Marcy Olympic Weight Plate Tree for 2-Inch Plates Weight Storage Rack

Seems study, fits all my weight plates. Was easy to put together! Rolls nice and easy

This thing is perfect and super easy to put together. Exactly what needed and exactly as described.

Very quick and easy to put together, did it by myself in about 20-30 mins. I used a socket wrench, it definitely would have been faster with a drill. So far it’s holding up well, I may change the casters in the future for ones with brakes. I have a textured garage floor, so it doesn’t roll off easily, but getting it around is not a challenge. I’m storing more than 300lbs total on it and it hasn’t fallen apart yet. Including the barbell, it’s about 323lbs. I plan to add an EZ bar as well, so I’m hoping it’ll be up to the task. I’ll update this review if anything bad happens! One thing to mention is that the barbell sleeves are a bit large. This makes it easier to put them away, but the bar leans a bit to the side when stored. Not a huge deal for me, may bother some people though.

As you can see I haven’t put it to its full potential but it does hold all my other fitness stuff well. It’s seems very sturdy and love the fact I can move it around when you have a small space. It came with all the parts and was easy to put together. I would recommend it.

This thing is overbuilt in the best way. As soon as I pulled the first piece out of the box, I knew I made the right decision. I was concerned about stability, but this thing is solid as a rock. I was concerned about the plastic Olympic sleeves pulling off with the plates, but there is a set screw for each sleeve and little chance it will ever pull off unintentionally. It rolls smooth, and can hold a bunch of plates. Only thing left to desire, is a brake for the wheels. This is perfect for a small home gym as you can simply move your whole weight stack out of the way when not in use.

I purchased this rack from an obviously well known comany in this field because I rightfully thought it will be well made. The metal used was robust. The paint finish is quality. The casters are very heavy duty and facilitates movement of the loaded rack in a relatively easy manner. A positive feature not found in some other weight racks is that you can store both 1" and 2" plates by simply removing the plastic sleeves to expose the smaller diameter metal rods. The rack was very well packaged, no damage or missing parts' and the instructions were clear. Two Allen wrenches were supplied. You do need a pair of adjustable wrenches or metric fixed sized wrenches. A metric socket set would significantly speed the assembly. The rack was a good value for the price point. I hope this review was helpful.

Great quality. Very sturdy and heavy duty. Assembly took roughly 2 hours for a me (as a female). Assembly Tips: - Step 1 Portion: Use a ratcheting screwdriver instead of the tool that comes included - Step 2 Portion: The wheel brackets were difficult to get attached to the main frame. I had to hammer the frame in to get it flushed and have the holes lineup. - Step 3 Portion: Use a flash light to line up holes of the 3 poles to the main frame. I saw a comment that the pole covers, where the weight sits on, slide off. Make sure to tighten the covers to the metal frames as seen in my photo.

Very easy to build and good instructions. Sturdy and exactly what I was looking for since have a tight space. Just roll it out when needed then roll back into the corner when done. Good buy!

The build quality exceeded my expectations, and I honestly think this rack deserves far more attention than it gets. The first thing I noticed was that the main upright is welded directly to the base, that makes a huge difference in stability. With constant loading and unloading of heavy plates, welded frames can prevent wobble to develop overtime. This welded design feels incredibly solid and gives me confidence that it will be safe and last a long time. One of my favorite features is that the storage pegs come with Olympic adapter sleeves. Without the sleeves, the 1-inch pegs fit standard weight plates. Once you install the sleeves, they fit 2-inch Olympic plates as well. I really appreciate is the two vertical barbell holders. We own multiple bars, so having dedicated storage for two additional bars helps keep the space more organized. Overall, this rack feels better built than several more expensive options I considered. It's sturdy, versatile, thoughtfully designed, and an excellent value. Cons: The caster wheels do not have locking brakes. If you're removing several heavy bumper plates, the rack might roll. For that reason, we chose not to install the wheels, which makes the rack feel extremely stable. The instructions for installing the storage pegs could be clearer. Each peg has a small alignment hole that is hidden once it's inserted into the upright pole, making it difficult to line up the retaining screw. I eventually figured out that installing the plastic Olympic sleeves on both sides first helps center the peg and align the hole with the screw, making installation much easier. It would be helpful if the instructions included this tip, as it would save new users a lot of trial and error.

I have used quite a few different racks for my home gym, and this is one of the best. The shape is perfect for saving space in a small area, whereas others take up too much room with “odd” shapes. The shape also lets you have easy access to all weights when it is up against a wall, whereas one side of other racks are usually blocked from access. The wheels make it nicely portable, and while they do not have locks a couple rubber pads (easily and cheaply purchased) underneath keep it from moving around if you want it to stay in place. Finally, it fits enough plates that it has enough room for any phase of training, although you might eventually need to move some of the smaller plates off in order to make room for bigger plates as you progress from intermediate to advanced progressive overload, but this shouldn’t be a problem over a short to medium term progression and would take a long time to get to the point where you would have to replace plates.

The rack is sturdy, and it is very handy to be able to move it easily on wheels. Just wish the arms were slightly longer to hold more plates. The provided clips are strong and reliable. The barbell holder feature is useless because the wells are over 5" off the ground, so you would have to have a very short barbell or very high ceilings in order to put a barbell into it. Does not work with my 7 foot olympic bar.

This is a pretty sweet deal. The rack can be fitted for both types of plates simultaneously. Olympic plates can fit snugger on the "Olympic sleeves" that are supplied, but you could certainly still put 2-inch diameter plates on a 1-inch diameter bar. It doesn't roll around super smoothly and there is no caster, but that doesn't bother me that much as it's much cheaper than every tree with wheels in the market. I'd say it's worth it if you're looking to commit and buy a "really nice" but cheaper tree. I have a CAP weight tree that I like a lot, but it's hard to move around and the plates are hanging off of the sides cause I've accumulated so many. With this, there is enough space to safely put two more 45's if I ever wanted to, but I just put collars on there. I thought the build was pretty easy to assemble, but it's kind of tedious, especially if you use the wheels, but it was acceptable. IGN 10/10

Really happy with this. It is much taller than I anticipated but has been very helpful in cleaning up the extra weights off the floor. I like the fact that I can use both standard and Olympic weights. It was nice than basic tools are included, but a drill was far more efficient. Moves easily even when loaded so longs as it is on a smooth even surface. I installed the bolts around the wheels in the reverse order to ensure there were no sharp edges facing up. There was sufficient space to allow the casters to spin freely despite the extra bolt length. Pinching hazard but it was the lesser of the two evils.
