I bought this back in 2015 and have used it consistently the entire time. Very sturdy and versatile. In fact, all Body Solid equipment I've bought has never had any issues whatsoever - and the same cannot be said for the other manufacturers I went through.

Tolles Gerät. Sehr robust und ordentlich verarbeitet und lackiert. Training macht Spaß. Würde ich wieder kaufen und kann ich auch weiterempfehlen.

habe mir aufgrund des Corona Virus was einfallen lassen müssen da ja alle Gyms geschlossen vorübergehend wurden. Habe mir also diesen Beinstrecker/Beinbeuger zugelegt und bin im großen und ganzen voll zufrieden.Da ich aber nach 7 Jahren Trainingserfahrung auch einiges den Geräten abfordere (Beinstrecken im Studio ~180kg) habe ich aber auch diesen Beinstrecker an seine Grenzen gebracht. ;)PRO:- super leichtgängige Bewegung ohne Stocken- Gestell unkaputtbar- Hat Begrenzungsstift was nicht alle Beinstrecker/Beinbeuger haben- Rückenpolster extreme Größeneinstellmöglichkeit ... von Riese bis Kleinwüchsige- (für Fortgeschrittene): einfache Modifikation des Beinstreckers mit Gummis möglich ... einfach 2m Gummi über Fußgelenkspolster bis in den Nicht-Polsterbereich ziehen, dann unter dem hinteren Standfuß durchziehen, oben drüber spannen und über den linken Griff drüber ziehen. Bei kurzen Gummis reicht einfach das drüber ziehen zwischen hinterem Standfuß und linkem Griff. Ein paar dünne rote Gummis machen da wirklich einen brutalen Unterschied in der Spannungskurve. :)CONTRA:- Fußgelenkspolster nicht verstellbar (für mich passt's glücklicher Weise genau ... Abstand: Kniegelenkdrehpunkt zu Fußgelenk bei mir genau 40cm.- Bezugskunstleder leider die "Edelvariante" die mit Sicherheit nur gut ausschaut solange er komplett neu ist. Da der Bezugsstoff matt ist werden Schweißrückstände auf Dauer mit Sicherheit Spuren hinterlassen. Wie wiederstandsfähig das Kunstleder gegen Abnützung ist kann ich derzeit noch nicht beurteilen meinem Gefühl nach ist dies aber mit Sicherheit nicht mit Studiogeräten vergleichbar ...- (Für Fortgeschrittene) BEINSTRECKER: Sitzpolster gehört verstärkt. Die angegebenen 120kg mag er ja grad aushalten aber habe ihn sicher mit mehr belastet 80kg + ein paar Gummis hat der überzogene Holzträger des Sitzes im Kniebereich beim Strecken nicht wirklich ausgehalten. Werde 2x3mm Stahlplatten drunter schrauben ... dann ist der Beinstrecker mit Sicherheit unkaputtbar.- BEINBEUGER: Je nach Oberschenkelumfang ist ein Einkürzen des Rückhaltepolster-Steckvierkantrohres notwendig, da man bei weitem hinten reindrücken sonst mit dem Fußgelenkspolster am Vierkantrohr vorbeischrammt was diesen mit Sicherheit auf Dauer beschädigt. Habe das Vierkantrohr um ca. 4-5cm gekürzt. So könnte ich zwar immer noch alle Löcher nutzen was aber sicher als "Natural" sicher nicht nötig ist. Als weitere Modifikation werde ich Sicherheitshalber in das Rohr des Rückhaltepolsters eine Stahlstange einschieben um diese gegen Knicken zu verstärken.Für mich ein PRO ... für andere ev. ein CONTRA:Da dieses Gerät standardmäßig eine Aufnahme für 25mm Scheiben besitzt wackeln normale 30mm Scheiben ein bischen bei rascher Ausführung und müssten gesichert werden. Da ich aber kontrolliert die Übung ausführe ist das für mich kein Problem sondern sogar ein PRO ... da ich somit beim Droppen leichter die 30er Scheiben runterheben kann.FAZIT: Für alle die nicht an die 120kg Grenze des Beinstreckers und 100kg Grenze des Beinbeugers gehen ... Haltbarkeitsmäßig bedenkenlos kaufen. Allen anderen würde ich meine Modifikationen vorschlagen. ;)Man sollte aber auf jeden Fall beachten ob der Abstand des Fußgelenkspolster vom Drehpunkt gemessen für einen passt. Interessant wäre sonst als Alternative mit Sicherheit noch das "MAXXUS Multitrainer Pro" Gerät was aber zu der Zeit überall Ausverkauf war. Auf Jeden Fall anschauen !

Ottimo prodotto, lo uso da una settimana nel mio studio personal. Consiglio.

I just now finished putting together my new Body-Solid Cam Series Leg Extension and Curl Machine and I am impressed. I am known as the Simon Cowell of (book) reviews so people sit up and take notice when I give a positive review and this is a positive review. I am 6'1" tall and it fits me perfectly. This has to be one of the easiest assembly on a piece of gym equipment I have every put together. I started with reading the instructions but the diagrams were so clear I just went off of them and it took me about an hour to assemble. Some people have stated that you can't put the cam assembly on if you put the seat on first but I had no problem putting it on with the seat on. In fact it didn't even come close to interfering with putting it on. It comes ready for standard 1" plates but I had a few 2" sleeves laying around as well as both 1" and 2" plates so that didn't matter to me one way or another. There is a reason they call it Body-Solid because this machine is solid. Comfortable seat and smooth operation. You don't really need to move the bar between ext and curls because it centers anyway with the weights. 5 stars all the way and I highly recommend.

Attrezzo per uso domestico molto buono, abbastanza compatto, materiali di qualita', secondo me. Montaggio semplice, si puo' montare da soli. Mi sto allenando con le serie giganti e va benissimo. Prezzo giusto!! L'unica cosa e' che, come ha gia' scritto qualcuno, non si puo' regolare la parte bassa di spinta con i piedi, quindi bisogna essere alti tra 1,68 e 1,82 circa al massimo, perche' oltre si rischia di non avere una posizione comoda, anche se i problemi maggiori potrebbero averli maggiormente i piu' bassi rispetto agli alti, perche' questi ultimi al massimo appoggiano un po' di piu' verso gli stinchi...ma riescono a spingere lo stesso. Se siete alti 2 m lasciate stare...

I have several pieces of Body Solid gym equipment, and for the most part have had a good experience with them. This has been a decent addition to the home gym. Couple of small issues however. The instructions for assembly look like they have been improved based on what other reviews are saying. But I just don't understand why manufacturers can't put all the bolts of a same length in a bag by themselves, and/or mark the top with a drop of colored paint. Then just say "put green bolt here" you have to sit an measure every bolt on their sheet to make sure it's the right one. And some are so close to others in length, that it's hard to tell.Once that was all finished, it turned out nicely. It's a sold machine. However, as others have mentioned you'll need to get the adapters for the weight posts if you want to use 2 inch plates on the machine.The only other issue is that I'm fairly tall. 6'5. So since the lower arm that you use to push the weight doesn't adjust up and down, it doesn't quite fit right.But, if you are below 6'3 or so, it should work fine.(edit) I'm updating the review after having used the machine for a few workouts. 2 main issues1- You can't adjust the height on the seat, or the length of the leg extension bar. But, having said that.. if you are in the normal height range it will probably work fine. But being taller, this is a challeng2-The weight post only holds 4 45 lb plates. This is an "ok" workout. But that's the most it can hold lengthwise. I'm not the strongest guy out there. So if that isn't enough weight for me, I'm sure others will have this problem. You can solve it by just switching to single leg extensions. But it's worth mentioning.

Great machine, easy to use. Leg extensions and curls are what it's for. I actually think the leg curls that I perform with his machine are more effective than when I'm lying on my stomach. I really felt that I could isolate my hamstrings. Pleasantly surprised with the ability to adjust the machine for myself, my wife, and my kids.Now for the bad. I'll totally confess to being mechanically declined, but this was a pain in the @$$ to assemble. There were no real instructions and the bolts provided were very similar in size and easily mixed up. One of the metal support pieces had to be hammered in to the other to make it fit. Figuring out how to use it was a little challenging as no instructions were provided. This video showed that it is actually easy to use. [...]. In the end, what gets it 5 stars is that, 1) once put together, it is very sturdy, and 2) it is $150 cheaper on Amazon than at any local retailer. I got it within 3 days and the 90 minute assembly time was at least partially my fault doe to mixing up the bolts and having to restart.

Very good quality machine. Built to last. My second bodysolid machine and I will probably buy another one soon as I have paid for this. Highly recommended

Once upon a time.....there was a Nautilus total workout machine in my basement and I loved it. I'm not a body builder, just want to keep in shape, but there's just not enough room (low ceiling) in the current basement. This body solid machine isn't up to the same standard as the old nautilus, but it certainly is more than good enough. It works very well and gives me a chance to work the old legs they wouldn't get otherwise, and as a polio survivor these leg muscles of mine have to be kept in shape. It's literally do or die. The only complaint I have with the machine is the assembly instructions. If you're clairvoyant you'll have no trouble putting the thing together, if however, you're like me it's best to lay everything out, make sure to identify the bolts correctly and all should go well. It took me about 3 hours from opening the box to completed assembly. The instructions consist of a single badly photocopied sheet with nothing more than an exploded view of the machine and parts. Go for it, and have some fun. This machine does not come with a weight stack. The shaft is 1" in diameter and 1" weights can be tough to find, fortunately I had some sitting around, but if you don't, expect to spend another $100.00 for new weights, so look for used weights for a considerable savings. All in all if you are looking for a good value in a leg Ext/Curl machine I don't think you will go wrong with this Body Solid GCEC340 Cam Series Leg Ext Curl Machine.

Sturdy equip. not very difficult to assemble. (about 1 hr.). The only problem that I found with mine was that the adaptor sleeve is made of plastic with set scew to hold sleeve in place. It stripped within the first two weeks and I had to drill and tap new hole and threads through palstic sleeve and metal arm of arm. Works great now, other than that little hiccup, would recommend.
