Alpha2000 Squat Stand, Exercise Rack with Barbell Holder and Weight Storage Pegs, Lifting Spotter Arms, 1000 lbs Weight Limit, Textured Pull Up Bar

I was having a really hard time finding weightlifting equipment right now because of the COVID-19 buyout. I didn't want something cheap because I want to actually want to use this stuff because who knows how long it'll be before I can get a gym membership again.It arrived with some scratches but it's metal and I don't care about that. I just want it sturdy.It was actually very easy to assemble. I would make sure that you have a ratchet of some kind; I wouldn't want to use the included tools because that wouldn't be as easy.I flipped the pull up bar upside down because of my ceiling height (84") and I fit it just fine and can do pullups.Feels sturdy and safe. I love the numbering down the sides--a small detail that makes things easier.Will update a month down the road after the rest of my equipment comes in.

This equipment is one of the best alternatives for a one-person workout, without a need for a spotter. The design makes lifting to your desired level possible without compromising safety. I can now lift safely to my highest level without any help from a spotter. I have been lifting indoors, privately at home for a long time. Over the years, I had had to ask my son to be my spotter. But he is grown up and moved on, and I have to do it by myself. In addition, my lifting had diminished for fear of getting hurt while trying to lift a little higher. That has changed with the purchase of this equipment. There is also added favorite of mine: the pull-up bar, which I love doing every time. I wish I knew about this equipment all these years. It is simply good engineering.

Pros: good width, great pull-up bar, safety arms & barbell catches are easy to adjust.Cons: Difficult to assemble. I had to file a couple of pieces just to get the threaded holes to line up correctly. The misaligned holes caused one of the hex screws to begin stripping at its threads. Luckily I was able to salvage it & use it on a different part of the rack. But I came very close to not being able to finish the build due to a stripped screw.Judging from other reviews I received a bad idea. But it eventually fit together with a bit of elbow grease. I'd still recommend at the price. Just set aside the extra time for the build. Don't plan on building then using the same day and you should be fine.

Very nice rack. Quality parts and very stable. Seems to be about $50-$75 cheaper than competitors products so I was very happy with how nice it came out. Instructions were easy and the hardware was nicely labeled. Only minor gripe is the Allen wrench that is provided is very small and is prone to slipping out of position (no biggie though). I recommend this squat rack if you are looking to start a home gym!

Total Chinese garbage that will probably end up killing someone. Cheap Chinese hardware that strips easy because it's soft metal, holes not drilled correctly and overall flimsy.

Great rack for the price- we have the pull up bar on upside down just to allow for a little more room since ours is in the basement/garage. Most other racks with pull ups bars are too high and have no adjustment option. The rack is sturdy and perfect for our space. Make sure not to tighten all bolts until the instructions say to and assembly should not be an issue, but it is definitely easier with two people rather than one! If you run into issues, the seller is very quick to respond to messages and extremely helpful!

The package arrived with damage on the box. One piece was slightly altered because of this, perhaps messing with safety? When I assembled the product it would move at the slightest touch without using too much force at all. It is because of this that the stand is lopsided and moves a little back and forth. Given the price I expected better quality and am disappointed with overall design. It functions as intended but overall quality for price needs to be improved. Too unstable for my taste.

Starting a home gym and this is a great squat rack for the price. Everything needed to assemble the rack was included in the packaging and the instructions were very straight forward and easy to understand. I assembled the rack by myself in about 40 minutes.The rack feels very sturdy while doing pull ups and overall is a great value. The related training app is a really cool feature as well.
