After about 6 months of use, I did have a pin break off of one of the parts. This company replaced it without any problems, stood behind their guarantee, and handled this with a level of professionalism that will make me purchase from them again as well as recommend this company and their products.

A solid product, and given the price tag on it, it's one of the best options in the market. Main pros is that it's durable, relatively sturdy compared to other squat stands of the same type, and has a high weight capacity. The plate holding pegs are a big advantage too, since having weights on there makes your stand far sturdier. One of the main drawbacks this item has is that some pieces are just absolutely superfluous. I cannot fathom how anyone would get any use out of those mini safety stops or that secondary mini-hook to put a barbell on (the black piece you see between the two other black pieces - main hooks at the top and mini safety stops). I actually took one look at those mini hooks and decided they weren't worth using, and I will probably take off the safety stops too because all they do is make it more difficult to adjust the height of the main rack (the bolt that holds the safety stop in place will also hold the top/main hook in place, so you have to pull two safety stops in order to adjust the height of the rack, which is cumbersome). All in all, I love the product but I can't help but think that it could have been even cheaper if they didn't include those two components (4 pieces altogether) that are absolutely useless.

I spoke with manufacturer prior to purchase and I knew what I was about to get. When it arrived it was exactly what I expected -- works exactly as expected. Great buy.
