RitFit Leg Press Hack Squat Machine with Linear Bearing, 1200LB Capacity

I have had this leg press for over 2 months now. It is a solid machine, but you do need to load and get yourself in cautiously. The bar to load your weights is very long on both sides and can load and handle more weight than the other machines seen on this site and other places. As noted in the description, it can handle a great deal of weight. The rollers are very smooth, but I recommend that you keep them clean ( a wipe down after using and maybe covering them with a towel or cloth to keep the dust from collecting on them). My only concern is that the foot platform is small, so keep that in mine, but I am able to get a great workout in by working with various foot placements and finding the right one. If you know someone that is handy and creative with welding and working with metal, you can possibly make an add on to throw over and remove from the original platform (keep in mind that the platform flips to use as a hack squat). I assembled it myself and it took over four hours. If you can have a "quiet" partner that will follow your lead, it will be a great help. There are some assembly steps where the part is heavy. The directions and the way the screws and other hardware is packaged makes it very easy. The hardware is sectioned off to respond to each step of the directions, I think it is brilliant. Have a wrench and ratchet/socket set ready, as the small tools they provide will slow you down. There are some areas where it gets tight, but overall, the assembly will move smoothly. I have the whole family appreciating it. It takes up space in the garage, but the machine architecture makes it easy to set up efficiently in your space and possibly make it the center for a small gym.

I love this hack squat machine! It’s the perfect footprint for my smaller basement gym too. Setting it up was pretty straight forward but took a couple hours to do alone. Changing it from hack squat to leg press is super quick and easy. Functionality wise it works great. Glides very smooth and holds plenty of weight! The most I’ve had on it so far is 6 plates on each side of the carriage (540lb + carriage weight), but there’s room for more plates as long as you’re using iron plates. The only negative side is the platform is slightly small but doesn’t really limit my range of motion because I’m shorter at only 5’8” but I can imagine this could be problematic for taller people. Overall, I’ve had this machine for 6 months now and I absolutely love it. I use it every leg day still and it’s held up great. Highly recommend!

after a ton of searching and research this is the one I went for. And I’m glad I did! Pretty sweet machine, easy assembly, big but not huge so it fits in small spaces, very good value for the money, you get a leg press and a hack squat machine in one so that’s a plus. It’s pretty smooth, however it’s a bit loud going up and down, doesn’t bother me none, it’s the bearing sleeves, it is what it is, not a fatal flaw. Well built and comfortable, ergos are great, just got to keep an eye on the safety bars, you have to look at them to make sure they are seated properly especially if you have a lot of weight. But overall it’s a great addition to my home gym and I’m very happy I got this one. For the quality and the price it’s perfect. 5/5

If you are starting to build your gym and aren't going to be lifting extremely heavy weights, this is a great starter machine. Putting it together wasn't too bad until I had issues with the ball bearings inside of the slider piece. I reached out to customer service and they were able to send the part for me to repair quickly. I am happy with their service. I wasn't happy having to buy a specific tool to fix this machine, however, but it worked out in the end. This machine does not take up a lot of space, so it was nice to add to my basement gym. Some cons: it is very difficult to get in and out of this machine since it's so compact. I've used this machine enough times now that I have an awkward way of getting out of it (from a hack squat position; leg press isn't too bad) so it can be done, just know there is an adjustment period as you two get acquainted. The plates where your feet are placed on (going either way) is not grippy enough, so I ended up buying grip tape to make it better. I need a wider foot placement than what this squat rack allows, so grip tape is a MUST as my feet are pretty much on the edge. I am 5' 6.5" and doing a really deep squat does result in the machine hitting the base. So, if you are shorter than 5' 5", I would say you may not be able to complete a full squat. Highly recommend you look elsewhere or consider putting a wood block down to give yourself some extra height.

Overall I recommend this product for the price, customer service, and functionality. Now, it was very unclear how this would be shipped. When I got the tracking number it was for one box that weighed less than 1/2 the total weight of the machines gross weight. This will come in two shipments. The first took four days and the other box showed up two days later. The boxes will most-likely be damaged upon delivery because of the weight of each box and the soy milk that the multiple delivery people drink as part of their daily routine 💪🏼. Each item will be wrapped in bubble wrap, but there is not a lot of styrofoam material in the box from keeping the items from clanking around - most-likely will have some scratches, but that should not deter you as this is GYM EQUIPMENT. This may appear that it cannot sustain the weight that you max on it, but with the bolt plates that come with it the machine is reinforced at the primary bolt/pressure bearing points. While not quite the max load that is advertised because I mix bumper and iron plates, I have had 12x 45s and two 160lbs resistance bands to this and it handles the load fine. For those of you that have mixed plates, I can only get 6x 45lbs bumper plates and 6x 45lbs iron plates before I run out of room. The sled moves smoothly on the guides but you have to make sure to lube it. I coated mine with lithium grease. There are only two aggravating things about this, but I got over it after a couple workouts and it only really matters if you do multiple positions toe/foot placements during exercises. First the foot pad on the leg press has thequarter moon swing plate (or whatever it's called) that lets you transition from hack to press in an awkward spot. It is more offset to the left side and limits your toe/foot rotations. Overall you are able to do what you need. The second issue is that the pads on the hack are thin and put a lot of pressure on your shoulders. I don't really like this because I bought this machine to replace regular squats since I just had double shoulder surgery in an attempt to alleviate pressure on my shoulders. Regarding customer service, I immediately inventoried all of the parts because my boxes arrived like the fell off of a roof. I was missing multiple bolt plates. I messaged the company through Amazon and was promptly asked to confirm the exact number of pieces missing. They mailed it the next day and those arrived about four days later. I recommend this brand because of the service and quality. If you don't like the quarter moon thing I mentioned above, I recommend buying their new updated model.

Last year I spent a couple of months to do a lot of research and evaluate on different brands of this types of machine. Eventually I thought I made the right decision to choose the RITFIT SPORTS. It was quick delivery just after five days order. The instructions brochure for the assembling are pretty clear in detail to follow. The customer service is excellent at solving any issues that happened due to transit. In the meantime they provide the guidelines about the machine maintenance that is useful for the home gym in the long run. After assembling, the machine looks exactly the same as the picture advised online, shiny and great appearance. It has a solid weight capacity, made by the durable and sturdy steel. The locations of weight plates are well designed under the leg press plate, the big difference from the other brands. In addition, the wonderful design of both handrails are great for security during training and protection of the machine also. The leg press machine operates smoothly and is very easy to master for a novice, the best and convenient for home use anytime. After three months working out, I feel I have had big progress on my leg muscles, way better and faster than using dumbbell and resistance bands. I am happy with that. I highly recommend it since the leg press and hack squat combo machine offer the numerous benefits for the lower body muscle growth and development. The RITFIT SPORTS has great acceptable price and quality for those values!

So the product is usable as received. The left safety rail was striped out for the bolt. Many paint dings. Which is mostly okay. As it will happed some from using it. The plastic caps on it. Many came damaged and one was missing. The missing one was on the bottom. And will likely never be seen. So ok for that. So an edit today 4/20/26 the bearings on the left side are now making a crunch sound when used. Only pushing 400 lbs. supposed to be rated to 1200 lbs. So changing my review to one star. Still didn’t get the left rail replacement that was promised. Contacted RitFit about the issues. And they were mostly awesome at fixing the problems. I took a video of the stripped bolt. And they stated they would send me a new rail. That hasn’t happened. They did send me a new shoulder pad that the stitching was bad in. And new plastic caps. It’s definitely a great starter press. Wish the foot plate was bigger to get the wider stance. It offers a great range for me. 6 feet 1 here. And I don’t have a problem with what it can do. It’s a little tight with the leg press. Nothing that makes it impossible to use. Overall, I would buy from them again. Not sure I would do it through Amazon though.

I have to say this was an incredibly irritating experience. Originally I ordered a different brand leg press that came to me broken. That seller was not able or willing to send me a replacement piece so I had to send that one back which was a whole other ordeal. So then I decided on this one the product seemed to be higher quality but it was a little more money than the one I bought previously. Well unfortunately the same exact piece that was broken on the other brand was also bent and broken on this one. Luckily the company was super responsive and sent me a replacement. Unfortunately I had to go through three replacements before I got one that wasn't damaged. It's the main piece in the center of the leg press so it of course needs to be in perfect condition. The experience was beyond frustrating but when I finally was able to get it put together overall it is a very nice and quality made piece of equipment. I am still giving this item five stars because accidents do happen it's unfortunate that it happened three times before it was right but the company was always willing to send me a replacement piece So I am satisfied with that and I am happy with my purchase overall. My legs are sore as we speak. I wouldn't hesitate to order from this company again purely due to the great customer service.
