Mirafit VKR Multi Function Gym Power Tower - Black or Silver

Truly solid, good quality, and good delivery. It arrived in 2 big packages, total of 36kg. Fairly manageable.Installation instructions are very simple and clear. But sometimes I needed to speculate the order of some installations, but it went ok, and got it at one time without the need to repeat or unscrew anything. It took me around 1:40 hours to assemble.I used for assembly:17mm spanner and an adjustable wrench.13mm and 14mm spanners.You have to hold the screw head with a tool, and screw the bolt with another, as if you don't that, bolts are very tight on nail tail, and the nail will just keep spinning with the bolt you are screwing.I love playing on it. Very solid, not wobbly, stable, sturdy, and pads are ok comfy. I prefer doing the pullups with my back to the back pad, not facing it. I am 170cm, 70kg. Easily adjustable situps feet holders.The only weird thing is that the pullup bar itself, wobbles inside the holding bars. It is built that way, not a defect. But i don't understand the logic behind that? Maybe the creators wanted to make some kind of "flexibility" to the bar to give it room for movement? I don't know.It's only bothering me because when i do dips it kinda clanks. Or maybe i shake a lot because i am rusty and haven't trained for a while?But that's not a reason not to buy it. It is REALLY good. Easy to assemble, very solid, stable, and very practical sportswise.Very happy i bought it!

Solid piece of kit. I'm 217 pounds (98kgs) and it's easily taking my weight. Bear in mind that it's widest at the top, and that the space required for the length has to incorporate a person's height doing press ups (7ft to maybe 8-9ft for very tall people).Some construction pointers:The instructions are an exploded diagram format. Swot up on them for a while before starting. I used it to ID all the parts were present, and became more familiar with the parts.For fastest assembly, you will need 2 x 17mm, 1 x 14mm, 1 x 13mm sockets / spanners. I prefer a ring spanner to hold, and a socket bar to do the work. All fixings have washers (and nylon lock nuts where applicable). All fixings were sweet to work with.Suggest you fix the top cross member to the two vertical parts before adding to the build. Now here was the only flaw in the instructions. There are two small box parts that slot into the cross member assembly (presumably to reinforce the cross member position and prevent bolt crushing). The diagram doesn't detail these parts, so I had it pretty much assembled before discovering this. Small set of steps to undo and add them it etc. It's far easier to assemble all this at ground level.Suggest you attach, but not tighten the nuts & bolts for many of the steps. It allows for easier alignment of bolt holes.It's a one-person job, but a second person won't hurt for holding some parts in place from time to time.Be aware that the 45 deg cross members (the standing plates) are not symmetrical. There's potentially a high and low way to place them. The instructions and the photographs have them both set at the low setting. I estimate that people under 5' 1" (wearing trainers) might struggle to reach the top cross member at the low setting. I don't see a structural issue in turning them to the high setting (2-3 inches higher). This kit is probably unsuitable for people under 4' 10".The cross member does 'rattle' slightly when used (tightened very securely). This isn't a worry. It's just the bar itself is not gripped to prevent crushing, so it moves slightly against the bolt shafts.Other than the slightly complicated instructions, I can't fault it. Don't rush the construction. It's probably a 1 hour job with breaks for double checking best ways to proceed.

This is a high quality piece of exercise equipment, a great addition to any home gym or for use on its own. It's very well made sturdy easy to put together the grips on the pull up/chin up bar along with the dip handles are very comfortable so there's no chance of your hands slipping or blisters. The back and arm supports are also of a high quality for when your doing the leg raises. I'm 6ft 5 in and closer to the maximum user weight and it has no problem accommodating me it feels very sturdy when your using it, there's no movement of the tower when in use although I do have it on a non stick gym mat (not provided) but even on a hard floor/wooden surface I don't think it would move. One final point there's enough space between the dipping handles and back support so that a weighted dipping belt can be used helping you to maximise the towers full potential

Not really used a power tower much before but, will forever need one after using this for over a year. Throw out your ab board if you have the ceiling height for this, pretty durable too I'm over 100kg and haven't bent or broken this yet. Perfect for dips, chin ups, vertical press ups, and although prob not recommended i use my inversion boots on this and was pleasantly surprised. Comes in a deceptively small box and needs the usual array of adjustable spanners to assemble, but its worth it and pretty cheap too, an essential to complement your usual home flat bench n free weights. 100% recommended

The pull up station is sturdy and nicely designed, no complaints about the product itself. It's easy to set up but best to have 2 people do it.The writing on the back pad peeled off the first day I set it up but I received a new one later on. There was a missing part so I circled it on the manual and showed them and they still managed to send me the wrong part. Very disappointed with their customer service.

Mounting it is more complicated than IKEA furniture, but not much more. If you have minimal experience with a spanner it shouldnt be a problem at all. It will be good to have someone helping you, but ultimately i managed to assemble it alone. The whole construction is sturdy enough. The back pack indeed is too close if you do chin-ups facing it, then your knees may hit against it, but i just chin up with my back to the pad
