By Cory C. Martinson
I have very limited space so a "cage"-type squat rack just wouldn't do for me. Also, I do reps with a little under 400 pounds so it couldn't be a rinky-dink thin-walled round-tube pair of uprights like you see bolted onto cheap weight benches. This rack is a decent compromise for those of us with a little space and the desire to squat fairly heavy in that space. Any heavier and I'd be wise to go to the gym and have spotters on hand anyway. In my opinion, this was a solid purchase I'd recommend.

By Phillip
Sturdy as can be. However I'd recommend putting the back end of the feet against a wall or something or it can shift around a bit when you're putting the bar back on the rack after a heavy bench. Or at least have it on a rubber mat. It would be good to have a spotter with you so it doesn't tilt back if you slam your weight back on the rack so it doesn't tip over. If you're careful that's not an issue, or if you wanted to somehow bolt it into your floor. :)Also the height-adjust holes are spaced a little far apart so it's not that precise as to how you might like your benching, about 3 inches apart. I haven't tried it for squats yet. You'd definitely need a spotter for squats because obviously there's nothing to catch the weight for you if you can't stand back up with a heavy weight. It took me 15 minutes to put the thing together myself using 2 wrenches.For the price though it's definitely solid. You can get a Gold's Gym olympic 45# bar at Walmart for $45, same bar they use at normal gyms, and olympic plates are there too for about $0.80/pound or find them at Sports authority or something if they go on sale.

By Ryan H.
I was very excited to receive this rack. After reading most reviews it seemed to be a good fit for my new home gym. After setup I was not entirely impressed. Here are the pros and cons:Pro:-Very simple setup, four bolts and done. Solid frame, clean look. Was able to easily assemble on my own in under 20 min.-Comes with a small canister of touch-up paint (which was needed right out of the box from shipping but that's part of the cons)-Small footprint, easily moved (that's a plus and minus) and can fit in almost any space.-Spacing between the columns are plenty wide, makes it able to do wide and narrow grips without issue for chest press. That was a big plus for me. I cannot stand racks that have the columns spaced exactly where you naturally want to place your hands on the bar.Con:-Not that shipping faults the product, but the box was very beat up and one of the column tops was sticking out of the box when received. Two of the pieces had broken free of their zip ties and were clanking around inside. Several areas had scratches and nicks in the paint. (Not a big deal but not a plus either)-Biggest gripe, the unit is just too light. After assembly I racked a 45lb barbell with two 35lb weights and slid my bench in place. I was only going to test my arm stretch to make sure I set the columns at a proper height but decided to do a few light reps. When I finished I went to place the bar back and nearly lost my grip as the rack tilted backwards when I hit the backing of the placement holders. Also, the holders themselves are very narrow, not allowing a lot of movement when returning an olympic bar.I was not using heavy weight and I did not slam the bar into the rack. I was very surprised how easily the rack is tilted and moved.-This unit would benefit greatly to a simple design inclusion of pegs to place weights on the front legs. With how light the unit is I'm very surprised this was not part of the design. I can lean 45's over them but it's not as reliable and takes from the look (pegs are safer and cleaner)I was very tossed on a two or three star review and I ultimately went with three because it's still a functional rack. Users just need to be even more cautious than usual while lifting and returning weights. However if I would have been able to test this rack prior to purchase, I never would have bought it.
