Some people seem to love them, and some seem to hate them (The GHD, not the Titan one specifically).
I would probably get one if I had the room, but I am very space limited and it wouldn't be worth it for me. |

Save the money and use a buddy!

I own the Titan GHD and have had it for several years. Its a solid piece, no worries. It's basically a clone of the Rogue GHD.

I have thousands of dollars in Titan equipment and it's all be rock solid.
I do not have their GHD but I picked a York GHD off of offerup and I love the GHD for ab, hamstring and low back work. It's often compared to the reverse hyper but I found that my reverse hyper was very specific and I didn't even really enjoy using it. I use my GHD for everything from warming up, stretching, to strength training. |

Don’t know anything about the Titan one specifically but I love GHDs. I use one weekly at my gym for abs too. I prob wouldn’t get one for my home gym to be honest unless I had a lot of real estate to fill up.

I bought a Rogue GHD that I found on Craigslist. While they take up space, it’s a great exercise that is nearly impossible to recreate without the machine.
I’ve challenged friends who are fit and strong to try to do an unassisted rep and I’ve never witnessed anyone do a good rep on their first try. I bought one primarily to help strengthen my posterior chain as to prevent injury, particularly knee injuries. Also helps if you are a BJJ practitioner. |

Floor curls are close, but not the same. I'm not entirely sure it's needed outside of some kind of specialization. I don't compete in anything, so I figure if I want something close I would just start sprinting again. |

OP, they have a dual GHD and reverse hyper. If you have the dough, I'd go this route...

I have plenty of home gym floor space, and it would still be one of the last pieces I'd buy unless it was a killer deal and/or my interest was more powerlifting/strength training than overall fitness. They're definitely not without merit, but way, way down on my list of priorities when outfitting a gym. With that said, I own a BFS version, but I was able to snag it at a local auction for $40. Even after cleaning it up and replacing the pad, I only have about $150 in it. |

Thanks for all the replies. I had a line on a used one locally, for what I thought was a decent price. Communication went from sporadic, to pretty much nonexistent with the guy...
