Just a note that 84"is pretty short for a power rack, this is good if you need it to fit in a place with low ceilings but if you're over 6" and wanting to do pull ups or shoulder press it may be an issue. This is an issue with most low cost racks. For comparison rogue racks start at 90" and go up to 120".
If strongly suggest if you two that you get a higher rack (I'm 6'2" ave for a 100" one, 90" might have just been sufficient but 84 definitely wouldn't be.

You're right. I picked up an 85" rack from Treadmill factory because I was desperate. I'm just shy of 5'10 and it feels so much smaller than the ones at the commercial gyms. That said it was the right choice for me because I lack the ceiling height in the basement. If you have the ceiling clearance I would definitely go for a larger rack.

Does it say anywhere what the estimated shipment date is?
Do they charge right away or only when item is shipped?

Can't say enough good things about these guys. Purchased their folding rack and utility barbell back in the spring and have really enjoyed them.

I thought it is something like THIS and comes with 5 speakers and a subwoofer, huge disappointment in the room.

QC. How do you know they won't re-open until next year?
I'm pretty sure they'll re-open this spring, or by summer at the latest.
No way businesses will survive if everything remains closed for another year.

Has businesses surviving ever been in consideration with anything the government has done over the last year? My gym owner has switched to mostly consulting and told us he doesn't expect he will ever open his doors again. While I am sure new business owner's will take their spots if there is a need in the market, it probably wont be as quick of a transition as one would hope.

This is a well rated rack. I was waiting since October and spoke with the owner a couple times who seems like a really nice guy. Unfortunately I couldn't wait any longer so ended up picking up a similar rack for quite a bit more money from TM Factory last week.

Would have loved to give these guys my business, and will be picking up some plates and an extra barbell for my wife this spring.

Love my 5.1. Even though it's not American made it takes a 500lbs squat like a champ. Why is this being down voted ? You're not finding a rack with these features and attachments in this price range.

That shipping date is tentative, expect delays.
My iron plate order in Oct were suppose to come nov or dec, they did finally showed up in Jan.
I bought the Light Commerical Rack & iron plates, they are great for at home.
Wish the 10 lbs iron had holes.
25 & 45 lbs iron plates had carry holes.

I bought this rack in May, lucked out near the start of the pandemic. Came from a basic bench prior to that, and what a nice upgrade it was. There are time I do with it was taller, but anything more wouldn't have fit in my basement. I can barely do a standing overhead press without hitting the ceiling.
You won't find a better rack in this price range, and they have a ton of attachments available also.
