Compared to other racks you can feel a little closer to Rich Froning as this rack bears his name. You will also get some little extras which you otherwise have to pay for.
Cons of the Froning rack
The
Rogue Froning RML 4100C is branded and therefore comes with a little extra coin to make it to your home. If you want the most rack for the dollar you might want to opt for something else.
Alternatives to the Froning rack
For a budget of 1.150$ you can also opt for
- 1x Rogue RM3 Monster rack @ 1.145$
Rather than going with the
Froning rack out of the
Monster Lite series you can go for the
RM3 Monster half rack. This has the advantage that you can freely choose the height and color of your rack while giving you less space in the rack itself.
This is the basis that the Froing rack is built on. You will get a Monser Lite full rack where you can freely choose the color.
Conclusion
The Froning rack is a good starting point to build your home gym around. It has everything you need except storage options for plates.
