Rogue Monster Wall Mount Lat Pulldown & Low Row Trainer

From ordering, shipping, assembly, and use the Rogue Monster Rhino Trainer has exceeded all expectations. This is the main attraction in my garage gym and I am so impressed with the build quality and versatility of this piece of equipment. A few concerns I had going into this purchase have been non-issues and I am very relieved about that...no buyers remorse at all and I'd like to share a few notes: I was worried with the rhino platform that I would not be able to get a bench in the right position to incline and decline bench press inside the rack. This has not been a problem for me, I can bench at all angles I have tried so far using j-cups or monolifts and by pushing the bench all the way up the edge of the platform. It's not needed, but sometimes I do switch it up and bench off the front uprights. I was worried about having full range of motion with the cables/trolleys. The bolts on the top and bottom of the uprights do take away some room for the trolleys to go all the way up or down, but I am 5'7"ish and I get full range of motion and extension for bicep exercises from the bottom using a multitude of attachments. My rack is 100" so absolutely no issue with range of motion from the top, but I feel like a 90" rack would also be fine. I was also worried about having to manually load weight plates on the rhino horn when doing lat pulldowns or using the lower lat attachment, as the design of this trainer does not use the indy weight stacks for those exercises. I have no issues with it at all and actually love loading the weights up. The adjustments are easy between sets and the rhino is so smooth. Some might prefer the connivence of just moving the pin on the weight stack(s) but the rhino integration has worked very well for me. Shipping was smooth, everything arrived ahead of schedule, assembly was not as bad as I expected. I used a second person to help secure the top crossmembers, other than that it was a completely solo assembly. I used a combination of the online videos on my laptop and the instruction manual. WARNING - open all boxes first and find the actual thick instruction book for the Rhino Trainer (mine was in the box with the diamond tread plates for the rhino platform) as this is the actual book you need, not the indy and not the FM-6 instruction booklet. I was missing one pin, rogue rushed a replacement to me for free, easy peasy. The shrouds sucked to get into position! They felt like they were cut just a little too long on the bottom to account for the rhino platform, but with some force and almost losing the tip of a finger (long story) they are secure and stable now. Be careful with those shrouds if they don't initially fit. All parts are of the highest quality, the finished product is a joy to use everyday, and the amount of accessories and configurations you can come up with using this trainer is insane. The cables are the smoothest I have ever used.

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.

Fantastic product. The cables are the smoothest that I have used. We drove to Rogue to try in person and ordered the moment we got home.

Bottom line: Solid build, great rack, and excellent customer service. After months of research and ad bombardment from every home gym maker on the planet I decided to go with Rogue. Turns out I could have just asked anyone else. If you didn't know like me, Rogue is the gold standard. I'm very happy with my purchase. This thing is smooth, solid, and built in the USA. It was also delivered several weeks earlier than I expected which was nice. I'll add a few thoughts for anyone interested. I went with the 80" height to fit in a small basement area. I didn't want to take up garage space and I figured I would use it much more often with it being in the house. The 90" would probably be scraping my ceiling or close and I didn't want to lose the ability to do pull-ups. That being said, the extra 10" would have been nice if it was a possibility. Plus you gain the option of adding color to the trainer. I think the standard black looks pretty sweet though. Because of the pull-up bar the trolleys don't go all the way to the top so doing exercises like a tricep pushdown the starting point for the exercise is too low. So, I have to do the exercise from my knees. Just something to consider when choosing height. Overall, I would still choose the 80" in the space I have over a 90" in the garage. Assembly wasn't too bad. I was able to build it solo. I had my MacBook out with the pdf instructions, video, and the 3d image from the main order page. Terry from customer service was super helpful and responsive. Easy to reach anyone over the phone or by email. The color of the bench I ordered was wrong and they fixed it immediately without any hassle. I had to abort the bottom cable guard assembly because it just didn't fit right, but that really wasn't a big deal. I did not order the shroud assembly and I don't regret that. Make sure you assemble it right where you want it because this thing is super heavy. No need to bolt it to the floor I think. I didn't want to pay separate shipping fees so I ordered multiple barbells and accessories with the order. I'm very happy with everything and I've been down there lifting almost every day. If this thing adds even one month to my longevity or ability to work then it's paid for itself. I highly recommend.

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!

Long over due review. Beast of a rig! Purchased this 6-post Indy Functional Trainer with dual weight stacks and a drop-in Rhino Belt Squat a few months ago. Best purchase ever! It has taken me and my family’s fitness journey to a whole new level! And, at the comfort of our home too. Can’t beat that luxury! Thanks, Rogue!!

This thing is the definition of quality (and luxury). Super smooth pulleys, stable, overbuilt, attention to detail in all finishes. This is Rogue at its best. Assembly is an undertaking. Be prepared to spend at least 2 days getting this together. A second person is definitely required for most of the assembly, though I was able to work around the instructions in a way that minimized my need for help from my neighbor. Rogue customer service was great. One part arrived damaged by a forklift. They helped me get the right part relatively quickly.

Love it. Get excited to workout each time. Everything was phenomenal quality. Very sturdy and love the bright blue color. Instructions were pretty clear and they made it as easy as possible to install.
