Great collars which hold all your weight without any fuss. I can also note that they work on the Rogue Strongman Log well enough, where my Rogue aluminium collars won't be able to close. which is great, cause it means I won't need to buy axle collars.

A very versatile piece of equipment, and I'm glad I got it since it saves a ton of space. I got it pretty early and it was a chore to ship it to Europa at the time, since they hadn't set up international shipping yet. I use it weekly for leg extensions or lying leg curls. I wish seated leg curls would work easier, but you need to flip like the whole attachment, and I got no time for that. Biceps and triceps work also work great tho you really need to find your ideal lever position for it to feel good there I find. My real gripe comes with the build quality and some design choices. For one I do not trust the seat to hold a 200lb lifter you does some heavy leg extensions. I prop it up with an incline bench to be sure (that also allows me to get some extra stretch in my quads by doing lying leg extension). It flexes quite a lot if you have at least like 80lb of weight on the arm. The leg pad is also slightly askew no matter how you tighten the screws. My biggest issue is with all the pop pins for fixating the attachments and that they hold those right on the corner of the hexagonal piece. That really eats into the pop pins and just makes handling a drag over time, since it gets hung up on the thread and you really need strength on to tighten or loosen them. we also have the issue that one of the screws for tightening the attachment on the 3x3 post broke it's thread and now we can only fixate it on 3 without being able to fix it. The only reason I don't give it a 2 Star on build quality is that it was from a price point quite good I think. It sounds rude maybe but with a lot of stuff from Bullet Proof, I wish there was like a Rogue design team there to steer it more towards bomb proofness instead of it being almost a bit flimsy feeling for just being a miniscule bit more versatile.

Good neutral grip bar where you can erally stretch those pecs when you use the full ROM. The three different grip widths all feel well positioned and neither too narrow nor too wide. The angle of the grip is also nicely aligned to give you a nice feeling neutral grip. Thanks to the curvature of the bar it is self balancing in your hands making it easy to use. Also quite nice to due neutral grip biceps work. My only gripe is with the finish of the coating. It's not badly applied at all, but it is so coarse that you need to bench with a shirt on, and REALLY need to make sure to get your chin outta the way when doing standing OHP. It also has a habit of swinging down in the jcups at the worst moment (due to how gravitiy works and the centre of gravity of the bar) when there isn't a lot of weight on it making you hit your head when you get off the benchpad.

Super overbuilt but also real stable. The pegs lose the coating over time. You can upgrade it with the short peg storage post for change plates (I remember I got this Idea from Basement Brandon at the time). You could also add the upright bar holder, I think. The rollers are not really needed, cause if the tree is really loaded with weight, you won't be able to move it on most floors anyhow.

Got the version with the plastic roller. The rollers have been quite chewed through and definitely need replacement after about 3 years, since the rolling function doesn't really work anymore. Love them for squats hate them for bench. They look also pretty good.

We got ours second hand for a fantastic price. We're likely also just taking care of it until the next holder will continue carrying the torch. It also holds our bulletproof attachment like a pro. Dropped a few squats in the safeties and this rack didn't move an inch. We added some pegs to hold plates at the bottom so you can still use both sides of the rack for squats or bench without issues.

If you are a powerlifter you surely will like lifting with them, if not, they are overrated and you are probably happier with pumpers and cast irons. Quality wise the Rogues are great and I have no issue with them, usage will make the color rub/chip off with time for sure. They might be a bit annoying to grip with one side being completely flat, other brands try to amend that issue.

One of the few pieces of equipment I regret buying. Don't get them if you use standard sized hex dumbbells, as adding the fractionals will leave no room for your hand anymore. I can use it on a loadable dumbbell, but there I could just add the fractionals the normal way.
