Titan Adj. Squat/Dip Rack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is not just a power rack alternative for space challenged apartment dwellers.
The adjustable dipping bars are fantastic! rock solid and sturdy due to turn knobs that hold the uprights firmly in place unlike the wobbly and potentially dangerous uprights of ironmind's vulcan racks.
Ideal for benching, squats and seated presses. One can also purchase an optional chin bar and wrist roller attachment.
Safety stands can also be bought for maximum safety.
I am very pleased with this well made gym equipment!

Body-Solid Multi Press Rack Package Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I looked at and compaired prices and this seemed like the best deal. The quality is excellent! The weight plates all got shipped in one crate. You will probably what two strong people on the day it is delivered. Assembling this took awhile, but I went slow and thought about what I was doing. There are not instructions, just a picture of the parts and where they go. I would recommend having two 3/4" sockets on hand, it will make assembling easier. I just got this yesterday, so I haven't done much, but I can tell you this is solid and the plates are great quality. I highly recommend this! I should mention that I have worked at professional gyms and I'm 39 years old and I chose this as the cornerstone of my home gym.

Body Solid 11-Gauge Pro Power Rack Model GPR378 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)A while back I told a physical therapist I knew that I was getting a Body Solid power rack to replace my old cage; which I had built from wood about ten years ago. He shook his head and said "you should have gone with Tuff Stuff".
I got the cage in and assembled it a couple weeks ago, and now I see what he meant. It's ok, but for the price, I would have expected a lot more.
On the plus side, the cage itself is simple, yet solid design. It looks and feels like it will take a lot of abuse. The cage was easy to assemble, even though the instructions were pretty sparse.
Now for the downside; I also got the lat attachment, which is of a much flimsier design. There is a significant amount of friction; more than the cheapo MPEX lat pulldown that it was supposed to replace. The directions for assembling the lat attachment did not match the apparatus; which turned a two-hour task into 8 hours of frustration. I managed to get it together, but ended up with three bolts left over.
Bodysolid makes the claim on their website that the cage will fit any brand of bench. That is true if you only plan to use the cage for bench presses and squats. I'm still trying to find a way to comfortably and safely perform incline presses and shoulder presses with my York adjustable incline bench. If they would have made the cage just a foot deeper, that would have solved numerous headaches. Clearance for the cage is at about 6'2"; so if you are any taller, you'll be ducking down a lot. The folks at Bodysolid were less then helpful on these issues.
Both the liftoffs and safety bars are held in place by cotter pins; whenever you want to change the bars around, you have to pull out the pin, and then remember to put it back in. I can easily see those pins getting lost pretty quickly.
This cage also does not support any attachments for doing dips; which the competitors do.
There is, however, one advantage (which I do not think Bodysolid meant to do, and once they catch wind of it they'll probably figure out a way to eliminate it.) The holes perfectly fit one-inch steel pipes; which are purchasable at most hardware store. Using some of these and a bunch of screw-on caps, I was able to fashion some extra lift-offs so that I don't have to keep moving the lift-offs around. I'm also working on turning some of the unused holes on the cage into olympic weight holders; using a similar setup.
In summary; its not bad, but for the price, I expected something much better.

Champion Power Rack Gym Equipment Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this item because it was rated for heavy weight and had a tall base since I am 6'7". But the width is much smaller than I expected and the j hooks that you lift the weight off of move thus causing safety concerns the weight may slide or fall off. There are also 3" spacers between heights which I would prefer 1". On the positive side it is very sturdy and can handle a lot of weight. I have no problem putting 600 pounds on the safety spotter for doing partial deadlifts and squats. It is easy to put together and was delivered promptly. Not to mention the price was good. If I had to take it back I probably would and look for something with a wider base, 1" spacers and j hooks that fit differently.

Body Solid Multi-Press Rack GPR370 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have very good things to say about Body-Solid. I have at least five of their pieces of equipment in my home exercise regimen. Their equipment is well-designed, with the user in mind, well-built, and, though made in China, is constructed with excellent quality control. It is, as they advertised, built to last a lifetime.
I received this machine by FedEx (about 180 lbs) in two boxes. Shipping costs are a factor in shopping for price on this rack. I got free shipping. I estimate the freight would be around $100.00.
It took me about two hours to fully assemble. The good news is that I was able to assemble the entire rack with only a 3/4" socket and a 3/4 " box wrench.
I think that who ever made the assembly instructions did not talk fully with the design engineers. This is really well-designed. The picture and the instructions show the racks on the outside of the vertical supports. It works fine if you assemble it this way. However, if you assemble it this way you can only use 7 foot olympic bars. I assembled it with the racks on the inside of the vertical supports.
You have to reverse the racks so the the numbering on the racks are on the inside, and, you have to reverse the safeties. However, with the racks and safeties reversed I can comfortably use a 6 foot olympic bar for curls, in addition to a 7 foot bar for bench presses and squats.
If you can obtain this at a decent price, including shipping, then it is a fantastic bargain. It almost replaces most Smith machines, a bench press rack, a squat rack, a weight tree, and, with a bench, can be used for presses, dumbells, or, without a bench, can be used for overhead presses and jerks at failure point.
A note for mature users: I am 54, and, after fracturing both shoulders I am slowly coming back to condition. For rehab, this machine is ideal. The safeties are very secure, and, it gives you the confidence to push through the pain, and, develop the muscles you need for support while healing.
This item gets and "excellent" from me all the way around. . . .

Fitness professional, coaches, and personal trainers agree that a heavy-duty rack with easy-to-use adjustments and a barbell set go a long way in the world of strength training. Freeweight training is most effective when the user feels safe enough to use heavy weight and push the envelope.

PowerLine PSM144X Smith Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is not a good machine if you can lift any substantial amounts of weight. It's a little unstable. The hooks that lock into the holes so you can spot yourself don't always line up very well and that kind of sucks when you've just tired yourself out and you want to rack it but you can't...

A true powerhouse that's often imitated but never duplicated, the PowerLine PSM144X Smith Machine combines the sophistication of free weight power and resistance with the safety and control of a machine.

Once you load on the weights, the bar lifts and lowers in a controlled manner, so you needn't worry about losing your balance during a lift or loading on more weight than you can handle.

Champion Barbell Step Squat Rack Gym Equipment Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This rack is perfect for home use. You can do squats confidently w/o a spotter. Great for military presses also. The rack is fairly large. Make sure you have enough room, it sticks out into the room a bit. More than the picture looks. It will stick out even more if you put plates on the holders near the wall. The top position is for people probably taller than 5'10 or so. If shorter you can easily use a lower pin to start your squats, with not problem all all, it appears designed for multi height users. It does take up a fair amount of room but you can store things like roman chairs, and exercise balls inside it when not in use. I highly recommend this rack. An extremely safe way to do squats.
Assembly note: This rack is easy to assemble. You can do it in about 20 minutes. It's MUCH easier though if you have a second person hold the upright pieces while you attach the cross beams. These are tall, top-heavy, unwieldy pieces to try to hold and bolt at the same time.
Shipping note: I's sure it was a fluke, but my package ARRIVED WITHOUT ANY BOLTS, NUTS OR WASHERS. The diagram clearly shows metric bolts, and lists the size. I'm sure it was an oversight. The rack comes in a large, thin rectangular box. Inside is another sealed box. I thought it contained the bolts but did not. (Only had the plate holder attachments). I did not want to wait to use it so I went to the hardware store and picked up the bolts, nuts and washers for under $10.00 I realize this would infuriate most people (rightfully so). But the product itself is so excellent I still give it 5 stars. And thankfully all the bolts on the entire rack are the same size. It assembles very quickly (about 20 minutes).

Valor Athletics Inc. BD - 8 Deluxe Squat Rack with Plate Storage Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is great in so many ways.
1) It looks great
2) It is portable, space saver
3) Affordable
4) Great for Squatting AND Benching!
I love this can be put away when not being used. I like the black, gray, chrome colors. It is pretty sturdy and adjustable in many ways. The weight plate storage pegs make a huge difference because it also gives more stability to the base, giving more confidence when working out. I am using this as an alternative to a traditional weight bench that takes up too much space and can't be moved. I think that this is even better than the folding weight benches. I am uploading a few pictures so you can get a good look at these. In the stock product images they kind of look HUGE but they actually are not big at all. This even comes with a small nail polish looking bottle of touch-up paint. I use it with my folding dumbbell bench that I also purchased on Amazon. The free PRIME 2 day shipping is awesome!!

Squat Stands Review

(More customer reviews)I have a limited workout space and use a smaller, non-Olympic bar. Since I can place these where I need them, I can use them with my bench as as well as for squats. They are well made and easy to assemble. All the parts and tools are included although a ratchet wrench made things much faster. I would highly recommend these to anyone but especially to those with limited space

PowerLine PSS60X Squat Rack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)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.

Combo Squat Bench Rack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this rack mostly for squats, but also with the hope that I would be able to use it for other exercises. I am rather pleased. The top rack is adjustable, and allows me to easily place the weight on my shoulders. I am 5'11. The second rack is adjustable through out the height of the rack. It allows easy racking for bicep curls or dead lifts. The rack is pretty stable too, I put 25 weights on it and it is very secure. I would give it 5 stars but it is just a tiny bit narrow, more narrow than my bench press.

Best Fitness BFPR10 Multi Press Rack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)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).
