UPDATE:
Bought the BodySolid SFID325 on EBay for $349 shipped. Someone had 3 for sale. Other than that, they go for $389 or $399 shipped. Also bought the Powertech WB-PR11 rack. Too many people at the bodybuidling.com forums seemed to say it was a good rack for the price point. One of the favorites over there for the price point. It wasn't a selling point for me but it does come with dip handles granted the weight rating is nopt huge on them. I think I got that for $479 shipped.

I'll post rational later.

ORIGINAL POST ...
Curious as to what people have and what their likes/dislikes are.

I'm looking into getting one soon. I've researched them to death but none are my dream rack.

FWIW:
I am looking at this for a bench:
BodySolid SFID325: http://bodysolid.com/Commercial/item.cfm?id=4295

And one of these for the rack:
Bodycraft F430: http://www.bodycraft.com/product.php?p_name=F430
Powertec WB-PR11: http://www.powertecfitness.com/p-31-workbench-power-rack-wb-pr11.aspx

My worry is the lower bar that crosses along the back. it just seems like it would get into the way of my feet and/or bench.

My gym uses Elite FTS benches and racks. They give me a boner.

I need to check what my gym uses. There's just 1 true power rack, but it seems pretty awesome, altho not much to compare to.

Has chin/pull/neutral grips up top, and has that nice spot to slide in the 1 edge of a BB to do TBar rows with. Must look at markings tomorrow. I need to build a shed and sell cocaine to fund the equipment.

UPDATE 1:
Got the BodySolid SFID325 and put it together. No rack yet as it is back ordered. This thing makes my old bench seem like it was made out of plastic. Things immediately noticeable. The new bench is heaveier and made out of much thicker steel. It is much more stable. The padding is more firm which should help with bench presses.

So far, very happy with this purchase.
