Pair of Adjustable Squat Rack Standard 44-70 Inch Barbell Rack, Solid Steel Squat Stands Bench Press Storage Home Gym Portable Dumbbell Stands

An adequate, steel-constructed, frame that will hold up to a "home gym" workout for many years. First, you're not buying high quality commercial gym equipment here for powerlifting. So I'm not reviewing this as a comparison to the rest of the heavy duty products out there. But, this product is perfect for my purpose. I have a multipurpose room in my home which includes a small gym. I like to do barbell bench and squats. I don't lift very heavy anymore so this is ok for the weights I use. I already had a bench so I was looking for a rack only. This product is perfect for that and came in at a very reasonable price ($100.00) well below all of the competition. I was a little skeptical of the price, but it is a solid and stable system, well put together. Easy to assemble, I did it alone in 30 minutes. You have to be sure to follow the directions and put it together right (put the right screws in the right holes)! I am 5'10" and this product has plenty of room under it when I'm lifting up the barbell for squats. Since there are two separate pieces, there is plenty of flexibility as far as set-up and storage. I put 150 lbs on a bar and racked it around 5' high. Then I also adjusted it and did a few bench reps, it handled it very easily. So, in my opinion, this system will handle around 200 lbs very safely. If you are planning on lifting in excess of that, I recommend a professional system and a spotter. I've lifted all my life and use to do very heavy weight. It's no fun rolling an olympic bars with 315 lbs down your chest to your stomach when you go to failure on a bench lift with no spotter. In summary, a well built system at a great price that is sturdy and stable for "home-gym" use. Came as advertised (described and pictured) within a few days of ordering with no delays. I am very happy with this addition to my little set-up.

For me it worked out perfectly. Easy fun assembling, heavy and sturdy enough for home gym. Well packed ( no visible drops or dents on box) all needed is 2 adjustable wrench to put together. Love it as well as the price 👌

This is a well made product. It assembled easily and the directions were good enough. BUT If I had to say some negatives the height adjustment is a little awkward. The screw-in part should be spring loaded and lockable so the holes are easier to feel and find. I think the rubber foot pieces could stay on better. They fall off or loosen every time I move the set. Also they thought to put a rubber strip on the "spotter" pieces but the barbell holder at the top doesn't have one and putting the bar down is a little noisy. I put my own rubber pieces there. All these negatives are minor and I stand by my 4 star rating regardless.

You can build this. If I can build this, you can definitely build this. You will need tools to tighten the bolts. O'Reillys and AutoZone rent out tools FREE, if you don't wanna buy them or don't have them. I used: 1 adjustable wrench 1 17mm wrench As others have said, when putting the bolts in on the feet, you'll need to put them in from the bottom and have the ends come out the top (the opposite of how the manual shows to do) to make sure the bolts dont touch the ground. Also, the bench press arms (that will hold the bar when you bench press), slide them to the bottom, and don't screw in the side bolt until after you have placed your squat bar extender arms in and put their little metal pin thing in. After youve put the squat extenders in place with their designated pins, then screw in your bench press arm pieces. Basically if you want to adjust the bench press arms, its easy. If you wanna adjust the squat extender arms, youll need to first unscrew the bench press arm pieces, let them go to the bottom, then adjust your squat arms with their respective pins. I think I am gonna go buy 2 more pins to use with the bench press pieces instead of the screw in things since it's kind of annoying to have to unscrew and screw back in if youre working out with someone else and you need to change the height of the press or the squat rack. Its not a big deal though. This is a solid rack for the price and especially if you arent planning on adjusting the heights of the press or squat, it's not a bother, which is the case for me. I would probably get sand bags to weigh down the feet if you plan on lifting really heavy. I lift moderate weight and just nicely put the bar back on the rack without needing sandbags. As is, the item is great. I definitely recommend. Just know you're gonna need a couple tools to put it together, and if you lift heavy you'll wanna make sandbags. It's really solid and stable for my 5'7 self, on my wood deck, lifting moderate weight, not needing to adjust the height.

The weight racks are adequate for relatively light weight. They wobble when a barbell is moved onto or off of them but not dangerously so if you are careful. The assembly took a couple of hours and the directions and product illustrations were clear and easy to follow. They look very good, no scratches or dents. The packaging and delivery were also very good. Adjusting the height of the racks between settings for bench press and squats is easy and took me a couple of minutes the first few times but I expect to get faster as I use them more. Overall the racks are OK for a home gym and didn’t cost a lot, $83 for racks and delivery right to the door. They shipped very quickly, just 3 days from when I placed the order. For the price and for my workouts they will be sufficient. Not nearly as sturdy as what you would use at a gym but again, a good purchase for home workouts and the price.

Good Rack for the money. Buying this you need to understand you are not slamming the weight against it and dropping the bar, this a controlled placement rack. Holding weights up to 390lbs is plenty for me. I put this together in an hour not rushing. Biggest complaint I read was directions for putting it together and wobble after. Take your time putting it together. There is no step by step directions, only a picture. Build from the bottom up. The 4 bolts that go on the bottom of each bracket (2 for main post, 2 for support pieces) put the bolt end underneath and nut on top (opposite of directions picture). This way when tightening down the bolt tip does not hit the floor. Lastly, there was a lot of complaints about wobble. This comes from people not squaring the rack. DO NOT tighten the feet of each bracket until last. Put them on loose and put the rest together. Once the rest is together and snugged down, put the entire piece on a flat surface (like a concrete garage or basement). Then put weights on the ends of the feet to keep them firmly planted on the floor. I then placed a magnetic level towards the top of the rack on the post. Then tighten down the foot bolts ensuring the feet are still flat on the ground and the post is level (90 degrees from feet). Last thing is put the rubber end covers on for the feet. This will ensure no wobble. Lastly, if you plan on using anything shorter than a 7' bar, the feet on each stand can get in the way or be a trip hazard. With a 7' bar you have enough clearance.

Absolutely the best purchase I have made for my home gym. I'm an olympic lifter and so I need space to lift in my garage but a wall rack or regular rack takes up too much space. I've seen videos of pro lifters using independent squat stands so I thought I'd give these a try for the price. These are great. I HATE buying something, trying to assemble it, and holes not lining up or screws stripping...like you have one job manufacturers.. This thing went together PERFECTLY! Not complicated, quick, every bolt slid through the holes perfectly. It lowers enough to bench on and was tall enough for my 6'4" friend to squat from. Also the safety arms are REALLY stable and easy to adjust up in down in 2 secs. I sit the bar on them when doing inverted rows or hang cleans and they don't budge. In regards to the tipping issue, you would have to really throw the bar into these to tip them over. When I squat, I walk the bar into the back of the rests and it picks the front feet up off the ground, but I would have to take another giant step to tip them over. And if you watch professional lifters that use these, they do the same thing with their racks. Another bonus: these are super light. I move them all over the place. WAYYYYYY worth the price!!!

This adjustable squat rack is well constructed and a very good value. The hardware and tubing is of good quality and assembly was easy. I would have given this product a 5-star rating if it had not been for the assembly instructions for the base to vertical supports. If the bolts are installed into the base as shown, the self-locking nuts and bolts will mar the floor. If the floor is covered with a mat, this won't be much of a problem. I would suggest that the bolts be reversed so that the heads of the bolts are closest to the floor. This will provide an extra 1/8 to 1/4 inch of clearance between the bolt heads and the floor. Then, the rubber caps on the ends of the box tubing base will provide just enough clearance for the bolts. It remains to be seen just how stable this stand is. There is no horizontal cross-brace between the two vertical stands. Generally, a support like this would have a tendency to rack once a heavy weight bridges the top supports. If the stands rotate while trying to put the bar down, it could be a problem. A cross-brace made of box steel would prevent the latter, but it would have to be curved to be out of the way. There are other stands that offer this cross-bracing feature, but you will have to pay more.

If it works, it works. That’s kind of the best way to describe this thing. It’s definitely a little sketchy — it wobbles, and it doesn’t exactly scream “high quality” when you’re putting it together. But at the end of the day, it does the job. I’ve got about 15 lbs hanging off one right now I know that’s nothing I’m just lazy to put a ton on. but I’ve also stacked over 400 lbs on it before and it held up just fine. So while it might not look or feel super solid, it’s surprisingly strong. I wouldn’t go shaking it around or moving it too much whilst loaded (although I have). It’s not fancy, but it works — and sometimes that’s all you need.

One thing to note - when assembling, point the bolts so that the nut gets threaded on from the top. Instructions had it going on the other way for the center bar and the bolts were just long enough to hit the ground before the padded feet. Also when torquing on the nuts I did too much and it dented the hallow metal so stop before that. Otherwise great product, really love it, easily portable, and can't beat the price.

Really solid. I put 220lbs at the sixth hole and it was still feeling pretty solid.

These are decent for someone starting out doing chest exercises and squats... maybe some shoulder stuff but the bars are atrocious to adjust... between exercises it's a nightmare... you literally have to undo the entire thing just to adjust for incline / neutral and decline bench presses... it's really annoying and cumbersome. It would have been much better if the design was better thought out because having to unscrew 2 knobs, take out the locking pins and then popping plastic protectors off every time you have to lower or raise the barbell holders is just garbage... wastes about 5 minutes of your time every time... they are sturdy and compact so I'll give them that, storage is easy but yeah, the utility of these things for making adjustments is just trash.

Great for a home gym, very stable, sturdy, easy to assemble, good price. Much more stable than expected, functions well
