Power Cage, 2000LB Power Rack with Independent Dual Pulley System, Multi-Function Home Gym Workout Machine for Cable Crossover

Perfect for my home gym upgrade. This rack is well built and has nice stability. I was able to assemble it myself after taking the individual pieces out of the boxes. I recommend using actual tools and not the simple tool included. The cable system is smooth and easily adjusts to perform a variety of exercises. The addition of a bench, Olympic weight bar, and weights will fill in the rest of the exercises to get a varied full body workout.

I absolutely love my Half Power Cage! The cables move smoothly and easily. Adjusting the height of the cable attachments is simple, all the way up for pull-downs and to the bottom for floor rows. One inch hole spacing makes adjustments precise. The safety bars are long enough to provide security and J hooks are solid when weighted. Both are easy to adjust. There are different hold positions on the pull-up bar and when used the rack is rock solid. I appreciate the storage bars for plates. My room is 11' x 12' and there is plenty of room for the rack and accessories. However, I use a women's olympic length barbell (6'6"), and it is too long to use the landmine attachment easily in the room. Assembly was straightforward for two people. This is a high quality piece of equipment and the centerpiece of my home gym.

Before I proceed I have to say that they have a great customer service. I'm sure they're not here in the US but they get back to people in a timely manner. Something that must be clear and kept in mind is that this is for home use therefore you can't expect to have the stability of the regular gym equipment. Mine is sitting on a 1/2" rubber mat and it is pretty stable. Another factor is that I'm only 154lbs so it doesn't shake too much due to my weight. Assembly is pretty simple. With the help of the instructions and a video from YouTube, was an easy task. Quality - I'll give it a 9 from 1 to 10. The reason why is the paint starts to chip off too soon from the safety bars. Nothing wrong with that because it doesn't affect the performance of them. Another reason why is a 9, is because the thread of the nuts that are built into the frame where you can store the weight plates, was stripped and couldn't tighten up the screws. I must say that I contacted the manufacturer and they corrected the issue. Actually, I was very surprised and happy with the way they handled it. I won't get into details. Performance - I'll give it a 9. Again, considering this a home power rack, is somewhat narrower than the regular gym equipment, making it feel weird when doing chest exercises like the one where you set the handles all the way to the top. Pull ups are uncomfortable too due to the short length of the bar and the steep angle at the ends. I feel my hands start to slide down due to the steep angle. It's not the end of the world, at least for me, but if you have a wider frame then it's going to feel way worse. The same thing happens with the lat pull down bar that comes with it, steep angles and kind of short. I decided to remove the feet attachment to do row exercises. This could be just because I don't have too much room in the bedroom where I set it up but I did notice that the range of motion is too short. The angle of the attachment pretty much limits you to do the exercises seated on the floor. Cannot do it sitting on the bench. The rollers are pretty smooth and even though they tend to tangle from time to time. It's just a matter of untangling them and they work fine. I've noticed this with the heavy plates, 45's though. Other than that, I'm happy with the purchase which I've had for the past three months. I love cable exercises because of the constant tension on the eccentric part of the movement. I also like it because I was able to do rack pulls again and perform a series of exercises that I couldn't do before the purchase. One thing to add, when doing rack pulls I use a couple of pcs of plywood to bring my knees to the correct height. This is because of the location of the first holes on the rack. As you can see, you have to play with it and be a little creative, but it is a nice rack. Would definitely recommend it despite the above mentioned. A gym membership these days is around 50 bucks, at least here in NYC so do the math. I hope this review is of any help for those thinking about getting it. Thanks !!!

Was pleasantly surprised by the sturdiness of this system. Was already making plans to bolt it down in the garage but after assembling it I have been lazy as its not really needed. Did a few pullups after tightening everything down and had no concerns. I still plan on doing it eventually but just for a safety factor when my boys are working out. Assembly was easy to follow. The only issue i had was cracking one of the weight sleeves that go over the bars. That being said I overtightened it. Both pully systems seem to be decent and more than able to handle the lifting and workouts I plan on doing. There is an option to get upgraded pulleys but decided to see how these ones do first and go from there. Will update my review in the future if they fail causing a need for the upgraded ones. If you're not a powerlifter and looking for a budget friendly system that still gives you everything you need for full body workouts this is it.

It's been great so far. The boxes arrived together in good shape. I have build experience and found it to be easy, but just pay extra close attention to the instructions when you're setting up the cables and pulleys. Follow it closely and the cables will run smooth and can retract fully into the pulley properly. Since assembly I've pretty much used most of its features. All the attachments are in good condition. The rack stands firm and does not lean if installed correctly. If you shake the rack there is very minimal movement or swaying after the bolts are tightened. It seems tough which is exactly what I was hoping for. Very happy with this and if you're looking for a functional rack that saves space, look no further. I'm already checking out the mikolo leg press but there aren't as many reviews for it (but they're mostly positive). I'll probably get it when my wallet recovers from this one.

high quality, sturdy and an easy build.

Juste parfait pour un garage/sous-sol
