IMO, not worth it if you're going for the dip attachment also The chin up attachment itself is fine; I'm 5'11 and weigh about 220lbs, and I have no issues with stability or wobbling. However, if you're thinking about buying this and the dip attachments with the Superbench to save money and space vs a power tower, consider the following ... This attachment is $85 and the dip attachment is $55, which equals out to $140. You could get a decent power tower for that price, and you wouldn't have to always swap out the attachments, which is especially handy for the chin up bar, because it is very long and top-heavy, and a bit of a PITA to get on and off. Speaking of long, the chin up bar is about as long as the Superbench is and is wider as well, so I'm not sure why other reviewers say that it takes no additional space, unless their chin up bars are being sucked up by a black hole when not in use :P Thus, although this plus the dip attachment may take up a little less room than a power tower would, the amount of space I saved wasn't as much as I thought it would be, due to the chin up bar being as big as it is. As for me, I just moved into a new place and purchasing a power rack which has a chin up bar built in, so I sold the Superbench chin up bar and keeping the dip attachment. Posted on Amazon.com

I've given away all of my other chin up bars. If you wanted to do kipping chins or swings of any type, you'd need more stability & more lateral clearance, but for straight-up-&-down chins & pulls, this is a great convenience: More stable & higher off the ground than all but the best doorway bars, plus it's portable, & takes up no additional space, as it's attached to a (great) bench that I needed anyway.

Great addition to the bench Great attachment... easy to install and reasonably stable. It has a nice rubbery material on the bar that provides for a comfortable grip without being too spongy. Posted on Amazon.com

Stable, excellent attachment for Superbench My concern when purchasing this attachment was its stability - would it wobble while I was doing pull ups/chin ups? I am 185 lbs and am glad to say it is stable. I live in an apartment, so I don't have room for both a bench and more expensive power tower, but I did want something a bit more robust than the removable/portable door jam bar I had been using. This attachment fits the bill perfectly. In fact, I find the whole line of Ironmaster products (I own the Quicklock Dumbbells , Super Bench , Super Bench situp attachment , Super Bench dip attachment , and this chin up attachment) to be a good solution for someone who wants a versatile, durable, yet compact home gym. My one complaint with the chin up attachment is that it is very tall/long and top heavy so you have to be careful when attaching/removing it from the super bench. I don't really consider this a design flaw of the attachment, though, it's just the nature of the item. Posted on Amazon.com

Works great I purchased the chin-up bar, along with many other attachments for my Superbench. I love not having to purchase a separate machine to do pull-ups. It is height adjustable, so even I can reach it from the floor and I am only 5'3". I don't typically do chin-ups without help from a gravitron or something similar, so I use a step stool and use my legs to help when needed. I'm sure I'll grow stronger and not need the step stool soon. Also being a short female slightly over 100 lbs,I have to be very careful when installing and removing the chin-up attachment. The attachment is very good quality metal, and is top heavy....so installing and removing is a minor workout for me. Update March 27,2009. I now install the attachment while the bench is flat, rather than raised. Installing the attachment is now a breeze.
