Typical build quality that you’d expect from Rogue. I purchased this in 2022, and the coating is surprisingly still holding strong despite various dings and scratches from use. It’s the skeleton my gym is built around and has served me well. West side spacing is nice but sometimes I have 1” hole envy.

This bench is a tank. It’s very sturdy and well built. The standard pad has been fine with my use, it’s durable and easy to clean.

I use this two or three times a week, and it has helped relieve some nagging wrist and elbow issues. Build quality is okay, but for the initial offering price the build quality was borderline unacceptable.

This is the gold standard of Rowers. Used high schools, universities, and fitness facilities around the world; it's the only way to row. I love to hate using this thing. THE PM5 monitor is easy and intuitive to use and program workouts; it also connects to heart rate monitors to track your effort. Concept 2's resources are really what sells this. They have programs you can follow, online challenges, and digital regattas you can compete in. From easy steady state pieces to hard max effort sprints, this thing will kick your butt in the best way.

I love this. I really like the wrist pronation handle. I have the 5/8" version and use it with a loading pin. I think with the 5/8" attachment pin, there's inherently a little wobble, but it causes no issue during use. It has been a great addition.

I wasn't a fan of these. The brackets on mine were very loose on my RML-390 uprights. They'd swing out with the slightest touch. This is probably because they are not lined with UHMW and have a looser fit.

These are an upgrade to the Rogue Monster Lite straps included in my RML-390. The brackets are UHMW-lined and fit snugly on my rack, unlike the Rogue options.

Good change plates. I use them a lot with my JD Gym wrist roller, Rogue Tibialis Bar, and the Tib Bar Guy Torque bar. They're well made and fit tight on all my sleeves and weight horns. They're a better value on the used market.
