Perfect as a squat rack
I bought it with the intention to use as a squat rack but was a bit nervous about the hight of the cross bar. At the top height with both pins in my head would hit it just( I'm 5'10") but I moved the bar up one notch so the top pin isn't actually connected and now have plenty of room and the rack is just as stable as before.

Slightly too short for >6' tall, well constructed.
My height is 6'1”/6'2"
I have issues hitting my head on the cross member. I had to put the feet on boards to raise it. Especially when racking high bar squats. I slid the bar up so only two pins were anchoring it. It's a bit more wobbly, but haven't had any structural failures at 225-315lbs loaded on barbell.
One downside is the feet tend to angle a bit contributing to the slight wobble.
*If in garage: remember floor gradient and face parallel to garage door. You'll notice the gradient if facing side walls, perpendicular to door, and will also add to slight movement of feet angle upon racking.*
RECOMMEND Y2 for my height.
Someone else said they got away with Y1 over >6ft tall, but I'd say incorrect. I'm using flat soled foootware, but keep in mind if you're using power shoes with a heel. I'm going to purchase some and am curious how it affects head clearance. I may even redesign my platform with runners like tracks for me to rest the rack on.
It's been in my garage in the humid South, no rust.
As far as height concerns in garage... Performing any overhead lifts exceeds Y2 dimensions anyways, with adequate clearance. If you're worried about walking the Y2 height out of your garage door then just disassemble cross bar and load it outside.
Summary, the versatility is great. But I do miss the optional add ons that can be placed on a traditional power rack. The height is not adequate for >6'. However yoke carries and zerchers make up for the benefits of power rack stability.

Phenomenal
I've been using the Y 1 yolk for approximate time of 7 months and I absolutely love it. We've had up to 800lbs on just the side posts for a walk and it has held up extremely well. I use it for atlas stone loads, yolk walk, bench and it has been very impressive across the board. My only gripe with it is that Rogue has sticker branding on the side which has got torn up in about a month of use. If you read this Rogue please laser cut your name on the 2.0 version of the yolks whenever you make them.
Ps: I had the same issue on my monster lite 690 rack.

Versatility at its finest
Wish I had the room for a Y-2, but this Y-1 will get me where I want to go with the addition of the spotter arms. The only think I forgot to take in to account was the footprint with plates stored over the feet. Had to do a little reorganizing. Totally stoked to have a quality yoke, sled, squat/bench rack for a great price

Best Overall Garage Gym Buy
I've had this for 6 months now and I can honestly say it is the most valuable piece of equipment in my garage gym. I am 6'1" and can squat, bench, press with relative stability and then do my strongman Saturday yoke walks.
One word of caution: if you are planning on squatting out of the yoke and have the height to do the Y2, it would be more stable since you do not have to put the cross member higher than the posts.

Awesome!
Great piece of equipment! We threw about 500+ lbs on it right away for Yoke Carry.
