New versions defective
Impossible to assemble as none of the included bolts fit at the supports which are needed to hold it upright. Looking at other reviews these supports are welded on, on previous versions. They’re not now, and nothing they supply fits and allows you to attach it. So it’s not possible to finish assembly on the very first step of the instruction booklet.The booklet itself is not in English, compounding the issue.

Four star quality, three stars due to awful instructions
Why does so much Chinese made stuff come with such attrocious instructions. Badly written, incomplete and in this case completely wrong in parts. Is it arrogance or incompetence that leads to these manufactirers producing such rubbish? Surely it shouldn't be beyond their wit to ask a native or at least fluent speaker to proofread?With the UK distributor presumably well aware of the above shortcomings, it is negligent on their part not to provide better instructions as part of their service.So before you race off to B&Q for longer bolts, if you use screw 15 to secure the two small plates holding the frame together at the base and not 19 as advertised, screws 19 will then be free to use where the buttress bracket, Part 10, joins the upright as the instruction led screws 15 will turn out to be too short.Once assembled it seems pretty sturdy, holds 100kg OK and I'll leave it to you to decide on £150 being value for money or not

Same problem as previous review: provided bolts are too short
I had the same issue as the previous review: 4 of the bolts provided are too short to place according to the instructions. I looked into it and the bolts provided appear to be M10 x 65mm (10mm diameter, 65 mm length excluding head) whereas the holes would need M10 x 75mm. I could not find those so instead I bought four M10 x 80mm for 4£ at the local hardware shop, they stick out a little bit do the job well enough.Aside from the bolt issue, I had no problems assembling it only by myself. The assembly instructions are not perfect, they are written in broken english but generally sufficient. It's not harder to assemble than say a typical flatpack furniture, maybe even easier as it's pretty clear which piece goes where.Once assembled it is pretty sturdy and stable. I put some gymnastic rings on it to do rows from below and it works great. It doesn't move or rock at all during pullups or dips. All the metal components are big, robust and well painted with a good and high quality looking black paint, also easy to the touch. The main moving part which allows you to adjust the height is a screw that seems quite robust.The pad elements however are low quality and you can tell if you look closely. The fake leather already has a hole and some threads are ripping out. It's been stapled on the foam somewhat haphazardly. Not sure they will look too good in a few months time but let's be honest I'll only use this for two months then go back to eating burgers and chips.I paid 180£ for it, you can see similar ones on other websites for 100£ but most of these are out of stock. So I think I overpaid but that's ok, I'll live with it.I put it on my terrace so now all my neighbors can see me. I like to imagine that they judge me every time I skip a session.

happy purchase
Very happy with this so far. All parts included with additional spare fixings too. Feels solid and is a good size without taking up too much space. Assembled in 45 minutes by myself but would recommend 2 people, as it can be a bit awkward attaching the main vertical bars to the floor bars without support. The tower stays put during use and doesn't wobble too much or move around. Pullup bar flexed slightly on first use which worried me a bit, but then settled and now feels solid. With that in mind (I weigh roughly 134 kg) you may want to consider this if you're significantly heavier than me, although I'd confidently say it can support a lot more. Height adjusts by a good few feet. Overall, looks great and worth the price.

easy to assemble and customise safely
easy to assemble - all parts marked up on diagram. sturdy - takes 12stone person easily. have added a sit-up bar to the bottom (one of those you stick at the bottom of a door and also a removable sit-up bench from back to front. So all in all a great exercise frame - well worth the purchase - just need the time to exercise once all the DIY is completed.

Great pull up station - does what it says
The pull up station is great. It was quite easy to assemble, though the instructions miss a couple of steps and 1 screw type was incorrectly called out. Still, quite easy to assemble.I've now used it for a couple of weeks and its quite sturdy. Main uses have been pull ups, dips, knee raises.I'm not fit enough to do toe to bar raises but when I tried doing this I felt the station was not as sturdy - nothing happened, just a feeling of not being as stable.I'd recommend this product any day of the week.

Good for the money, but a piece missing
Easy to assemble and the adjustable height is handy for lower ceilings as my gym is my cellar roomHowever, the lower cross brace did not come with the box. So the two upright bars only have the central bar with the pad on it as support.All other parts are there and it is assembled and seems strong enough for my weight. It would be nice if it had the hanging arm supports, but it is good for the money.To the company, could you send the missing cross piece please?RegardsBrian Cobbold

No instructions unless you speak another language
The instructions booklet was in french, Spanish , Italian and German ...no English which was ridiculous. The bars and screws of all sizes weren’t labelled and a simple job with the correct instructions should take no time at all. Hours later we had it up. Wouldn’t recommend
