HulkFit 1000-Pound Capacity Multi-Function Adjustable Power Cage with J-Hooks, Dip Bars and Other Optional Attachments

Pakage was good but posts were all scratched and customer service said to paint it. The 2 straps that came with it were too short, pointless for having a 550$ rack. They send replacement straps but when it arrived, i hade to pay 30$ of import charges. Cheap product and cheap companyUpdate: I finaly received replacement straps after 4 weeks

With the current worldwide pandemic crisis and subsequent gym closures I feared that I would lose all the gains I worked so hard for. I had some bars and weights (from the 80's) at home, so I began to attempt some workouts on my back patio, even though I lacked a bench or a squat rack. I went shopping online for these products only to find virtually everything sold out. I finally came across the Hulkfit Power Cage which was still available (and at a reasonable price) through Amazon. I read virtually all the reviews not only at Amazon, but at other sites as well. Most reviews were positive. Some reviews complained about misfitting parts (bent parts, safety bars holes not lining up, making the bars difficult to install) . After I felt satisfied that the positive reviews outweighed the negative ones, I decided to place my order. I paid a little more than some of the cheapest quotes provided by some reviewers, but it was an acceptable amount. I then had to select a delivery "appointment" (the shipping was being managed by a logistics company). I then became concerned that the order would take an inordinate amount of time to ship (Amazon had banners warning that because of the pandemic, they would need to prioritize some essential orders, which could mean delays). I also found a bench on Amazon (made by another company as the Hulkfit bench was not available). Nevertheless within 24 hours I received confirmation that my Hulkfit order had shipped, and was provided tracking information. Through tracking the shipment, I learned that my shipment had arrived in my hometown two days (coming from Washington state all the way to North Carolina) after my order date. Nevertheless, my delivery appointment was scheduled for 5 days later, so I had to wait. The delivery company rescheduled my order from the morning (which I had requested) to the afternoon which I accepted. Sure enough I received the shipment as scheduled (I agreed that they could leave the box in the driveway in front of my house) and I managed to get that box (which was incredibly heavy) to the back of the house (where I planned to assemble it). I should note that I received the bench (which was shipped by another company) the same day. The next morning I began to open and unbox the rack in preparation for assembly. I should note that the item was incredibly securely packed and I arrived without any damage to the rack. Upon inspection, I was delighted at the robust construction of each component. The rack appears to be made out of 14-guage steel (by my calculations). The safety bars, J-hooks and chin-up bars are heavy and substantial. Even though I am very mechanically inclined, I made a couple mistakes in the initial assembly (the included instructions, provided only pictures, no text), but I lost little time in correcting my mistakes. From reading all the reviews, I learned that a few prior reviewers had problems with lining up the holes in the rack (which made installing the safety bars difficult or impossible) which could be attributable to their mistake of tightening all the bolts before they installed the bars. Hulkfit did provided an advisory sheet in the instructions to leave all the bolts a little loose until the safety bars are installed. I followed that advice. Hulkfit provided enough bolts (the nuts are the "Nylock" type, which prevents loosening when used - a nice touch). Finally, my squat cage was completely assembled. I did find two very slight problems: 1) - one of the J-Hooks required some slight grinding (on one of the side plates) in order to fit and 2)- on the left side, despite the fact that I did install the safety bars prior to tightening all the bolts, I had some problem with the holes not lining up perfectly (this appears to be attributable to the rear vertical support beam twisting slightly when the bolts were tightened), but I am still able to install that safety bar with a little extra push. On final inspection, I was impressed with the sturdiness of the rack. It was actually more substantial in structure than the squat rack I use at the commercial gym. It is slightly smaller that the commercial rack, but that is actually an advantage, as space is limited at my house (I am 6'/225 lbs and the rack is plenty large for me). It's also attractive with its yellow and black color scheme. The next few days, I used the rack for benching, squatting and chin-ups. I was delighted at the stability of the rack. I'm in my 60's, so the maximum weights I use are around 270 in the squat, 225 in the bench. The rack appears capable to handle much heavier weights The holes are about 4" (center to center), 3" (edge to edge) but I had no problem finding appropriate heights for the J-hooks, safety and dip bars. I find that the dip bars are perfectly positioned for dips, pushups, etc. for me. Surprisingly, despite it's heaviness and sturdiness, it is possible (and not too difficult) to move the rack across the floor if needed (which is an advantage for me on my somewhat crowded sheltered rear patio). Overall, I am delighted with my new rack (I feel that I got more than my money's worth) and I look forward to years of hard training at home.

Se ve resistente, lo probe con 54 kilos y no se rompio.

I've returned this product because I didn't like how low the weight plate holders were to the ground. However, it's built really well especially for the price.It can be modded to work with Powertec racks, but you would have to cut the steel tower a few inches.Good quality build but the low placement of the weight holders was a bit of a deal breaker for me.

Good for price . Seems sturdy to handle weight . Came with a dent , but I not going to argue with amazon . They keep still this we me money . Material is cheap , but I only care about bench not collapsing . This seems sturdy
