  • My Fitness Goal Is: Bigger, better, faster, stronger

18 months later

Let me start with this. The only thing better than their products is their customer service. My order showed up a little banged up on the skid. When I say banged up, I mean there was some holes punched through a few boxes the size of fist (happened during shipping.) First thing I did was snap a few pics of the skid and emailed BoS to give them a heads up before I unboxed anything. They got back to me immediately and took care of everything. I have to hand it to these guys. Customer service is stellar! Its not too often I receive this caliber of service from ANY company. Now, onto the product. I started putting together my home gym about 6 months into covid. Buying whatever I could get my hands on and slowly upgrading. About 18 months ago, I decided it was time to completely revamp the home gym. I have owned a number of racks since the start of covid and researched a bunch more before settling on the BoS Brute. I wanted something that was not only sturdy, but also versatile in it’s assortment of attachments, without the need to sell a kidney to afford them. Price/quality wise, it can't be beat. I even opted to buy the Brute knowing full well it was too tall for my basement ceiling. But that wasn’t going to stop me having on of this bad boy. It's been about 18 months since I got it and I wanted to make sure I took the time to really get to know the rack before writing a full review. To start, they don’t call it the Brute for nothing! Make no mistake folks, this thing is a tank! It made my old rack feel like a jungle-gym for toddlers. Took some time to assemble but mostly due to the fact that I had to measure out the placement and cut the holes in the ceiling to allow me to get the uprights vertical. I made the ceiling holes a little bigger than the posts in case the rack moved a little while using the lever arms but it was not necessary. This think hasn’t moved 1mm since installation. Cons: unbaked loose powder coat everywhere in the bags and boxes. Was a bit messy. No side holes and numbering is pretty far apart at 10 inches making it difficult to line up J-cups, monolifts and spotter arms when moving them around. End to end threaded screws. 4 weight pegs included on each side instead of 5 or 6. Teflon or UHMW sleeves would be nice to avoid scratching up the uprights every time you relocate accessories. That being said, every one of my complaints were addressed with the new hydra series. So I'll probably end up selling the brute and 1 kidney so I can upgrade to the hydra!

Bells of Steel

Hi Haik, Thank you so much for your in depth review of our Brute rack. We are delighted that you have had a positive experience, our customer service was up to snuff, and the product has been sturdy and functions well. We designed the Brute to be, as you said, a tank without breaking the bank. We also have some great accessories coming so stay tuned for that ! As for the cons, we love the feedback and will certainly take all these into note. You are right in saying these were all corrected on our Hydra line! Thank you again for a stellar review and all the best ! Marcus & the BoS team! Ps: We look forward to assisting when It comes time to upgrade to the Hydra 😉
