Five stations in one footprint, with two connectable 280lb stacks, sold on a US store that prices in dollars rather than the UK site most buyers land on first.
The MRX 9.0 is Primal Strength's Personal Series answer to the home gym that would otherwise need four machines. One frame carries a half power rack, a dual adjustable pulley functional trainer with swivel arms, a Smith machine, a lat pulldown and low cable row, and a vertical leg press with a Smith leg press footplate. Two rear weight stacks connect for more resistance on the pulldown and row.
Published capacities are the numbers to plan around: 661 lbs on the J-hooks and on the safety catchers, 550 lbs on the Smith machine, 440 lbs on the pull-up frame, and a 45 lb unloaded Smith bar. The frame is heavy-duty steel with metal stack shrouds and a double layer black powder coat, and the attachment list is long enough that most buyers will not be shopping accessories immediately: bullhorns, hip thrust attachment, barbell holder, storage board and hooks, cable handles, a close and mid grip max handle, straight and EZ bars, a tricep rope and a landmine.
The practical constraints are size and weight. Primal publishes the product size as 185 x 207 x 230 cm without labelling which figure is which, and the ship weight is 1,455 lbs, which puts this on freight rather than a parcel carrier. It is delivered by FedEx Freight in a typical 10 to 14 business days after 2 to 3 days of processing, with in-home delivery, unpacking and light assembly available for an added fee, and installation quoted separately as a two-person service.
Buy it on the right store. The brand's main site is the UK one and prices in pounds; the US store is a separate Shopify storefront operated by Echelon Fitness Multimedia, and it is the one that prices this rack at $7,999 and ships domestically.
A home or studio buyer replacing several machines with one frame, who has the ceiling height and floor for a 230cm-tall rack and can accept freight delivery.
You need the required ceiling height published before ordering, you are in Alaska, Hawaii or Puerto Rico, or you want a rack whose warranty and return terms read the same on every page of the store.

Primal Strength Multi Rack System MRX 9.0 - buyer FAQ
What stations does the Primal Strength MRX 9.0 include?
Five in one frame: a half power rack, a dual adjustable pulley functional trainer with swivel arms, a Smith machine, a lat pulldown and low cable row, and a vertical leg press with a Smith leg press footplate. Two rear weight stacks can be connected for more resistance on the pulldown and row, and the attachment list runs to a dozen included items.
How much weight can the MRX 9.0 hold?
Primal publishes four capacities: 661 lbs on the J-hooks, 661 lbs on the safety catchers, 550 lbs on the Smith machine and 440 lbs on the pull-up frame. The Smith bar weighs 45 lbs unloaded. The rack itself is 659 kg net and ships at 1,455 lbs, so it is freight delivery rather than a parcel carrier.
Which Primal Strength site should a US buyer use?
us.primalstrength.com. The www.primalstrength.com site most search results point at is the UK store and prices in GBP. The US storefront is a separate Shopify store operated by Echelon Fitness Multimedia LLC of Chattanooga, Tennessee, it prices this rack at $7,999, and it ships within the United States, excluding Alaska, Hawaii and PO boxes.
How big is the MRX 9.0 and what ceiling does it need?
Primal publishes the product size as 185 x 207 x 230 cm and does not label which figure is width, depth or height. At 230 cm, or just over 7 feet 6 inches on the largest dimension, ceiling height is the constraint to check first. The brand does not publish a required ceiling height, so measure before ordering.

The MRX 7.0 is $5,999 with two 220 lbs functional trainer stacks on a published 2:1 ratio and a narrower 136 cm figure, at 450 kg net against 659 kg. Both were checked September 22, 2026.
