Beetje geschrokken hoe de onderdelen van het dumbellrack eruit zagen. Het is erg lelijk gelast en daarna zwart gespoten. Maar er staat wel een stevig rack voor mijn gewichten met fijne rubberen oplegranden zodat de boel niet beschadigd. Het doet wat het moet doen.

Oggetto molto comodo dove ho riposto tutti i pesi della palestra.

I spent WAY too much time looking at different small barbell rack listings on Amazon and elsewhere. Many look shoddily built, too small, too big, no rubber grips to stop scratches - and worst of all, the reviews are so contradictory and confusing. I narrowed my shortlist to 3-4 items, but NOTHING, not the listings, nor the reviews told me what I really wanted to know. In the end I chose the "CAP Barbell Black A Frame Dumbbell Rack" because;- First off this rack is super easy to assemble & very stable (unlike many reviews say). All you need is a spanner, or best a socket wrench (have), and it took me less than 10 minutes, fully done.- I have 3 sets of 10kg, 12.5kg & 15kg Dumbells (~22/27/33 pounds) - so I wanted a 3 to 4x rack (this one is 5x).- It's well balanced, has a wide base, so is rock solid and it's specs say it holds 91kg (200 pounds). I have 75kg on it, so could add 2x 7.5kg and be under spec - and it's easily strong enough to hold a pair of 20kg, so 115kg (over spec) so it's very stable & strong WEIGHT wise. SIZE wise (as in Hex head) is trickier.- Those are kind of medium weights for an average Man, heavy for a Woman. So they're kind of larger hex heads - so the spacing between each "hook" is important. AND THAT is what I couldn't find anywhere.- Many reviews are by Women, and they say it's hard to assemble (it's not) and sometimes for little "chick's" neoprene colourful weights they don't fit and so on...or sometimes reviews are by Guys with HEAVY weights - like 20kg, 25kg, and those suckers have BIG hex heads, so they won't fit so well.- But if you're like me, and you have, say, 5kg, 7.5kg, 10kg, 12.5kg, 15kg & even 20kg large rubber head (just, especially if you only have 3-4 sets, depending on weight/size) hex dumbbells, this is a great rack.- The sizes I mention I have aren't too big - they JUST fit. But above that, you need a much bigger style of rack. This is a budget, cheap, $60AUD rack, and it works great for my small home gym. Probably also totally suitable for the smaller, candy coloured "chick's" weights.- Another problem people mention is not being able to fit your hand in between to lift the dumbbell out. I have smallish hands for a Man, and I can (just) do it for 10kg, but heavier, no - BUT that's not how you should lift heavy dumbbells out anyway - my 5th photo shows how you're meant to do it with two hands.--> FINALLY here is what I COULDN'T find ANYWHERE (for any racks!). My 6th photo shows what I suspected...the "gap" between each "hook" gets smaller as you go up. So my 3x dumbbell sets fit fine on top of each other at the BOTTOM. But at the top/they don't fit! As you can see I spaced them out anyway. My pic 6 shows with a tape measure, and they lose 2cm per "hook" as you go up. Hope this helps save some people time. But unless you have really heavy weights, I recommend this as really good home gym dumbbell rack.

I was looking for a dumbbell rack for five pairs of small dumbbells to fit out my home gym which I use for personal training. Most I saw were in the region of £50-70 while this was £40 & looked identical.I've previously bought Cap weight plate storage trees & was suitably impressed so I bought this. You will require a spanner in addition to the supplied hex key (& I'd recommend using your own, longer hex key too) but it was easy to assemble. I imagine it is going to give me decades of service as it is not a heavy use item.

Jättebra!
