Rank #6 in Best Leg Extension Machine 2026: 10 Ranked, and the Capacity Claims That Don't Add Up
Komodo Leg Extension and Curl Machine (seated, green)
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Komodo Leg Extension and Curl Machine is a seated steel bench that covers both movements in the name: leg extensions and leg curls. It sits at number 6 in this guide at £179.97, with 4.1 out of 5 from 76 ratings. It takes standard 1 inch plates and 2 inch Olympic plates through an adaptor included in the box, the back pad slides forwards and backwards and locks with a large screw pin, and the thigh rest and shin rest adjust on the same system. The listing also warns that, because of the size, it arrives in 2 separate boxes.
The finding on this fiche is a gap rather than a contradiction. Higher up this guide, listings put a big capacity number in the title and then register something smaller in the specification. The Komodo page does not quote a maximum load at all: no kilograms, no pounds, nothing about how much you can put on the arm. What it does carry is a specification table that lists "Wireless" under other display features and "unknown" under guaranteed software updates until, on a machine with no electronics in it. So there is no inflated figure here to catch out, but there is also no figure to work from.
Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing as supplied to us, not from a machine we built, loaded or tested.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“Amazing value, could do with some reinforcing in some areas also maybe better weight balance on the rear but otherwise very good.”
Verified purchase“Excellent for the money. Robust, works well and easy to assemble. Was annoyed as there were components missing so contacted the seller who relied straight away and said it came in two packages. Second package arrived next day. Good piece of kit.”
