    solid piece of gear

    very well built, easy to assemble although the instructions are very rudimentary. I would hope other iterations of this machine will come up with some way of making it easier to get in and out of for taller people. I am only 6' and getting in and out, especially when your legs are shot from pushing to the edge, can be fairly interesting. Definitely a great addition to the gym.

    Power tech machine is better

    I had a power tech square machine but had to sell it when I moved to an apartment. I decided to get this one because it was cheaper. Bad choice. This machine is not as sturdy and it sits low so it is not as easy to use as the power tech machine. The locking handle is hard to release.

  • Great machine....

    I really like my new Body Solid Squat and Calf machine. Perfect addition to my home gym. Takes up minimal space for a leg machine. The round bar for the calf raises seems to target the entire calf muscle really well, and using the angle plate for squatting makes the quads scream. You can also use the flat plate that rests on the floor, or like I did, I have a stepper that I can place over the flat plate on the floor that raises me up about another 6" and allows for even deeper squats that way. Is it as heavy as gym euipment? Well, I've worked out at dozens of gyms all over the country in the last 35+ years, and I can tell you that in my opinion it falls into the top 10% - 15% of what I have used in gyms. While I don't think it would be recommended to go crazy heavy on this machine, I would think it can handle 400 pounds easily, and probably 500 pounds safely. (I'm 53 now, so for me those super heavy days are over). Aslo, it may be a little difficult for taller lifters. Using the machine once you're in it wll be fine, but getting in and out of it if you're much taller than 5' 10" - 6" tall may be a tad difficult, unless you're flexible. I'm about 5' 6" tall, so no problem at all for me. All in all, it's one heck of a nice machine for home use to get those calves and quads pumped up nicely!!

  • Nice machine

    To help my son get into healthier shape, we are helping set up a home gym. He likes to work out alone at times and not having a spotter, makes this a nice option for his leg work. Easy to assemble, easy to use, and doesn't require a lot of space to use. Have to admit, I kinda prefer it over free weight squats. Very much recommend this machine!

  • Well designed, easy to assemble squat machine

    Web reviews gave the Body-Solid GSCL360 favorable ratings, so I bought it. The machine arrived sooner than expected in two boxes. It has a lot of parts, but I'm pretty mechanical and assembled it in an hour. It's a great design and the quality of materials and finish are surprisingly good for a product made in China. The machine is easy to use, although the lock-out handle requires both hands because of the spring tension.

  • Great machine

    So let's cut to the chase. 1. Can you squat past parallel on this machine? With your feet flat on the floor,the answer is yes. The machine actually has two holes to choose from for the stop position in it that allows the bar to travel further if you want to deep squat. I'm not really sure you can see that in the actual picture. You can also use that angle plate which I did but I actually prefer to stand flat-footed on the floor, it is just more comfortable for me. I am 6'1"by the way. 2. Does it totally feel the same as squatting freestyle? The answer is no. And this is my opinion. But nothing is going to be the same as a freestyle barbell squat because in the latter you have to control everything from start to finish. That is not a dealbreaker for me because I have back issues and it's just one less thing for me to have to worry about. 3. Does the rounded calf bar make a difference? The answer is not really, but that's a matter of preference I have a standing calf machine that has a flat bar and to me I get a good work out either way. It really is just a matter of preference, and your comfort level. Conclusion, Overall it's a great machine, and it is very well made. It took me a couple workout sessions to really get the feel of it trying to squat flat-footed and also using the angled platform, After that I am pretty sure you will enjoy it.
