I've got several of these, along with the same product from Rogue. They are nearly identical, with the exception of the branded stickers on either product. The Titan were about half the price of the Rogue version, but now are pretty close in pricing, even when considering the added cost of the shipping from Rogue. I think the difference is about $10 at this point, which makes Rogue a better value, in my incorrect opinion.

The price on these have gone up since I bought mine, but still a great value compared to the imported options out there - looking at you, Titan. Both the vertical and horizontal are excellent choices and hold up well over time. Typical Rogue quality, no complaints. I just recently bought another vertical barbell holder and the quality is the same as 7 years ago, great powder coat job, quickly deliverd.

For whatever reason, the item sent me was a little sketchy. The basic premise of this style of plate tree is easy to grasp, and the plates should not move the whole vertical portion whilst taking off and putting on. It's a simple "H" design and it should be very stable. I didn't have wheels on it, so that should have made it even sturdier. All the bolts were tightened but not overly so. Anyway, I didn't trust it, especially with family members using the tree as well, so I sold it and bought the Irwin Fitness branded option, which is sturdier (same design). It's a pity, because most of my Rep kit has been good to me.

Bummer they no longer make this bar. It’s every bit as smooth spinning as my Pyrros and has a great finish, despite it being chrome. I bought it sub $250 prior to covid, and that included shipping. I think it was like $179 with $50 shipping because Rep used to say “free shipping isn’t free” on a banner on their website. My how times change. Great bar and would recommend it highly if you catch one out in the wild.

Good skinny fat grips for helping when you need some fat but not too much. Helpful when you’re building up to an axle deadlift or wanting a little wider handle on your cable attachments.

Way too expensive for the quality. This easily bends, has basically pool noodle foam on the handle, and just overall is meh. I wouldn’t recommend this unless it was $50 on Amazon. That’s about the quality: which is a shame because it’s a small shop.

I got this last year on sale for like $150 and it’s all that baby! I sold my Rep rackable curl bar because it had no knurl marks over where half of my hands were on the bar. No such thing with Bare Steel. I like the knurl, finish, and bad ass skull on all their kit. Well done boys!

Crazy options abound with this system from Arm Assassin. There’s no wrong answers, and the price is great for all of their products. Quick to change handles too. Great powder coat on their products too.
