Be careful! Oct 23, 2006
By M. Pregmon
I used this product successfully as a chin-up bar (palms facing me). When I turned my grip away to do pull-ups, the bar slipped while I was at the top of my pull. I fell and got a few bumps and bruises. This happened twice (shame on me). I did put some cushioning material on the bar that goes over the frame so as to protect the wall from damage. Be careful how you use it. I have decided not to use mine anymore until I find a way to attach it more securely.

Everlast? Probably won't be ever lasting. Nov 10, 2005
By Antonio Fernandez
CONS:
1. Incorrect hardware: Like other reviewers, the nuts and bolts do not seem to be the best.
2. Harms surface. One side that holds on to other side of the wall has a very abrasive surface which will mar any paint/finish. This material was probably chosen to prevent slippage, however rubber might've worked as well.

PROS:
1. Cheaper than others.

CONCLUSION:
For the price it's okay, but I don't think it's going to last 2+ years of daily use. Very annoying was the hardware provided which doesn't seem to match the description in the user manual.

Not for six-inch interior framing Mar 13, 2006
By R. Dale
This seems to be a fine product. However, our house was built with six inch studs (instead of the usual four inch studs). This means the door frames are wider, and this product does not work with these dimensions.

Excellent...as a chin-up bar only May 07, 2006
By Jss
OK the price is certainly right so lets keep that in mind.

Pros:
a. Rock solid mounting in a standard doorway (see assembly)
b. Ergonomics are well thought out
c. Supports my 185 pound frame well with no noticable frame flex/shift
d. No noticable damage to door frame, I plan to buy some felt to cover the wood/wall contact points but it looks ok as is.

Cons:
a. Hardware - some of the screws/bolts are wrong for this application. I spent about $2.00 extra to buy a couple of new bolts with locking nuts. This is to replace the oddly square headed ones that are supposed to go in the wood portion. I also bought "locking" washers all the way around for all bolts - total cost +2.00. It has been mentioned before that a few of the plastic protective caps are missing - mine was the same case. No big deal here but it is a common complaint.
b. It claims to support 300 pounds. I suppose it could "hold" a 300 pounder but to actually do repetitive excersise reps I have my doubts.
c. Photo advertising is somewhat misleading. As a chin up bar I give it high marks but the multi function excersises (photos) leave a bit to be desired. Do not plan on using this for much more than its original purpose.

DO spend your time to put this together very solid using multiple socket tools and everything should be fine.

The "free" shipping to Texas took about 7 days from order.

Hope in one hand. **** in the other. See which fills up first. Jan 27, 2006
By Goaty66
I try to be optimistic but this thing isn't helping. I can't believe they put the Everlast name on this piece of junk. I read the other reviews and figured I'd try my luck. Naturally, I also received the wrong assembly hardware. The bolts are too small (or the holes are too large) in diameter to provide anything but sloppy construction. The parts list and assembly instructions show six of only one type of nut. There are two types included: four lock nuts, two standard nuts. The parts list and assembly instructions also show six PVC caps for the nuts. There are only four. The metal tubing seems rather thin walled for the price. Maybe I'm too picky but shouldn't some step of the product development process involve actually assembling one of these things and trying it out? I guess it's just another example of the growing trend of "Give people the least quality they'll stand for."
