I got my power cage and lat pull down separately. It is home quality. But my son and I can do pull up (cage not bolted down). It's great and the Lat pull down works as it should. There is a row function at the bottom that works well also. I do sort of keep the vertical pole that the mechanism slides on lubed by lightly wiping wd40 every now and again. I paid a little less for the cage and pull down, 15 I think it was and the cage for 89. It's been a while I can't recall exactly but it was cheap and I'm more than satisfied. After over two years of use I would buy at this price if I sanded to get in the game.

I think the bars that the accessories slot into are 2.5"x2.5" with a 1" hole. It can be difficult to find accessories. But I believe most of the hulk fit accessories work well. Please fact check me on this before blind trusting.

Good luck and Get Big!

Fyi- wd 40 is not a lubricant. Use a lithium grease.

Looks like this set comes with the lat pull-down [walmart.com], and the multi-grips [walmart.com], and the J-hooks [walmart.com].

For some reason this set shows up as Freight shipping for me, even though the rack by itself shows as Free shipping.

Shows as free shipping for me, maybe it depends on location.

In case anyone's in need, see here [walmart.com] to order separately.

I bought this when it was on sale a year or so ago. This is an odd-sized rack with 2.3x2.3" uprights. Most racks are 3x3", with less expensive ones being 2x2". A few are 2.5x2.5". The Walmart listings on these have flawed information. The squat safety bars are not included but pictured, and there is no cable crossover included with this listing. There is a high pulley and a low pulley, but no crossover. However, this is a great deal. Use washers on each end of the bolts when assembling to add even more stability.

Is this stable enough for squats 200lbs or go with something like rep or rouge?

If you are going for budget and at a 200lbs squat I would definitely grab this and be confident in it. I have a slightly different version with 2x3 posts (not sure of the guage steel) but I failed a 300 squat the other day and had no concerns at all. Just make sure the safeties are secure.
Saying that, if you have the budget for something more expensive I would probably do that and get something that has everything you want. My main gripe with mine is that the lat attachment only has a top and bottom position and no adjustment options so its good for pulldowns and rows, but I am getting to the point where I would like dual pulleys and have them be adjustable. Mikolo has the M4 2.0 I have been looking at, it is about $1000 more than this one but has a lot more features and better build quality.

This is good for beginners. Will last me a solid 10 years, but I'm going to get the Rouge rack + cables in a few years.

Bought this a year ago, fantastic for my home gym. I took my time building it and it feels very sturdy.

Word of advice, turn the chin up bar the other way around so you do them inside the rack, not outside. This will reduce wobble and help alleviate the feeling of "oh dang, my fat behind is going to tip this thing over."

Not sure about this one, but on the Mikolo M4, you can also invert it so it angles down instead of up. If you have lower ceilings if gives you more clearance for pullups.

I bought those Multi-Grips by themselves a while back when they were super discounted from Walmart. I ended up returning them because they did not feel good doing dips on them and the way they are designed feels like it will fail sometime in the future. Try them yourself first or create some type of foam padding for it

haha no problem. I'd imagine it would also lower the center of gravity a bit, making it harder to tip. You could also flip and invert it so you are doing the pullups inside the unit vs the front of it.
