“This is perfect for people with smaller spaces, especially in the city! Or even if you have a bigger space but want something very portable. This portable pull-up bar & dip station has a pretty simple but sturdy design. It looks great when its in-use but also great when its folded away.
Regarding its stability, I think its great for something that's not bolted in. When doing strict pull-ups, I don't perceive any noticable wobbles. Even when doing explosive pull ups or if I kip a bit, the product wobbles only a bit, and I'm not sure if that's due to my floors being uneven.
I am 5'8" and I think the height of the bar is perfect for me. When standing on the ground, I can place my hands on the bar very comfortably, with my arms straight up (with just a slight bend) and my palms over the bar in a false grip. Obviously everyone has different arm lengths, but I'd say I think my arm length is average for my height.
Regarding the ease of setting it up and putting it away, ITS SO EASY! After the first few times, I can set the product up or put it away within one minute. Setting up is: opening up the base legs (4 repetitive steps)(~30s), bringing up the main bar (~20s), securing the hinges in place (~5s), and putting in the file safety locks (~5s). Tear-down takes the same amount of time per step in reverse.
The dip handles are great too. There are "only" three settings for the dip handles but I think that's sufficient for this product, and more settings (holes) probably reduce the integrity of the station. The top setting is placed where I can choose to do an unassisted dip if my legs are bent, or I can go assisted and place my feet on the floor. Also great for just incline push ups.
Only extra functionality I wish the product had is a way to carry the folded product around with one hand. I think there's an add-on to put it into a suitcase-like bag, but I didn't think I'd need it. It's not that big of a deal for me, since the workaround is that I can use both arms while bent over, lift it up, and waddle a bit to put it away.
Other than the product, customer support was great too. I had some questions about the product and they were very responsive via email (and also very nice).
Overall, 10/10. I would (and have) recommend.”
“Had a small issue with the product when it arrived. Support helped to resolve the issue very quickly and reasonably. I have loved the bar ever since I started using it. 10/10”
“The ball bar has exceeded my expectations. Not only is it super portable, but I am amazed at how dirty it is. I’m so glad that I purchased this, and it will last me for many years to come.”
“Love the Bullbar 2.0. It is easily stores out of the way in a corner of my bedroom. When I want to workout, it is quick and easy to setup. It is sturdy and stable.”
