Well Kleva did it again. After having used their original and subsequent versions of the Genesis Jack, I didn't think I'd ever consider getting a full jack due to the weight and size, but Kleva upped the game again Not only is this jack extremely light, it makes lifting even the heaviest of loads a breeze. It has the same great machining and protection as the latest Genesis Jack, but now in a nice convenient full jack form. This jack is also slightly wider than your standard full jacks, which really comes into play when using a deadlift bar with heavy loads. Less wide jacks will let the bar bend with heavier loads where the weights can end up touching the ground, which defeats the purpose of a full jack. Highly recommended if you have the space in your gym.

I absolutely love the design and ease of use. My concern is in regards to long-term durability. I’ve had my jack for about a month and after a week of use some of the interior fasteners on the flanges started to come loose. It was barely noticeable but as I progressed through my warmups and reached working weights it started to lift the bar unevenly and shift noticeably. I emailed the Klevas and they got back to me almost immediately with the recommendation to check all the fasteners. It appears to have solved the issue for the last couple weeks but part of me is paranoid I’ll break my fancy new jack with heavy sets. I don’t want to discourage anyone from purchasing this jack, just make sure you retighten all the bolts when you get it. If the problem persists I’ll just get my blue locktite out and consider rechecking and retightening the jack every once in a while.

Extremely well made. Being light makes this usable with limited gym space, since its easy to put away when not in use.

I already had a "full" Bells of Steel barbell jack, it was good, the KB one is GREAT. A few things I think others have not talked about enough:
1) VERY light so easy to move. Much lighter than any other full barbell jack I have used.
2) Stores much better than others. Having a Garage Gym I don't have a lot of space, the KB jack PRO fits neatly behind my door when not in use. No other Barbell Jack I have seen fits in such a tight area.
3) Works great "backward" I deadlift off the "front" of my plywood and horse stall mat 8' X 8' platform. I set my deadlift jack in front of my platform. It is extremely easy to use even "backward".
TLDR - I Love this barbell jack - well worth the $280 I paid! Thank you KB!

I have the EVO version of the original genesis jack and love it, but once I saw the reviews for the full size jack (from the online reviewers I trust most to give honest, unbiased reviews of home gym equipment), I knew that this is what I needed/wanted for my home gym. The reviewers did not lie. This thing is awesome. It’s stable and near effortless to use. It comes very well-packaged. The quality of craftsmanship is great. They even have the 2 washers pre-assembled on each bolt in the correct orientation—fantastic attention to even the most minute detail. I assembled the jack loosely on the flat gym floor as per the instructions, made sure it wasn’t rotated, and then tightened everything—the Allen wrench and crescent wrench are included. It was very straightforward to assemble and the jack sits perfectly flush with the ground (one negative reviewer complained their jack feet weren’t parallel—sorry bro, user error, your bad). I have 1” horse stall mats with speckles. I keep my gym very clean. The feet of the jack don’t make any marks on my mats.

I love deadlifting. It’s my favorite exercise. I’m mid-40s. I do lots of warm-ups on heavy days and progressively ramp up weight, so lots of plate changes. I occasionally do moderate rep days with drop sets at the end to fatigue every last muscle fiber, so lots of plate changes. My wife and I have deadlift dates. We do vastly different weights, so lots and lots of plate changes. It is so much more pleasant changing plates with the Pro jack. It’s easier, safer and faster. It’s way easier and way faster for my wife to do plate changes. And now we can add/strip plates simultaneously. At the end of the workout, when my back and body are toast, using the Pro jack, I don’t worry about pulling a muscle in my back yanking plates off the bar in our deadlift space that doesn’t have a lot of extra room to either side of the bar and platform. The Pro jack is insanely simple and effortless to use, even easier and safer to use than the single foot genesis jack that was itself already a revolution in plate changing. For a full size jack, it is mindblowingly light to pick up and move around and store, especially given how much weight it is able to jack up. I keep it behind an equipment tower with attachments for my multi-bench.

I deadlift with Rogue HiTemp bumpers which are a tad smaller diameter than standard plates (445mm instead of 450mm) and I do not have any diameter issue with using the Pro Jack—there is a note about plate diameter in the specs, so adding this in in case anyone was wondering.

I couldn’t be happier with the purchase and couldn’t recommend it any more highly if you: like to deadlift, like your back, like to save time and have the space for it. It’s a wonderful piece of equipment to use. Thank you, guys, for designing/making this. I love it.
