Powerline PPR200X Power Rack

Deliverd in 3 boxes, generally all the same weight. Packed well. As long as you keep track of the 4 different size bolts, assembly with jsut the picture is straight forewar. I'm no handyman, an redid certain parts because it would "fit" but the holes were facing the wrong way - i.e. just pay attention. As long as you keep weight on the j-hooks it's stable to hold for pull ups. It's not as deep as I envisioned, but that's my fault. Anyway, I'm 6' 3" 270 lbs and can squat and deadlift just find. It's too low to overhead press on the insie, but the safety bars allow for you to place a bar on the outside as well. I use a 6' Standard bar that just fits. Inside I use 7' Olympic bar. I called an they said it's good for 600 lbs - way more than I'll ever squat or bench, especially. The bars and hooks are quick to change and alot of options (holes), I stick a board under bench because I'm between a couple ideally; but you can't expect holes everywhere (every 2" I think) The price was right and it has what I need. I am strongly considering the lat pulldown attachment down the road.

I shopped around for a good power rack and came across this one. It is a good size and seems to be very sturdy. My only concern about buying this rack was that it might not be stable enough to do pull-ups and chin-ups on, but that has not been the case as it is stable. I agree with the other reviewers that the one downside to this rack is not the rack itself, but the bad instructions that are included. Not so bad that you won't be able to put it together, but it might take you an extra half hour than if it would have come with good instructions. Also, I looked at many sites for the best price and Sam's has them beat with the price and free shipping.
