Just get a squat rack and a bench.

obviously some weights too.

Thats really all you will need to last a long time.

This thing looks like something for fancy sit ups.

Rack is a great starting point, as they have so many accessories now, its kind of the center piece. The other big one, is the dual cable functional trainer. The Inspire one from costco is always on sale and a really good piece.

$1700, dual cable, smith machine and bench. What can't you do on this?https://www.costco.com/inspire-fitne...100812608.html
Already have a solid basic home gym started.

Power rack with high/low lat tower, pull up and dip bars.
Adjustable bench with leg extension/leg curl attachment.
600lb of Olympic weights.
2 sets of adjustable dumbbells
Adjustable kettlebell
3 Olympic bars, Olympic curl bar, Olympic open ended trap bar.
Assortment of rubber bands
Adjustable ankle weights up to 20lb each.
Eliptical machine
Treadmill
Various other attachments and Knick knacks.

I as considering a ghb or a reverse hyper, then I saw that thing and I’m on the fence. Definitely won’t get a smith. But a different cable crossover/functional trainer is a solid idea.

I'd be worried it might become self-aware and kill me.

I have their Tib Bar, very high quality, helped a lot with my shin splints; I wouldn't mind one of those, but I have a cheapo Roman Chair from Amazon that works well and was only $100.
Short cuts to success are often paved with lies.
1/13/16: Massive hernia.
5/10/16: Finally back to lifting, light but improving.

A foam balance pad will help with the shin splints too. Stand one foot at a time until your shins are on fire.
