Anyone used or heard anything about this?

I want to get this for my gym. Just wondering if anyone has used it or heard anything about it. It's kind of in between a leg press and hack squat. Thanks

I used a similar machine at a gym I used to train at, I like it a lot. Its less stress on the low back than leg press.

Powertec makes good equipment. I have the Powertec Workbench. don't use it much, but my wife does. Its good, but free weights are the gym are better. Their stuff is very sturdy, just like gym equipment.
