Editorial Reviews:
The GoFit Chin Up Bar is a great addition to your at home training program. Not only is the bar perfect for chin-ups, it can also be used as a foot anchor for sit-ups and crunches. The GoFit Chin-Up bar will adjust to fit most standard width doorframes. Before using always make sure that the brackets are properly mounted and the bar is securely adjusted to fit mounting brackets. DO NOT use bar without properly mounted brackets. The GoFit Chin Up Bar comes with one heavy duty adjustable chin up bar and mounting hardware. Mounting hardware will include 2 silver weight bearing brackets for mounting high in you door and 2 black or red plastic non-weight bearing stoppers for mounting the bar low in the doorway for doing sit-ups. Suggested weight bearing limit is 300 lbs. when properly mounted. DO NOT mount in doorway wider than 34". Black foam rubber grips on the bar are not adjustable.

Summary: Not same as the old model
Comment: I bought one in 2006 and it was the one in the picture with the round mounting heads that nicely hides the screws, and the padding was thick and comfortable. The new one with the hexagon shape mount sucks, it now has thin padding that is wrapped on by velcrose. The mounting pieces on the new model isn't totally flat and doesn't flush against the door frame. The uncovered mount also doesn't hide the screws and very unsightly. I was impressed with the original product and was buying another to mount upstairs. The company has cheapened their product to save a few bucks but they have absolutely lost me as customer.

Summary: Sturdy and reliable, but sometimes uncomfortable.
Comment: The GoFit Chin-Up Bar is very sturdy, having been made of metal and a bit of foam to make hanging more comfortable. However, despite the addition of the thin layer of foam, it is still uncomfortable to use when used in succession. It's understandable, since it is made of metal, just a heads up.

Also, the screws are a bit short for my taste, so with a recommendation from a fellow reviewer, I replaced them with longer screws.

Besides that, the placement of the foam itself is good and can be used as a marker for which exercise you want to use. For example, if you put your hands on the foam, you'll effectively be in a stance with your hands outside your shoulders. Put them inside, and your hands will be approximately within your shoulders. This is very good when planning your exercises.

Summary: Great bar, very sturdy
Comment: It wasn't the same bar in the picture, but i'm fine with that, because the bar and brackets are very sturdy and hold me up great. It helps to have a drill when you put in the brackets otherwise it will take a while, but with one, it only took 5 minutes. This is a great bar and i recommend it to anyone.

Summary: GoFit Chin-UP Bar
Comment: For the price paid I am satisfied. The only complaint I have is that it is hard to fit between your door jamb because of the moldings in the jamb. Easy to assemble, easy to put up. Seems sturdy. Very convenient, I have used it quite a bit. I would recommend this product.
