1 out of 5 stars Are you kidding me?   October 8, 2005

The item came with the wrong screws and nuts. I had to wait for the correct ones but they never did send me the right ones. Right now I had to find the right screws because if you follow the instructions, the screws and nuts that connect the bars are oddly loose. What a piece of crap.


2 out of 5 stars Everlast? Probably won't be ever lasting.   November 10, 2005

CONS:
1. Incorrect hardware: Like other reviewers, the nuts and bolts do not seem to be the best.
2. Harms surface. One side that holds on to other side of the wall has a very abrasive surface which will mar any paint/finish. This material was probably chosen to prevent slippage, however rubber might've worked as well.

PROS:
1. Cheaper than others.

CONCLUSION:
For the price it's okay, but I don't think it's going to last 2+ years of daily use. Very annoying was the hardware provided which doesn't seem to match the description in the user manual.



3 out of 5 stars Not for six-inch interior framing   March 13, 2006

This seems to be a fine product. However, our house was built with six inch studs (instead of the usual four inch studs). This means the door frames are wider, and this product does not work with these dimensions.

I used this product successfully as a chin-up bar (palms facing me). When I turned my grip away to do pull-ups, the bar slipped while I was at the top of my pull. I fell and got a few bumps and bruises. This happened twice (shame on me). I did put some cushioning material on the bar that goes over the frame so as to protect the wall from damage. Be careful how you use it. I have decided not to use mine anymore until I find a way to attach it more securely.

Basically, the problem with this unit is that you need the right doorframe and you have to be the right height as a person... Although the width of my doorframe was fine, the width of my walls were actually thin... So, what happens is that all that's holding you up is a 1/8 of an inch of wood, and if you that slips, down you go... Also, it creates considerable stress on the wall, and the paint started to crack after 6 pullups.. For me, in many ways, this product is an accident waiting to happen...

If your walls are 8 to 9 inches thick, your door frame very strong and you are average height (no taller than 5'10"), then this could possibly work for you... I'm 6'5" and between all the other factors, this did not work for me at all, as a result, I returned it... It's an idea that's almost there, but not quite there yet...
