Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. You do need your own set of olympic plates, I would suggest using 45 pound plates, starting with at least 2 on either side. We have the SBL460PF which this unit is part of and there is no weight limit. I squat 750 with this, and thank god for the shoulder and back padding, it will not bottom out on me! An amazingly well-built piece, 100% guaranteed for life.

This is a great machine for working your legs. You can do squats and calf raises. You get all the benefits of doing barbell squats without having to worry about hurting yourself. The machine is very good quality and can support a lot of weight. You will need an open space of approxiamtely 5.5'x4.5' to put the machine in.
The only negative is the price, mainly the shipping costs. With shipping and tax, the price was around $505.
