So, I have read the amazon reviews. The reviews on YouTube I have watched time after time. I have done my research, I promise. This istem was kind of like an,
"Oh, my job just got this in stock, I kind of want to buy it just to see how a $130 rack would hold up." And yeah, it is about what I expected. It wobbles from very slight movements when in contact with it. I do not trust the thing to do pull ups on, and I am only 175 pounds max on a bad day. I am not strong, so worrying about weight limit is really not a big concern. However, I am concerned that if I work up to a 150-200 pound squat, and rack the bar on the J-Hooks, that it might not even live up to the 300 pounds safety hype. Which isn't much. Unless your someone like me who is just getting back into lifting for the first time since highschool and are super weak and wasn't ever a strong physical person in the first place. Anyways, just curious if anyone on here has had any experience with this rack? I am currently looking to buy a pre made compatible shed. I might hold off until next summer and get my bankroll looking a little better, because I am not in a fincancaly secure position right now, but with time, things will look better, I hope.

oh, incase anyone is wondering and cannot tell, the bench isn't apart of the power rack. And in my opinion, instead of calling it a power rack/cage, they should just mark this as more of like a squat stand with a pull up bar. I guess I might be a little harsh on it right now. Hoping my mind changes with some actual use. I know a few attatchments I would like to have access to, but not sure if I want to invest in them, for THIS power rack, since I would have to reinvest into another rack/cage with the standard 2-inch holes and standard cuts of steel, which this is 1-inch and not up to standard metal on it. Might even be majority plastic if I was being honest. But, Landmine attatchment aka lat pull down attatchment Safety Catch Attatchment (for failed squats) Dip Attatchment I see the site is under construction, so I can't really get anything now. I hope they still have these and more when the site is done getting worked on. Anyways, that is my feelings thus far. |
