Hi Ronald.
The choice is quite large. I used the Powerline PPR200x in the last gym that I visited and it suited me fine. For myself, I recently Fitness Reality 810XLT Super Max Power Cage. It’s worth the money. I can recommend you this model. If it’s interested, ready to prepare a review or to answer questions.
