Goplus Power Rack Heavy Duty Adjustable Power Cage Multi-Function Fitness Squat Cage for a Complete Home Gym, Strength Training and Muscle Building

The product itself is actually very good quality, very heavy and reliable and the putting it together wasn’t bad at all.... BUT... the product claims to have a height of 80 inches... I bought it because my basement ceiling is 82.5 inches (thought I’d give my self a 2.5 inch buffer for error) and the squat rack is actually 83 inches tall.. sure the 4 poles are exactly 80 inches but how bout that 3 inch connection frame that sits in top of those.. pretty annoying that they would just ball park the height of the unit... idk what I’m gonna do with this thing now.

First things first: This is no Rogue or any other brand name rack that costs half your organs. This is a budget-friendly rack that takes up little space and is pretty bare bones as far as racks go.I have a slowly growing gym in my basement which has a height of about 85 inches or so, which eliminates a lot of racks. Aiming for a budget rack makes it even harder, but then I stumbled upon this rack which is just short enough to fit in my basement.The packages arrived four days early, which was nice, and assembly was easy. I did have a part that was partially bent but a couple whacks with a nylon hammer fixed that issue. Overall I am impressed with the quality so far, and unless something happens down the road that makes me want to change my review, I am happy with my purchase.Update 1: I have noticed that the "scratch proof" coating has already begun to come off, and I have not used it that heavily (maybe done 2-3 sets of bench presses since purchasing) and has even been scrapped off from simply inserting the safety rods and lift off rods. Otherwise nothing else has come up, but have lowered it by a star due to the coating being so easily removed.Update 2 6/21/2019: Have been using the rack 2-3 times a week since purchasing and there is an excessive amount of paint removed. The method the safety support bars has to be checked quite often as they can wiggle free if left alone which can result in an accident and/or damage to the rack.

I’m too lazy to work out so this doubles as a clothing rack!

This cage is perfect for the home gym. This is a very solid cage! Well designed and heavy duty. Assembly took me a while since I need to find the correct tool. It has plenty of room for squatting within the cage. All the features are great. I am happy with my purchase!

Overall this was a decent buy at $449.99 plus $49.99 shipping. Item shipped more quickly than expected.That being said the welding on this unit leaves a lot to be desired. The bar that the knee pads go onto for the lat pulldown is poorly welded, you can literally shine a light through from one side to the other. It was as if the manufacturer was trying to save 5 cents by only half welding these areas.. Also, if you are taller than 5'9" your knees may not fit under the pads because they have a very limited ability to be adjusted.The handles on the bicept curl bar are not attached properly and the grips move slightly when in use.The instructions for this unit are absolutely terrible. All you get are a couple of pictures and a ton of arrows, with no written instructions detailing what to assemble first. However, my personal favorite is that some of the bolts on the "diagram" are mislabeled. If you are not mechanically inclined, pass.

update 191207: The safety clips on the supports can be easily dislodged from behind the uprights. Just be aware and check them before every lift. Since I never move the supports, I might just zip tie the clips to the uprights. Other than that, the original review stands. Original:Well made, well packaged. Fairly substantial steel, fit together perfectly in less than an hour (by myself). Instructions were fairly clear, but I used them more as a guide. Laying out the pieces first made it easy to assemble. First pass I didn't tighten the bolts too much. Once everything was together I made a second pass and tightened everything up. No wobble. Two washers out of about 24 were missing so I had to rummage around for a substitute. You could put them on later if you wanted. Note, the bolts/nuts are metric (the horror the horror :-) ). I did the first pass with a channel lock and a crescent wrench. Second pass I used a metric box wrench and the crescent wrench. All bolts, nuts and washers were in two blister packs. The blister pack for the bolts had broken open and about 10 were loose in the main box. Not a big deal.

The rack I received is fine. 1 person can assemble in about 2 hours. Sturdy cage after you put it together. You get the exact number of hardware to assemble which means if you lose some hardware they didn't send extra. So long as the cage you get isn't defective like other reviews it should be perfect. Also comes in 2 packages that will more than likely arrive on different days and once the 1st package arrives Amazon will mark it as "Delivered" even though you may still be waiting for package 2.

Literally just finished the assembly. So far I love it, but have not used it, so this review is more about assembly than usage. (I'll report back in 6 months to a year on usage). However, from what I can tell, it's put together well, heavy duty, sturdy, and will be the "entertainment center" for my garage gym.Assembly: first you need 2 socket wrenches, 2 17mm sockets, 2 3/4" sockets, and an Allen wrench set. There really are no "instructions", but more pictures that show you where the screws and boots go.All the bolts, nuts, washers etc. come in a cardboard plastic wrap. Nothing is marked to the specifications of the manual, so it's a guessing game trying to figure out which bolts go where. While I did put a few smaller bolts in the wrong place, it wasn't a big deal and didn't set me back much. The non marking of the bolt/nut package is not a show stopper, but would be nice if the manufacturer added it.All in all, it took about 5-6 hours to assemble by myself. (I'm a male with average skills).
