Looking to add a squat rack to my home gym. I am not doing real big weights (probably work up to 300lb squats eventually) so I don't need a commercial quality. I would like one with adjustable safety stops so I can use when benching with a barbell by myself (currently just do dumbell presses but would like to start barbell benching). Anyone have any specific brand/model recommendations?

Thanks!
 
Anyone use this Powerline rack?

Body Solid PPR200X Powerline Power Rack

Also would a 6ft olympic bar work or would I need a 7ft? The width of the rack looks to be 46".
 
Body Solid Power rack is what I use. Excellent!! Saved my a%s when my 7 ft olympic bar snapped in half doing squats with 458 lbs on it!!! (side note - spend the money now for a higher quality Olympic bar with at least an 800lb rating even if you will only use half of that - the one I had was the typical cheapy rated for 300-350 lbs. - I now have the 800 lb bar). :)
 
or a half rack?
