Dropped the hammer on a Titan 3x3 squat stand

I kept looking for cheaper alternatives and maybe there's one out there but everything I considered seemed cheaply made or unsteady. This will hold much more weight than I'll use and I think it will be pretty stable. This will do me for a while as farvas purchases but Concept 2 rower is on my wish list.

I think you will like it. If you don't powerlift, it's all you need.

Came in yesterday. Seems solidly made. My only beef was there were no instructions, just a link to an online manual which was broken. According to Reddit this has been an ongoing problem for some months. You'd think a reputable company would fix that immediately. They have no after hours support line and an email response said they would get back to me within 24 hours.
Anyway, it wasn't hard to figure out, except I learned the hard way the uprights won't fit unless they go on first, so I had to take it all apart and start over.
TL;DR, Seems like a good product, but for what I paid I expected better customer support.

Titan's notorious for shaky customer service. Alan Thrall has a rant about them on YouTube.

They are fine for powerlifting too. I have a rogue 2x3 and it's been fine.
3x3 should be sturdier.

A good stand will be fine unless you're doing heavy pin work. You can just use blocks for that, and blocks are generally better anyways.
I have a locally made 3 by 3 and I rerack 500 plus deadlifts with no issue.

Well, you make me feel like a sissy.
I should go over to the OT, where I'm a multimillionaire and deadlift 1,500.

Lol I probably couldn't do half that right now. CNS is not primed

Welp, they answered my email and sent me a manual, two weeks after I figured out how to put it together myself

That sounds a lot like the customer service Alan Thrall was angry about. He got a part late, then the same part like 4x in a row.

my Titan power rack came with no manual and jacked up botls that it took me using a socket wrench on one side and a regular wrench pulling the other way to get the shite secure
my adjustable bench from Titan came with a part that was built backwards to raise and lower the bench. They sent a replacement in a couple day
im done buying their products when I move and expand my gym ill stick to Rogue or Rep.

I’m wary of buying a titan rack but very happy with their wall mounted pull up bar. Seems identical to p-4 from rogue for less than 1/2 the price. Construction is flawless from what I can tell. It is huge though.
