The cage would prob be fine (as long as you are well within the weight limit). I bought a fitness reality 1.5k lb limit squat rack for 5x the price, and it is great BUT the. Lat pulldown system is god awful. Seems like your an avid lifter, so I would suggest doing research and investing in a high quality cage + pulley system. If u have the space u can go with this cage and then buy a separate pulley and pulldown system. Rogue and titan are both brands people love. Glucks gym and garage gym reviews on yt r excellent sources.
I use cheap adjustable dumbells (zero gravity is the brand). I would recommend ironmaster v2 adjustable bench system + dumbbells if u use them frequently. Adjustable and can drop them + system has spotting attachments etc for the bench. I hope this helps. In general for fitness stuff u get what u pay for. Probably some decent new years sales incoming
1. Buy a decent rack, bench, and setup. For home use, you can do it for under $1,000.
2. I have this setup (rack and pulldown/row attachment). I am happy with it. I did a tweak when I put it together and added washers with every bolt. I think it makes it more stable. I suggest that for any rack. I am 200 lbs and this is very stable even when doing weighted pull-ups.
3. This rack is an odd size. It has a 2.35" frame. Attachments are not as available as they are for 2", 2.5", and 3" uprights.
4. Buy a rack that has either 2.5", 3", or 2x3" uprights. Obviously, they will be heavier duty than 2".
5. If you want to do other cable movements (cable flyes, reverse flyes, chest press, etc.), consider another rack with a two-cable system. I bought an add on attachment that works but would be nice to have a system with two cables built in.
6. There are several options on Amazon in the $500-$700 range that have dual-cable, lots of attachments, etc. Some include a bench (a little north of $700). This is just one: https://www.amazon.com/Sportsroya...0C

Not Slick. It has been this price for a while.

For the price it's amazing. If youre doing any real power lifting it has to be bolted down or secured in some way. It will work unbolted obviously but it starts to wobble too much for my liking.
I haven't put too much weight on the cable system (maybe 180 max) but it seems to handle it fine. A little flexing but nothing crazy. The cable has no dampening or stability built in so if you're going for explosive type lifting then you will bounce the around which feels super unsafe so I only do slow and controlled with that.
*IT comes in several boxes. the boxes are NOT made for the kind of weight they pack so lay everything out before you built. I had random bits missing but don't recall getting replacements being that hard.
Seems like a good price for the lat pull down.
