I have the Powerline PPR200X. It's not bolted down. This isn't a problem for anything except re-racking squats really aggressively, and even then it's never actually been a problem. But for paranoia, I have these in the lowest holes on the back with some 45's on there. That keeps it still. I actually like that I don't have to bolt it down. When I'm doing really big garage projects, I can just move the rack into the corner and give myself the extra room.
This rack isn't perfect. The hole spacing is a little wide. The paint scrapes off the sabres after you pull them and and insert them over and over. The knurling on the pullup bar is stupidly aggressive. But it's a good rack and I doubt I'll replace it for a very long time.
Honestly, I'm probably no the right person to ask. This is my first power rack.
My opinion as a first time buyer? No regrets. I see all the other power racks out there from the $1000 ones with the cable setups to the $150 wood DIY setups. This rack is perfect for starting out with 5x5. I am not doing any auxillary exercises (as recommended for beginners in the 5x5 routine) so I don't need any of that stuff. The first set of aux moves I plan to add are leg raises and chin-ups which can both be easily done with this rack without purchasing anything else.
The only thing I suggest is you buy some better j-hooks. I just recently bought these and I love them. I also plan to add some of these plate holders at some point too. Any attachment that fits a 2"x2" power rack with 1" holes with fit these. I've also see some previous sales on the rack itself where they go for sub$200. You just can't beat it if you are't going to out-weight it.
