Ainfox Power Tower, Capacity 550 Lbs Pull Up Bar Tower Dip Stands Fitness Gym Office

Dips - When I do dips, there is no rocking or flexing of the Power Tower. It feels really solid. I've been trying to find a way to work all three heads of the triceps and those dips deliver such a nice pump.Vertical Knee Raise - The handles are a bit too close to my torso for me to use. When I use the handles, my body is pushed too high for the back cushion to support me. I've found a way to modify the exercise so that it works nicely.Pull Up and Chin Up bars - I use the tallest setting for the bar and that lets the chin/pull up bar travel forwards and backwards a little bit but once I put my weight on it, it's solid. I'm too tall to freely hang from the pull/chin up bar so bending my knees is a must.Assembly - all of the nuts, bolts, and washers come packaged and labeled nicely so that made assembly a lot simpler. The only advice I would give is that you have a socket set on hand for assembly. I'm sure that the included tools allow you to assemble the unit but after using the included tools (the two "wrenches") on a handful of bolts I realized assembly was going to take hours and I was concerned for my knuckles after a few slips of the wrench.Safety - it is very important to position the unit on a level flat surface. I have not put any sandbags or other weights on top of my Power Tower yet and I don't see a need to now that it's on a level flat surface.Capacity - If I ever get to the point where I need to wear weights when doing dips, I will be glad that this Power Tower handles 550 pounds.Delivery - The product actually arrived a day early and in excellent condition.Oily Smell - I've heard a few people mention an oily smell. I can confirm that it smells oily but it's only mildly annoying when I sniff my hands after using the Power Tower. I keep it in my two-car garage and it does not stink up the garage. For all of the people who were bothered by the oily smell, I hope that the smell dissipates over time.If I weren't so tall and heavy, I would give the product 4 stars for the few height/weight related shortcomings I mentioned above, but as someone in the 99th percentile for height and 90-something percentile for weight, I want to be fair to this fine product (with a great price).

First off this is my first time purchasing anything like this pull station. The instructions and putting it together was a breeeze and it was definitely easy to follow the instructions. The material and build looks great and I do like the quality of the product. I weight 230-240 6’1 and I can use this without issue. Now when I do pull-ups my weight is supported and the the product does not move and I trust it which is important. When I do dips the product does sway more. When I first began doing dips it was swaying more but I believe it was do to me not not use to the movement because body weight exercises are not my strong suit. After getting my body use to doing dips I can say the sturdiness improved, however, I still noticed the product swaying. Again I trust it and it does feel as if it will break but the company should put more weight on the back end to support the persons weight on the front. The overall I am happy with the purchase and rate it 4 stars. I would recommend the purchase. Having a few home gym pieces is essential this day in age and the product is a good addition.

I ordered this being a little skeptical that it could hold my weight (250lbs) also had concerns with my height (6'2) being an issue. The day before it arrived I got an email from the company saying that the instructions that comes with it where hard to read, and they sent me updated instructions via email. Already up a notch in my book. The power tower arrived 3 days after I ordered it....and I live in Hawaii. I was stoked.Putting it together: the instructions they emailed was super easy. Use your own tools, way easier. All the parts where there undamaged. The nuts and bolts where scattered but still in their packaging. Took an extra 10min to figure out which was what..then total time took maybe an hour to put together.Test time: definitely holds my weight plus more. It does shake just a little, but for what I paid for it I really can't complain and it was expected. It doesnt shake to the point where I can't do the exercise. If its wobbling and shaking a lot for you it may be defective or you need to check your connections. All in all great buying experience, and great product.

The product is functionally what I wanted. But there are some disturbing quality flaws that bring the rating down.I am 5’10, 235lbs. Assembled correctly, it is solid and perfect for helping to build core strength. I added some bands to help build on my pull ups, and all is good.Unpacking it, I came across rust on the inside of the bags around the metal pieces. I found rust on the floor after standing things up during assembly, and rust is visable through the screw holes on some pieces.There is a cut on one of the arm pads. Since these were in the middle on the packaging, and since I didn’t use a knife to open the package, it has to be from their end.The bushings around the pull up bar are damaged and broken on both ends.There are scratches on some of the pieces.The included “wrench/driver” tools should be chucked. I used two ratchets and a real screw driver. You will need a Phillips screw driver, and sockets or wrenches or an adjustable wrench:- two 17mm (best fit on the leg screws and nuts)- a 9/16th inch- a 1/2 inchAssembly was simple and (once tightened with proper tools) the structure became stable and good for use.The rust worries me. I don’t think I will try to get a return, because the area it’s in should be dry and further rust damage minimized. But it came prerusted. That’s not a feature like “preshrunk”.
