Sagler Pull up bar Doorway Heavy Duty Chin up bar Trainer for Home Gym Doorway Pull up bar or dip bar

Since my son joined JROTC, he has taken an interest in his physical fitness. We always encourage new interests, but as any parent can tell you such interests can be fleeting. As such, the key to frugal parenting is finding relatively inexpensive and unobtrusive ways to encourage blooming interests, and this product is perfect. He assembled it himself from it's packaging in just a few minutes; we had it hanging above his doorway in just a few seconds more. While he currently only weighs around 130 lbs., it feels rock solid, which suggests to me it could easily handle more. The material is just heavy-duty enough to get the job done, while being lightweight enough to easily remove and store in a closet when necessary. My son has taken to doing three quick pull-ups each time he passes his door, which means in the months since he's had it, this chin up bar has already seen hundreds of uses. After such use, it looks and feels brand new. We can't speak to it's being good for a heavier or bigger person, but for a trim young man it is perfect. I normally use terms like "for the money", but in this case I can't imagine anything working any better at any price. Solid product.

This was easy to assemble and not as large as some of the competitors. I bought a similar one that I had to return because it was too wide to fit on any of my doors due to my door frame being too close to a wall and not allowing enough room for how wide the bar was. I like this one better because it's not as wide & it is a lot lighter and easier for me to hang on door and remove. Even though it is lighter than the one I returned it is still very sturdy.

So far this pull up bar has been great for me, especially for the price. I share it with my brother, and I use it everyday. For reference I do between 80 to 150 pull-ups a day, and no signs of breaking so far. The only thing keeping me from rating five stars is the grips. The grips that the bar came with are made of foam and while they aren’t great they didn’t suck either: the bad thing is that they degraded pretty quickly and became kinda painful to use. Especially on top the grips literally wore away to the point that they broke and fell off, so now I have my bar taped for grip that I did myself. Also; the screw tend to come loose a bit once in awhile but I do use it quite a bit. I weigh 180 pounds, and even with me wearing a 30 on backpack on top of my own weight it holds strong. Overall decent budget buy.

Easy to assemble. Fits all standard door frame sizes. Just quickly mount, use and dismount. No need to permanently install or drill holes. Sturdy and portable.

Received it within a few days of ordering. Pulled it out of the box and got it all set up within half an hour. Pretty simple instructions. I bought this to help me improves my pull up numbers for the Marine Corps PFT, so far I've noticed some improvements, and I haven't even had it for very long. The only pick I have on this product is having to put a the safety clip into the door frame. I was fairly nervous about that but I think we've all seen the videos of people falling from the bar, so its safe to say that it's necessary. I would definitely recommend a pull up bar, and this one gets the job done at a very reasonable price. Easy to set up and even take down when not in use. I have it in a spot where I am always walking past it, and I rep out pull ups nearly a half dozen times a day. Good little workout right at home.

Inserted what looked like 1 of 4 identical bolts into the apparatus only to find I should have inserted the other hardly noticeable "shorter" bolt. After nearly fastening the bolt and nut I found it was about 2mm too long to be secure, so I thought, "No big deal, I'll just unfasten it." Wrong. The nut would not release as fastening feature didn't hold properly because the bolt size was different, and the bolt was too recessed into the hole to use pliers. Now I'm stuck trying to unscrew a round head bolt incapable of attaching a wrench unless I go out and buy more specialized tools. I understand I made the initial mistake, but with what seemed like tiny error turned into a HUGE inconvenience. The instructions were small and hard to read, and all would have been fine if they simply stated the importance of not mixing up the nearly identical bolts (or at least made the fastening shape the same in the holes). I'm now left with a partially assembled annoyance and 20 odd bucks in the whole. Horrible experience.

The product is pretty minimal, as is its price and simple to assemble and install. The fasteners did not appear robust enough and unfortunately one mounting bolt and nut stripped during assembly. I contacted the indicated customer service and I was told that they will ship replacement parts/ fasteners to my address. Eight days later, I still do not gave these parts. I will wait a bit more and then I will either try to find replacements myself, or return the product.

Great
