I wouldn't say it's maximal value, but it's one of the very best options I've seen for a very compact unit, if price isn't a concern. See my profile for pics of the Gymleco leg press next to the Gymleco hack squat.

The Gymleco hack squat is a great piece for people looking to get a hack, but are tight on square footage. It is very compact, and they are smart with their weight pin position to save move space. The overall build quality is excellent, and the piece looks awesome. In use, it feels pretty good. The back angle is NOT adjustable. It keeps you more upright, and this took some getting used to, as I previously had the Force USA compact combo unit, which you can adjust the pad to have a little bit of hip flexion. The footplate is adjustable, and I like to keep it tilted down, to get more forward knee travel and more quad recruitment. I'm 5' 11", I'm able to hit pretty deep depth on it. My 5' 1" wife can bottom out if she goes ATG, however. You should note that the machine is 45 degrees. Many hacks and leg presses are 30 degrees, which means you require considerably more plates to hit specific level of resistance. 100 lbs on this machine will feel about the same as 140 lbs on a 30 degree unit. This means fewer trips back and forth to get 45s. The machine is about $4,500 to get it shipped to the US, but check with Gymleco to get a current quote for your location.
