"Great product for indoor pullups"

I really like that this bar sticks out away from the doorway so you do not hit your head on the door frame when doing pull ups. It also allows you to do wide grip pull ups. I have a very small door way trim and there is no problem keeping the bar in place.

The one downside are the two small black marks (and slight depressions) on the doorway trim from the foam on the support bar (where all the weight is). They aren't very noticeable, but I don't think I will be able to get it off. 4 stars

"Probably best of its kind but a pain to assemble"

This is the best chin up bar I could find and is incredibly sturdy. What I like most is that it sticks out away from the door so you can do full chin-ups without having to watch your head. This model also has several different places to grip which makes it very versatile. And finally you don't have to drill any holes in your walls or door frame and when you start using it you are in no fear of coming crashing down.

On the down side, on what should have been a piece of cake to put together became a real pain in the butt. On mine I ended up with one bolt with messed up threads half way up so that it is still somewhat loose and will probably end up being replaced soon.

Also on another note. Mine was covered with rust in several parts which all came off with a little scrubbing. But obviously it was not stored in the most ideal conditions.

Still I am very pleased with it overall, the best chin-up bar available, but not perfect. 4 stars

"5 stars if it has better installation documents"

5 stars if it has better installation documents. The picture on the installation document does help you put piece together. I put T-shirt on the bar, so I can avoid black mark on the door frame 4 stars

"Great Pullup Bar"

Im 6ft 200lbs and do 50 pullups 1 day per week... this baby rocks the kazbaar! but a close buddy of mine did by it after using mine and is having some doorframe /size issues so check the specs it gives you closely. Other than that, it put together in 20 min nad feels very well built. 5 stars

"Excellent Product"

This product was shipped to me in a very timely manner and it is as described. I had no problem assembling or using it. It's a fine product that I use at least 4-5 times a week. 5 stars
