The materials used to construct this bar are high quality. The mat in the photo hides the major defect of the item: it does not come with stabilizing struts at all. The bar (at the top) is the only item holding the two bases together. If you purchase the extension kit for an additional $100 plus $40 for shipping then you will receive the stabilizing struts along with the leg extenders.

Even with this one complaint, I would advise someone looking for a bar to purchase this piece of equipment. The base is solid, higher-gauge steel and is designed to be sturdy (see the braces on the side of the posts). The bar itself can easily support all members of the family without showing the slightest bit of comprimise (not that we, the parents, perform skills on it, but we've both goofed around on it).

Adjusting it is simple enough, although a bit tedious. We assumed that this used a snap-lock system, but it is a screw-in and unscrew method. Definitely easy to use,... Read more

My daughter loves this bar...very similar to our gymnastics club with not as much give. My daughter is able to adjust the bar by herself and is fairly stable. I would recommend the expanders if your child is doing level 4 and above skills

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for simple practice, February 14, 2012

This review is from: Gymnastics Expandable Junior Training Bar (Misc.)
I bought this bar for my 8-year-old daughter for Christmas because she was having trouble with her front hip circle. She weighs a little over 50 pounds, so the bar is fine for front hip circles, but we found it's not so stable for back hip circles. She also needs to work on her mill circle, but I'm not comfortable with her trying it on this bar yet. If I stand on the floor support, she can do back hip circles and probably the mill circle.

I will add that my daughter absolutely loves it and is on it nearly every morning before school.
