Seems High Quality But The Assembly Instructions Lacked Important Details

The leg press certainly appears to be high quality but I wanted to share some details lacking from the assembly instructions to hopefully spare others. Assembly took 4-6 hours spread across 3 evenings. I did most of it by myself but my son helped to mount the sled itself, and you may need a 3rd person to hold the rods above the mounting area unless you get creative. I used the bottom stoppers temporarily. I hit two main snags. First, the rods have different hole sizes on each end so it does matter which way they are inserted into the arms. The larger hole should be on the top to mount the decorative plate. Second, the tall legs have larger openings to mount the plate holders so they are not interchangeable. This doesn't become obvious until the very last step, meaning I had to slide the leg press against a wall that could support the entire weight to allow swapping the legs without having to remove the sled. I do read all instructions which made it all the more frustrating to discover these details after the fact. One last note, the attachment for the seat was not wide enough so I had to hammer it a bit to allow the seat arm to fit. But now it is assembled and we can enjoy leg day!
