After researching online and in person for a decent bench press for the house, somewhere between amateur and professional, I decided on this rack and the accompanying bench, the Best Fitness BFFID10 FID Bench (see my review for the bench on its page).First off, this was really easy to assemble. Two different sizes of bolts for two different holes. That was the most difficult part. I live alone and had it assembled by myself in less than 20 min. Everything you need is in the box, including two wrenches for attaching and tightening the bolts; no additional tools are required.The rack feels extremely solid and sturdy. (Unfortunately, I can't find the weight limit anywhere, so I emailed the company and am awaiting a reply.) The adjustable lift-offs are easily removed and adjusted, as are the safeties. If you exercise alone, you definitely need a safety system like this one. If I rest the barbell on the safeties, it snugly touches my chest, which is perfect as that allows for full range and depth of motion. I can now max out without worrying about getting trapped or injuring myself.For some reason, the measurements listed for this rack are incorrect. You need AT LEAST 46" of clearance between the collars of any barbell you are using. When I purchased my weights at a local store, I had to get an Olympic bar, because it was the only one that would fit. Some of the smaller 5' and 6' bars will not work with this rack, as the space between collars is too small. That will be a deal breaker for some folks, but for me it's cool because it means it's capable of handling the larger bars and weights.If you are planning on using this rack with a bench other than the accompanying Best Fitness bench, be sure to take measurements first. The bar across the bottom of this rack could prevent other benches from working successfully. Be sure to consider that when looking for a bench.All in all, five stars. Very simple, sturdy, efficient design, which is all you really seed with a press rack. One thing I like to have seen is a storage system for weight plates, perhaps across the back legs. It would be nice to have somewhere to store the bigger plates when not using them. Certainly not a deal breaker though.

By mr. siggie
Been using for a couple of months and am quite happy with the product. Assembly was quick & fast. Noticed there were two stable positions (vertical bars slightly closer at the top or slightly wider at the bottom).Best features:* The safety bars (both squats and bench presses) are extremely useful when you don't have a spotter.* Easily do both squats & bench presses on the same side by adjusting height.* Compact footprint. You still need an 7 ft Olympic sized bar. A 6 ft bar will do if the separation between the joints is standard (I think it's 52.5" or so).* Price! Couldn't find too many in this range that offers the safety bars as well.Cons:* The horizontal bar at the bottom is mounted a little high, so it can interfere with some benches. I have a folding bench and need to swap the front-back directions to get it to fit. Standard workout benches probably won't have this issue. So buy this first, and then the bench.* Doesn't tell you how much weight you can safely use. I have a 300lb set, but am not using all of it right now.Overall, very happy with the product, and would highly recommend to someone who is in need of a compact footprint for doing squats (as well as bench presses).

By Jay
This is good rack for the money. it arrived very quickly with amazon premium shipping service and all parts and pieces were included. Assembly was fairly quick and simple and there are not a bunch of small parts to assemble which is nice. The bar across the bottom doesn't get in the way much except for squatting, because you do have to step over it to get out of the rack. It is a minor annoyance that you learn to work around and can plainly be seen in the design. The safety catch bars are a nice feature, the problem with the safety bars and normal catch bars both is that the rubber is prooly glued and comes off easily. It can still function without the rubber pads of course but causes more grazing obviously. It seems very sturdy however especially considering the footprint. I have loaded up 315lbs + with no wobbly issues. The bench I purchased along with it, Bowflex SelectTech Adjustable Bench Series 3.1 (which I have also reviewed) works perfectly with the rack and have not had any issues with the bottom beam design of the rack. Keep in mind not all benches may work well with this design. Overall it is a great rack for the price and I certainly recommend it for a beginner to advanced lifter.
