Barball Stand Squat Rack

This is my first time purchasing a barbell rack online & on Amazon. I assumed that the product was in new condition, it was not. Although I am happy with it it’s fairly easy to put together you just have to look at the picture long enough to get it right lol. Toook me about 2hrs to put the damn thing together (alone by the way) if there was 2 people maybe shorter time. Anyway haha, I thought I was paying for a new product and I didn’t get that at all. Some of the polls came rusted not all of them but just 2 of them were. Not complaining but they should put on the page that it is slightly used & not completely “new”. All well. You get what you pay for, it wasn’t cheap or expensive, right in between a fair price. It’s sturdy & strong it’s still a great buy tho! Been building a home gym Since the pandemic & this is a great addition to my gym.

I love this squat rack. It was very simple to assemble. Love that it is adjustable and very easy to move. Very affordable!! Highly recommend this squat rack.

Item arrived earlier than promised. Shipping damage to box, but contents were unharmed and all pieces were included. Instructions were in very small print, in Mandarin and English. Assembly was straight forward...but I had the advantage of reading other reviews that helped me to navigate the assembly. You need to have metric wrenches or sockets, since no tools were included. Do not over torque the nuts, or you will deform the tubing. Stands are fairly solid and stable, after making sure I had everything lightly tightened and on a level surface. The safety catches are not long enough to be convenient, so you have to carefully position the bench and your position on it when bench pressing. All things considered, it was a good purchase, but some things (like the instructions) could have been done better. I haven't tested the weight limit yet, but I'm sure that it will handle the weights of which I am capable.

I was able to do my 5x5 on squat, bench, and OHP on this with some minor adjustments to how I normally lift. As I expected from these not having much weight to them and not having a cross-member support, they are not all too sturdy. Due to this I take a 45lb plate and weigh it down on the stands when I'm benching or doing anything that doesn't require my extra 2 45's and it seems to work fine. However, when squatting it gets a little scary. In one instance I managed to miss the hook to re-rack and 275lbs went slamming down into the safety and tipped one of the stands over. Suffice to say no damage was done to the rack besides some paint chipping so it seems to be somewhat resilient to shocks. Overall, it's a good rack but it's unsteady so I'd suggest weighing the base down if possible. If you can't, then just very carefully re-rack your weights to not tip it and die. Update: The hooks at the top tend to chew into the knurling on whatever bar you're using. To prevent this I bought myself a styrene-butadiene rubber sheet, cut out a small section, and gorilla taped it to the hook where the bar rests. Seems to have fixed this issue for a few months so far.

First, the stands are easy to assemble. I sat on the floor with parts aligned around me and both 17mm wrench and ratchet. Didn’t take 10mn, sitting down. Second, the racks are light yet sturdy. Weather permitting I bring a bar and the racks out on the deck where I keep some plates in one of those Suncast resin boxes (elevate the plates, pvc treillis & 2x4 sections) and enjoy a good pre-commute work out as the sun rises. I’ve put 230lbs. on the highest *pinned* setting and the racks are perfectly stable. Third, the vendor provides good customer support. One of the spring-loaded pins was stuck, and remained so despite giggle-loo and wd40 treatment. Soon after sending a pic to the vendor supporting my description of the problem I received a replacement part. When I find a good deal on second-hand bar & plates I’ll buy another set of these and leave them in the truck. There are plenty of parks nearby where I’d enjoy early morning workouts. Just say no to loud, stuffy gyms...

Nice pair of squat stands, I've only put 250 on them so far but seems like I could easily rack twice that before it got sketchy. Doesn't wobble at all unless you actively push it and try to make it wobble. I wouldn't slam bars down into it, rack it in a controlled and slow manner. The safety bars are great to use as is or for rack pulls and RDLs. Great addition for a home gym or a small gym in general because they are portable, take up no space, and super easy to set up.

The product is fine and easy to assemble if and when you have the right nuts. The nuts that come with the rack are NOT the right nuts. I had some around the house and bought a few more #10 Nuts at Home Depot and it was super easy.

Ok these work n do the job they are ment for . cheaply made wouldn't trust with an extreme amount of weight also they are height limited doesn't work with every bench .

組み立て工具は入ってないので、モンキーやメガネ、ラチェットにて17サイズを持っていると良いかと。 締めすぎると中に入り込むので注意。 それ以外は予想よりも良いものでした。

Safety spotter arm broke off the first time I tried to use it. I merely set a bar I was doing arm curls with on the spotter arms while I rested between sets, and the screw holding one of the arms to the frame literally snapped off. Scared to use it for anything else-total waste of money.

工具が必要 17ミリのソケットレンチにインパクトドライバーが付いたものと、フライヤーが無いと組み立てられない

丈夫で良いです

物はすごくしっかりした作りで頑丈で、お値段以上かと思いますが、組立時にどう考えても穴が合わないパーツがありました。加工も硬すぎて困難なので本当に苦労した。 しかも工具がついていないので、最低ペンチと六角レンチは自分で用意する必要がある（しかもかなりしっかりした工具じゃないと厳しい）自分はもともと工具はたくさんあったのでよかったが、そうじゃない人は途方に暮れるのでは、、、 とはいえ足の部分さえ何とかできてしまえば、あとは楽ちんです。
