The Hoist CL-3402 is a dedicated seated leg curl machine from the Club Line, Hoist's compact commercial range. It trains hamstrings only, with a braced back, a self-adjusting roller pad, and a selectable exercise-arm range. It suits clubs, studios, and home gyms that want one station doing one job properly.
It isolates knee flexion and nothing else. Anyone shopping for a leg curl machine for sale meets the same offer again and again: a combination frame that does leg extensions too. The CL-3402 is the other choice. You sit, the back pad holds your hips still, and the hamstrings do the work without help from the hips or lower back.
That narrowness is the point. A station that only curls stays set up between sets, and it stays free when someone else is training quads. In a room where two people train together, or where the program supposes front and back of the leg, a single frame doing both becomes the queue.
What is the difference between a seated and a lying leg curl? Hip position. Seated curls start with the hips bent; lying curls start with them straight, which changes how the hamstrings are loaded through the rep. If prone work suits your users better, the Hoist RS-2408 prone leg curl covers the same muscle from the other position.
Every listing selling this machine online carries the same short Club Line paragraph and five dimensions. The settings that decide how it feels are published somewhere else entirely—inside Hoist's own assembly manual and spec sheet.
Three of them matter before you order. The back pad moves through seven numbered positions, so leg length is matched on a scale rather than by eye. The exercise arm has four selectable range positions set by a lever, which changes how far the curl travels. And the weight ratio chart translates the stack into what actually arrives at the roller pad—the figure that decides whether the resistance is right, since a lever machine never delivers its stack weight one-for-one.
None of that appears on the retail listings. It is published below in full, because a $4,000-plus station is a poor thing to discover after the freight truck leaves. Ask for a quote before you commit to the floor space—the team at Hamilton Home Fitness can confirm current lead times on the Hoist Fitness collection.

How much floor space does a leg curl machine need? Plan the frame footprint plus a clear side for entry and a meter behind the seat for the arm swing and for walking past. The height is low by commercial standards, so ceilings are not the constraint here—the floor is.

That last point is worth saying plainly rather than skipping: Hoist publishes no maximum user weight for the CL-3402 in the inputs, on the live page, in the spec sheet, or in the owner's manual. If a facility needs a documented figure, request it in writing before ordering.
Three hoist machines on this site cover the same movement in different ways. Prices below are current at the time of writing.

The honest surprise is the price order. The HD-3400 leg extension and curl does two exercises for less money than the CL-3402 does one, so nobody buys the dedicated frame to save cash. They buy it for a bigger stack, a setup that never gets changed, and a station that stays available. If you want the quad half as a separate frame too, the CL-3401 leg extension is its matching partner, and this guide to how the two movements divide the work is worth reading first.
Compare the three side by side across the wider range of selectorized leg machines before you decide.
It arrives as freight and gets built where it will live. At 629 pounds the machine is not carried through a house, and the hoist requires it bolted to the floor before use, so the position you choose is effectively permanent.
Three things to settle before the truck is booked:
Ownership is straightforward after that. Hoist covers this frame under its commercial and light commercial terms rather than its residential ones, which is a distinction worth understanding when comparing equipment warranties across brands. Facility buyers planning a whole room can use the gym design service to place it properly the first time.
Does the CL-3402 also do leg extensions? No. It performs the seated leg curl only. Hoist builds a separate extension machine and a separate combination frame if you need quad work on the same purchase.
Can the CL-3402 go in a home gym? Yes, provided the floor can take permanent bolts and the room can accept a frame this heavy. Be aware that the warranty terms are the commercial ones, not Hoist's residential schedule.
What maintenance does it need? The machine ships with a commercial maintenance decal, and Hoist's manual asks home owners to follow the lighter home schedule instead. In practice that means periodic inspection of pads, hardware, and the cable rather than daily checks.
What are the crate dimensions? Hoist does not publish them for this model. Ask for shipping dimensions before delivery if doorway or stairwell clearance is tight.
Can I return it if it does not fit the room? Returns run to a 30-day window on undamaged goods in original packaging, with a restocking fee and return freight paid by the buyer. Read the full shipping and returns policy before ordering, because a bolted-down 629 lb machine is difficult to send back.
Order the CL-3402 through an authorized hoist dealer and get a firm quote, lead time, and freight cost in one place. Nationwide delivery, manufacturer warranty honored, and a team that will check the fit with you first.
