| Product Description: | Choose accessories for BalanceFrom PC-1 Series Power Cage here: BalanceFrom PC-1 Compatible Accessories The benefits of power racks are numerous; they allow for a safe free-weight workout by eliminating any dangers like falling weights, failure, or accidents by the use of bar catches on the side pegs.

The bigger issues with this rack are:
1 - They do NOT come with safety bars. They used to. The safety bars are still in the photos, but they are NOT included.
2 - They do not come with weight plate storage horns, which most people need.
3 - It's a metric rack, not compatible with standard 1"x1" rack attachments, so it's hard(er) to source accessories.
Considering all that, I personally prefer the Mikolo rack with its lat pulldown attachment that is on sale at Walmart. The price fluctuates between $299 and $330 for that rack. It comes with lower gauge (= thicker) steel, a ton of attachments, reportedly standard 1"x1" uprights, with 1" holes spaced 2" apart. (Reportedly. Many youtubers will call 50mm 2 inches, which it is not.)
But for $158 for the rack + lat pulldown / low row attachment, you can't beat this deal if that is all you need.
Community Reviews
This BalanceFrom lat pulldown and low row attachment turns a compatible cage into a basic high and low pulley setup for pulldowns, rows, curls, and pushdowns. The price is the big draw, and the unit is described as functional, reasonably smooth, and sturdy enough for regular home use. Fit and included parts are the main headaches, with reports of missing safety bars, awkward accessory sizing, and some bent pieces. Installation is straightforward but can be fiddly, so it feels like a practical add on if the cage match is right.
Common Questions (5)
The safety bars are inconsistent: some units arrive with them, while multiple reports say they are missing. If they are absent, Walmart has reportedly refunded part or all of the purchase in some cases.
It is described as functional and sturdy for normal home-gym use, with smooth operation and daily use reported without issues. The main caveat is that the rack is not aimed at extreme heavy squatting or advanced powerlifting loads.
Fitment is rack-specific. It attaches to the BalanceFrom model's ground bar and may fit some branded cages, but it will not work on racks that lack that bar, and the 2.35-inch hole spacing can make accessory sizing awkward.
It is a high/low pulley system for lat pulldowns, rows, tricep pushdowns, and cable curls using a single cable. It is not a true cable crossover attachment.
Installation is straightforward, but it can be awkward because you need access to the top and bottom of a tall rack and may need to pull the cage away from the wall. One report put the install at about 30 minutes with basic tools.

Is there another one I should be checking instead ?
Thanks for the insight, looking at the Mikolo on Walmart, it says it is 14 gauge whereas the Balancefrom is 11 gauge. I am looking at https://www.walmart.com/ip/Mikolo.../800851001

Watch some YouTube reviews. Manufacturers unfortunately lie about the gauge of steel they use. The only part that's 11 gauge is some of the connecting corner pieces, NOT the uprights. The uprights are much thinner steel. Technically, the BalanceFrom's uprights are not 1"x1", but rather 60mmx60mm. So the steel tubes can be of thinner steel for the same load capacity. The BalanceFrom is not the highest capacity rack. I don't think that's a big deal unless you are an advanced bodybuilder or power lifter. I know I will never reach its limits as lifting weights is not my fulltime job. At my age, my tendons and ligaments don't like it if I go higher than 1.5x my bodyweight.
I like the Mikolo more because it comes with a bunch of attachments (e.g. 4 weight horns, pad that hold you down while doing lat pulldowns, safety pins, pegs for rubber bands, handles for lat pulldown, T-bar row handle, landmine attachment) that I actually need.
