5excellent strength and hardware is easy to install  Aug 25, 2010
I was a bit skeptical about this bar, as I've seen some flimsy ones, but I even had my 250lb roommate hang from it and it held strong. It took me about 15 minutes from unpacking to having it completely installed. The instructions for installing left something to be desired, but the pieces themselves were easy and I figured it out with only a little pondering.

5The One Star Reviews Aren't Accurate  Jul 31, 2010
Anyone that wrote a bad review about this item was missing a few brian cells.
Not safe?
No, not installed properly.
I use it everyday (135lbs) and my roomate that is 240 lbs uses it as well. (Might want to try screwing it tighter, or making sure it's tightened before you use it -- common sense)

And yes, the hand grips ARE moveable on the bar.

I bought this item for 15 dollars and have gotten my money out of it ten fold..
Plus, I love showing off my guns!

3It did its job but...  May 27, 2010
Is easily loosened up. It also leaves fairly bas scuff marks. I'm keeping mine, this is just a heads up.

1Not worth it...  Apr 21, 2010
This product seemed great when it came in, but then you realize it is a complete disaster.

Yes, they are movable. But, as has been said before, it is a total pain. And if you do, like has been said, your grip will be all wrong as one side is smaller in diameter than the other. And if you don't move them you will crash into the door frame, thus ruining your form.

It does hold well. However, it wears out really quickly. So, after a few uses you will have to use a wrench to tighten it because the grooves inside the bar, which turn the threaded rod that spreads the thing out, will wear down completely.

The bar, which slides over top of the threaded rod, will actually slip off while you are using it, which is dangerous. I have a nice cut on my arm because of it.

Not recommended at all, junk junk junk.

1Dangerous and Inefficient  Mar 02, 2010
I bought this chin-up bar for my college dorm room, trying to buff up a little. The first time I tried it, it fell, as did I. I landed on my upper back and head, blacking out for just under a minute. Luckily, I had a friend in the room who woke me up. Upon waking I had trouble breathing for another minute or so. My friend managed to get air into my lungs and I went to hospital the next day for x-rays. I spent two weeks in and out of hospitals and specialist's offices. Please do not buy this product. It can cause severe damage and internal bleeding due to the fact that it lacks any real measure of sturdiness.
