Customer Review: Defective
I basically payed for a metal bar. The product was defective, having only on piece of metal. This meant that it did not telescope and only stayed one size, about as wide as me. It was too small to fit in any doorframe, since the size was not adjustable.
Do not get this product.
I got a bar from Sport’s Authority and it works fine. And if it breaks, I can always take it back unlike this bar.
Customer Review: Wish I had bought this years ago!! GREAT! 2 thumbs up!
I have had my chin up bar for over a year now, I initially bought it to encourage my “couch potato” kids to challenge themselves or each other! Well it has accomplished that & MORE! My boys now are a LOT leaner & toned, this was an easy “fun” way to get into becoming physically fit! When you see it everyday it is an easy “prompting” to see how many you can now do! We started with some of the kids only being able to hang on it, after reaching it standing on a stool! The youngest kids did NOT want to be left out of the FUN! They even got me, old mom to try my muscles out with it! I am considering buying more for each kids bedroom door, as whenever they see someone doing it, they all have to wait for turns to see if they can out do the other kids (this takes some time as I have “MANY” children!!) SEVEN, & 5 are boys! :.)
The ONLY “CON” is that due to soooo much use it has pushed apart the molding in the door’s frame where it is installed, that will be easy enough to remedy (knocking it back in place) IF we ever go to sell the house.
It is a small enough price to pay for my boys “new found” muscles & has spurred them onto all types of other physical conditioning competing. The latest is seeing who can do a “PLANK” the longest! Mom is holding the lead thus far at a consistent 7 minutes with an occasional 8! But ONLY on an EMPTY stomach first thing in the A.M.! LOL I HIGHLY recommend this inexpensive bar for yourself or a friend, it makes a GREAT gift!
