Great rack for the price July 20, 2008 I recently got this dumbbell rack and couldn't be happier. I have two cats and dumbbells ranging from 5 to 45 lbs. Anyone who has cats knows that that combo is a recipe for great gobs of cat fur collecting under the weights and no matter how often you vaccuum or sweep, it somehow manages to recongregate. This rack gets all the dumbbells off the floor, preventing the collection of fur and other dirt, and makes the weights a lot more accessible.
The one comment to add to those of the others here is that this rack really only works well with hexagonal dumbbells. I had two round-bell 10-pound dumbbells and when I tried to place them on the rack, they slipped off and fell. So I've had to replace them. I prefer the hexagonals anyway, but if you have nothing but round-bell weights, you might want to look at a different design. But if you have the standard hexagonals, you'll love this. It is compact, solid, and surprisingly solid for the price. Plus, if you are a Amazon Prime member, it will ship for free, which is pretty amazing given its weight. I highly recommend this rack.
Great July 19, 2008 This rack was very easy to assemble, looks nice, and easily holds my dumbels 5-40 lb. It is very sturdy and the sloped design makes it easy to pick up the dumbells from any level.
Built solid, easy to put together June 23, 2008 This item is from the same company I bought my plate holder from. I was a lot more pleased with this rack than the plate tree (not that there was much wrong with the tree, it was just a little on the light side as far as the gauge of steel used.) This thing is built tough, and is large enough to accommodate plenty of dumbbells. I have a few different brands of dumbbells, and had no problems with them fitting this rack. Like the plate tree, assembly for this was really easy. There's more piece for this than the plate tree, so it took a little longer, but it was still basic. Everything went together with large nuts and bolts. The rubber feet both protect the surface of the floor, and prevent the rack from moving around. This item, combined with the plate tree, really sharpened up the look of my home gym. Everything is nice and neat and has its place.
Bottom line is I'm pleased with this item, and would recommend it. Oh yes, it was also shipped in a timely manner.
great rack June 21, 2008 Easy to assemble. Solid as a rock. Convenient design for grabbing your dumbbells. Holds pairs, from 10-50 lbs. Good quality at a good price.
Good Value February 21, 2008 I was looking for a value-priced rack for my expensive Hampton rubber-coated dumbbells. This fit the bill exactly. It is quite heavy and sturdy and went together quickly. The smallest dumbells seem to rest on the handles instead of the weights but I cut rubber mat strips to line the shelves on the rack and they now clear the rails nicely. This rack looks great in my workout room and now my weights are finally off the floor! I would recommend this rack.
