Is the AGYP machine any good?

My local gym has this AGYP machine, it sort of looks like a squat rack, but the AGYP has the bar in a fixed motion, do you think this is better than the standard squat rack?

Any additional information is appreciated.

Thank you!

    Sounds like a Smith machine. The bar rides up and down on two rails?

    Squats aren't done in a linear motion, the bar moves more in a tall oval. The Smith machine puts a lot of stress on your lower back at higher weights. Opt for the squat rack / cage.
