BangTong&Li Power Tower Black

For my money, this is a solid piece of home exercise gear at a good price. It assembles quickly and easily, adjusts easily, and is sturdy enough to handle a number of exercises. The kit even included extra parts and lubricant for the handle covers. I’m 5’9” & 120 lbs, and found it more than adequate for dips, leg lifts, chin ups and pull ups. With some plates for ballast on the rear feet, I have also been able to use it as an anchor for several resistance cable exercises, sit ups and push ups. For $100, I’ve been able to greatly expand my home gym and am seeing gains already in areas I previously had trouble isolating.

Great value for the price! I got it on sale for $130. Sturdy piece of exercise equipment where you can do pushups (better than regular pushups - these allow you to go deeper to get a more full chest workout), dips, leg raises, wide, vertical grip and normal pull ups, chin ups, and even cable atachments to add more stuff. I'm genuinely impressed. I put it together with my 14 year old son in about 1.5 hours. It was easy enough to assemble that he could have put it together himself pretty easily. I spent a day or two browsing through the different options for this type of equipment on Amazon.....and ultimately settled on this specific one for a few reasons: 1) Price. I only found a few that were under $150...I think 3 out of the 7 or so that I limited my choices down to. The average price for the ones I was interested in was around $165. 2) Vertical Grips. Most of the power towers didn't have vertical grips....and I love doing vertical grip pull ups. 3) Height Adjustment - believe it or not, not all power towers have a height adjustment. I'm a really small guy, 5'5" - and also my 14 year old son will be using this....so I definitely wanted something adjustable Cons: The only cons so far , and this is probably just preference.....but 1) the back cushion could have been bigger.. 2) the grips are a hard plastic, and are just as hard on the hands , if not worse, than the plain bar itself. So I'm going to buy some grip tape/ bicycle handlebar tape or something similar....and wrap up the dip bar, pull ups bar, etc.....to give it a bit of cushion. 3) For the regular pull ups...not the wide pull ups - there is no grip tape/handles...so again, I'll be wrapping these spots to make it easier to grab With all of that said......for what I paid $130....this is absolutely a steal. I love it!

I searched for the smallest possible power tower for my 10yo who's been on the waiting lists for physical and occupational therapy for so long that I decided to take matters into my own hands so he could at least develop some strength while he waits. I mostly got this for him to do some freestyle movement on, since he never stops moving at any time. This one is the shortest and narrowest power tower I could find so that he can use it now (but it adjusts so he can still use it as he grows, as long as he doesn't get too broad for it), with the smallest footprint to fit better in our small house. It is made for an adult but it's sized well enough for him that he loves it and uses it constantly. The instructions to assemble this aren't in perfect English but it's pretty darn good English on the whole and easy to understand, easy to follow, and includes very good diagrams. There are a few steps where the language can be just a bit confusing but between the pics and ordinary good sense, none of it was hard to figure out. I used to work at a sporting good store so I've put together a lot of exercise equipment with far, far worse instructions than this. This was a breeze to put together, because all the parts were there and the instructions were good. There's one diagram that they should update because they have apparently changed the type of bolt that's included but the diagram shows a different (previous?) bolt used in that step. And the uprights that are marked L and R had the wrong stickers marking them, but again, good sense sorted that out because of the way the arms are meant to angle inward toward the user. Putting them together the way they are marked would've had the arms angling outward. It was packaged like an engineer's dream. No wasted space, all the hardware clam-packed, well-organized, and easily identifiable, instead of tossed randomly into baggies...soft parts were protected against damage, no unnecessary packaging or room for parts to move around in the box during shipping. Everything was packed like a tetris game so there was no need for styrofoam or anything, and everything arrived in good shape. All the tools you need are in the box. It's a heavy box, plus large and awkward if you don't have long arms, but nothing I couldn't handle moving on my own. It does help to have two people to put it together. I don't think it's absolutely necessary but it helps when aligning pieces. My kiddo helped me, and that was all the help I needed. It probably took us a couple of hours going at a relaxed pace. You're going to want to work where there is plenty of floor space or somewhere to lay out the pieces as you work with them. It seems very stable and sturdy. I've used it a bit myself without it feeling wobbly or weak, and I'm no lightweight. There is a crossbar between the uprights about 1.5 feet up from the bottom that my 4ish foot tall 10yo uses as a sort of ladder rung to step on so he can get up high enough to use the tower. I'm glad it's there for him. BUT be aware that if you're trying to do knee lifts on this thing and your legs are long enough for your feet to reach below that bar (i.e. you are an adult with normal growth patterns), you will want to lift your knees in a way that keeps your feet forward as you lift them because if you lift your feet straight up for a few inches before bringing them forward, you will hit your heels on that bar. I don't recommend it, since the tears and swearing that follow will disrupt your workout mindset. This same bar hit my shins and knees when I attempted to use a resistance band to assist with pull-ups and the band pulled my legs forward a bit (I was facing backward on the tower, of course). If that bar wasn't needed as-is so my child could step up on it, I would definitely wrap a pool noodle or pipe insulation foam around it for safety. He never gets hurt on that bar, but I sure do. I'm sure it's because he has shorter legs, so his feet never get below that level, really. If you're an adult, consider cushioning that bar somehow. It's great for stabilizing the tower but it's a hazard for it to be uncushioned. Keep in mind that we have the pull-up bar adjusted down as low as it can go, to fit a child as closely as possible, so if you have it higher, that crossbar might not be a problem for you. But if it is, you'll have to do your pull-ups with your legs directly below you, not held in front. If you read the description, you'll already know that this tower includes a pull-up/chin-up bar, leg lift handles with arm rests and back rest, dip handles, and push-up handles. I showed my son how to use all of these features correctly, adjured him to make sure that he always keeps his body weight over the base at all times so he wouldn't risk tipping it (although it won't tip easily), and let him just use it to move however he wants to on it. I figure anything he does on it will help him get stronger. Even at the lowest setting, the pull-up bar is a bit too high for my son because this is designed for adults. But just a bit. The rest of the tower is just a bit too wide, but not uncomfortable or unusable at all. So I imagine an adult from around 4'8" or taller could use this. I'm not as good as source for telling you how tall a person this would suit because it's just the two of us using it and at 5'5", that makes me the tall one in the house. My son is very slight of build, so his body is narrow, and he can use this. I am fairly broad for a woman (though not out of the ordinary), and I can use it just fine. If you're a broad shouldered male, or as broad as that regardless of gender, this tower might not suit you. It's about 2 feet across from elbow to elbow where the arm cushions are. All the other handles below that level are about the same distance apart (2'). The pull-up bar is wider but the rest of your body will still need to fit within that space and allow room for movement. I'd say this tower could accommodate most heights but only for slender to average breadth people. It's about the right width for me and I'm about 17" from shoulder to shoulder. So if you have a hard time using most power towers because they are too wide for comfort or spread your arms too far apart, this might be just what you're looking for. It's not child-sized nor intended for a child, but clearly a child can use it with modifications. (Mine uses a stepstool so he can spot himself on dips, for example.) I wouldn't get it for a child who either won't understand or won't cooperate to keep his bodyweight over the base, just as a sensible precaution. I'm not recommending it for kids, I'm just saying I'm letting mine use it and it's fine so far. The paint isn't the powder-coated type but there aren't any scratches or chipping from shipping or assembling it, or from the first week of use so far since we've put it together. I do expect it to scratch and show wear at some point, but so far the paint is staying on well. I'd say it's worth what it cost and I would buy from this company again. At this stage, I would recommend this power tower to anyone who isn't too big for it, with the caveat that a cushion might be needed on that one crossbar.

Nice and solid, easy to put together.

Quick delivery, easy instructions and great product

UPDATE 27.10.2021 Nach der weiteren Kontaktaufnahme mit dem Verkäufer wurde eine Entscheidung getroffen, die für uns beide akzeptabel und nachvollziehbar ist. Der Verkäufer beantwortet alle Anfragen quasi sofort und sucht jedes mal tatsächlich nach einer optimalen Lösung, anstatt nur die dummen Ausreden zu finden. So eine Reaktion ist heutzutage sehr positiv, dennoch schon überraschend, da man leider sehr oft ganz andere Erfahrungen sammelt. Somit ist das Problem endgültig zu meiner vollsten Zufriedenheit geklärt und dadurch verbessere ich meine Note auf 5 Sterne und bedanke mich bei dem Verkäufer für die Mühen und eine optimale Lösung des Problems. Überraschend schnell kam die Station an - 3 Tage vor dem geplanten Lieferungsdatum. Alles schön und sicher eingepackt, alles neu - kein Retour o.ä.. Beim Aufbau wurden gleich 3 Teile festgestellt, die nicht einsetzbar sind: 1. Die Schraube für die obere Leiste hat eine beschädigte Gewinde. 2. Die Schraube für die Regulierung der Höhe/Tiefe ist verkrümmt und kann nicht eingesetzt werden. 3. Bei einem der beiden Armlehnen sind die Löcher für die Schrauben falsch vorgebohrt worden und zwar etwa 5-7 Millimeter zu weit.. Somit ist die Station nicht zu gebrauchen. Der Kontakt mit dem Hersteller wurde schnell aufgenommen mit der Bitte, die kaputte Teile zu ersetzen. Dabei habe ich angeboten, mit nur die Schrauben zukommen lassen. Die Armlehne hätte ich selbst repariert. Die schnelle Antwort war (alles in Englisch), dass diese Stationen nicht mehr produziert werden und somit können weder Schrauben noch die Armlehnen geliefert werden. Als Ausgleich wurde es mir angeboten, eine neue Dip Station zuzuschicken. Allerdings, ohne, dass die alte Station zurück geschickt wird. Ich brauche aber definitiv keine neue Station, sondern nur die 2-3 kleine Teile. Ansonsten muss ich selbst die Entsorgung organisieren, wofür ich aktuell absolut keine Zeit habe.. Das bedeutet: die kaputte Station geht zurück.. Das Angebot von dem Hersteller finde ich zwar fair, aber zu umständlich. Ich möchte definitiv keinen Profit daraus erzielen, sondern ich brauche eine funktionsfähige Dip Station. Und alles, was mir dafür fehlt, sind nur die 3 kleine Teile. Die Baumärkte verfügen über solche Schrauben nicht - habe bis jetzt per Mail schon 4 Absagen erhalten. Das bedeutet: für die nicht brauchbare Dip Station gibt es 0 Sterne. Für das Angebot des Herstellers klare 5 Sterne, auch wenn ich es nicht annehme. Da ich hier allerdings die Station bewerte und nicht den gesamten Verlauf, gibt es insgesamt nur 1 Stern.

First of all, this one is very easy to assemble, all tools you needed are all in one package with the equipment, and they are just fit every screws in the installation which means you do not need to prepare any other tools for the installation.At the first you may need some time to practice how to use these tools but when you skilled the installation will be very fast. All the parts, screws and nuts are labeled with numbers so I can easily find what I need to assemble and helps me understand the installation drawings. And each kind of screws, nuts and gaskets have at least one extra to prevent accidents. Aslo I really like the screws which is very thick makes the equipment very stable. As the second, this equipment is very cleverly designed. The designer put a lot of staff into a small space but I don't even feel crowded, and I can do a lot of exercise using this equipment like pull ups, sit ups, etc... I put this in my living room and it does not spoil the overall feeling at all. Overall this is a pretty good equipment and definitely it worth it's price, I really love it saves me go to the weight room because of the COVID
