Marcy 6-Peg Weight Plate Tree w/ Wheels

It's really heavy duty, nicely painted, and makes fetching and storing weight plates a breeze. You can store 1" or 2" weight plates by using or not using the 2" heavy duty plastic weight plate sleeve adaptors. There are 6 of them.The 6 weight plate arms are ideal as the set of colored Olympic 2" weight plates I'm going to accumulate come in 6 weights. I'll be getting 2 weight plates each of 10 lbs, 15 lbs, 25 lbs, 35 lbs, 45 lbs, and 55 lbs, so one set of 2 plates at each weight for each arm on the storage rack.Two minor complaints: The washers labeled #17 had a bit of surface rust but since they are zinc coated, I'm not sure where the rust came from. And they accidentally gave me a #17 washer instead of the needed #16 washer, so I was short one #16 washer. I just did that nut & bolt without a washer rather than head out to the hardware store for one washer+.I will help you learn from a mistake I made. I tightened all the nuts & bolts up at the very top of the rack BEFORE I but my 45 lbs Olympic barbell in the barbell holder sleeve so I had to use force getting it in and out to put it up and take it out. I used leverage to force it into alignment to make that easier, but you'd do better to tighten up the top nuts & bolts on the weight plate rack LAST with the 45 lbs Olympic barbell put away in the barbell holder so you can line it up just right for yourself. Otherwise, it was very easy to put together, it took about an hour. I'm thankful I don't need to buy no more weightlifting equipment until next fall when I add the 3 heavier sets of Olympic plates, this equipment adds up.

I purchased this rack from an obviously well known comany in this field because I rightfully thought it will be well made. The metal used was robust. The paint finish is quality. The casters are very heavy duty and facilitates movement of the loaded rack in a relatively easy manner. A positive feature not found in some other weight racks is that you can store both 1" and 2" plates by simply removing the plastic sleeves to expose the smaller diameter metal rods. The rack was very well packaged, no damage or missing parts' and the instructions were clear. Two Allen wrenches were supplied. You do need a pair of adjustable wrenches or metric fixed sized wrenches. A metric socket set would significantly speed the assembly. The rack was a good value for the price point. I hope this review was helpful.

Unit arrived well packaged, easy assembly, great unit for a lighter weight load. Great price and very stable upright, perfect for a 70 yr. Old weight lifter !

The Marcy Olympic Weight Tree is a popular choice for organizing weight plates and keeping a home gym tidy. Here are some points to consider based on pros and cons I’ve experienced:Pros:1. Sturdy Construction: The weight tree is made from solid steel, making it durable and able to support heavy loads of weight plates.2. Efficient Space Saver: It has a compact footprint, which helps to organize plates without taking up too much space in your home gym.3. High Weight Capacity: The tree is designed to handle Olympic-sized weight plates and can typically hold a significant amount of weight. I hung 2 45 lbs, 2 35 lbs, 2 25 lbs and 2 10 lbs bumpers with modifications as the tube diameters were larger than the inner diameter of the bumper holes. I has to use sand paper and sand a few tubes down to fit properly.4. Stability: Many users report that it remains stable and balanced even when loaded unevenly or to its maximum capacity.5. Affordability: Compared to other similar weight storage solutions, it’s priced reasonably and offers good value for the quality.6. Easy to Assemble: Assembly is straightforward. I had it together in about 15 minutes.Cons:1. Limited Storage for Larger Plates: You won’t get 6 Olympic size bumpers to fit on this unit even though 6 posts are included. The two top posts end up being unusable. I did have a set of 2.5 and 5 lbs bumpers that I was able to place there but that left the larger 15 and 55 lbs plates with no place to go.2. No Wheels: It’s not easily portable, and moving it around could be a hassle, especially once loaded with weights. It wasn’t a dealbreaker for me so no points deducted. Something you might consider in your purchase though.3. Tight fit. Hard or impossible to slide umpers on and off without sanding down the tubes. The problem wasn’t uniform and leads me to believe it’s an issue with paint being applied in a non-uniform manner.3. Barbell Storage: No dedicated storage for barbells, which could be a downside if you’re looking for an all-in-one storage solution. Again, no points deducted, just personal preference.Verdict:For a reasonably priced, sturdy, and compact weight tree, the Marcy Olympic Weight Tree is a decent choice. It does what it’s designed to do, kinda.—organize and store weights effectively—and offers good value for those building out a home gym. However, if you're looking for a model with more versatility (such as storing more than four sets of large bumpers, or Barbells, this probably isn’t for you

The build quality is great for under $100. It was easy to assemble. I love having the wheels on it because I can easily move it around the garage to get it out of my way or move it closer to the equipment I’m using. As far as the maximum weight I definitely had more than the recommended 300 pounds and it was just fine. Just make sure to balance the weight. Because it’s vertical it does help save space which is super important to me in my home gym with limited space.

Easy to assemble . My teen son can set it up in 5-10 minutes . It is stable and fits my weight set

My purchase arrived earlier than I expected and I could not be happier. It is extremely well made and like some of the other reviews have stated, the ease of assembly was due to the precise instructions, the plastic wrap on the cardboard containing all the nuts, bolts etc. and a picture for every step of the way. Quality craftsmanship and an excellent price makes this a tremendous addition to my home gym. The bar holder is for olympic weights, so if you have standard size bars, it will be a little loose but, the keeper pin at the top will keep it from falling over.

We were looking for something to put all the Olympic bumper plates we had leaning up on wall on and I couldn’t be happier with how durable it is, howmuch weight it can hold, the spacing between the posts allows any size weight plate to fit any level, and amazingly loaded up with about 400lbs of weight it rolls around the garage fine and stays out when locked.It was also significantly cheaper than other options that didn’t have all the features this one had.

Excellent weight stand for the price. Holds my 300lb olympic weight set. Looks good in my home gym.

The stand works fine. One change I'd make is for it to have locking casters. It will roll in a garage that usually sloped towards the garage door.
