Nice Rack
By Hiker
I didn't get mine from Amazon (I ordered it from Jesup Gym), but I thought I'd review it here. This is a nice rack for us non-supermen that aren't moving stacks of 45's every day. I would have no fear putting 300 to 500 pounds on it, but if I were lifting much more than that, I'd probably shop for a stronger rack (maybe one day). Anyway, since there aren't really any instructions (just an exploded drawing) I'll offer my suggestions on assembly.The way I assembled it was to put the bottom 3 pieces together first (put the feet and plastic parts on now), then add the rear uprights, then the top back piece, then a front upright and top side piece, repeat for other side, then chin bar. Snug the bolts at first, then tighten them all when it's all assembled. Get them good and tight but don't over tighten because the tubing will start to bend in with a lot of force. You'll need two 3/4" wrenches (a socket wrench and spanner work best). This worked well for me doing it by myself and took about 45 minutes including opening the boxes and laying out the parts.This rack comes in 3 boxes and can be shipped via a regular carrier. This might be nice to know for those who don't live where a freight carrier can easily get to you. Anyway, this rack, a bench, and a 300 pound set can take you a long way. Add some dumbbells and you'll have a nice little home gym.

OVERVIEWThis cage is capable of handling serious work-outs. I'd feel comfortable using 300lbs of weight on it. I'm 6'1 and the proportions of the cage fit me just fine. It's sturdy & has a relatively small footprint. The best part of using a cage is that you can self-spot and, therefore, push yourself w/ less risk of injury.If you add a 300lb weight set (Weider's rubber-coated is an incredible buy and will not rust), an adjustable bench (FID46 is good choice - sturdy & comes w/ leg extension, incline, decline) & dumbbells (adjustable take up less space, but Weider's rubber-coated plates can be used as makeshift dumbbells), you will have a very functional gym that goes beyond general fitness.I looked at a couple of other cages, and BodySolid's Powerline is the best buy.ASSEMBLYThe unit arrives in three large boxes. It's heavy (which is good) and surprisingly easy to assemble. All parts were included with my shipment and all parts fit as they should.EXERCISES (after adding weights & a bench)Everything you need to get in shape and build all parts of your body with the safety of self-spottingCONSNo major complaint. The 2 lift-offs and 2 safety rods are painted. When slid through the cage holes, paint peels from them every time. Not a big deal, but they should've been left unpainted.EXTRAS10-year warranty, chin-up barThe lat tower is an option, but I find chin-ups much more effective at building back muscle & symmetry. Plus I save money and space.I'm 210lbs and this unit is able to support substantial weight on the lift-offs while I perform chin-ups. Though not professional-grade for power lifters who use over 400lbs, if you're still wondering if it's stable or sturdy enough for you to lift heavy weights, the answer is absolutely. This unit is hearty enough for you to get buffed. I'm pleased with my purchase.

I didn't buy my PPR200x from amazon, I actually got it from sam's club, but I figure I might as well right a review here for everyone to read.This rack comes in 3 boxes that are approx. 45-50lb each. Upon opening, the first thing I did was grab the single page manual and started organizing the parts. You're going to need two 3/4" wrenches. The instructions, like what many have already mentioned, is basically a blown up diagram of the rack itself, but it incredibly EASY to follow, im talking about IKEA level here. I built it myself and it took me roughly 50 mins. Would've been about half that time if I had help.As far as stability, its very stable. I am 5'10 and weigh 180lbs and there is no shaking/wobbling of the rack while doing pullups. I have loaded 400lbs worth of plates on it already and this thing handles it all too easily. The max load capacity is marked at 600lbs, but we all know putting 601lb wont tear the thing down. In all honesty, I think this thing can easily handle 1100-1200lb of weight, but of course the manufacturers have to put a 'safe' number. Understandable.However, I do have 2 complaints:1.The paint chips off way too easily. After my first workout, all the paint from the hooks, and half the paint from the safeties have scrapped off already. Personally i dont care as I use this to train and not for show. But this may suck for those that worry about how their equipment looks. On the flip side, a tiny bottle of paint is included in the packaging for situations like this, but dont bother as you will run of out it quickly or you plan on painting over it after every workout. Some guy had but foam noodles in his safeties, thats a good idea.2.The 3' hole spacing sucks. You're just going to have to get lucky when it comes to benching safety placement. A right bench height could save you the trouble, but for me, my bench was in a 'dead zone'. The only safety above my chest height was too high therefore I couldn't complete the whole bench press movement as the bar will hit the safety before the bar got to my shirt. This was solved by adding extra padding underneath my bench. Yes, it states the hole spacing prior to purchase, but you just have to get lucky with your weight bench height.As you can see, these complaints are more of a personal thing, therefore it does not warrant a removal of a star. Overall, this is a very good beginner/intermediate rack. This rack, a 300 olympic set, and a solid heavy duty bench, will take you a LONG way.
