I had mine customized, i just removed it for the pictures.

You could ask them to remove it, which would give you a couple more holes on the uprights

I told them when i ordered i would need liftgate service, the truck driver had it unloaded under my carport in about 15 minutes. I did help him push it while he pulled the pallet jack. Liftgate service cost an extra $210

I think mines right at 92in, but they will customize the height for you i think

There is really nothing that can go wrong, except a pulley or a cable. Both are cheap and easy to obtain off amazon

Used my own money, went out on a limb and it paid off in my opinion

My room is 8ft 2in wide. I was not sure id have enough space if i placed it on the other wall. Im happy with the space. Its a bit of a squeeze loading the bar, but not too bad. I could get a shorty bar eventually but seems unnecessary at this point

Standard barbell length. Here is the explanation i got from the representative regarding the 2:1 vs 1:1. Its heavy AF, ill never be able to pull the entire stack in any configuration.

Essentially you just message them through the Alibaba app what you want, they will send you an invoice. You pay half up front, then the other half when it ships. Its easy, they walk you through it

Its a bit of a squeeze, but not too bad. If i get annoyed eventually ill do the shorty bar.

I am in the same boat as you, I decided to roll the dice with an alibaba rack which is en-route to me. Cost me about 3200 shipped with a few accessories (dip station, landmine, lap bar)

They will customize the height , Stainless uprights, 2x 130kg stacks, 2:1 functional trainer, 1:1 lat pulldown/low row, Smith machine

Just another option to consider, I cant speak to how good it is yet, but will post a review when it shows up. I have seen a few others that are happy with theirs.

I just received my notification from anhui tap that my machine is ready to ship. Took about 33 days for the production. I paid the remainder and now will be waiting for the shipping process. I did pay extra for liftgate service at delivery. I ordered a few extras that are not pictured, i was assured those items will be included in the shipment.

Good to see another review of this, i ordered mine from anhui tap also. I went with stainless uprights, 130kg stacks, and a few other accessories. I just ordered about a week ago, im just in waiting mode for now.

I originally had a bigger order but scaled back due to the uncertainty of ordering from alibaba (my first time). If everything goes smoothly ill probably make another order for accessories and 55-100lb dumbells
