Out of: The squat is a great compound movement that requires activation of more muscle groups than the leg press. You can also address the safety concerns with squats by using unilateral alternatives like Bulgarian split squats or single leg RDLs.

*Edit* I was wrong, it does have storage horns.
Depending on how much space you have you might be better off with a half rack with pulleys and a bar, or a rack with pulleys and smith combo. That said if you feel you are getting a solid upper body workout with dumbbells (which is entirely possible) then this would be a good way to round out the legs.
I'm no expert by any means though, just an enthusiast, so take this fwiw.

TheJungleGym reviews this exact machine and had mostly great things to say about it. Even mentions you can save some width by removing the top plate load bar because you can just load out the back instead and still get heavy.
A lot of cheaper ones have wheels like a rollerblade on a sled instead of linear bearings- The Body Solid leg press/hack, for example. Always go with the linear bearings.

Here is a good deal on 45 and/or 55 pound bumper plates someone posted here on SD yesterday. You can get a pair of 45's for $45 ($0.50/lb). Buy multiple sets depending on your weight needs. https://slickdeals.net/f/19038370-flexwave-black-olympic-bumper-plate-sets-steel-hub-rubber-plates-in-90lb-110lb-200lb-options-for-strength-training-94-99
Some have complained about the left side safety stop being lower than the right side. This causes the right side to hold all the weight. One of the Walmart reviews referenced the fix below where someone used some washers to level it out.

Amazing deal, but if I didn't just get a Squat Max MD, I'd get this. Now this would be a pure "want" item as I really "need" a leg extension/leg curl machine.
Congrats to those who picked one up. Thiccc legs in 2026 loading.
