Any recommendations on a decently priced one? For me, but my kids love participating when I work out - think my son would use it as well.

There's not much to them to think about. Just buy a pull up bar or some rings on Amazon

I have a dip attachment for my power rack as well as a pull-up bar on the rack itself. I wish I had had a power rack when my kids were little they could’ve used it like a jungle gym lol

I already had a bench, i do dips on that so i just got a over door pullup bar.

It was more about the room, adding the pull up bar over the door doesnt add any more shite on the floor and i dont have to move it around for other stuff.

some of those pull up dip stations just dont seem sturdy, so if you get one with a sturdy base, it takes up a lot more room than you would think.

My bench came with a pull down attachment that sucks, it has a nice bar though. I attached that sumbitch to the ceiling with a metal bracket I didn't use for a garage rack. Works great. Does not provide dip abilities, though.

When purchasing a power rack, I think pull up bar and dip attachments are a must.

The dip attachment takes up a lot of space when it’s not in use, but high rep bw and/or weighted dips with a belt are a completely different exercise than bench dips.

If I had been in better shape when I started lifting, I might’ve gone with a set of rings for dips instead of the dip bar; less of a spade concern and there are a lot kore exercises you can do with them…
