Anyone used this power rack?

[nissan11]

Has anyone used a power rack with style of adjustment for the spotter bars and J hooks? I am thinking about upgrading to one of these used racks. It is 9' tall so I'd have to cut it down about a foot and weld it back up to get it to fit in my house. It looks much heavier duty than the cheap $250 14 gauge rack I have now. I also like that this York rack has plate storage. Any opinions?

Never trained on that specific rack but it looks solid. I wouldn’t hesitate training with it imo

Do some online comparison shopping as to price, features, overall quality, AND availability of different heights before you jump. Google will know a lot more than I do, but the 2 companies that leap to mind for me are Rogue and Sorinex. Bear in mind shipping costs can kill ya on things like this; they'll be based on the weight + the distance between you and them.

Looks good,
I'd buy it but don't think my girlfriend would allow it in the living room!

It has to be an older rack. The closest York rack I can find is this one:

I researched every rack and every company. Titan was the best choice due to price. Rogue and companies like TSS are too expensive for me which is why I am looking for a used rack. The rack I am considering is $450.

I had a similar rack to this one, it worked great. $450 for that rack is a good price. I baught my current rack new....no, you do not want to know...

I went with a Titan Rack, absolutely no complaints. Went together quite easily and about half the price of a Rogue. Cutting that rack down sounds like a lot of work...

The rack I was interested in just sold. I will continue looking for a used commercial-grade rack.

Thats the one I have its solid, not a single issue with it. Although I see its currently out of stock so if your looking now it may not be the best option.

Only issue I have with racks like these is we had to alter the bottoms to squat, I and most I trained with squat wide.

I really like the looks of this rack. I would not have to modify it to fit in my house but I am a little concerned about stability since it only has one cross support and it is on the floor. It certainly looks heavy duty and I sent the salesman an email. It is listed for $600 and is local.

Haha, yeah I watched this review before I made the purchase. I figured hit or miss will see what happens and I had no issues. Happy customer here, would have much preferred a Rogue but for the price I figured I would give it a try. I did get the flat foot version because I didnt want to drill into my cement floor. The rack is very stable no issues there even when not bolting to the floor. If I were to do it again I would take my chances on another one.
