This bar is much sturdier than it looks in the pictures. I was expecting it to have some wiggle to it and perhaps not fit together well, but this thing is solid. As a full grown adult male I could put my weight on it and it didn't wobble hardly at all. For a kid this will be very sturdy. I do question if some of the areas where the polls connect and screw together will hold as still over time, but that can be remedied even if it does develop some wiggle. It does have a bit more sway the higher you raise the bar, but I still don't see it affecting a kids balance much. It has pads on all of the main areas that come into contact with the floor which will both save your floors and keep this from sliding on a slick surface. It also comes with rings which is a nice bonus. You have to raise the bar higher to use them, but if you have a little monkey they'll appreciate having the ability to swing using both the bar and the rings. The rings and straps are also really good quality for this price point. My favorite aspect is it folds up! I've looked at a lot of these bars over the past 6 months or so and my one hang up about purchasing one is I don't have the space for a gymnastics set up in the house (not many of us do). So as a parent I appreciate the ability to stick this to the side when it's not in use. It's not difficult to fold either. There's a knob that allows the vertical bar to be pulled up and then it collapses with hinges similar to how a ladder folds up.

This gymnastics bar was a hit with all three of my girls. Setup was surprisingly easy and the instructions were clear which is rare. I love that the height adjusts smoothly so each of them can use it comfortably.
The quality feels solid and safe even with lots of climbing and swinging. They’re obsessed with the added handles and use them to swing like little monkeys.

We just received this in the mail for my daughter’s 9th birthday. It was super easy to put together and my daughter is loving it so far!

I have two very active little boys. They are constantly needing to get out energy and since we homeschool, I like to have options at home if we cant get to a park. This is a perfect piece to add to our small playroom. Love that it comes in blue! Was very easy to put together (one hole was manufactured wrong for the thread, but we make shifted it for now, easy fix) and it was packaged very nicely. The mat is slightly on the thinner side I guess, but we have carpet so it's perfect in our case. I also love how easy everything can be folded up when not in use. I highly recommend this.

This was a gift to my granddaughter to practice her gymnastics. She absolutely loved it!
