XMARK Dip Station, 500 lb. Weight Capacity Dip Stand, Gray or Black

Almost went with the slightly bigger and 2x priced Body Solid model, so glad I got my XMark ! Arrived quickly in 5 days via free shipping fed-ex in perfect condition. They really package this thing great, all done methodically and perfect, making it a breeze for me and one of our cats to put together in around 20 minutes. Especially like the pre-labled small parts blister pack, so you don't have to lose items or figure out what is what.I looked at a lot of reviews and researched a lot before going with the XMark. At 6'2 270ish I didn't want to break and buy again or have some wobbly garbage. This beauty makes me feel safe on it. It's VERY stable, and plenty of clearance. Large enough to handle all you need to with your movements and weight up to 400lbs., yet it doesn't take up a huge footprint. So glad I went with this instead of a power tower, as I now realize that the P.T. is not only bigger but you can't do the dip excercises as well as on a true dip station like this. And the handles are really comfy as other reviews have said. I didn't realize how important this is until use, as it enables me to do the excercises much easier and better than smaller and unpadded grips like on my gym's commercial power tower where I couldn't even do any dips at all on.So I got this not able to do even 1 dip and started with holds, and within a week I could knock out around 6-7 reps ! Since then I've had a few months and can do several sets of 2 types of dips and will soon need to add weight with a dip belt, which thankfully this baby can handle ! On this you can also do a modified pull-ups, and use to anchor for band pulls. I am so happy with the quality and comfort of the XMARK, a great lifetime investment for minimal cost.

This is a very heavy duty dip station. It weighs 55 lbs, it is simple to assemble, and it was delivered by FEDEX in a few days. Functionality is excellent with the taper, short side, and long side for different sized people. Exactly what I needed.

Very sturdy and easy to assemble. I'm 6'2 and it is perfect height.

I don’t write reviews too often, but I felt as though this product deserves it. I’m really impressed with this dip station and so glad I purchased this specific one. What a lot of people don’t realize when performing dips, is how important the width of the bars is. You want to try to get the bars as close to your shoulder width as possible for proper engagement of your triceps. This specific dip station has one of the narrowest bar setups I could find and it works fantastic. It’s very solid, yet light enough to move around and has no “wiggle” when performing dips. You can perform dips from either side and the bars slightly curve out so you can go more narrow or wider if you prefer. The one thing to note when initially building (which is very easy and straightforward) is which direction the cross bar goes. You want to make sure the logo is facing the shorter side of the bars. If you look at the pictures I attached, that’s the front (no logo). The directions never mentioned this, not a big deal but something to note. Overall, I’m extremely satisfied with this purchase and would highly recommend it!

I've used dip bars in gyms both at work and a local Gold's. They are a great tool, and having one at home is something I've always wanted. I'd been looking at various models for years, but never committed due to uncertainties about the product. Reviews were never consistently positive. Once I stumbled on to the XMark I found a video online and decided to try it out. In the video compared to all of the other potential versions on Amazon, the XMark looked more stable. I have to say that when the package arrived, even before opening the box, I knew I probably made the right decision.The unit was packed very well in a nice box, similar to what you would get buying from a sports equipment store. The unboxing was easy, as was the assembly. As I was assembling the product I was impressed with the solid feel of all the individual parts. Once assembled the dip station was rock solid.For the price this dip station is an incredible value. There is a lot of steel here, and it is made to last. I own a few pieces of Nautilus brand equipment and this dip station is every bit as strong as my other pieces. The gray matches our Pacemaster treadmill perfectly.The finish is very good durable, and flaws in the paint and welds are extremely minimal and only an anal person like myself would even notice them!The height is rather tall (I'm 5 foot 9 inches), but using the center bar to step up to the hand rails works very well. The only improvement I could see to this dip station is adding a non slip pad to the center bar as it will be used as a step for most individuals.Rock solid dip station and an incredible value for the solid, commercial-like build.I highly recommend this for anyone who has a home gym in need of a dip station, or for anyone looking to add a dips to their workouts.
