I prefer this style stand to the column. The one I had made adjustments somewhat tight at times but nothing that would make me want the column. Mine was kind of short- saw a review that added casters and that is pretty genius (even just for the height)

I have 1 pair of 10s that I got used with some echo v2 plates. These are fine but don’t get used a lot. I wouldn’t say no if I got them used for a good price but probably wouldn’t buy new. If I wanted bumper plates like this I would probably go with homegrown stength (KY FTW!)

Bought this for my dad for Christmas. Played with it some before I gave it to him. Got a good hand workout but the outside of the bag started to get dusty from the rice stuff inside.

This was my first home gym piece that I got used for marketplace. It was an older version of this but still 103 inches tall. Worked well was just too tall.

Thing is built like a tank and will last forever. Squat stands are great for starting a home gym. 70 inch is a little short so if you wanna do pull up’s might want to think about that.

These are awful. Best advice (besides throw them away) I ever got was to turn the backwards. Made them easier to get off the bar.

It’s fine. Just not as good as the TPB and pretty much the same money new. If you can find one used for a good price, grab it.

I liked using this bar for squats, hated it for bench but that’s just me. Knurling was nice and felt good on the back. The one I used was in commercial gym and it took a licking but still looked great.
