Lebert Fitness Parallettes Push Up Dip Stand

First, let me state that I was not invited to review this item like the 10 other reviews on here. I actually purchased the parallettes to add more dynamic body weight workouts to my routine. These oarallettes are built like a tank. They will NEVER break on you. I am 5’10 and weigh 195lbs and I feel very comfortable working on these parallettes. I know they won’t give out on me. They were very easy to put together, took me about 10 minutes. Before purchasing this item I did my research and shopped around varying brands, some cheaper and some much more expensive. Ultimately I went with these parallettes because I trust the Lebert Fitness brand ( I also own a pair of xl EQuilizers). You seriously get your money’s worth. I highly recommend these parallettes if you are looking to start some serious body weighted strength training. I get a better workout using the parallettes then at the gym.

Their attractive finish allows you to stick them in the corner of your room and not hide them. They feel sturdy and are light (five pounds each). For the chrome version you are paying them $20 on average for 1. not getting the worker bee yellow color & 2. what should be an attractive-looking upgrade.That sounds great but the finish doesn’t seem as professional as a smooth chromed-over piece of furniture like my kitchen stool (as pictured). They look more like somebody took a not-completely-smooth piece of stainless steel and coated it. There are also some blemishes out of the box despite good wrapping. The grip/handle really disappointed me because there are striations/indentations in the handle that seem to be impressions from the tightly packed ties around the bubble wrap it came in (as pictured). Commercial gyms would choose a different more resilient rubber, of which, doesn’t take the shape of anything and can’t be picked at. The rubber feet slide when used in very wide positions or if you want to fully extend yourself on hardwood floors. True commercial grade feet would not be able to slide (look up Rogue Bolted Parallettes).This is a beautiful product from five-feet away. I implore the seller to ship a new version that has these issues addressed. I suggest that the seller offer a black option at the same price as the yellow ones. Currently the seller is offering half-baked chrome or taxi cab yellow. If they don’t want to change the grip rubber-type, body coating integrity and non-slip feet then you should value this item in a lower price bracket.

These are fantastic, I love bringing parallettes into my regime. They are height adjustable (2 sizes) by about one inch and come with several extra screws. My only complaint is that they lack traction on the bottom, so if you do anything like wide push ups, wide handstands, wide L-sits, they will not stay put without an influencing variable.

This are sturdy and heavy. The bases are wide so it doesn't really move. My kids love these. I don't have the easy time I thought I would with them, apparently I need to work out a little more 1st. Compared to other parallettes I think these are a good deal and good for beginners.

I have found these to be well built and sturdy. The grip area is rubberized so ones hands do not slip. Once positioned the bars do not move.

Overall I am very happy with this set. I really wanted the rougue parallettes but couldn't justify the price. When I saw these I thought I would give them a shot and am happy I did. My only concern was the grip which seems like it will last awhile. The other things is the plastic caps that act as grip on the floor do not grip great so I will have to figure something for that. But overall I like the look and feel and will continue to use them.

I can't believe I'm the first one to review these bad boys. These things are built like little tanks. I had originally bought the jfit pros and had to return them because a poor weld. Those felt like a child's toy compared to these. These may be double the price but they're double the quality. Trust me, if you plan on using them regularly and want something that will last, get these. They're high quality and super stable. The pic gives you a reference of how much bigger these are than the jfits

I was skeptical of how sturdy these would be, but I was pleasantly surprised. It comes with locking washers so it's not apt to come apart on you. I got the yellow one, (even though I love Frank Medrano). The one thing I would suggest is to have an alcohol bath or rag handy when you assemble. The screws are bathed in oil.
