Perfect Fitness Multi-Gym Doorway Pull Up Bar Elite4.6
2 sourcesall derived$70as of Oct 17The Perfect Fitness Multi-Gym Elite is an over-the-door pull-up bar rated to 300 lb, with padded neutral, wide and chin-up grips and rubber door bumpers; it also flips to the floor for push-ups, dips and sit-ups. GamerBody, after 30 days, called it the most stable doorway bar it had used and found the bumpers left no marks on the frame, and Chris Pinedo of Lean With Style likewise found it sturdy for pull-ups and kind to the door. Both found it weaker as a floor station: Pinedo said dips have very little range of motion, and GamerBody uses it only for pull-ups. It suits people who mainly want steady pull-ups on a door they care about; anyone wanting a real dip station should look elsewhere.
Strengths
- — GamerBody called it the most stable doorway bar it has used, even at 185 lb
- — Door bumpers left no marks or dents in either reviewer's door frame
- — Standard grips sit nine inches out from the wall, so hands clear the frame
Watch-outs
- — Dips on the floor have very little range of motion
- — At about 8 lb it is bulky to put up and take down often
- — Sit-up mode slipped on a hardwood floor in Chris Pinedo's test
