5.0 out of 5 stars Strong and does exactly what you want it to.
Home exercise equipment, especially cheaper home exercise equipment, has quite rightly got a pretty bad reputation, so I ordered these with a somewhat philosphical attitude towards what would arrive. I am delighted to say that my low expectations were unfounded. These dip bars are fantastic!!The real game changer are the adjustable stabilising bars, that allow accurate repeatable spacing between the bars for consistency workout to workout, as well as ensuring that they remain upright and reduce the risk to your shoulders and elbows through accident.As to their sturdiness, I weigh 100kg (16 stone), and dip with a heavy band looped through that handles and over my neck, meaning at the top of the dip, there is over 130kg of downward force experienced by the bars. Not so much as a creak or complaint from the welds.Same story when I lay one of the bars flat, and use the side supports as handles for deficit push ups - again, banded, full bodyweight + and solid as a rock.They also allow one to do horizontal pull ups, or body rows, meaning you can use them equally for a variety of modified pulling exercises to balance your workouts- lots of ideas available on Youtube involving similar equipment.The bars were easy to assemble, and remain user friendly and space efficient if you have to unattach them for storage.If you are still avoiding gyms and continuing to workout at home, these are an excellent and low cost way of adding options to your upper body resistance work, and I recommend them without reservation.
5.0 out of 5 stars Really easy to put together and sturdy
As the title, easy to put together and great to use toTo started with I could only just lift my body but after a couple of weeks I’ve progressed to being able to life my legs in a sort of seated position.This is great for building up to chin ups
4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good
Overall, this is a pretty good product for the price as is most Yoleo equipment I've tried so far.It's pretty easy to build and when using it I don't feel worried it's going to rock over or anything, so overall it's fairly stable, but there's definitely a noticeable moving/bowing of the frame when you're using it, it's really strong and I'm nowhere near using the advertised weight limit so can only assume it would stand up to the test, but it is a little bit distracting when you're using it as it's definitely noticeable.Overall pretty good though, especially for the money, I'd definitely recommend it and would buy again.
5.0 out of 5 stars Very sturdy (tested upto total 200kg dip including bodyweight)
I actually bought this since I managed to break the previous dipping machine I had. I'd gone for one of the non-parallel upright style dipping stations. It said it had a total load of 300kg but it felt flimsy when I went above +50kg weight. When I tried a max effort lift with +100kg the welding came completely off and the bar snapped!In comparison these parallel bars seem far more stable and I've had multiple sessions with me (105kg) + 100kg extra weight and it's still felt super sturdy. One minor complaint is that if you're adding weight using a chain belt you need to massively shorten the length of the chain since there isn't much clearance from the floor like you'd get with an upright dipping station.Overall though A+ especially if you’re planning on dipping with a significant amount of extra weight.
5.0 out of 5 stars sturdy once assembled
A bit of a faff to actually assemble but once it is done it a sturdy tricep bar. I am ~85kg and have not ever felt that it is buckling or about to break.Only thing is that the footprint is a bit bigger than I expected (which is probably what makes it stable) so not as easy to put away in a corner when not using.
5.0 out of 5 stars Sturdy apparatus
I'm a dip bar newbie and this is a great piece of apparatus to get started. I'm up to three dips, I'm absolutely smashing it ;-)
3.0 out of 5 stars Okay but wobbles
When your weight is on it and your doing dips its fairly stable. But on its own its not level on the ground as the feet of the bars are not all touching the floor. They only touch the floor when you put your weight on it.:(
4.0 out of 5 stars A great product for any beginner
I wanted to get this product as I was interested in improving my calisthenics exercises.It was super simple to setup up. Although i did find that some of the screws were a little difficult to initially rotate.My first thought is this wouldn't be stable, but in fact i was completely wrong...It was fine with my body weight and didn't seem wobbly. Definitely a nice piece of kit, can't wait to try it out 😊
