It's have been a very good addition to my equipment, Allows you to perform a great variety of different exercises with some very good resistance which is what it's all about. Doesn't take up any room I've even taken it camping to burn off that excess food and drink when away.. very happy with purchase.

Excellent equipment

Excellent equipment, good quality. Purchased for my son to allow him to work out from the comfort of his bedroom, cause trust me, 17 year old boys only spend time there.

I bought a Universal Bar as my home alternative to working out at a free, local outdoor gym when it's too cold and/or wet. I watched the videos on YouTube for instructions on how to assemble it (easy) and how to use it to get a decent workout. I love it! The quality of the materials used in its manufacture is top grade and its versatility is excellent 100% recommended.

The product itself is good quality and much more strength challenging than had anticipated which is great. My 2 gripes are I paid extra for 1-3 day shipping and it arrived 10 days later so don't waste your money on this option. Second is the exercise guide locked behind an additional paywall which is a bit rich given the prices charged for units

I have to say that the product is excellent quality, far beyond similar products offered in places like eBay. Super easy to carry anywhere, I have been exercising with it for about a month and I love it. It also comes with easy-to-follow tutorials. Recommended!
