It took a while to get my head around the instructions (tiny type, what I know as washers they call gaskets) but then assembly went smoothly, no problems whatsoever. Quality appears excellent; paint/powder coat, hefty fasteners, and sturdiness can't get any better, in my opinion. Nice big feet on the base in case you want to move it around; easily fits through a standard (American type) door. Keep in mind that this is not for swinging around like a monkey; respect its limitations. Otherwise it's almost perfect and my back feels better already. And, if that isn't enough, it also doubles as a valet stand when not in use! Read more
My husband uses this everyday and the beautiful part, it takes up so little space. It is very durable and has been supporting daily workouts of a 170lb man. He has significantly increased his number of pull-ups and has seen great improvement in his abs for the countless different work outs you can do using this product. We both go to the gym at our apartment complex on a regular basis but surprisingly enough, the community gym does not provide equipment like this Tower Pull Up Bar station. Impeccable value for the price and being that it can fit easily in any apartment, it serves as a reminder and leaves room for no excuses since it can be used from the comfort of your own home. I've included a picture of the equipment in our office (one of two bedrooms in our apartment). Read more
Light weight; durable, doesn't take up much space; you can even easily move it through a doorway fully assembled. It's a great option for the price. I have been using it a lot, and I'm glad I bought it. It works for all of the basic movements, but the design does prevent you from doing a lot of calisthenic movements. There are a just a few drawbacks I've noticed after playing around on it. The bar doesn't go high enough to dead hang without tucking your knees. The two cross beams on the back get in the way often and limit your movement options. It's sturdy, but not stable enough to do anything involving swinging. They should add handles for neutral grip pull-ups and maybe a pushup bar. Read more
I purchased the station two months ago and literally use it every day. I picked this one because it is very basic. So it is very easy to assemble and the pictures on the instruction are helpful. The small parts are sealed in a plastic box and are intact. The maximum height is good for an apartment. For people shorter than 5’6”, you do not need to bend your knees to do pull-ups. It is very light and can be moved around the room, in front of TV or patio door. So it gets a lot of use. This one does not have the armrests for vertical knee raise which is what I preferred because the width usually is too wide based on reviews from other stations. What I do is buy a pair of slings (< $20) and hang them on the bars. It is very neat because the width could be adjusted. The station is light and does not stand 100% still while you do pull-ups, but I would not call it wobble. Instead, I feel quite secure doing the pull-ups, and the station just resonances with my moves, which I really like. I could see many uses of it in the future. My goal is to lower the daily cost to 10¢. Read more
When I looked, my concern was "is it junk"? Will it be stable enough to safely use? I am semi muscular chubby guy who is around 260-270. Yes, I can do dips and pullups at that weight. Lol. Maybe its time for a salad. I moved into a new house last year and still do not have the home gym set up, so when I saw this sub-100, I took a look and read the reviews. Be nice to be able to bang out some dips and pullups at will. Packing was good, and all fasteners were present. It was pretty heavy, in perfect shape. Took me about 15 minutes to put together by myself. Pretty sturdy and nice. Not bad. Not too heavy, either. We are not talking 1/4 tube steel here. You aren't going to want to do kipping pullups, but if you do pullups or chinups at a controlled clip, this is plenty stable and strong. You can use a resistance band to help dips and pullups on this machine. The lower you adjust the pullup bar, the more stable it is. Dips are very stable. I would NOT recommend for muscleups unless you anchor the device to the floor or use sandbags or such. For what I paid, it is perfect, and I would buy it again, no question. Read more
I was hopeful for the soges Power Tower Pull Up Bar Station but unfortunately it wasn’t that great. I bought this product because it was an affordable option compared to other pull up bars. This pull up bar is a good size, it was easy to build but it’s not sturdy. The product is supposed to not wobble and stay sturdy by it’s own weight but it’s EXTREMELY light, so light my daughter could lift it up without a struggle, so how was this product supposed to be supported by it’s own weight when it’s too light. It still can be used for workout, but with caution to make sure it doesn’t fall while you’re using it. Read more
