Your last sentence is a bit misleading. Most attachments will not fit this rack. It has tubing/uprights that are 2.3x2.3". The "universal" size is 3x3", with many other, less expensive racks using 2x2". If you want weight plate holders, spotter arms, lever arms, belt squat, etc., then you should buy the ones listed with this rack. Most will not fit. There were a couple of brands available on Amazon when this was on sale a couple of years ago, but unsure if they are still there. There are several threads on this rack here on SD. It looks like this is the old pic again, and the rack does not include the squat safety rails. I have this rack, and this is a great buy! Use washers on each end of the bolts when assembling for some added strength/stiffness. EDIT: I just noticed that the attachments state they fit 2.5x2.5" uprights. They may not fit this rack, which looks to be the same 2.3x2.3" rack that was sold the last time this was on clearance at Walmart.

I have this rack because I thought it was a good deal, and it is if you don't really need any other attachments other than the ones that come with it. If you're good with this, then this is a fantastic deal and you'll likely be satisfied with this. If you think you will be buying attachments for this that will bolt or be placed on the rack then you should reconsider. It is very difficult / impossible to find attachments because the uprights are not standard size. When I wanted a belt squat attachment I needed to drill new holes into an upright and love the fact that it does not fit nicely but still works just fine. When I wanted padded j cups to protect my bar, I needed to cut and stick furniture pads on the existing bar hooks since I could find any to fit the upright. It can be made to work, but will be need to be made to work instead of just buying something that fits.

Yes, specifically HulkFit. And if they are no longer in business, then that would limit some of the attachments as they are who primarily sold me mine.

Thanks for the correction. I should have said that there were multiple companies using the size not that the size was a standard.

This BalanceFrom power cage is a budget home gym starter that gets the basics done for squats, benching, pullups, and lat work. The cage and lat pulldown have held up well over time, and the low price is the main draw versus pricier racks. The biggest catch is attachment fit, since the uprights are an odd size and many third party accessories do not fit cleanly. The listing also appears to omit the safety bars or straps shown in photos, so it works best if you only need the included setup.

  • The rack and lat pulldown attachment can work as intended after over two years of use.

  • The lat pulldown attachment can function properly and the bottom row function can work well.

  • The rack can hold up in an approximately 800-pound drop test without the rack breaking.

  • The rack can be a solid starter option for home strength training when upgrading later.

    redahtamn

  • The rack may not include the squat safety bars shown in listing photos, which can require sourcing separately.

    tejj11A

  • The lat pulldown attachment price can change depending on whether the rack bundle or attachment is selected.

    jopamifejopamife

  • The upright size can be 2.3x2.3 inches, which can make many attachments not fit.

    ClassReptilia

  • The bottom support bar placement can interfere with bench pressing, requiring bench repositioning.

Wow. I have this in black. I love it. Awesome price.
Concur, I bought this a few years ago and its held up well. I am pretty sure I even paid more than 100 at the time so this is a steal

100.00 - you can't even buy weights for a 100.00. Most of us are men so will figure it out and modify it to work. Great deal - thanks

The lat pull down/low row/cable crossover optional attachment is also on sale for $100
Where do you see the cable crossover attachment? I've been looking for it forever! I bought this rack in 2022 and need a bit expansion with cables!

Do you have any leads on other vendors who make attachments for this since HulkFit went out of business? I'm trying to find the cable crossover attachment and I haven't had any luck

Quote from D15AV0W3D View quoted comment :
While I chose to spend more money on a higher quality rack, that drop test is not really relevant. Safety straps should never be used on cheap racks like this. Pins only. Straps will inherently put inward force when under heavy load, pulling the uprights towards each other. Pins will transfer force downward only. If they did that same drop on pins, the rack wouldn't have buckled.
The videos that were linked in the OP are for a different rack, so you cannot justify stating "cheap racks like this." The same test was not performed on this rack. Abusing and misusing any rack can be problematic. A rack claiming 1,000-pound weight maximum does not mean that you can drop 1,000 off your shoulders into straps or pins and everything is going to be a-okay. That is not how it was tested and it is not what the maximum weight means.

It is not a cable crossover. Walmart has it wrong, as do some on this thread. It is a high/low pulley setup for lat pulldowns and rows, etc. There is an "expensive" cable crossover system on Amazon. I am uncertain if it will for this rack, but this looks like a new version of the cable crossover. They had one for the old rack, too, which is also on Amazon. This appears to be the new version. https://www.amazon.com/Fitvids-Ye...0FPQW7GJ2/

I already bought this deal and received it. I wanted to let everyone know it does NOT include the safety bars or safety straps. I looked and I could not find any place to buy them separately. I contacted balancefrom and they just told me to contact Walmart and walmart could only process a return. The listing also does not mention them. If those are important to you (they were for me) you may want to look elsewhere.

What size is the bar frame? Is it 2x2 or 2.5x2.5? I'm trying to figure out if my current attachments will work or not. Thanks!

Looks like 4-inch spacing between the 1-inch holes for this BalanceFrom cage.

Was thinking the same thing. Don't use straps for safety.
