Just a guy –
Overall great value, but has some flaws.
I really like this cage overall after one week of use. Good value for what it is; really donât think there is many better options at this price point. Itâs on the larger end, but not too big. I got the PLM03. A lot of people complain about ease of assembly, but I really didnât find it bad at all. The pulley system took a little while to figure out, but wasnât tough by any means; watch the video that is in the advertisement of the product here. Make sure you tighten the bolts as tight as possible to help with the sway. I went over them twice.The positives:*Despite the plastic, the pulley system operates nicely, and does the job.*great value; I spent about 4x the amount I spent on my last cage and feel like i got 50x the value.*doesnât feel like itâs going to fall apart and feels like it can handle some weight. The materials are durable, but could benefit from a thicker gauge steel.*love the dip handles, landmine attachment, and the row attachment for your feet.*overall design is sleek and it came in 3 nicely packed and labeled boxes that made it easy to inventory; I definitely had to watch the instructional video to put the pulley system together though.The negatives:*The very first obvious flaw is the attachments; not a big deal, but I definitely suggest buying better attachments for the pulley system.*Second is the left to right sway. Not sure why there isnât some type of support beam(s) on the back third of the cage. It ultimately makes it less sturdy and makes it wobbly. It is still functional, but i plan to go over all the bolts again to see if this helps at all. – it did help, but still sways.*The guard bars have a rubber handle that falls off, so make sure they are on there tightly or the guard bars will just fall out; not ideal. Might try some super glue or something to try and keep them from falling if I need to use them if I hit muscle failure.*Lastly, plastic weight holders. Not a fan of the plastic as it was already flawed upon arrival. I canât put the weights on all the way on the left side of the pulley system because the screw is bulging out bigger than the circumference of your standard Olympic plate. Leaves about a 2 inch gap. (See pictures)Overall, love this cage and it is a huge upgrade. The plastic on the pulley system and left to right sway are the only reasons Iâm giving 4 stars instead of 5. I reached out to try and get a replacement weight holder for the pulley system as the one that came with it doesnât function properly. If you arenât massive and arenât trying to lift competitively, this is a great cage for the money and works great for a home gym. (I will update this as time goes on and once I go over all the bolts again).Edit 9/20/24: went over all the bolts again and there is still left to right sway; appears it is just inevitable. I tightened all of the bolts as tight as I could possibly tighten them by hand using forged steel tools; Iâd be nervous taking an impact drill to them. That being said, it does help; I highly recommend tightening them a second or even third time until they are snug as can be. There is no front to back sway though. Pulley system is starting to be crooked and bend because of the faulty plastic weight holder and the plastic parts in general (Iâve only put on 90 lbs; 45lb plate on each side and used for 1 week). Still, really like the cage, but not sure how long this will last with heavy use; my concern is mainly the pulley system essentially being made of plastic and thin metal.Update: 9/22/24: customer service has already replied to my inquiry willing to help, so I am hopeful. There is also a page on facebook that has a lot of good info managed by the company. Iâm checking to see if there is the ability to get aluminum pulleys to replace the plastic ones. I think it will help a lot. I will continue to update.Update 9/24/24: customer service already shipped a new weight frame. Iâm seeing on their website that they have an add on to replace the weight frame with stacked weights. Definitely going to do that. I think that will help really stabilize this thing along with the aluminum pulleys when they are in stock. This company has great customer service and is really striving to improve their products based on customer service. Bumping my review to 5 stars.

Poor quality
I like the idea of having a full rack with cables. I was using one side of the cables and it dropped from the top to the bottom and broke the plastic sliders to keep the pulley in the track. I did make sure it was secured prior to lifting. Itâs interesting to use plastic as itâs prone to break regardless. It also moves when I lift a barbell off of the j-hooks. I made sure it was level and all the bolts were tightened down. I just donât really feel like the quality is in this rack. But itâs decently priced.

Great value for the price poor instructions
The instructions were pictures with no words and often very hard to see. I got an academic scholarship in college, so Iâm not a dummy, but I still put things on in the wrong order and had to redo them which wasted a lot of time. Why donât they give written instructions with bigger pictures!

Amazing Customer Service
The product is great all around. Took some time to put together but it fits our garage gym great. We had to contact customer service a couple times, they were so responsive too. Great company!

Twisted cables
I have had it for about a Month. Use it everyday. When I first set it up I noticed the left cables were twisted a bit. The more I used it, the more it got worse. Until it was unusable. I am giving it a temporary 3 stars because Iâm not sure if missed something while assembling it. Taking it apart and looking it over this weekend. Then I will update my rating.

Great investment for a home gym
This machine is worth the investment if you have room for it. I had a couple of friends help install and as long as someone can follow instructions itâs really not difficult to put together. Have used it a few times so far. Fairly sturdy for the price point and the cable crossover is awesome. One box came randomly a couple days ago earlier than the two boxes that were on the tracking information, but everything was delivered in about a week.

Customer Service
My cage shipped with a defective part and we could not complete assembly. Major LUTIE was extremely helpful when contacted about resolving the issue free of charge. Exactly what a customer expects when unfortunate things happen!!!!!! 10/10

Good for a home gym
Good for a home gym setup. Instructions are a bit confusing especially when installing the cables. Overall a good purchase.
