I imagine that some people with significant back/disk issues may not be able to effectively do squats, but could benefit from this as a substitute.

If you plan on going for 3 years 5 days plus and you have the space it is way worth it to build your own home gym. I'm only missing 2 more peices of equipment and I'll have everything I would use at golds gym and I get to keep it all for life and for my kids. Plus weights never seem to go down in value.

You are definitely correct from a pure dollar perspective, but if you take into account your time, the home gym can be worth it.

No wasted time driving back and forth, no waiting for equipment you want to use, and you can get other things done in between sets (load the laundry, organize your desk/garage, etc). My favorite one is that my daughter hangs out in there and talks with me in between sets, giving me more time with her.

That's a lot of money for a machine that only does one exercise. Is it worth it?
These doubles up as calve raises as well. Since the stability is removed out of it, you can set your legs higher up and further apart for more of a glute workout. Legs closer together and a little lower becomes a quad dominate exercise.

With that said, I'm not sure how the angle of this will feel like without trying it personally.

$20 a month is $240 annually and $2,400 over 10 years. $2,400 will buy almost no commercial-grade equipment. You would have one or two pieces of equipment. If you buy cardio equipment, you can spend that on a treadmill or elliptical alone. If you buy a good rack, you will spend that for the bones and you would still need to buy the plates and bars. So, your home gym might be a little bare...
Facebook Marketplace/Craigslist.. You can build yourself a very capable home gym with $2400 if you're patient.

I don't know that you need professional grade for the average person not lifting 500 plus pounds. Plus you could buy gear used. I found a $150 rack on sale is more than adequate. honestly, the cap one for under a hundred bucks felt fairly secure with 300 lb on it . I bought a used magnetic elliptical a few years back that's NordicTrack for a hundred bucks. I have a rogue echo bike, a half cage, dip bar, leg extension curl which I do hip extensions on as well, Plus a rack pulley system. I'm probably under $1, 200 with all the weights. I can sell the equipment for about what I paid. I bought 160 lb dumbbells that I sold the weight separately for a profit.

Essentially it could be free depending on the timing. It's just a matter if you have the space and you like going to the gym or if you work out better at home.

Single-leg leg press is amazing for quad development and you don't need a crap ton of weights if you do them correctly. Anyone that has a home gym shouldn't be stressing on the costs of plates. You can buy bumper plates for sub $1/lb these days.
I don't know that I need it cuz I have about 600 lbs, but I did buy the 25 lb bumper plates today for $40 shipped. Crazy, Walmart can send me plates cheaper than I can get the plates shipped.

worth it or not is subjective to the user. Squats are definitely better but if you have spinal stenosis squats are a no bueno but these you can still use.

If you have extra space in your home, by all means but I do think people overlook the implied cost of reserving space for a whole gym setup. As I noted, my opinion is if you're doing bulk of your work in squat rack + bench press (powerlifting) then the footprint isn't crazy. If I were to reserve space for all the equipment I currently use, I'd be looking at 1000 square foot+ worth. The equipment itself isn't even the expensive part

I live in a city though which both means real estate is expensive, and access to local gyms is plentiful. If I lived somewhere more rural, the equation would differ.

That's how machines are in general. IMO unless you're almost solely powerlifter (squat, bench, deadlift) or have disposable money on order of mid $xx,xxx range and space for equipment, home gym isn't worth it.
If you actually use your gym membership, it's genuinely a great value.

The person he was responding to didn't even know what a cage was. They also commented on getting a cage over this if they have limited space.

Footprint on this is 4x6 and I could probably fit this in my tiny home gym if I moved some stuff around. Not going to spend $750 on it tho.

Your gonna need a shit ton of 45lb plates for this. I can do 3-4x as much on a press vs squat. Better for back though.

Home gym just needs cage with barbell set, functional trainer for pully exercises, bench, and dumbbells. Less than $2k. I ditched the gym during covid, and never looked back...

This is the actual leg press you will receive :

https://signature-fit.com/product...d-capacity

I purchased it before for a gym, but sent it back. It is built well, but there are no bottom safety stops and the latching mechanism was questionable. Even while assembling it, the locks disengaged and the sled slid down.

It would be good for someone at a home gym that is careful, but don't even use the handle on the sled to pull yourself up.

Quote from LukeH9333 :
First off, a 24-hour will not cost $20/no in 10 years. I don't have anything like that around me even now and I don't live in a rich area.

If we're talking weight training, you can do a lot with a rack, adjustable dumbbells, barbell and weights. Throw in a lat pulldown bar and you're really in business.
First off, you could not get $20 gym memberships 20 years ago. Gym memberships have actually gone lower because many gyms have seen the way to make money is to be cheap and get lots of members, while most members will just continue to pay the fee without using the gym regularly.

Secondly, reading comprehension is a cool skill to have…

I urge others to instill a habit of making the time to put in the work and discipline along with nutrition before committing to a huge single use leg press machine for the home. Try the gym and pay for a few hours of training if you are clueless or research exercise programs. If you do not program this habit, then you end up with a machine to hang up towels on as a monument to a dead dream. Also, most walmart equipment is never commercial grade, and you get what you pay for. Good quality machines ( Sturdy, balanced, intuitive engineering) make working out more enjoyable. 💪
