My husband and I use this almost daily for a few minutes. It is sturdy and well-built, but the model sent was not the one pictured. A different brand has been substituted and the color scheme is grey, black, and orange (the orange is a little tacky - even though I'm a VT fan and it's one of our colors) and the foam pads are not memory foam as was described with the Reebok model pictured. Still, it works well and once assembled (set aside a good 2 hours to do this) it's pretty easy to use and we both enjoy using it to decompress after a long day.

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

A bulging disk in my L4-L5 region was causing constant pain and made walking difficult. After researching treatment options I purchased an inversion table in May 2006. After 3 days of 3 ten minute sessions daily I was pain free. I continued using it for ten minute sessions on an almost daily basis for maintenance. That table was recalled in November 2007 and I was reluctant to return it until I discovered this item. It took about three hours to assemble and I needed assistance with parts of the assembly. This item is constructed so much better than the one that I returned. The box it arrived in was badly beaten up and I expected damage inside. However, it was so well packed that except for some minor scrapes on the metal parts, everything was in good condition. I would recommend this table to anyone with disk problems.

Requires two people to put together and it takes some time and patience, but once you get it built it works great and it is a far beefier in construction than cheaper models. It gives your spine and muscles a well needed stretching. Great after working out.

Overall, pretty good
By GMVerified Reviewer from Phila PA on 10/22/2007
Pros:
Fun
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

While overall most of the parts and the bench as a whole are very sturdy, some of the plastic pieces break extremely easily. The handle on the side that adjust the inversion degree was broken when it arrived and many of the pieces completely shattered when being put on. Even with that, though, it works well. [...]
