Best Bang for the Buck HANDS DOWN!
I purchased this as an upgrade to my fitness realty entry level home gym squat rack after having some hands on review time with racks from Titan Fitness, Rogue and a few other brand and wanted an upgrade so I can take advantage of all the 3x3 rack accessories. I can tell you that other than the name and where they are made they are all essentially the exact same erector set of pieces and bolts as the big box name brands. Nothing about these power cages are especially different from one another. For the price if you went with the next most affordable option from the Mikolo you would spend $700-$850 on just the rack alone with no extra components then another $500 for the safety straps, uhmw sandwich j-cup, band pegs, multi grip pull up bar (with really great mounting point and excellent knurling) and the landline attachment. All of the parts are really high quality and the coating is both inside and out on my black and red power cage. This thing really is a tank. I do fitness equipment reviews and we dropped over 400# on the safety straps multiple times with the rack not even bolted down and they caught it every time and the rack didn’t even budge. The steel thickness is not far off even at all if any from what you see on the flagship 3x3 racks from almost every company I’ve used a rack from. This will be in your will and literally last forever. Only thing I can see is paint/coating scratches or chips along the way but that can easily be fixed with spray paint. The only down sides I can see is if someone is a welder or stickler for welds might not like the look and finish of the welds in the rig and components. They are nowhere near the pretty welds you see tig welded on super high end racks but I have zero doubt that they would ever fail for the average or even far above average lifter. I’d you can lift enough weight to break this rack ever then you need a sponsorship and a social media channel because you for sure are a freak of nature. Been lifting all my life and been in the military and nobody I have ever met could overload or kill this rack. If you want something solid and are fine with something not made in the USA then this is the rack for you. Also the company has great customer service that got back to me right away. The jammer arms shipped seperate from my unit and the company made it right. If you buy this Power Rack I recommended getting all the attachments because for the price and sheer quality and functionality you get with them they CANNOT be beat. I’m Finishing the edit of the video review and will post soon. Good Job for this company to make a high quality product at a blue collar budget price and then have the guts and integrity to stand behind it. 10 out of 10! Buy it you won’t regret it!

Best budget 3x3 rack.
Was looking for a budget 3x3 power rack and this looked like the best option after alot of shopping around. You get alot of extras for the price as well. Only took a few hours to assemble by myself with very few tools. I didn't have a client wrench big enough for the big nuts and bolts so I used some big channel locks and vice grips I had to make due. That might be the only think you might have trouble with during assembly so you might have to buy a big Cresent wrench. The bolts need to be that big based off of the location so I understand why they did it that way but it's much larger than most common nuts and bolts so a regular tool set probably won't have anything large enough but a couple Cresent wrenches or channel locks aren't a big expense considering the value of this setup. The other bolts were a 19mm which is in most common tool sets so you should have that if you have your own tools. I like how you don't need alot of tools to assemble it though because most people don't have alot of tools like I do so if you don't have any you don't need to buy much just maybe a 19mm and 3/4 wrench and 2 large Cresent wrenches and you can put the entire thing together. All the parts were in great condition. No scratches or burrs at all. Was impressed with the quality control for the price. This thing is very sturdy as well. I haven't bolted it to the ground and I've racked 255 pounds on the inside and outside of the rack and it didn't budge. It's a very solid rack. Was very impressed by the company and will keep them in mind for future gym equipment purchases for sure. I got mine at $600 with a coupon. I've seen the price fluctuate a little on this and as the company grows so will the price so I'm glad I got it when I did because your not going to find a 3x3 power rack that can compete with this deal for the price.

Good bang for the buck, missing band pegs
This is my first power rack and after doing lots of research I pulled the trigger on this one. It came in three boxes that didn't all arrive the same day, so heads up on that. But overall I'm happy with it and although the paint isn't perfect and there are other imperfections, it is built solid and suits my needs. My only complaint is that my shipment didn't arrive with the band pegs, which is not a huge deal for me, but the customer service hasn't been the greatest. If they do finally send them I'll update this review and provide a little more info as I've had more time to use it.

SOLID HIGH QUALITY RACK AND ATTACHMENTS
Had a minor issue with shipping but customer service was very responsive and made it right quickly. Assembled the rack by myself with help from a rolling set of stairs for the upper crossmembers. All parts assembled without any issue and there were no damaged parts. I am amazed at how solid and sturdy the rack is. I may bolt it down but i dont think its necessary. The attachments are just as heavy and well made. Jammer arms work flawlessly and are very heavy. The leg curl attachment has not arrived yet, but that is the fault of FedEx, which i hate with a passion. At this point i am struggling to find any other cons with the rack or attachments. I like this rack very much so far and would recommend it to friends/family.

This thing is a TANK!!!! Feels like 11 gage
I absolutely love this rack just put it together and I’m beyond shocked 😳, this should honestly be closer to $1200 with all the attachments that come with it!! Description says 12 gage Steel but no lie I’m 98% sure it’s 11 gage because it’s sturdy, heavy and built like a tank, I was scared to get it because it didn’t have a lot of reviews but I rolled the dice and I’m so glad i did! I was looking a rouge or a rep fitness but their expensive to get this quality for half the price as those others & all the attachments just amazing! If your on the fence buy this over those other trust me, building it was smooth not over complicated, shipping was great, zero complaints!
