Power Rack Squat Rack with Pulley System, 1000LBS Power Cage Half Rack with Pull Up Bar,Safety Bar and Landmine,Gym Rack for Weight Lifting, Bench Press and Squat, with Weight Bench

Came in 2 big boxes and it was heavy as expected. It was also intimidating at first when you open the boxes and see all the pieces and instructions, but it was built in 4 hrs without any problems.It is very sturdy and holds its balance well as the bottom frame is wide. It doesn't weigh a ton after it is built and can be manuevuered around with some help. No wobbling or weak spots as I could tell. The frame is pretty much firm. I did notice after tightening some bolts the paint was starting to chip and bubble around it. So they must of used cheap paint or not let it cure.. I'd prefer having tight screws than worrying about paint so it is what it is. This set comes with a lot of accessories and I think it's not a bad deal considering an annual gym membership cost. Overall quality of the pull cords and pulley system is pretty good. I had to lubricate the chrome slides that the weights go up and down on with silicone spray and it glides like butter. Something they must of gotten mixed up on were the red bar support brackets were sent wrong. I got 2 of the same side. They are suppose to latch to the frame on opposite sides as the instructions show. It still mounts on the opposite frame bars but just latches on from the same side so it still does what it's suppose to, so it's not a big deal.I would recommend.

I was a bit worried with only one other review and nothing online about this rack so hopefully my review can fix that issue for someone else. I bought this because I wanted a squat rack but needed the pulley, and a full cage seemed overkill for my needs. First results it seems pretty sturdy. I’d say it took be about 4.5 hours to set up (came in two heavy boxes) but to my fault I did have to take it apart twice to fix something because I read the instructions slightly wrong. Pull-up bar seems to hold my weight fine (175lbs). I will have to oil the chrome bars the pulleys use but otherwise the pulley system seems good. My only concern I will say is that I have fear the pegs that hold the weight + the pegs for the pulley won’t hold the weights with the tension, but as of right now I haven’t had issues with that so I will come across that if it happens. Right now, I have 3 plates (135lbs) on them and it isn’t breaking yet so that’s a good sign. I will update in the future once I use it more. Hope my photos help since I couldn’t find any of this rack online.

the posts are 2x2, but the holes are smaller than 1 inch. so the attatchments that are widely made for 2X2 rack with 1 in holes... will not work. this is a big reason i purchased this rack . clearly says the wrong info on the description.... otherwise the rack seems pretty sturdy, once there is weight on the back posts....

First and foremost if you are a serious weight lifter and like to go heavy, you probably will want to pass on this and get one a good bit more expensive that is better quality. I bought this because me and my brother had a cage that he wanted to move to his house. That cage while old was a heavy duty solid sturdy rack similar in style to this one minus the pulley system, but the big difference is that the old one I could throw weights around, sling around on the pull up bar, bump into it and it would never budge. This rack feels like a toy compared to that one. However, in my old age(33yr old) I have decided to focus more on lower weight controlling negative motion and slightly higher rep count, so I am not having any issues with this rack, but it just has a cheap flimsy feel to it. I am sure it can handle anything I am doing, but again if you go super heavy and like to throw your weights around you may want to be careful. The pulley system is decent, again I don't know if I would trust going super heavy with it, but it has done well and was one of the main things I wanted from this particular rack, since I no longer do squats due to back issues and instead I have a nice leg press/hack squat machine that I use instead of regular squat lifts. I also have a pull up/dip station as well, so I do not use the pullup bar on this. I also mainly do dumbbell bench press workouts, so I rarely even use the rack. The landmine attachment works well and I love using it and again the pulley system for what I've used it for with pull downs, row, tricep exercises has worked well. The assembly was extremely easy, and I was able to put it together by myself in less than 2 hours, but I would recommend using a ratchet to tighten bolt/nuts, but there really wasn't anything difficult for one person to assemble. You will likely need to put something to grease up the bars where the weight holder slides up and down when using the pulley system. I had to force everything down into place and when it was fully assembled pulling on the cord couldn't even move it because it was so tight. I added something to grease it up and move it up and down a couple times and then it started gliding smoothly, however I feel I will likely have to reapply something every so often. Ultimately, for me personally as seriously as I lift and because I am used to high quality equipment, I would not buy it again, but I also feel like it will be adequate for what I need. For the casual lifter this is a good option for a reasonable price.

The box came missing some items. This happens with deliveries sometimes. It’s all about how the company responds, and this one responded quickly.The product wasn’t too difficult to assemble and so far works as advertised.

I really like the construction of this rack. It is sturdy. It is affordable.I have a few criticisms. I’m dropping one star because the holder for the barbell is too small and is placed in a position where it isn’t very usable. First, I couldn’t get any of my CAP barbells to hang on it. Then when I went to put Olympic plates on the barbell I noticed an obvious issue. If the hooks are at squat height, you can’t load the bar. I had to uninstall the hook before leg day. What a pain.I considered dropping a star for tip over risk too but it’s probably not a warranted criticism. This is designed to be anchored in the floor. Without those anchors I was concerned about the weights being loaded primarily on the back feet AND failing a lift where 150-250lbs is crashing onto the safeties. I moved the rack closer to a wall so I have some added peace of mind. I’m sure anchoring it would provide the same thing.There are better racks out there but for the price this is good. It has its flaws but I really like it!
