Pros & Cons
Pros
It has its slight bend when doing dips (but it's supposed to) in 5 o'clock traffic, engineers design the bridge to shake when you're stopped on it. Good dip bar spacing (for smaller people), the height of the pull-up bar is great, and the pads are nic... Read More
It is a sturdy and mostly comfortable power tower that will serve you well. It's quite light so i highly suggest getting an exercise mat to place underneath as it slides easily on the carpet. It will fit basement or even in your bedroom it will.
Quality seems to be really good once assembled and very sturdy. My son plans on using this daily so i'll update again in a month to see how it holds up.
Cons
I am 200lb and dips on this machine are impossible as it shakes all over the place. The dip handles are very small in circumference so they really hurt your hands too. The leg lift parts are ok, but are uncomfortable.
This thing is made in china. They send you with cheap aluminum hardware. It isn't as sturdy as i'd hoped and imagined. It shakes really bad.
The product works but is very cheap. For me this item is a serious mistake. Now on to my real complaint. Quality is ok, so is 99% of the stuff on amazon.
Highlights
Quality
Easy to assemble sturdy does what is intended
Very sturdy feeling rack feels of good quality
The house is old and has very thick ornate casing around the doors so most of the pullup bars don’t work as they won’t fit over... Read More
I got it after the doorway pull up bars keptneother ruining the paint on the doors or just didn’t work
Price
For less than 200 im getting great use out of this and was pleased with how easy it was to assemble
For the price this thing is awesome
Overall this was a great purchase for the price
For the price it functions very well
Shipping
While i understand it may take a few days to ship i cant excuse the slow response as an acknowledgement email can easily be sent
Customer serviced had some replacements shipped to me quickly for a small fee
Had to wait a long time for its arrival due to covid shutdown but it was well worth the wait
Packaging/appearance
This powertower came wellpackaged with no damaged or missing parts
Hardware kit was complete and very well package with components clearly identified for ease of assembly
It didnt take much more time to put it together approx 40 minutes than it took to unpack it
First the packaging very extensive borderline obsessive every piece in its own bag usually with a carton boot or two at the ends
Competitiveness
Compared to the pullup bar station that goes above your doorframe this is leaps and bounds better
Very similar to the ones in the gym
You obviously have a lot of options here on amazon and i always get overwhelmed with reviews prices brand comparisons etc
I dont have any other athome versions to compare it to but it seems like a good value to me

Its not gym quality as far as sturdiness or back support is concerned

Im guessing some of the negative reviews are either for damage during shipping or the users own fault in assembly
