Garren Fitness Maximiza Pull Up Bar review

Garren Fitness's Maximiza is a simple doorway bar whose main draw is its three sets of screw-in door mounts. With mounts installed in several frames, you can move the bar between rooms or set it at different heights. The heavy-duty chrome steel bar adjusts to standard doorways between 27 and 39 inches, and a separate Maximiza PLUS model takes doors wider than 35 inches. Non-slip extra-long foam grips cover the bar, and Garren lists pull-ups, chin-ups, hanging leg raises, push-ups, sit-ups and crunches as uses. Garren's safety note says to always install and use the supplied screw-in brackets, so this is not a no-drill bar. We rank it last because Garren's own website shows no price, sending buyers to Amazon instead, and the product page does not state a weight capacity. Buyers who want a stated rating should choose the Sunny NO. 025 at 220 lb or the Ultimate Body Press XL at 300 lb.
