Editorial Reviews:

The simple device uses the weight of your body leveraged against the doorframe, and requires that you have a doorway with trim. You can also do deep push-ups with the Door Gym by placing it on the floor. NO FASTENERS REQUIRED. And when used properly it will not damage doorway and can be installed and removed in 1 second. Door Gym door size requirements: Face molding around door: minimum 1½" maximum 3½". Molding distance from wall: minimum ¼" maximum ¾". Wall thickness: minimum 4¼" maximum 6¼" (trim to trim). This DOOR GYM has been designed to fit residential (framed) doorways 24" to 32"(up to 45" with the extensions) and support up to 300 lbs. Ab loops and broad reach accessories sold separately. For use with wooden doors only.

Summary: Door gym review
Comment: The product arrived in less than a week. Pretty amazing considering I live in Germany. Works great. Would recommend to anyone. Thanks.

Summary: Good product
Comment: My 11 year old loves this. It's fun. She does it when she passes by. She couldn't do one in the beginning, but enjoyed building up slowly.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Simple and Effective
Comment: The door gym is sturdy, easy to put together, easy to put on your door frame, and doesn't move around. My only complaint and reason for 4 stars and not 5 is that you cannot adjust the position of the grips. Basically, you can't comfortably do all different kinds of pull-ups. It's a small gripe though, and a worthwhile product.

Summary: Door Gym Didn't Work For Me
Comment: Before ordering the Door Gym I confirmed the measurements of my doorway and trim met the requirements, which it did. The Door Gym construction was good, felt fairly sturdy, and the assembly was quick and simple. Although the Door Gym fit my doorway it would not stay in place and would keep sliding down the trim. The Door Gym needs some rubber pads on each side of the support bar to press against the trim when the user's weight is applied to prevent downward slippage. The included chinsey "safety hook" is more of a joke then a safety feature. It would most certainly rip out overhead doorway trim when the bar slips downward. I am a solid 190 lbs which is well in the support range for the Door Gym. My door trim is hard maple and I noticed a slight crunching sound while pressure was being gradually applied to the Door Gym during my attempt to hang from the bar. That was enough to convince me to stop using the Door Gym because I did not want to crack my trim or my dry wall. I returned the Door Gym and found an insane deal on the Proform Fusion 1.5 Power Tower
for 135.99 (total) which is an absolutely awesome product. The Proform Tower is construction of SUPER STURDY steel, doesn't flex and small enough to fit in a corner. I figured if I'm going to be serious about pull-ups I may as well buy good equipment.

Summary: Fantastic
Comment: Excellent product. Easy install, nothing to it. My only suggestion for improvement is to add soft padding in the middle of the bar to make it easier on the fingers to do close grip pull-ups and chin-ups. So I wrap a towel around the middle section. And get the extension bar, it is worth it.
