Product Summary

The GDLF Lat Pulldown Machine doubles as a low row machine, opening up a great range of exercises when added to your home gym. This piece of fitness equipment is constructed with powder coated steel, offering a lot of value at a wallet-friendly price. Working off a plate-loaded weight system, the GDLF Lat Pulldown has a weight capacity of 500 pounds, which offers enough resistance for the majority of users.

To accommodate users of various heights, both the foam covered rollers and the seat have four different height adjustments. According to the reviews, assembly is straightforward and simple.
