MAJOR FITNESS F22 Power Rack, 1600lbs All-in-One Squat Rack with Dual Pulley System, Heavy-Duty Steel Frame, Attachments & Storage for Home Gym Strength Training

I’ve been using this system for a couple of months, and here’s my feedback: 1. Installation The cable machine arrived in three packages, with all parts clearly labeled and bolts shrink-wrapped for easy organization. The instructions are straightforward, but YouTube videos can be especially helpful. The setup took around four hours, and I found it helpful to have someone assist with holding parts in place during assembly. 2. Pulleys and Operation The default nylon pulleys work well. I later upgraded to aluminum pulleys, which made everything run silky-smooth. Each of the two independent pulley systems has a 2:1 ratio and a maximum weight capacity of 300 lbs, translating to around 150 lbs of effective resistance. 3. Build Quality The rack is made of 14-gauge steel. It’s not commercial-grade but feels sturdy for home use. Its compact size is a good fit for our upstairs game room. 4. Performance and Convenience This power rack has made it much easier to fit short workouts into my day, which has been very convenient. 5. Customer Service The customer service has been great. Zoe responded quickly to my questions and resolved issues efficiently. Conclusion I’d recommend the F22 for anyone looking to set up a solid home gym. It’s budget friendly, sturdy, space-friendly, and backed by responsive support.

Good overall for a cheaper starter rack, but the functional trainer carriage had too much friction on the guide rods and wouldn't glide - had to remove 1 of the 4 caps on each carriage to get them to glide without resistance. Would have been 5 stars if not for this issue. Seems like an easy fix to this would be for Major Fitness to redesign the carriage caps to have a 1mm wider inner diameter to give the rods more space to be slightly bent or out of alignment without creating friction. Once I removed one of the caps, the pulley glides smoothly. I may have preferred a 1:1 instead of a 2:1, so do your research on which one is better for your needs - for heavier weight exercises like a low row, it's a bit of a pain to stack enough weight (my normal 1:1 100 lbs I now need to stack 200 lbs). One of the plastic foot pieces that actually contacts the floor was broken on arrival, support sent me a new one. Poor design on putting the weight horns in the rear (I knew this ahead of buying it, I get they're limited on what they could do given the space needed for the functional trainer, but they could have done something better), I ended up not installing them because I don't want to have the rack sit an extra foot from the wall in my small gym space, and worry about damaging the wall with the weights - ended up buying a separate plate tree instead. Attachments are basic and don't spin, but sufficient for a starter set. Kind of awkward to figure out how to position a bench to do lat pull downs, removing the band pegs helps. The bench itself seems pretty solid, no complaints so far. Wider hole spacing makes it a little difficult to find the exact right height for some exercises, not sure I'd be able to use the safety arms to push my bench limits alone, and would be nice if J-hooks were an inch or 2 taller to catch & protect the rack. Pull up bar grips feel good. Landmine attachment is a nice touch. Can get much cheaper starter bar & plate set from Dick's if you don't need bumper plates (Fitness Gear 300lbs)

Good quality for the price! Easy to build and doesn’t wobble . I researched all comparable brands and went with major fitness. No regrets

Good/decent rack for the price. I purchased the rack and bench. Assembly was easy as all the hardware was included. Only reason for not giving 5 stars is the bench is to short and quality is a not up to par. Once you incline, my head has no place to rest. Also once the bench was assembled it has a negative incline when it should be flat. I had to modify with spacers. Contacted the company with this issue and they wanted to compensate me 20 bucks and to replace this with a quality bench is at the least $400. If I was to do over again I would purchase without the bench cause its pretty much useless to me. Aside from that I would purchase the rack again.

After using the machine one time, the cable was frayed and no longer moved smoothly. This basically renders one side of the machine useless.
