Yeah, I like the directness of the machine at times - especially when it comes to legs. Also, if I want to work just one muscle group I'll use a machine, with free weights you tend to "stabilize" the weight with other muscles aswell, which I generally prefer.

I prefer machines to free weight because with machines it is harder to make wrong movements.

 

I disagree, freeweights give you symetrical movement so both sides are equal. Hammerstregth equipment is a cross between the two and is excellent
