MAGIC FIT Power Tower Dip/Pull Up Station Multi-Function Workout Equipment for Home Gym Training Fitness Exercise 8 Levels Adjustable Height

Definitely do recommend, especially for the money. There may be better options out there which cost more, but I'd buy this brand/model again if I needed another power tower. Below is my general write-up, plus final notes after my first workout with it.*note: I'd add pics, and might later, but my phone won't allow it right now for some reason*pros: - fairly easy to assemble - looks as advertised - all pieces including small pieces were accounted for (some reviews mentioned screws or larger pieces missing) - after my first workout, nothing bent out of place, there are no horrible wobbles or imbalances, it does what it was advertised to do - biggest thing for me was the ability to modify the pull-up bar height since I don't have high ceilingsCons: - the English in the instruction manual is sketchy, but the illustrations were enough to allow easy assembly - the dip bars had some definite wiggle problems both horizontally and vertically when assembled and tightened (I was able to fix the horizontal wiggle with some extra washers which I'll explain later, and the vertical wiggle isn't a true issue since all your weight goes one direction) - the dip bars' vertical handles for leg/knee raises are pretty far forward. I have long arms and can see how shorter people would have issues grasping them while also having their backs on the backrest. However, I've done raises without handles to grasp at all before, so possibly it's not a make or break problem for people; also, you don't HAVE to have your back on the backrest to do those exercises, and I prefer not to [though that arguably makes the backrest worthless]. Newer versions of this power tower should include modifiable vertical handle lengths, but it's passable in my mind) - the wide grip part of the pull-up bar seems a little oddly placed to me, but I typically do closer, shoulder-width pull-ups anyway. I'll try some in my first workout and leave a review down belowReceiving and putting it together: I have to admit I was skeptical buying this especially after looking at 1 star and 2 star reviews of the various power towers out there. I've wanted a power tower for a little over a year mostly for dips but also pull-ups and leg raises. After a lot of researching, I decided to give this one a try (I had been using my door-frame pull-up bar before this [which is ok, but I wanted something I could use with the rest of my gym equipment outdoors]). It took a little while to be delivered, but that was understandable for something coming halfway around the world and during the pandemic. The box was pretty beat up when it did arrive, but all the pieces were in there and nothing had been damaged thankfully; everything was wrapped in individual plastic. I put this together within a couple of hours by myself. A few notes on that: 1) I definitely recommend putting the push-up bars on first instead of last. 2) the dip bars were super wobbly/wiggly when it was all put together. I took those back off and figured out a decent fix: I found 4 extra washers of the same approximate size and put them on the INSIDE of the dip bar screw areas (4 in total; I taped them into position with clear tape and then cut a small slit in the centers to allow the screw to pass through when re-assembling). Doing this stopped the horizontal wobbling completely and after tightening everything at the end of full assembly, it feels pretty sturdy. 3) if you lose a screw or some other small piece, you're going to have to replace it yourself as there are no extras in the box. I imagine you could if you had to, but it would be better if the makers included an extra bolt, washer, nut, etc. (I wouldn't mind paying another dollar or two for piece of mind).1st workout with it: I weigh about 165-170 and am 5'11". I did 5 sets of back-to-back pull-ups, leg raises, push-ups, and dips. Pull-ups: I did a couple of sets holding out wide and it more or less felt fine. I'll probably stick with the shoulder-width ones I'm used to, but it wasn't really uncomfortable holding out wide. No wobbling from tower. Leg raises: definitely cannot both put my back on the backrest AND hold the vertical handles. I opted to hold the vertical handles without my back on the backrest and it was fine for me, but it does mean the backrest is mostly worthless in this scenario. I tried putting my back on the backrest and not holding h handles, but without the forearm pads canted inwards, I couldn't comfortably do the exercise. *This doesn't mean I find it unusable by any means; in fact, I'd rather keep my back off the back rest as that's how I learned how to do the exercise anyway years ago.* I still think future versions need to either have the handles recessed back a few inches or for them to be modifiable to be users' arm length. Push-ups: the handles didn't bend under my weight even though I was worried they might. The fit between the handle and the bar beneath it isn't quite snug though, so they tend to push out a couple centimeters, but it definitely doesn't make them unusable. A little padding in the gap would clear that up and I might try a couple layers of athletic tape later. They work just fine for me now though. Dips: same as with the pull-ups, I was hoping the dip handles would hold during the exercise...and they did without fail. No wobbling, wiggling; I'm happy that one of the main reasons I bought this power tower came through. Note: my wife weighs a bit more than me and it held her weight as well (about 200). I plan to do my future workouts with a 20 lb weight vest.Final thoughts: I might tighten a couple screws after my first workout, but that was to be expected with some movement during its first-ever use. I might take the forearm pads apart and re-pad them so they bow upwards on the outside to give them some cant inwards (so my elbows/forearms don't want to try and slip off when they get sweaty.) The rubber grips will probably fall apart with repeated use over time (as anything rubbery does with sweat and use), but I'll probably end up re-gripping them with athletic tape and maybe some tennis racquet grip when that happens. Besides a couple things I've mentioned (which can be fixed in later versions and doesn't make the current version unusable), this is everything I was hoping for in a power tower.I'm really happy for what I paid and received. I'll purchase this again, or recommend it to others, in a heartbeat.I'll update this review if anything detrimental happens

I bought this mainly to motivate me to do more abs workouts. I hate getting on the floor because I have low blood pressure and getting back up makes me lightheaded.I put this in my bedroom so I’d have no excuse to ignore it. The footprint is slightly bigger than I was expecting since it doesn’t sit flush against the wall but it’s light enough that I can easily make it fit my space better when I get all the unnecessary junk out of the room.Putting it together wasn’t terribly hard except for two things. The instructions were in the same bag as the back rest, and because I am an idiot, I didn’t realize this when I set that piece aside. I emailed the seller (who did reply quickly although they basically said they already gave me instructions) and also put up a question here but again, I am an idiot and therefore I can’t figure out how to un-ask my question. Maybe I have to do that in the app but as a UX/UI person, my professional opinion is that this should be achievable on the mobile site. Amazon, you have a lot of money, there is no excuse for this other than trying to force people into using the app, which has different usability issues and doesn’t let me donate with smile as far as I can tell.The other installation problem was that I was missing exactly two of the M10 x 70 bolts. Luckily, these are apparently standard for fitness equipment, and so I just used hardware left over from extra bolts I was sent when I was missing pieces of some other thing I bought. Did I use the wrong bolts on some other step? Could I have dropped these somewhere or set them down? Could they have been stolen by kleptomaniac leprechauns? Did mothman appear inside my house, eat them, and then vanish mysteriously into some unknown plane of existence? I have no idea, but you should count all your hardware beforehand just in case. I ended up with four extra bolts and several random extra washers that I know don’t go anywhere after checking and retracing my installation steps three times.Having put it together, it seems pretty sturdy. I’m 5’6” and around 148lb currently. Dips and pull ups work pretty well and I anticipate using those functions more than I originally intended. My only issue with the tower is that I have short arms and the handles you’re supposed to use for leg raises are slightly too far forward for me to grab and keep my back against the rest, which makes doing these difficult in a way they’re not supposed to be. This is probably not as big an issue for most people but I figured I’d mention it for anyone else with alligator arms. I am probably going to get longer screws for the backrest and put something between it (perhaps a block of wood) and the mount to push me slightly more forward. I can still do hanging leg raises with the pull-up bar, though, in the meantime.The finish on it seems pretty nice. I didn’t notice chipped paint or anything like that. All the pieces fit together pretty well.It’s not perfect but definitely seems like a decent value for the price, and I am planning to use it quite a bit.
