The staff at homegym was very helpful in explaining the various gym racks and stations, as well as informing me the required dimensions. That allowed me to come to the conclusion that this VersaRack XL is the best option for my needs.Rating
I managed to assemble the rack myself in 4 hours, and the rack is of good quality. Do get the olympic barbell and weight set + a sturdy bench to go with it. - Present and AWESOME RACK

I bought one of these about 10 months ago and workout 6 days a week with it. I have it in my garage and I smash it with weights and it doesn't look like it'll ever let me down. have loaded 180kg for squats and this rack handles it with no issues. I wouldn't hesitate if your considering it. Having it fold away is an awesome bonusRating - Good rack at good price
-
Have been using this for around a month, sturdy rack. Ive not folded it at all but left it open. Really enjoy the pulley system it has which allows me to do even more exercises with the rack itself. I have not found a reason to go to the gym with the rack now. A peeve I have is that the surface J hooks keep getting rubbed against the knurling of the barbell which causes it to wear out. Will be getting something to paste over the areas of the J hooks which are exposed to the barbell. The barbell I am using here is the 1.8m Olympic barbell.Rating - Impressive space saver and yet functional
-
Had this since Wednesday and manage to try it out this morning. The one and only equipment you need if you have space constrain. Very functional and yet effective. Comes with lots of attachments for different exercises.Rating - Exactly as advertised

Have had my power rack 3 weeks now and super happy with it. Very well thought out design and attention has been paid to lots of little things, such as spacings, hinges, etc. I assembled it myself and was impressed by the quality of the nuts and bolts included, as they are good hardened pieces.Rating
It feels quite solid when I'm doing pull ups and I've no concerns about the stability.
I also bought:
- premium weight bench (http://homegym.sg/premium-weight-bench.html)
- standard 180cm barbell
- ez bar
- 16 inch dbells
- plates: 4 x 1.25, 4 x 2.5, 8 x 5, 2 x 10, 2 x 15
- floor mats, 2m x 2m
This combination of plates seems to work very well across bbell, ezbar and dbells.
There's just such a wide variety of exercises that can be done with this rack and the extras I bought.
Most importantly, I don't feel like I'm compromising on routines or movements, because I seem to be able to get the full range of movement I need when performing exercises.
- value for money and space

wrote this review after using it for 3 weeks, 3 to 4 times a week. this is an excellent value for money and space.Rating
you can hang the wiehgt plate s at the side of the rack and the lat pull down allow you to use non olympic weight.
after 3 weeks , there are very minor scratches at the area where i put in the the landmine attachement.
they included 2 bottles of paint to touch up scratches
its a good thing i use homegym assembly service as they took nearly 2 hourlys to carefuly assemble the whole thing, if i were to do it my self i would have taken at least one whole day. - Sensible Investment + High Satisfaction with Quality.

DELIVERY -Rating
overall positive. polite. 3 packages weighing less than 50kg each.
they didn't just dump at my doorstep since i opted for self assembly.
ASSEMBLY ADVICE -
follow the 6 illustrated steps. 2 spanners or a ratchet combo + hammer (just in case of dings for the screw inserts)
do-able alone in just 3 hrs if focused. 2 hrs if you have an extra hand and patience to follow the manual.
do not over tighten with allen key when fastening the leg stack for weights or it will crack. (yes one of mine did)
RUST -
2 months old used 3 times a week. i have no A/C or fan so it does get humid.
no rust clearly seen on "bare metal" safety bar yet.
use dry rag wipe and then spray WD-40 and wipe again, it takes only a minute.
advisable to get silicone lube spray for the lat's chrome bar.
- Good product

After thorough comparisons among power racks available in SG, I settled for this. It is indeed suitable for HDB flats. I stay in a 3NG and placed the rack in the living room, near the window, that is adjacent to the door. We do not have a couch, so it is fine to have the rack. Its being foldable provides more space near the doorway. The Versabench is the perfect match. I tried hanging it on the versarack and definitely, they are space savers.Rating
My only concern is the rusting, specially on the safety bars. I thought they were stainless steel. Any suggestions how I can keep the rust off? - All in 1

I've had this rack for over a year now. Unlike most racks, this one comes with all the bells and whistles! Landmine, lat row/pull down, band pegs, 2 sets of J-cups and dip bars. The only thing you don't get are the weights and oly bar. I love everything about this rack. Hole spacing is only an inch apart which makes setting up really nice. The numbering strip is a nice extra also. I've been abusing this rack 3-4 times per week and it's looks like the day I bought it minus some superficial dings (that's expected). I'd buy this over a rogue rack simply because of the extras that come with it. Lifetime guarantee to boot!Rating
Note about the folding; I was initially concerned about it falling apart but after having it I've had no issues. I've collapsed it a few times to make room for company and I must say it's a really nice solution if you need or don't have space. I'd but it all over again without hesitation! - Good but is it durable
-
It started rusting within 1 week of use. However, it is good in the sense that it is a whole gym in 1 rackRating - You only need this
-
So much stuff in a package, really worth the price. Very sturdy rack.Rating - Versatile Rack
-
I purchased it last thursday. assembled it myself over 2 days in breaks. i would say its definitely worth the money i spent as its foldable, space saving, has a weight storage facility, Olympic bar holder and cable attachments.Rating - great gym set at home
-
i bought the set 6 months back...and it had force me to work out every day..personally i dont close the rack unless i wanted to do other exercise on the mat.Rating
The great thing about this machine is that it remain small even when opened up..it can fit nicely into a small Room..with space for warerode too! - strength equipments
-
i"m totally sold on the product . I was amazed when i was recomended the product. By the time i saw it. I WAS SOLD.!!!Rating - Important piece in home gym equipment
-
Just finished assembling on Saturday afternoon last week( one man assembly is real hard work and you have to make sure all the nuts and bolts are all accounted for as there are no extra bolts). Already did bench press ,squat n dip .. Overalll I am very satisfied with the structure , usability and versatility of this equipment.. The homegym sales is also very patient attending to my questions and i really appreciated that..Rating - Best all in one foldable rack!

I just got this today. It was delivered at about 2pm and I set it up myself as I enjoy putting things together so that I know how and what the foundation consists of.Rating
To tell you the truth, it was a back crunching aching BUT I enjoyed every minute of it. Every single nut and bolt that I put together, every contact and joints I made sure all of them was oiled first and thats why I finished at 10pm. Took me 8hours! And it was worth energy spent! I hate it when equipments go creaky on me.
Anyways I tested this rack thoroughly.
I hung on it when it was folded, swing forward and back too and tested it and I must say if you are worried about the rack falling, dont, it wont.
The Lat pulley system is the 3rd supporting leg of the rack and together with the other 2 supporting legs, this rack is very stable.
There are PROs and CONs though so I'll touch on them.
CONS:
1. Dont like the dips bar. No matter how tight its screwed on, the dips handle will still move although the entire dip will stay.
I hope they re-design the way the dips are hooked up.
2. The high lat pull down where you hook your lat handle is high. I am only 1.65m and I gotta stand on my bench to reach for and unhook them.
3. The long dual safety bars will screech when you try to insert them into the holes.
PROS
1. If you have non-olympic barbells and want to use olympic weights, no frets, this package comes with 8 olympic adaptors which you can use for your non-olympic barbells and the adaptors can be securely screwed on using an allen key.
2. Those weight racks are by default the same diameter as non-olympic weight holes so if you got some non-olympic weights lying around you can insert these weights into them. Otherwise insert the olympic adaptors on the weight racks if you want to 'hang up' your olympic weights.
3. The landmine core trainer is a good idea! Love the design.
4. Although I didnt like the lat pulleys, they still perform wonderfully well. Cables seem strong to withstand the amount of weights I 'threw' on them.
5. Barbell hooks with spring lock is so convenient when changing how high or low you want your barbell to be positioned.
6. Included barbell holders: 1 for your Olympic barbell and another for non or for whatever smaller diameter iron/steel bars you want to insert. Love them! And love those hooks for accessories too.
7. This rack alone is a storage system! I dont think you need to spent more on another rack just to put your weights.
Overall, I am a very satisfied customer. Barring the CONS, the PROs more than outweight the CONs.
$1550 for an equipment that is gonna last you a life time? Its worth the investment.
If you are worried about how much weight those barbell hooks can take, well read the specifications. They are really steely strong! And so are those safety bars.
No regrets! Foldable or not, this rack is really really strong and sturdy!
I definitely would recommend it to anyone.
9/10 product - because of the CONs. Nothing is perfect.
But for the price, for the ability to store all your weight, for making it foldable, for the strength and sturdiness, for the generous amount of olympic adaptors provided, for the accessory hooks, for the conveniences, for the all in one, I will give it a 10! - All-around great. 10/10.

I've had this product for 3 days now and so far I'm loving it. The power rack itself is great because of how sturdy and durable it is, so you can safely and progress on heavy workouts like the Squat and Bench-Press entirely on your own without a spotter. One minor grievance is that because of the height of the rack, unless you're very short, you'll have to overhead-press outside of the rack, though this isn't that huge a problem at all because the j-hooks (there are 4, excluding the additional two attached to the safety-bars) are very much adjustable. You can do other heavy movements like rack pulls/shrugs/etc just great in there too.Rating
The lat-pulldown and low cable row attachments are amazing as well. For the most part, they're identical to the ones in any commercial gym. Not only do they give an awesome back work-out on their own, but if you're slightly creative, and have your own attachments such as Tricep ropes and close-grip V-bars, you can get a LOT more out of them. I've found they're great for a variety of other accessory exercises, such as Straight-arm lat Pulldown, Tricep Pushdowns, Bicep Curls, Weighted Abdominal crunch, High-to-Low/Low-to-High cable Woodchoppers, and Face Pulls, just to name a handful.
The other features this offers are great as well. The landmine attachment offers its own variety of workouts, such as Angled Shoulder Press, T-Bar Rows, Landmine Torso Twists, etc. For those with space constraints (like me), using this might present a problem, as it involves having to attach a bar to the corner end of the power rack. However, there is the option to attach a short standard non-Olympic bar if that's all you can use. This works great for me.
Weight-plate holders are great as well. Extremely strong, and they can be adjusted to hold standard non-Olympic plates too. Dip and pull-up bars are great, though if you intend to do pull-ups with the rack, you also have to factor in the height of your head on top of the height of the power rack, so ceiling space isn't a problem for you. I don't have to use the folding option, but it's great to have it there in case I ever need more space. One of my biggest misgivings prior to purchasing the rack was whether the fold-able feature would compromise the safety offered by the rack, and my fears have since proved baseless. Between the 3 safety catches that locks the open structure of the rack in place, the rack is indeed very safe.
In summary, this power rack is everything I had hoped it would be and more. Would definitely recommend this to other fellow home-gym goers. There is very little with this power rack that you can't do. - Great space saving equipment.

I bought the rack and it was assembled by the guys at homegym.sg. I decided to get this rack as I did not have enough space for a full rack in my room. Unfolding the rack is pretty quick and straightforward. Really takes less than 10 seconds. When the rack is folded, it takes less than half the space compared to an unfolded rack. There is a weight plate holder, and thus there is no need to get a weight tree. Saves even more space in my opinion. The rack feels strong and sturdy. I initially thought that the safety bars would not be able to hold much weight by looking at the pictures, but I was wrong. The pulleys , dip bars and pull up bars are a plus. more variety of exercises could be done with it.Rating
Overall 10/10 product. Would recommend people staying in HDB homes with little space for gym equipment.
