It's a solidly built preacher bench, but it would be nice if the spotter arms could be adjusted. The seat and front pad are fairly comfortable without being overly padded.

I think it works great for all of the exercises it was intended to work and I think it's one of those pieces that most commercial gyms will have for a good reason. It's an easier way to load your single leg movements without having balance turn into your limiting factor and it's easy to load/unload.

I can't think of any downsides from using this machine in a commercial setting. It's fairly easy to adjust, solid as a rock, and does a great job as a plate loaded chest press. This was one of my go-to machines for pressing movements when I had access to one.

This is probably the most "public commercial gym leg press" leg press machine I can think of and it definitely deserves to recognition because it's a well-built solid piece of equipment.

I think this piece works well in a commercial gym setting where floor space is at an absolute premium where a full size hack squat is out of the question. It would be nice to have the floor plate be adjustable, but overall it's not a bad piece.

It's a well built single purpose machine that works great in a commercial setting. My only complaint is the height and the angle of the pins where you load the weights. It's just slightly too tall and angled a little too aggressively to where shorter lifters can have a hard time unloading plates if they just worked their front delts to failure. Other than that, a solid piece of equipment.

Super well build and designed. Out of the 3 ab crunch machines that were available at the commercial gym I lifted at, this was the first choice for me every time. It's really easy to adjust for different heights, and provides great resistance for seated crunches. I would definitely pick up one of these if I found one used at the right price and I had the space.

It's a well built piece of equipment and does its one job well. It's just too expensive for what it provides to include in a home gym unless you can find one used cheap, but I think it's a great addition for any commercial gym. I don't think I ever saw ours get replaced in 2 years of heavy use in a commercial gym.
