The item is well constructed and works exactly as advertised. It also comes with good workout/punching gloves which makes the total pkg a good bargain.

Pros: Works Great...able to get good cardio workout in small space

Cons: There are no instructions and it took a while to figure out how to secure the base with available parts.

The only caution I will give is start slowly...When you are starting to use for a boxing workout...you will use upper and mid back muscles that you normally would not in daily life...if you are not careful you will end up with a sore upper back...go slow...start with 5 or 10 minute sets and strecth before and after and you will appfreciate it 5 stars
