First, I just want to say that I did have an issue with my order that the seller I received this from made right in a very timely manner and they were friendly. With that said, the tower itself is great. It was easy to put together and came with all required components and tools. I was just originally just looking for something sturdy for my barbell to do bench presses with. This checked that box and then some. The fact that I can use it to bench press, and then switch over to squats, leg raises, pull/chin ups, dips... It's just great. The tower is sturdy, and like i mentioned above, has a nice variety of exercises. I would say for the price I paid, the value is incredible. I would also say that the my least favorite part of the tower is the grips. They aren't very soft and padded, but they certainly feel durable enough. No dings on my score for this because it's factored into the price point and there really isn't anything wrong with the grips . I'm not asking for better grips, just noting that I think it's the weakest point of the tower. With all that said, I love it! Read more
Overall great piece of equipment! I received a pretty damaged package from shipping and was concerned about opening it and was thinking of returning it, but figured I'd give it a go. It was internally packed well so there was no damage, however the very first step, I ran into an issue with the first bolt I needed wasn't finished, not sure how that got through quality but easily replaced it from the hardware store. After putting it together, it appears mostly sturdy (I'm about 160lbs, I'd say if you're over 200, you'd want to weigh this down, could become unsturdy). There's probably a better way to assemble this then the instructions put it, mainly around tightening everything so that the unit stands completely flat, as mine has a slight wobble likely when I tightened all the bottom bolts as I was building it instead of waiting till the end to tighten (i stopped fully tightening them after I got the first like 10 base bolts tight, probably should've went back and loosened them but was impatient). Customer support gave me a credit for the inconvenience with the bolt mishap and were very responsive which warrants a 5 star review. Overall the versatility and sturdiness make this worth the extra money compared to some of the cheaper towers out there! Read more
Pros Over all this is a good rack. With multifuctions. Pretty sturdy for not needing to be bolted in. I wanted something i could use for basic workouts, As i don't lift heavy and am just starting out. It was hard to find one that had benching/squatrack, pullup bar and ab workouts options all in one. This has all of this at good price. You can also use for other workouts if you know what you are doing. I wanted something for my garage so obviously i didn't want it to take up much room. It was fairly easy to assemble on my own. Overall good for someone who is just starting to moderate lifter. Con The bad part is how narrow it is. I am 5'1" and i felt it was quite narrow when trying to squat. When doing pullups i do have to remove the ab cushion in order to not feel so crowded. The last thing is the pull up bar handles (the ones that come out forwards) themselves feel a bit short for me. Again this has to do with how narrow it is. If the post would be a bit wider maybe it wouldn't be so bad. Read more
bought for my daughter's house - easy assembly & surprisingly sturdy. The easy adjustments work great with her bench to allow her to expand her gym over time. Read more
This unit arrived in two boxes very well packaged all the pieces had a beautiful finish, after assembly. It is one of the most stable power towers. I have ever messed with if I had to state any complaint at all, it would be that the hard plastic grips are horrible. I replaced mine with foam bicycle grips Read more
It is simple to assemble lightweight. I don’t feel like it would tip over considering it’s not anchored or attached to anything. The pull up bar is very wide set and with the design there’s no way to move your hand position the middle section where you would do the dips is also a little too wide set for me, and the handles are not welded straight so they bow outward ever so slightly even after switching them it’s still pushing my hands outward instead of inward and closer to my body. The pads are very basic. I feel if you were a heavier person this would break down very rquickly , they’re just a cheap synthetic material stapled to cheap backboard maybe a light water or plastic inside. Packaging caused the back cushion to be dented. Definitely not something that matters for the use but aesthetically looks funny with a big dent in the center of it. Did come with a bench press bar holder, which I didn’t realize when I was buying it so that was a nice surprise. You will not have extra parts so don’t lose any. You have exactly how many you need. But it’s decent for the money I don’t think any of the stuff is designed for smaller people, so we just have to figure it out. I’m 5 to 112 pounds so that’s why these are a little too wide for me.

After searching for the right pull up tower I came across this product. It was a little more expensive than other but worth the price. The fact that you can adjust the arms to different position to do different exercise is a big plus. The tower is very well made easy to assemble and it does not wobble. I weight 195LBS. It came with assembly tools, but I used a rachet wrench making sure not to over tighten the bolts. Follow instruction and take your time. one person can do it. Read more
