SteelbodyStrength Training Monster Cage Squat Rack Home Gym Station System for Weightlifting and Bodybuilding STB-98005

1) I purchased this initially with Amazon but I cancelled and order through the manufacturer because it work quicker. It was taking almost a month for the delivery to arrive because after purchasing you have to set up a delivery date and the delivery date is a long way from what you would expect.2) The cage arrives in 4 boxes (not light of course so you know but manageable). The assembly instructions are not the best. There's information missing about a few items that needs to be installed in certain set up forms. READ everything first and inventory everything before assembly. The assembly was straight forward after figuring out the missing information as the instructions are based on photos alone and no script .3) Assembly everything loose to make sure everything fit properly and note there are no torque spec so I say hand tighten good and use other safe securing methods. After assembly, test everything from pull up bars to racks to make sure nothing moves as the straight bar moved after I put my body weight on it (195, 6'2). Side note, I need to jump up to get on the second pull up bar.4) This is made in China so at times it is not a good thing but from the reviews before me, I hope it is some somewhat commercial grade as it is 16 gauge steel compared to USA made brands that 11 gauge steel (thicker). There is different when it comes to use and long term abuse along with weight capacity.Finally, I purchased this for my home gym and I hope it lasts so I can take it with me when I move. The reinforced steel plates assist in the weight capacity but my only question is why not increase the steel gauge for a thick and more durable result. They don't say the type of steel used but testing a Rogue and Titan Fitness cage to this, there is a BIG difference ((1.524mm thick (16G) vs 3.048mm thick (11G Rogue)).I hope this helps everyone. I will update in a year as I use this cage a minimum 5 days a week.

Amazing. I couldn’t be happier with this setup. Although bench, weights and barbell are sold separately. Still well worth the money.

I have been using this rack for about 5 months now, and it is working out great. It was fairly easy to put together with excellent instructions. This product seems to be very well made and it is sturdy. It did have some minor damage from a careless shipper, but overall this is an excellent product. I would buy it again!

This is a very solid and sturdy weightlifting rack. It's very versatile and allows you to perform a number of exercises, from simple pull ups to squats and rack pulls if you have the accessory equipment. I also purchased a Steelbody bench which allows me to do flat and incline bench using the cage to rack my barbell.I only have one complaint. Its that I had to modify the holes on two support beams. This is because when assembled, the holes for the screws attaching the two support beams to the cage frame did not line up properly. If not for this problem, I would have given this item 5 out of 5 stars.

Will update and add pix soon! Took about 2 hours to assemble with the wife! Does not shake. Heavy duty!! Will update after heavy use.
