Review 1 for Weider 200 Power Tower
Excellence Service & Product!!!

My experience picking up this item at the store was great! I was greeted in a short time, and my item was hand delivered to my truck, even in the rain!
Assembling this product was extremely easy, I did it all by myself, and the only part that you really do need two people is putting the cross brace at the bottom, that was a bit tricky. After that step, one person can easily assemble the rest of the unit.
DO FOLLOW THE GUIDELINES AND NOT TIGHTEN ANY SCREWS UNTIL TOLD TO DO SO!
I can see that this product will serve me well for years to come, I weigh 220 and I have no complaints with the sturdiness. Excellent product!!!

Good Deal

This is a solid purchase. The assembly is easy for anyone with basic mechanical knowledge and simple tools. Make sure you follow the instructions and use the correct hardware for the correct part. Remember to not tighten the lock nuts until told to do so. There is a reason for this and you will not find out until the end of the assembly. I have had this power tower for about a month and I am happy. If you have a level and solid floor this will not rock. I agree with some of the other comments that the dip handles are a little wobbly. I am 6'1" and around 195 pounds, but I feel safe performing this exercise. The pull-up bar works great and overall this is a great quality product for the relatively low price. Also the free shipping at Walmart took only two days and I saved a ton of money on shipping. I strongly recommend this product!

This power tower is good for the price. I picked it up at another retailer for $100 during a sale. It is great for push-ups and pull-ups, but it is not stable enough for dips. It is very wobbly due to there only being parallel bars for the base where most power towers out there have a base that flares out. It's really annoying to not feel like you're using a stable piece of equipment when doing dips.

This product is very sturdy, I am 6'4" 250# and it does well for me. Not cheap like alot of others that I saw in this price range! To get this quality any where else would of cost me another $125 dollers! Plus I used the ship to site option and paid no shipping! Very good deal for the money!!

I have had this item for about 4 weeks now. It is very challenging but works great. It is very sturdy and does what it is supposed to do. I have lost about 4 inches on my waist so far. It's a good buy for the money.

This is a really good product for the money. I was really concerned as to whether or not it would suppport my husband's weight (he's 240 lbs) but it does. It is a little bulkier/bigger than we expected so it takes up a little more space, but really, for the price, no complaints.

This is a great piece of equipment to add to your home gym. You can do a variety of exercises- pull-ups, chin-ups, dips, leg raises, push-ups, and calf-raises. The Tower doesn't take up very much space, and is lightweight. It took about an hour to assemble. It is very stable- the only time I get any movement, is when I am straining to finish my last few dip repetitions. I am 6' tall and find the arm rests for the leg-raises comfortable. Someone shorter may have trouble with the width between the arm rests. This is the first piece of equipment that I bought for working out, and I have had great results in several months of use. Overall I highly recommend it- especially for the price. I have seen less quality power towers for much higher prices.

Very good for home use

I am 5'10" about 160lbs and this product fits me perfectly. Easy to assemble(45 min.), easy to use. Very good home workout station for the money. Mine is in spare bedroom on carpet, would probably recommend placing on top of a gym(weightroom) mat, or hard surface. Padding on carpet gives slight cushion bounce when doing dips, but nothing to be concerned with. Also takes up more room than I had imagined so prepare plenty of space. Overall well balanced and sturdy. Very pleased. Took 16 days from the time I ordered it, to arrive to the store. Other than this, no problems whatsoever.

I am 240 lbs and used to exercise a lot. I had doubts that this product would not hold, shake or bend. Well, none of that. I am a happy camper.

We bought it for the P90X workout. It is well constructed. Heavy duty, sturdy. Like it better than more expensive ones. Color is graphite grey and black, like that. I notice the price fluctuates alot.
Purchased Nov 08, for 129 dollars. Great deal.

I shopped online for this product to find that WalMart beat every price around by a huge margin. There was a shipping problem due to an UPS mixup and no fault of WalMart. But due to the incovenience of the shipment WalMart gave me an additional discount on the already fantastic deal and I couldn't be happier.
The product is very sturdy. I weigh in at 196 and it can support me without a worry. Good product at a Great price.

I bought this for the P90X workout program. It is perfect for it. It has the pushup bars built in and the pullup bar is the main part of P90X. It doesn't wobble like some of these type units do. I you are in for a good old fashioned piece of workout equipment this will get you in better shape than any weight machine I have ever seen. That includes all of the gym machines.

Good product for the price. I was a little disappointed it don't have a foot-hold for crunches as it says it does and the dip arms are a little shaky. I wouldn't recomend dips if your over 200 lbs though.

Good Quality

This power tower is sturdy enough for I would say, 250lbs on the dip bars and 300-350lbs on the pullup bar. Parts were easily identified and individually packaged. Assembly takes 1-2 hours at a moderate pace. This is the best power tower I have found for the price range by a long shot. Anything else this sturdy is going to run you anywhere from $200-$300. As a matter of fact this unit retails for $200 on other sites. Highly recommended, great price. I deducted 1 star from expectations due to slight wobbles when 200+lb users engage the dipping unit. Even then it surely will not break and the user is not at any risk of injury, just a slight wobble.

I was shopping for different power towers. I visited both sports authority and academy looking for a good product. Sports Authority has nothing and service is bad. At academy the prducts in my price range were of bad quality. I went online to research weider products. I found the weider power tower.I went to different web sites for a price. Every site I went to was charging 199 and up for this product. So I logged on to walmart and found the same product for 122 I thought it was a mistake. So I bought it as quick as I could and it turned out it was on promo. I ordered it to the store which is a new service to me. Product arrived 1 week faster than noted on delivery page.Delivery was free and it was great service at the store. Associates even took item to my car for me. F.Y.I product is extremly
heavy and oversized so take a car with enough space. It took me 1 hour to build very easy and machine is solid. Does not move.I weigh 160. Great product.Great service.

I am not a goober girl...this is my wife's account.
This thing is sturdy and well built. I have been using it for about a month now and I love it. You won't find anything of this caliber anywhere near this price.
