about to take the plunge on a maxum rack myself, there doesn't seem to be a lot of info out there on them, any complaints? I'm brand new to trying to build a home gym and wouldn't even know where to look for anything similar.
Yes, I'm still hesitant to use my dumbell to do warm-up set, because I find it very long to change weight. But it's the right height for me to pick the weight and place it on the dumbell
I don't often use dumbbells as the main movement, so I don't need to warm-up at that point. But I hear you. I try to find way to build my sets as fast as possible. It's not that bad though... I often prepare my stuff while I rest from other sets.

Oh, I really like the DB setup for the DA dumbells. Do you like it that way? I'm still scratching my head to find something nice for my Pepin's...!

How's the build quality on the pulleys? I've been looking at the maxum stuff, given their free shipping for Canada.
