Help Choosing a Power Rack

[PowerFe2479]

Hello all I am upgrading to a home gym since I am not able to make it to the gym at anytime anymore. Anyhow I have the weights, I decided on Ironmaster dumbbells and just bought an adjustable and flat bench. Pretty much my set up is complete except for a power rack. My basement is 80 inches in height and after much research I have narrowed it down to these two racks. The TDS Sumo Rack and the TDS Titan Power Cage. The TDS is being sold locally for 329 and I can probably go pick it up however the Titan Power Cage just looks so much more sturdy and well built than the Sumo Rack. Will this make a difference or should I spend the extra 200 and get the power cage?

There is nothing wrong with an open top rack. The rear crossmember on the rack in the top picture may get in the users way. See how the bottom picture has the crossmember set back, a better design IMO.

That is also what I noticed when comparing the two guess it would be a pain in the ass to throw my bench in there and only have it be parallell to the J hooks. Would the sumo rack be unstable at any point it looks like it would do everything the other would do but I am just not sure about it yet
