I bought this rack over a month ago and feel that it is a solid home-gym choice but there are some downsides. I have been working out for over 20 years in multiple gyms across the globe, and this thing epitomizes what is needed for a great workout. Bottom line up front for those that are wondering if they can pull this off: My basement ceiling height is at 93.75 inches from my 3/4" horse stall mats (94.5" from carpet), and I was able to assemble with no issues (the only close fit was the was my last weight stack and pulley that has to slide over the bar stocks...i had to slide it across my ceiling and thought I would punch a hole but didn't). Speaking of carpet, I have not seen many discussions on whether you can put horse stall mats on carpet but let me assure you that you can. I have done it in 3 different builds, and you should be good if you distribute weight evenly across different mats. You can certainly build it by yourself with proper mitigations (i.e. assemble out of order and leaning stuff on braces), but there will be two or three areas where you will need someone else to hold something or put a bolt in for sure! The height of your gym will depend on your available space, but do yourself a favor, DON'T go with an 80" rack unless you absolutely need to. The taller rack is the way to go! Below is the good and bad. The good: It is built like a tank! The steel is solid, the bolts are solid, the accessories are solid! There is not another system I have used at home that matches the build. The pulley systems are like butter, and the cage holds up very well against the constant abuse I put it through every day. The bad: 1. Rogue needs to do better at instructions. I've seen better instructions from a temu product written by someone that doesn't speak English. There are several points in the instructions that mislead or DO NOT direct you to pay attention to a specific placement of a part. The video they have is also useless since it goes quickly with bad background music vs step by step instruction. 2. Rogue's choice of hardware is amazing as stated above, but if you don't have the tools in your garage to use a ratchet, you will be stuck using their wrenches cut out on a waterjet out of steel...and believe me, I have every tool in my garage except for sizes of bolts that are used in major steel building construction! Hand jamming all of these bolts was bad! 3. Despite their ability to survive a nuclear blast, the pully arms trolleys are a terrible design and choice! They are super heavy to move up and down for my wife and daughter and will pinch your fingers if you have them in the wrong spot due to the "two" pull systems to unlock. You need two hands to move it! 4. The accessories are way over the top in weight! The pull up bar is heavy and can fall on your head if there is no weight on the weight stacks. Why design it to be that way? 5. There are several areas where these huge bolts are bolting down these massive beams...then there are times when they use these wimpy bolts that are 70% smaller than the hole and are just attaching by the grace of God. I don't understand it from a safety perspective! 6. The weight stack bars are loose at the top of the gym and not sure why, but I guess it saves money not having to attach another bolt to secure everything at the top! 7. Rogue not adding other accessories for the price is a travesty. I don't need them since I own them, but for those that are barely starting their home gym, this will put you in a pinch to buy more stuff. 8. I added several things to my build thinking it would be ideal, but here are my deletions if I could do it again...I would delete the lat bar, low pull handle, the safety spotter arms, and the extra weight stack (seriously, it is a ton of weight that you may or may not need). The spotter arms are heavy and are an overkill! The low pull handle is an overkill! The lat bar is too heavy and a safety hazard! 9. The total time I spent putting this thing together is my number one, but I added at the end to emphasize it! I did it solo and had to maneuver certain parts and skip steps and come back to them due to lower ceiling heights. It took me 2 weeks! However, I was not working on it every day and was not working on it for more than an hour after work. I spent two straight days where I pulled 4 hours of assembly time, but that was the longest time I did in one day. I am going to hate disassembly when I move and may just throw it into the home's prices! If I could do it again, I would ask my builder to build my basement height to at least 100"! Seriously though, taller ceilings give you more options when building a home gym. I was going to try a Rep rack since I preferred easier trolley systems but did not want to settle for an 80" rack since their next rack is 93". If you have space then go for a system that gives you the best bang for your buck since Rogue systems are very, very, very pricey! I had a REP system in my cart and added a bench, plates, bars and other accessories for under the price of a Rogue rack. If you don't need the bulkiness of this system, and are just wanting a home gym pump, then don't overdo it on costs and go with a cheaper rack. Overall, I still believe the Rogue rack is the best option for anyone that is seriously going to use and abuse your setup. I have been using Rogue products for years, but don't recommend it to colleagues and friends due to the higher prices. I also don't like that they don't offer military discounts and "claim" it's because they sell to mostly military. I highly doubt that they sell their stuff to mostly military due to two reasons, I have been to multiple base gyms and they can't afford to outfit gyms in Rogue so there is barely any Rogue stuff, and two, the military makes up 9% of our US population, and would be hard to keep the lights on just selling to that 9% (not to mention of that 9%, over 3/4 of them are junior members that can barely afford groceries). But the other reason that I don't go around telling people that I have Rogue is kind of the same thing someone wouldn't go around saying they drive a Porshe or own a million dollar home...you are at the towards the top of the product lines for home gym costs (not including people that can afford every piece of equipment), but I do not like to brag that I own a Rogue. That is what Rogue represents when it shouldn’t be. Yes, I own and love my Rogue, but many of my fellow cross-fitters, weightlifters and co-workers don't have the cash for a Rogue, and I don't want to offend them in any way. Again, despite all of that, I still think this rack is solid and would probably buy again with some changes in my order. I highly recommend this rack to those that are willing to work out hardcore, and have the money to spend, otherwise, there are better options at a cheaper cost.

Took about 2 days to put together and you will need a 2-man team. You can build a small home with all the boxes it comes in so be prepared to fill up your garage. Overall, the product is very nice and looking forward to using it.

Love the Twin Functional Trainer. The 100"/30" option was the way to go for someone that is 6'4". Very sturdy and was fairly easy to put together, took me about 9 hours by myself. I did have the wife help me hold the uprights when connecting the two sides.

It doesn’t get any better. I’ve had mine for 9 months and use it religiously. Very well built and heavy duty. Was torn between the Rogue FM-6 and REP. So glad I went with the Rouge. Seen the REP first hand after I bought the Rouge and the REP doesn’t even compare.

I absolutely love the Rogue Fm-6 Twin Functional Trainer Monster Series. This setup completely transformed my space into a high-performance garage gym, and the quality is exactly what we expected from Rogue, MADE IN THE USA! The functional trainer is rock solid, smooth and built for a lifetime. The assembly took me about three days to build, and I did it entirely by myself. It's definitely a serious build, and every step was worth it once everything came together. The structure is incredibly stable, and the dual adjustable pulleys give me a multitude of exercise options. Best investment and highly recommend!

The rack seems awesome; however, it has been an absolute pain to put together. The quality check may have been lacking with this rack. Shrouds not lining up, sticker on the cast iron way off, and items arriving damaged, to name a few. Which is a bummer given the price.

We purchased this and it seems like it'll be great once we can use it.. However, the assembly is a massive undertaking. We had 4 people and couldn't get it done in 4+ hours. The instructions are a little tricky to follow as there are some pieces that are add-ons/not included that are in the instructions, so it becomes confusing when you are looking for a certain part and it's not there. I can't yet attest to how it works because we are still working on the set up.

Very happy with my FM-6 twin stack!
