I am pleased with the quality of this pull-up bar. This is thick steel and really solid. The welding looks professionally done. I didn't expect it to be this good for this price. I mounted this into the studs, through the sheetrock, in my garage with the provided lag screws. Do not use the plastic anchors if you mount it this way. It was easy to install for me, but I have been a carpenter for 20 years. But it should be easy for anyone that has some skill. Overall pleased. If I have a complaint, it would be that the box was busted and this thing came with some scratches in the paint, but it isn't a big deal for me. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to add to their garage gym set-up. I like this versus a free standing rack because you can hang this higher for someone taller, like myself. Read more
I took a chance and installed this directly onto drywall in an interior room without a backboard. The brackets can be separated at any width in order to line them up with studs. I've had this up for a few months with regular use, and there has been no deformation of the drywall. The shipping packaging leaves something to be desired, but this is a great product at a decent price. Highly recommended for your home gym. Read more
This pull-up bar is very well-built – solid, sturdy, and performs exactly as advertised. The frame feels secure and capable of supporting heavy loads. However, the included mounting hardware does not match the quality of the bar. Two of the supplied bolts broke during installation, requiring me to purchase a stronger set from Home Depot. Once installed with proper hardware, the bar works flawlessly. With better quality bolts included, this would easily be a 5-star product. Read more
Solidly made chin up bar that is quite large. I planned to install at home, but decided it was too big for the space I had in mind. My office has a gym and was lacking a good chin up bar, so decided to try it there. I needed to install it in very old brick. Installation took about 1.25 hours on my own using the tools in the picture. It would have gone a little faster with a second set of hands. My package came with a set of screws/bolts and wall anchors, though it wasn’t clear what type of wall surface they were designed for. I decided to buy my own Tapcon screws (3/8” x 3”) which are designed for installation in masonry. These are very substantial screws, so as long as they stay in the wall, they definitely won’t shear in half. That being said, 3/8” size screws were a very tight fit with the predrilled holes in the brackets. I did use the washers that were included in the packet. Aside from the old adage of measure twice, cut once, be careful with running the bar through the holes in the bracket too many times. If you aren’t precise with pulling the bar through the hole, the finish on the bar can be scratched by the edges of the holes. Read more
I almost went with the rogue brand but am SO glad I got this. Can’t get to a conventional gym for a few months so getting the essentials at home and this bar has been a great addition. Easy to install with 2 people. Drilled right into the wall studs with the hardware provided and this thing is sturdy! I’m a female 5’7, 160 and it’s been great so far for strict strength work and conditioning like toes to bar. No complaints! Glad I saved the money and went with this option over the hyped brand name.

Purchased this pull-up bar since it's less than half the price of Rogue (after tax+shipping) and Titan has been out of stock forever. This pull-up bar is just as good as either of them at a great price ($79 when I purchased). Mounted it in my garage on to 2x4's mounted into studs, and it's rock solid. Mounting hardware being included is a nice bonus as well. Would definitely recommend if you don't want to spend too much on Rogue or wait for Titan to come back in stock. Read more
I quickly and easily bolted this to a wall in my garage. It works great and feels like it could handle a ton of weight. I am totally happy with it Read more
Overall, I'm happy with this pull up bar and would purchase again. Deducted 1 star for packaging.. Wasn't packaged well, had some minor scratches in the bar, and it was wrapped with wiring that added additional scratches to the frame. Box was a little beat up, which is typical of UPS/Fedex/USPS - But the plastic bag wrapping didn't do much to protect the components inside. Luckily, none of the hardware was missing. Deducted another star for the bar holes; they weren't aligned on 1 side. I had to bore them out in order for the bar to fit. Didn't take too long, but still had to do it. Read more
