This pull up bar is solid. I mounted it on 2x10 board, which I screwed across three studs. That thing isn't going anywhere! The bar holds my weight without the slightest motion (I weigh 180 lbs.). The foam grips are very comfortable on the hands. Especially as inexpensive as the bar was, I'm very impressed. Read more
Bought this gift for my husband for Christmas and he loves it. Great quality, the sponge on the handle makes it easy to grip but u still need a gym gloves to protect hands. Easy to put to together. There’s 3 different part to hold to work different areas of the body and helps with body fitness. Read more
This thing is awesome! I'm 6' and have always had issues with door mounted pull up bars, I've never been able to do a true hanging pull up and never dead hang. I was able to mount this just tall enough I can touch it with my finger tips and when I wrap my hands it pulls my feet off the floor! I never had any issues with installation, The reviews talking about the lag bolts had me thinking they must not have pre drilled the holes like you're supposed to. I also didn't install the lag bolts with a drill I used a ratchet . They went in fine and tightened well. I've used it multiple times already and am in love Read more
I've been using this pull up bar for a few weeks now, and overall, I'm quite happy with it. The installation was straightforward, and the bar itself is very sturdy and can hold up to 300 pounds of weight. The grips on the bar are comfortable and provide a secure grip for chin ups, pull ups, and other exercises. However, I did experience an issue with the foam grip upon arrival. While it's not a major issue, it's worth noting that the foam material isn't as durable as I had hoped. Despite this minor issue, I still think this pull up bar is a great value for the price. It's a versatile piece of equipment that allows you to perform a wide range of exercises, and the fact that it can be mounted on a wall makes it very space-efficient. Plus, the sturdiness and durability of the bar itself is impressive for the money. Overall, I would give this product three stars. While I would have preferred more durable foam on the handlebar, it's a minor issue in the grand scheme of things. If you're looking for an affordable, space-efficient, and versatile pull up bar, this Wall Mounted Pull Up Bar/Chin Up Bar is definitely worth considering. Read more
Overall, this is a very solidly built pullup bar, and you won't find a better setup for the price. The assembly instructions are a lacking somewhat as the print is small, and makes it hard to figure out which bolt goes where. However, if you go through and assemble everything "finger tight" it's fairly easy to swap things around if needed. The provided wrenches are what you would expect in anything you have to assemble yourself. Save yourself some frustration, and use a ratchet and end wrench to get everything torqued down. The foam grips are of decent construction, but after a lot of hard use, I can see them being replaced with athletic tape. The back pad, and arm pads are sufficient, but again with lots of hard use, they will likely require some repair. Overall, it's exactly what you need for a price that won't break the bank. The only thing that is not great, is how the system is mounted on the wall itself. The lag screws provided are sturdy, and will hold the bar (and user) to the wall, but I still worried that the weight of the bar (plus me) would eventually cause the supports to fail. The buffers on the bar are heavy duty and don't have a lot of give. They rest against your wall, and will push into the wallboard leaving dents, and if the buffers are not resting on sheetrock backed by a stud, they can push all the way through the wall. In order to address my concerns, I cut two 2x6x8 pressure treated deck boards in half and used lag screws to secure three of the boards crosswise across the wall studs. Using a little bit of trial and error I was able to attach the provided support hooks to the cross beams so that the weight was distributed across the studs and the buffers rested on the cross beams, not the sheetrock. I also took the advice of one of the other reviews and installed a 4x4 foot square piece of plywood to the wall to ensure that the back swing (or forward swing if you're using assistance bands) doesn't push my feet through the drywall. It may be a little more work, but I would rather take the time to install some wood, than to patch drywall. Overall, I spent about 40 dollars at the Big Orange Home Store to get the parts that I needed and spent about 90 minutes total assembling the bar and installing the supports. I am very happy with the end result, and have been using the bar with no issues at all. Read more
