Like most Rogue products, this thing is overbuilt. When it comes to belt squats this one offers one of the most robust solutions at an affordable price (when compared to similar competitors). You get a much more vertical cable path on here and a lot of versatility whether you're dropping in in an existing rack, or using the cables to do other movements. The fact that it uses 3x3 tubing is also nice as you can get really creative with attachments.

Replaced my Rogue deadlift platform with this custom white one from Bishop. It’s a solidly built made in USA piece. Dimensions are similar to the Rogue so I reused my wood inserts and 2x2 tiles inside without issue. I rated it a bit lower on value bc it ends up being more expensive than the alternative.

I actually bought one of these to use on the end of my Log in order to store it vertically. While not the intended use case, it did work, although it did severely deform the roundness due to the log's weight and constant pressure put on it. I rated this 3 stars as the old tennis ball hack is cheaper and likely just as effective.

I got these for when I was trying to improve at log. Their size makes them ideal to catch any drops and can be used for many other things. They're firm but still add some cushion. Sadly while I don't "log" any longer, my kids have come to find a use case for these whenever they're down in the gym with me.

My Iron Bear is great! I have the 90+" version and 5 total shelves (4 DB/1 Misc). In addition to being fully customizable, I like how it stores 8 barbells and gives you the convenience of using 3x3 uprights to add even more versatility. In addition to holding a set of 5-100 fixed DBs (in saddles), mine also holds 9 barbells, several belts, as well as many odds and ends on the top utility shelf.

I love my Sorinex Collegiate GHD for its robustness and customization. However as far as performance goes, I found the Rogue Abram GHD I had previously was more stout at a much lower price point. There's a lot of lateral play in the footplate here and the MSRP and high shipping costs of Sorinex likely isn't worthwhile unless buying other pieces from them, or you just need a customized piece.
