Works well as a leg press. But given options on the market with a seat rest that can be adjusted for a hack squat, I'd get those over this. I think this works commercially but for home there are better options.

Movement itself was fine but there was no leg bar to get it started. This forced you to either have to start from a really awkward backwards position, which was terrible for me since I have a bad shoulder, or to lose some ROM by starting in a more comfortable position. I'd personally not buy this version and get one that has a foot bar.

I am giving this five stars but its not my favorite machine. For what it does, its awesome. I just personally do not prefer wide grip. Just know that going in and if you want wide grip, this is great. Otherwise, the regular version is going to be better for you.

This is probably one of my favorite pieces of gym equipment. Its big for a home gym but just so good. This is the machine we try to make jammer arms work like, its the benchmark for all converging presses. My only gripe with this machine is I am not a fan of the way the seat adjusts but if I were putting one hammer strength machine in my home gym, this would be it.

Not as beefy as the rogue echo or as buttery smooth but still a very solid fan bike with lots of adjustment points.

This thing is built like a tank. Very comfortable but its GIANT. I would only buy if you are really use you love reverse hypers and want to make it a big part of your gym. Otherwise for the size and how so many people buy these and then stop using, I'd be cautious on making the purchase until you are sure. But yes this is a very good reverse hyper.

For what it is, the scout is awesome. It folds away and does not take up much space. After you get used to set up and take down, it just takes a few seconds. However I think a lot of people buy before trying and this ends up being a table. I use it occasionally and think its a pretty good reverse hyper. The real issue is after about 150-175lbs of plates it will wobble and you need to use sandbags or something to hold it down. I use it to warm up my glutes/hams so don't put much weight on and do high reps but if you are planning to load this, just get a full size one. As far as the movement, this is no different than the full size rogue imo and I've used that one many times.

I have a ton of them, all bought at a local tractor supply. Look for sales. The biggest pain is loading them in your car and setting them up. But they do work and do their job well. My only gripe is that they do have VOCs releasing from them, hence the smell. Put them in the sun/heat for a few days to get most of that out. I'd be cautious using them inside a house but they are perfect for a garage where there's a little airflow.
