PowerLine PPR200X Power Rack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I didn't get mine from Amazon (I ordered it from Jesup Gym), but I thought I'd review it here. This is a nice rack for us non-supermen that aren't moving stacks of 45's every day. I would have no fear putting 300 to 500 pounds on it, but if I were lifting much more than that, I'd probably shop for a stronger rack (maybe one day). Anyway, since there aren't really any instructions (just an exploded drawing) I'll offer my suggestions on assembly.

The way I assembled it was to put the bottom 3 pieces together first (put the feet and plastic parts on now), then add the rear uprights, then the top back piece, then a front upright and top side piece, repeat for other side, then chin bar. Snug the bolts at first, then tighten them all when it's all assembled. Get them good and tight but don't over tighten because the tubing will start to bend in with a lot of force. You'll need two 3/4" wrenches (a socket wrench and spanner work best). This worked well for me doing it by myself and took about 45 minutes including opening the boxes and laying out the parts.

This rack comes in 3 boxes and can be shipped via a regular carrier. This might be nice to know for those who don't live where a freight carrier can easily get to you. Anyway, this rack, a bench, and a 300 pound set can take you a long way. Add some dumbbells and you'll have a nice little home gym.

BodyCraft F430 Power Rack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First of all, excuse my english, I'm from Denmark and don't have time to use a dictonary.
I have owned a bodycraft powerrack for over 1 year. Me and my brother trains 3 times pr. week (full body program).
This powerrack is realy good. The only thing that I don't like about the powerrack is that it is not heigh enough soo that we can perform standing militarypress inside the powerrack. Besides that everything else is just perfect. The powerrack seems solid enough (we dont train that heavy - benchpress 110 kg, ca. 220 lb). there is plenty of space inside the rack, which is a big advantage. I really have only good things to say about this powerrack, except for the lack of posibility to perform standing militarypress inside the rack. It is very easy and fast to change the height of both the spotters and the safepins, which also is a very big advantage. You do also dont need the space that is required for at powerrack where you pull the saftypins out.
Please don't by the cable attachment. I havent got it my self/so I really don't know. But I seriously doubt that there is place to put your bench,to have a spotter (traningspartner) and so on if you include anything else than the powerrack.
But remember to buy the dip sticks. I'm really glad that I included them when I bought the rack.
All you need to train hardcore is this bodycraft powerrack, a really solid bench with leg curl attachment, a good olympic set, a set of dumbells where you can change the weight, a belt where you can hang barbells and a stepbench.
If I should buy another powerrack, I would for sure buy this one again, becourse now I know that this rack is really good.
It is a very good idea to draw on your powerrack (write the names of the diffrent exercises on the rack the right places), soo that you can find vhere the saftypins etc is going to be acording to the difrent exercises, this will save you a lot of time.
This powerrack rocks. Besides the lack of height inside the rack, everything else is just perfect.Me and my brother really love to work out in this perfect piece of equipment. P.s. I havent done any real testing of the strenght of the powerrack (I dont toss around the bar or weights), and we havent lost the grip on the bar jet. sooreally don't know how solid this powerrack really is. But for over a year me and my brother have trained really hard on the rack, and the rack still looks and feels like new. So if you dont lift extreme heavy or throw around with the bar, then I don't think that the rack will ever break.
