the 15wt. bands are a bit thin so they kinda twist and miss behave but they are still useful, i mounted this to my way w/ a couple 2x4s (prob. not recommended, but it works). my buddy likes using it even more than i do and it allows me to do some workouts that arnt possible w/ freeweights, w/o having to by a huge cable machine, the bands behave slightly different than a cable machine though. it has a good name behind it (weider) and the included dvds are pretty cool, not cheesy like i was expecting

The product is a great concept. Easy to use and very useful for circuit training since alternating between different exercises is easy to do. Besides the setup problems, what I am most disappointed with is the lack of resistance. It claims to offer 210 lbs of resistance but compared to the Tower 200, it doesn't add up. Basically the resistance bands aren't as resistant as they claim them to be. Recommend to beginners or those not interested in heavy resistance.

Comments about Weider X-Factor Door Gym:

I purchased this product not even a year ago and it has broke on me. As a student, I don't have much time to work out. I used it twice when I first bought it, just to make sure it was something that I liked. So I kept it around until I had time to use it this summer doing the p90x challenge, and the darn thing breaks on me. One of the pulleys broke and comes flying upward, narrowly missing my face. The ends of each band have a thick plastic clip that would've really hurt, or done some major damage, had it gotten me. I weigh 178lbs, I'm sure it was not me that caused this thing to break.

        It's set up on the door was easy. However, I was unable to close the door where I just installed it. I tried the X-factor on numerous doors in my house and was unable to close any of them. I can't wait to try it out. As soon as I build a support frame for a door in my basement. Seems like a great concept. Not a perfect concept.

          Comments about Weider X-Factor Door Gym:

          I got x factor for my Birthday. I use freeweights but since I have put this on the small garage door I have not used my free weights. I use this Monday thru Friday I work out my entire body. It is easy to use because you dont have to move free weight around it is a matter of changing clips. You can even add another band for more weight. oh and the weight it has is plenty to get a great workout and pump. I have not found ahything wrong with it yet.

          Comments about Weider X-Factor Door Gym:

          First off, it may be difficult to find a door in your house that it fits on. You need at least 1/8" clearance on all 4 sides and that may be a problem for a lot of people.
          Assuming you can get it to fit, it is a very nice product! Plenty of resistance and different exercises to choose from. It feels sturdy enough. The 3 Workout DVDs are great (even though they overlap in exercises).
          As always, you will need to eat a proper diet...Doing that and using this exercise equipment on a regular basis should practically guarantee results.

            I barely make it to the gym and this unit is almost as good as if I was using the cable system at my gym. I was surprised by how much I like it.

            I was looking forward to receiving this and very disappointed to find that it won't work on any door in my house-you can put it on the door but then the door won't shut.
