Mikolo Power Cage, Power Rack with Cable Crossover System, 1500LBS Squat Rack with LAT Pull Down System, Workout Cage with Pulley System for Fitness Home Gym

***Updates Review 12/27/2023*** Overall this is a sturdy power rack with loads of features and weight capacity well worth the money! I researched for days all of the other similar power racks from Major Lutie and other sellers. This is the unit I decided on after days of comparison and we couldn’t be happier, lots of flexibility with the double pulley system and attachments. Some minor things to note, the supplied attachments are hollow tubing for the lat pull down bar, curl bar, etc. they are still very good quality and work fine and handle the weight, just don’t expect commercial grade or solid steel attachments. The unit does come in three separate boxes due to the amount and weight of all the parts. They do really need to put more protection in the box that contains the 4 main upright posts, there was some minor paint chips on them. Total overall build/install and final adjustments took about 2-3 hours. ***Original Issue Review & Solution From Seller 12/9/2023*** The seller is responsive and willing to help with any issues. The supplied bushings that support the pulleys in the upper frame were too short. The pulleys on the machine still worked but weren’t properly supported and walked side to side making contact with the frame cutout. After reaching out to the seller and sending some photos via Amazon chat and email they quickly identified a solution and sent out the replacement bushings. We received the bushing and installed them 12/27/2023 and now have no pulley issues.

This squat rack has lasted over a year of constant use. The assembly was easy and gave me no issues. A great budget option. The only this that has been a slight annoyance is sometimes the pulley carrying the weights gets stuck onto the washer-spring combo and requires a slight nudge to unstick. Makes you think the weight is heavier until you realize its just stuck, lol. But other than that, no complaints and comes all the attachments that you need for a great workout.

I was very apprehensive about buying a budget power rack worried that I might get junk or that I may never receive the product as a scam. I rolled the dice and couldn’t be more happy. I just received my rack today, a week faster than anticipated. Everything was in good condition, all parts were included, and it was super easy to assemble. My 10 year daughter held the uprights to help me get the bolts in and I was able to have it together mostly by myself in about 2 hours. Pulleys are smooth for plastic. Pull-up bar could be a little larger so as not to cut into the hands as bad. But for a budget rack I cannot complain. I’m thrilled to have my home gym set up and I’m ready to workout in the morning for the first time at home. I’ll update later after using it for a while but first thought on this rack? I’m not disappointed and it seems to be good quality.

Great value for the money. I have been using this for several months now with no significant issues. It is a great all in one system. I got Hamstring Curl Squat Rack Attachment to help with heavier lat workouts. I also got the aluminum pulleys to better support heavier weighted lifts. My only complaint with the cage is that the trolly's max weight is supposedly 1,500 lbs but there's no way you can actually fit that many plates on the trolly bars. This is a misleading advertisement. It's a 2:1 pulley system so you need to double the weight for any exercise versus what you're used to at the gym. I only had bumper plates and found I couldn't physically fit enough of them on the trolly bars to get heavier lifts in (150lbs+ actual pulling weight). The average 45lbs bumper plate for example is 2.3-2.5 inches thick. The bars for the trolly are about 8'' each side. So you can really only fit 6 x 45lbs bumper plates on this and maybe some small 10-15 lbers one each side. So do the math, 270/2 is only 135 is pulling weight. Because of this, I recommend using cast iron slimmer plates if you want to go heavy. CAP barbell sells their 45 lbs iron plates that are only 1.2'' thick. So you could get up to 540lbs using those. Still not 1500 lbs though... I wish they had a better trolly system to actually support the weight they advertised or at least make it more practical for heavier lifting.

Off the bat I give it 5 stars! Shipping: Ordered March 6th. Delivered March 10th. BOTH boxes! As many people will notice, boxes can arrive a little beat up. But riding on the floor of FedEx/UPS trucks for those days can do that. Nothing was damaged and all parts were there. NOTE: both boxes are heavier. Team lift if you are very strong in the core or back. Lift with your legs! Assembly: Not too bad! Instructions make you think a little bit. But the parts are listed and marked in each bag. Meaning each part is wrapped in plastic with a letter and number on them. Hardware is in separate boxes too, also lettered and tells you how many of each you have. Each STEP to assembly will list the parts you need and how many of each. It’s one STEP per PAGE. Makes it easier. All in all it took my lady and I 3 hours to put together. Durability: Okay this is what a lot of people worry about. It is DURABLE. 2x2 steel uprights. There’s plates that go around the bottom to secure it even more after bolted together. Does not move much. Sure you’ll have a TINY bit of shake when you’re doing pull-ups. But other than that not much! Functionality: The cables it comes with actually are awesome. Seem commercial gym quality. I got the plastic pulleys since I see no need for aluminum. You can put some 3 in 1 oil on them to suit your needs if be. I like the landmine attachment. You can put that either side of the rack, chose a hole. Most of the attachments it comes with are actually nice. I got aftermarket VBAR for pushdowns and a different lat pull down attachment and D handles. Theres enough space between uprights to bench press inside the cage. Conclusion: I really like this rack. I think it is a great buy. Heavy duty and very nice to add to a home gym. I was a little hesitant on it as to just how sturdy and how it would perform at that price range. But, it exceeds expectations. I’m sure it will with you too!!

Took me about 4 hours to put together by myself. Instructions are picture only, but very easy to follow. I recommend a partner for some parts if available, but one person can handle the project. I also recommend a ratchet and socket or ratcheting wrenches over the included wrenches they provide for the build. It’ll help with time and will be easier to build. Once completed, the cage seems very solid and sturdy. All moving parts seem to move smooth and without any problems. I will be adding a silicone based lubricant as recommended to the guide rod and pulley system, which should make things even better. Can do so many different exercises, and I will be cancelling my gym membership soon. Being able to do almost every necessary exercise with this one cage is great. Now just waiting on my bench with leg extension/curl attachment to complete the home gym and help me save money on a membership. Highly recommended! And looks great!

Ordered this power cage thinking it would be ok. Assembly requires two people. Instructions are nice and clear. Had an issue with one of the uprights where there was a cracked weld. Contacted mikolo and they quickly resolved my issue by sending me a replacement with in 3 days. Let me tell you this machine does it all. Bench press, squats, pull ups. Has a landmine, dips different attachments. Couldn’t be happier. Time to get shredded

I’m a huge fan of home gyms and a bit of a rogue snob. Rogue is insanely expensive but I thought I was getting quality whe I purchased from them. This Mikolo Power Cage is absolutely fantastic and all you will need to get a nice workout in. It’s surprisingly simple to put together if you have 2 people and incredibly durable. The design is efficient yet provides variety, the unit is stable so you don’t have to worry about hurting yourself during your workout, and aesthetically the model is just nice to look at….its a dope power cage! 10/10 good investment

Best product use a daily multiple different features available. Took one day to set up the whole machine.

Excellent unit. Easy to set up. Very sturdy. Had a damaged pulley upon arrival (likely happened during shopping). They sent a new one right away. Quick customer support. Pulley system needs to go thru a little break in but that’s to be expected. I would recommend this purchase.

Easy to assemble (took about 2.5hr alone) been using it for 3 months now still solid.

Super happy with my purchase, the power rack is well built and super sturdy. Will definitely recommend!!

Damaged but not affected usages.
