What reviewers say
Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.
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. (2 sourced reviews, 1 lab-tested.)
Praised: Space-saving wall-mounted design that folds to about four inches off the wall; Folds down and up in seconds with one hand ("only takes a finger") thanks to the assistive gas shocks; Highly customizable: three rack heights, multiple pull-up bar styles (none, straight, multi-grip, kipping), multiple colorways, and 3x3 uprights compatible with other manufacturers' attachments.
Flagged: Expensive — about $850 to $1,400 for the rack alone, around $3,400 for the full PRO Home Gym Package; BarBend calls PRx gear pricey; Installation is demanding: lag bolts must go correctly into studs, a stringer or ledger board may be needed, and a helper is recommended; Folds upward rather than sideways, so vertical/ceiling clearance must be measured carefully before buying.
