1. Sturdiness and DurabilityThe Cap Barbell Dumbbell weight rack lives up to its promise of being sturdy. As someone who values safety during workouts, I appreciate the solid construction.

The “Distance Between Hooks” QuirkNow, let’s address the elephant in the room—the distance between hooks. While the stand accommodates various dumbbell sizes, I share your concern. Sometimes, when placing the dumbbells back, I’ve had a close call with my fingers. It’s not a deal-breaker, though. A gentle reminder to be cautious while re-racking the weights does the trick.5. Price Point and QualityConsidering the affordable price, this rack delivers excellent value. Sure, there’s room for improvement, but it’s a minor trade-off. The built quality compensates for any minor inconveniences. Plus, it’s a small price to pay for keeping my dumbbells organized and within arm’s reach.6. Final VerdictIn summary, CAP Barbell dumbbell rack is a reliable companion for your strength training sessions. Whether you’re a seasoned lifter or a beginner, it ticks most boxes: stability, aesthetics, and functionality. Just remember to mind those fingers during re-racking!Disclaimer: This review reflects my personal experience, and individual preferences may vary.

This thing was a bit of a pain to assemble. Not because it was difficult or confusing, it was just annoying. But you only have to assemble it once. After it’s put together, this rack is a beast and it looks really nice too. I went with the blue one and it holds my dumbbells with no issues or wobbling. I have 2x 15, 20, 25 and 30 pound dumbbells and it supports them no problem. The only complaint is minor - when you’re picking them up or putting them back, the width of the space for your hand and the bar/grip on the dumbbell is kinda tight. It’s a great value for the price, is sturdy and you don’t have to worry about the weight capacity unless you’re trying to load it down with multiple 50+ pound dumbbells.

I bought this rack so that my dumbbells would take up less horizontal space. It has the perfect number of slots for my 5-25lb set of dumbbells.Having a ratchet set made it easier to put together. There were some openings that seemed slightly off, so I had to really crank on my ratchet to force it into the right position. I might've been able to solve this by loosening all of the bolts and then slowly re-tightening them bit by bit, but I didn't feel like going to that effort since I had the right tools for the job. It might be a bit more of a struggle to put together if you don't have your own tools.After building it, it looks great, is solid, and seems to be made of good, sturdy metal.The one part about it that bothers me is how close together the two sides of the cradles are. When you are holding a dumbbell in one hand and try to place the dumbbell into one of the cradles, the metal pieces are too narrow to simply guide it down all the way without pinching your hand under the weight of the dumbbell. So it's often pretty awkward to return dumbbells to their cradle. To fix this, the weight rack would have to be more bulky, though, and surely more expensive, so I'm not too bothered given how inexpensive it was. Anything much heavier than the 25lb dumbbells that I have in the rack might start to be a real problem, but I think it's a great, cheap option for lighter dumbbells that aren't difficult for you to move around.

Love this rack it is a small footprint easy to assemble and very sturdy, made from metal and rubber that the weights sit on, perfect to hold my 10,15-,20-,25- and 30-pound dumbbell sets. Please NOTE: The dumbbells I use are the same brand as the stand made by CAP.

The rack was fairly easy to put together! It holds my dumbbells well, and feels very well made. The rack does not take much space up in the room, it's easy to tuck into a corner or between two other objects. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a quality rack that doesn't take much room or effort to construct.

Excellent value, material, and quality. Make sure you don’t put the sides together inside versus outside. Easier to put together with two people or one person with two adjustable wrenches for torque. Doesn’t take up too much floor space.

This rack allows me to get my various dumbbells out of the way. It can hold up to five pairs of dumbbells, which is adequate for my needs.The rack needs some assembly, but this is simple and easy. Once assembled, it is stable and solid. There's no play between the parts, and it easily holds the weights I put on it. The weight capacity is said to be 200 lbs. That is enough for my needs, as I am not a heavy lifter. Someone who lifts heavy weights might find this a limitation.This rack fits into a small corner out of the way. I can readily get the dumbbells I need, and rack them when I'm done. This is a great improvement over having these dumbbells lying around where they get in the way.All in all this rack is an effective way to get the dumbbells out of the way while keeping them readily accessible when I need them. I would buy again, and I would recommend.
