soges Power Tower Pull Up Bar Station, Free Standing Pull Up Rack Dip Station for Home Gym, Height Adjustable Home Strength Training Fitness Workout Equipment

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!

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).

I've had this for about 6 months and use it probably 3-4 times per week primarily for pullups, chinups, dips, and inverted rows. Assembly was pretty straightforward. Instructions were fine and all pieces were included. It's sturdy enough. It can creak and sway a bit when you're on it, but after hundreds of pullups, dips, and rows, it's not any more creaky than it was when first assembled. That said, I'm only about 155lbs, so your mileage may vary. I would say that the width of the pullup bar between the supports is a little narrow, while the outer grips are pretty wide for me. I find that the most comfortable width is just outside the vertical supports. That said, it's not comfortable to hold as is since it's bare metal. I put some tennis overgrip over the bare metal parts (see picture) and it's much better to grip and pull. Same caveat applies for the dip bars, especially since there is no way to widen the dip grip. However, it does allow for various positions from vertical (working tris) to leaning toward horizontal (working pecs). The dip bars are a little high for inverted rows, but it works well enough. Another thing to note is that the pullup bar is not that high. Don't expect to be able to dead hang with your feet straight unless you're closer to 5' tall. The same "width" caveat applies to the push up bars at the base. You can do some good narrow grip pushups and the height is nice, but that's about it. Overall, it does the job. It's not perfect, but a good value for the price. If you want a budget tower that can be used for a variety of exercises and is fairly compact, this works well.

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.

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¢.

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.

So I'm a 6'1" guy and weigh 180 pounds. I have the bar on the highest setting and it's very steady. Assembly could have been a bit easier though. The parts are packed as individually as possible in the large, somewhat heavy box they came in, and the bolts, nuts, and washers are packed on a labeled cardboard flap with tape all over the top covering them. You get two thin open wrenches to do the job (1 to hold the bolt head and 1 to turn the nut). Theres 20 bolts to put through slots. The instruction manual wasn't done very well but it was enough. Took me a little over an hour, maybe 90 mins with distractions, to build it. I used all the parts and tightened everything as hard as I could make it. (Don't tighten these until all bolts are in place with their nuts loose, or you'll have to backtrack, loosen, adjust, then re-tighten.) Using it is much better than I first thought. There's plenty of height room for me, my hands aren't limited by the frame, my knees can bend forward (legs crossed) during a pullup without hitting the backrest crossbar, and it doesn't wobble at all. It won't scuff your floor because of the plastic covers on the bottom, and it drags along really easily. The black metal and the many silver bolts make it look good. The padding for the hands' contact points are soft enough with a good grip. Glad I got it.

Pretty good for the price. I've had it for about 3 years now. It works fine and has never fallen over; it's pretty stable. However, it does have a lot of small movements/flex/wobble when I'm using it, and it makes creaking sounds. It's definitely not as sturdy and motionless as pull-up bars in a park installed in the ground, but of course it doesn't need to be. I've used it on both carpet and a concrete floor and both were fine. I like that it has the top bar as well as the dip bar. I removed the padded bar covers because they spin, which makes it hard to hold on. The height is good; I'm 5'7" and would not want it to be any taller - the top bar is the perfect height for me - high but not too hard to reach.
