It last forever if you do your preventative maintenance. The maintenance kit is reasonably priced and is easy to perform. Buying a used one and a kit is pretty much like getting it brand new.
It is way too expensive now. The plastic bushings that run along the rods are noisy and cause a bit of friction when traveling. Facepulls are only possible from a seated position since the hole for the last pulley on the top only goes straight down and doesn’t allow the cable to come out on an angle. Maybe that’s only a problem for people under 6ft? The welds aren’t great, having a few holes on the bar attaching to the base of the rack.
They are good pin safeties. They’re annoying to move, but are all pin safeties. I’ve dropped more things than I’d care to count on them and they have no problems.
It’s a good price when it is on sale. The pad arm knocks the rear pin out of the rack when it is fully retracted for storage. When moving it it really helps to have a pin in one of the holes to prevent it from moving around and becoming cumbersome. The pad itself is rather narrow for when you are using it for rows, it also forces your head very close to the rack if you have a larger torso.
They’re basic band pegs. They don’t come with any sort of cotter pin to make sure they don’t move out of the rack despite having pre drilled holes for them.
It’s ok for hip thrusts, but pretty much useless for squats. It absorbs an insane amount of sweat when it’s on your back, it also takes away the feeling from the bar on your back.
Double sealed with a bag inside a beg. The first bag had a zipper then it goes into another bag that has a zipper and Velcro. It holds over 50lbs if you want to put that much sand into it for some reason
It’s a good, sturdy, true 3*3 5/8 rack with westside spacing. It comes with bolts if you want to screw it into the floor. The only problem I’ve run into is the some of the welds aren’t great, not bad just not pretty.
