## What reviewers say

**PRx Profile PRO Squat Rack with Pull-Up Bar** — Coverage is real but thin: only one whitelisted outlet — BarBend — was reachable, across two articles (a folding-rack roundup with hands-on testing, and a non-tested PRx Home Gym write-up). BarBend loaded the rack with 600 pounds and called it rock solid, and both articles praise the four-inch folded depth and the one-handed gas-shock fold. Both also flag price (about $850 to $1,400 for the rack alone, around $3,400 for the full PRO package) and a demanding stud-mounted installation. Note that the roundup entry is written around the PRx PRO Home Gym Package that contains the Profile PRO Folding Rack rather than the standalone rack-with-pull-up-bar SKU, so treat it as line-level rather than trim-exact.
