Switched to this when I went to a half rack and it’s just as great as the anchor. Would keep it on my rack even if I switched back to a full rack with the anchor.

Only reason I don’t use it is because I made my rack into a half rack. Bought it when it was first released and it is a must have if you have a full rack.

Got this before all the knockoffs became available. I don’t know what more you could want out of it. It’s a simple attachment and works great for what it does.

I’ve had quite a few adjustable benches and this is by far my favorite. Integrates great with other Prime equipment but as a standalone bench it’s fantastic. Build quality is definitely above the benches I had from Rep. Adjusting is easy, moving it around is easy, the pad is soft enough to be comfortable but not too soft that I feel like it hurts my lifts. Some people don’t like how skinny the pad is but I feel more stable benching on this than other, wider adjustable benches. Would probably get the shorty version now for some more versatility but I’ve never used that one so I don’t know how well it performs as just a regular bench too.

Technically mine is a cobbled together version that started life as a RML-490, turned into a 6 post rack, and now a half rack. The half rack is my favorite version. Love how compact it is while still having weight storage and the spotter arms are my favorite safety version with how easy they are to move. Moving bars into/out of place is so easy because you don’t have to deal with getting them inside the rack is great. It does shift a bit on heavy reracks if it’s not bolted down but it’s minor and not a big deal in my opinion. Half rack crü

Powerblocks were the best adjustable dumbbell out there for quick adjustability and solid build quality before the home gym boom that led to all sorts of new options. I still love these things and use them constantly. For the price, they are fantastic. Only downside is the shape can make some dumbbell movements, like pullovers, difficult or not really possible. I find these to be few and far in between so I don’t feel like I’d ever bother replacing them. They can have some rattle to them but are you lifting in a library? Crank up the tunes and don’t worry about it. Adjusting them is super simple and even the smaller adder plates are fast to add/remove. I got these originally because I had Ironmasters and they are a pain to adjust. Started with just the 50lb version and quickly got the upgrade kits to go up to 90lbs and only touch my Ironmasters when I need anything above 90lbs. The other issue is these definitely weigh less than the stated amount. When going from 90lbs with these to 95lbs with my Ironmasters it’s really more like going from 88lbs to 95lbs. Doesn’t really matter if you’re only using the Powerblocks since it’s all relative. Are there better options now? Probably, but these are still a great value.

Love these plates so much. They look awesome and are so easy to move around with the holes. Can also use for random movements easily since they are easy to grab so a front plate raise is great. Only reason I took a star off from build quality is because they are cast, the round edges have noticeable imperfections that I didn’t notice in pictures prior to buying. They don’t make the plates worse by any means, but you’re not going to get that perfectly milled look. Would definitely get these again if starting over.

You get a lot of versatility in this piece in a fairly compact form. Cables couldn’t be smoother and the 350lb weight stack is heavy enough for most people for the rest of their lifting days. Plates have 20lb jumps and I’m not sure why they didn’t add three 5lb adder weights like they did with their functional trainer. There is a band peg and I just use that with 3 5lb plates from my Ironmaster dumbbells to add incremental weight. They work better than regular plates because they are so thin and 1” holes are big enough. The lat pulldown is 1:1 and the adjustable column is 2:1 so you can take advantage of that big weight stack. Adjustable column is 3x3 with 1” holes, which is nice for accessories but it would be better if all the posts were like that. Specifically the legs. They have 1” holes on the top for storing the accessories but if they had them on the side too, you could use them for even more. Accessories are expensive and not the best, unless they’ve made some changes. The low row foot plate is solid but a bit cumbersome and if they had a built in footplate to do low rows sitting on the ground, that would be better to me, though some don’t like that and prefer a bench setup. The lat pulldown seat works well but has a lot of play and they probably could have built it to attach more solidly. Still, it doesn’t prevent you from doing lat pulldowns in any way and is more of a minor annoyance but for the price, I expect those minor annoyances to not exist. If you have a functional trainer, the adjustable column is less useful except for the large weight stack. I still use it because it’s nice to just have multiple things set up at all times. If doing it again, I’d probably just get a lat pulldown/low row without the adjustable column and try to find a more compact option. It fits in a corner well but my setup doesn’t have many useable corners so it still sticks out a bit.
